Gender Queer: A Memoir - is a graphic memoir by Maia Kobabe. It tells about nonbinary adolescent’s sexual and gender non-binary experience and fantasies. The book met great controversy and legal issues on appropriateness of depicted sexual scenes, as it contained explicit youth sexuality scenes and some fantasies about sexual contact between minor and adult. The book got some prominent awards and some libraries included the book to the access list for adolescents. At the same time there was also censorship labeling book as pornographic or promoting pedophilia. So the memoir became illegal under some jurisdictions in the USA. The censorship was based not only on depiction of youth sexuality or pedophobia, but on LGBTphobia as well
