Ellen Mellor had been female her entire life.

It just took her until she was 43 to finally realise it although she'd worked out that she was a geek at a far earlier age.

In Tea, Comics and Gender she recalls her life, showing all the events (or at least all the ones she can remember) where her true gender showed itself.

Tea, Comics and Gender is a funny, truthful, honest and intimate memoir of one woman growing up in the late twentieth century thinking she was first a boy and then a man before finally getting her act together.
