- Disappoint me : a novel / by Dinan, Nicola,author.;
""Fell down the stairs and woke up a trad wife." Max is thirty, a published poet and grossly overpaid legal counsel for a tech company. With a lifetime of dysphoria and fuccbois rattling around in her head, Max is plagued with a deep dissatisfaction during what should be the best years of her life. After taking a spill down the stairs at a New Year's Eve party, she decides to make some changes. First things first: a stab at good old-fashioned heteronormativity. Max thinks she's found the answer in Vincent, a corporate lawyer and hobby baker, whose trad friendship group may as well speak a foreign language, and whose Chinese parents never pictured their son dating a trans woman. This uncharted territory may have rough terrain, but Vincent cares for Max in a way she'd long given up on as a foolish fantasy. Yet Vincent is carrying his own baggage from his gap year in Thailand a decade prior: an explosive entanglement with a mysterious, gorgeous traveler. Voice-driven, warm, and poignant, Disappoint Me is an exploration of millennial angst, race, trans panic, and the allure of bourgeois domesticity that asks if we are defined by our worst mistakes"--- Subjects: Transgender fiction.; Queer fiction.; Romance fiction.; Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Dating (Social customs); Interpersonal relations; Transgender women; Transphobia;

Originally produced by First Run Features in 2023.In this longitudinal observation, director and social anthropologist Soňa Lutherová presents an intimate portrait of a family in which one of the parents is transitioning. People who knew "R" perceived her as a happy woman. A Czech woman in her thirties, she moved to Sweden with her husband, psychiatrist Ivan. In their new country, the young couple bought a house and had two children. It seemed that their lives would continue in a predictable way. As a distraction from the routine, "R" chose an unusual hobby: she created a male alter-ego and started writing novels for LGBTQ+ audiences. "R" was happy but felt empty on the inside. She could only fill it by living out her true self. Things started speeding up and "R" began changing. "R" is now Marvin. And Marvin is a man. A HAPPY MAN tells an intimate story about a transgender man and his family. It encourages the viewers to consider different existential connections that concern each and every one of us.Mode of access: World Wide Web.- Subjects: Documentary films.; Social sciences.; Gender identity.; Homosexuality.; Documentary films.; LGBTQ.;

- Really cute people / by Harwood-Jones, Markus,1991-author.;
"Charlie Dee is headed for burnout. They've been burned before, both by their bio family and the now-defunct queer collective they once called home. So when they're asked to take a work trip outside the city, they jump at the chance. Sure, it's additional work with no additional pay, but it's also an excuse to get out of town, and out of their own head. That dream is shattered when Charlie opens the door to their supposedly private rental. There's a bird on the loose, circling the living room as it's chased by a cat, who is chased by a small child. The girl's parents, Hayden and Buffy, only manage to add to the chaos. They promise to leave first thing in the morning, but when a massive snowstorm rolls in, this overnight trip becomes a weeklong affair. Reluctantly charmed by this unfiltered, if forced, look at a loving, healthy family, Charlie begins to develop feelings for both Hayden and Buffy. And they both seem to be flirting back. But when a potential promotion lures Charlie back to the city, all three will have to decide where they go from here, and what it means to truly feel at home."--- Subjects: Romance fiction.; Gay fiction.; Genderqueer fiction.; Queer fiction.; Novels.; Burn out (Psychology); Business travel; Families; Gender-nonconforming people; Mental health personnel; Non-monogamous relationships; Rental housing; Sexual minorities; Transgender men; Triangles (Interpersonal relations);
