Summary of thomas page mcbee's amateur

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I spent a lot of time not knowing what to say when I was with other people, as a way to avoid talking about my transition. I was a historical anomaly, and it was a function of a wave of newfound goodwill toward trans people that I was able to live openly as a man with few negative consequences. #2 I was just another guy in expensive Nikes learning to hit other guys in the face, but the relationship between me and the coaches and fighters was classed. The economy between amateur boxers and white-collar guys was uneasy. #3 I was raised to fear men, and masculinity was epitomized by my stepfather, who began sexually abusing me when I was four years old. Decades later, when I first had to tell my mother that I was transgender, she didn't say men that way to me again. #4 I had grown out my hair since I last saw Chris, and now worked as Haymakers' de facto general counsel. I was introduced to my potential coach, Errol, a impeccably groomed, bald-headed black man.
