I have read a number of books related to eunuch/gender identity issues, LGBTQIA+, and kink – and a number of them have made their way onto this blog in the form of “book reviews” (I use the term lightly, since often they end up being a means of exploring myself).
It has occurred to me that at least some of them might be useful resources for our eunuch wiki (https://eunuchfriends.miraheze.org/).
So I invite friends and followers to submit suggestions for inclusion in our community wiki!
Nonfiction books already being worked on or included are:
- 50 LGBTQ+ Finds (Ben Paites)
- Castrated (Gary Taylor)

I have not included books on neurodivergence, as I feel that departs too far from the purpose of the Eunuch Friends wiki – though I’m always open to suggestions!
