Dear Cisgender People

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. Dear Cisgender People by Kenny Ethan Jones is a guide to being an ally, highlighting the experience of gender dysphoria and how Kenny navigates the Black and Trans communities.

What We Say: “As the first Trans man to front a period campaign, Kenny Ethan Jones has been challenging perceptions for a while now. In this deeply personal memoir, he unpacks the reality of living with gender dysphoria, the intersection of being Black and Trans, the complexities of accessing gender-affirming care and the debate around Trans youth. This is a book for anyone who wants to be a better ally and help create a safer and more accepting world for trans people everywhere” – Maria Padget
