THE NATIONAL BESTSELLER

"Transformative ... If Tobia aspires to the ranks of comic memoirists like David Sedaris and Mindy Kaling, Sissy succeeds." --The New York Times Book Review (A Paperback Row Pick)

A heart-wrenching, eye-opening, and giggle-inducing memoir about what it's like to grow up not sure if you're (a) a boy, (b) a girl, (c) something in between, or (d) all of the above.

"A beautiful book . . . honest and funny."--Trevor Noah, The Daily Show
"Sensational."--Tyler Oakley
"Jacob Tobia is a force." --Good Morning America
"A trans Nora Ephron . . . both honest and didactic." --OUT Magazine
"A rallying cry for anyone who's ever felt like they don't belong." --Woman's Day

As a young child in North Carolina, Jacob Tobia wasn't the wrong gender, they just had too much of the stuff. Barbies? Yes. Playing with bugs? Absolutely. Getting muddy? Please. Princess dresses? You betcha. Jacob wanted it all, but because they were "a boy," they were told they could only have the masculine half. Acting feminine labelled them "a sissy" and brought social isolation.

It took Jacob years to discover that being "a sissy" isn't something to be ashamed of. It's a source of pride. Following Jacob through bullying and beauty contests, from Duke University to the United Nations to the podiums of the Methodist church--not to mention the parlors of the White House--this unforgettable memoir contains multitudes. A deeply personal story of trauma and healing, a powerful reflection on gender and self-acceptance, and a hilarious guidebook for wearing tacky clip-on earrings in today's world, Sissy guarantees you'll never think about gender--both other people's and your own--the same way again.

Great fit
Size: 38DDD, Color: French Blue Lace
I first ordered this bra about 3 years ago. You know how us woman are we have more than one bra and more than one style of bra. This one style is the one I mostly reached out for. Then I went and lost around 45 pounds and it just didn't fit right any more. I went to to one of those "Bra Stores" and tried on a bunch of different bras none felt like it fit right so I came home and "measured" myself and I ordered a pretty blue one from comfort choice. My old bra was a 42G my new size is 38DDD. It fit so well I ordered 2 more. Light grey and pretty pink. I love these they are very comfortable and they hold the girls in place! Me I'm 67 5'3" and 165lbs.

Nice support but...
Size: 42DDD, Color: Black
I ordered this for my cousin who finds it very difficult to find bras in her size. She told me she wished she could find a good support bra without the wire because she had deep red marks under her old bra so I did some research and found this bra. She came over and tried it on and my first impression was WOW the support is great but it was very difficult for her to fasten all the hooks in the front due to her long nails. After some time she managed to fasten all the hooks and I noticed I needed to adjust the straps for her and she said it felt a lot better. This wireless bra looks so different on a woman with large breasts than the models in the picture, my cousin's cleavage was very substantial, unlike the model in the pic so if you are heavy set with large breasts, just know you will still have ample cleavage showing. After she put her top back on I noticed just how smooth her back looked, there were no bulges showing and she told me she felt like her posture was better due to the support of this bra. I have four stars due to the hooks being difficult to fasten.
