《厌女》不是一部纯理论性著作，而是运用女性主义理论针对日本当代的各种社会现象的实践性分析。《厌女》处理了广泛的日本题材，其中既有文学性的，比如谈到小说家吉行淳之介、永井荷风、林真理子等，更多的则是社会性的。上野千鹤子谈到的许多现象，尤其是家庭的、婚姻的，在中国也有很类似的情况。知性的读者会从这些论述中获得强烈共鸣并得到理论上的指引。

The all-female Takarazuka Revue is world-famous today for its rococo musical productions, including gender-bending love stories, torridly romantic liaisons in foreign settings, and fanatically devoted fans. But that is only a small part of its complicated and complicit performance history. In this sophisticated and historically grounded analysis, anthropologist Jennifer Robertson draws from over a decade of fieldwork and archival research to explore how the Revue illuminates discourses of sexual politics, nationalism, imperialism, and popular culture in twentieth-century Japan. The Revue was founded in 1913 as a novel counterpart to the all-male Kabuki theater. Tracing the contradictory meanings of Takarazuka productions over time, with special attention to the World War II period, Robertson illuminates the intricate web of relationships among managers, directors, actors, fans, and social critics, whose clashes and compromises textured the theater and the wider society in colorful and complex ways. Using Takarazuka as a key to understanding the "logic" of everyday life in Japan and placing the Revue squarely in its own social, historical, and cultural context, she challenges both the stereotypes of "the Japanese" and the Eurocentric notions of gender performance and sexuality.

《趣味考据:中国古代同性恋图考》讲述了双性恋也即男女皆恋，古代的同性恋基本上都是表现为此种形态。究其原因，古代社会是一个宗法社会，男性娶妻生子是他自立于世的前提条件，婚必须要结的。同时，古代社会还有两个突出的特征，一是等级身份制，高低贵贱，判然有别。二是男权夫权制，男女异势，夫为妻纲。其结果，一方面在上的等级可以比较容易地从在下等级中收取男宠，另一方面丈夫的妻妾对此无力加以反对。这样一来，双性恋的实践在古代中国也就有了适宜的存在环境，是处于一种比较兴盛的状态。可看前后两个朝代的情形：在西汉时期，从高祖到平帝，十一位皇帝中七位明确地喜好男色，三位稍有表现，最后一位未长成人。同性恋也即双性恋的比例如此之高，社会上的状况可想而知。而在清代，北京实行比较严格的禁妓政策，相公男优便在某种意义上充当了娼妓的角色。相公的恩客群体含括了各色人等，如官员、胥吏、富商、纨绔。尤其各省的进京举人对他们特加青睐，每当春试之年，韩家潭一带的燕舞莺歌宛若明代秦淮艳景的再现。

Wait—what’s wrong with rights? Much of the legal advocacy for trans and gender nonconforming people in the US has reflected the civil rights and "equality" strategies of mainstream gay and lesbian organizations—agitating for legal reforms that would ostensibly guarantee equal access, nondiscrimination, and equal protection under the law. This approach assumes that the state and its legal, policing, and social services apparatus—even its policies and documents of belonging and non-belonging—are neutral and benevolent. While we all have to comply with the gender binaries set forth by regulatory bodies of law and administration, many trans people, especially the most marginalized, are even more at risk for poverty, violence, and premature death by virtue of those same "neutral" legal structures. Normal Life: Administrative Violence, Critical Trans Politics, and the Limits of Law raises revelatory critiques of the current strategies pivoting solely on a "legal rights framework," but also points to examples of an organized grassroots trans movement that is demanding the most essential of legal reforms in addition to making more comprehensive interventions into dangerous systems of repression—and the administrative violence that ultimately determines our life chances. Setting forth a politic that goes beyond the quest for mere legal inclusion, Normal Life is an urgent call for justice and trans liberation, and the radical transformations it will require. An attorney, educator, and trans activist, Dean Spade has taught classes on sexual orientation, gender identity, poverty and law at the City University of New York (CUNY), Seattle University, Columbia University, and Harvard. In 2002 he founded the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, a collective that provides free legal services and works to build trans resistance rooted in racial and economic justice.

Since its publication in 1990, Gender Trouble has become one of the key works of contemporary feminist theory, and an essential work for anyone interested in the study of gender, queer theory, or the politics of sexuality in culture. This is the text where Judith Butler began to advance the ideas that would go on to take life as "performativity theory," as well as some of the first articulations of the possibility for subversive gender practices, and she writes in her preface to the 10th anniversary edition released in 1999 that one point of Gender Trouble was "not to prescribe a new gendered way of life [...] but to open up the field of possibility for gender [...]" Widely taught, and widely debated, Gender Trouble continues to offer a powerful critique of heteronormativity and of the function of gender in the modern world.
