Where do we come from, who are we, and where are we going? To seek answers to these three questions means to engage with identity. Depending on our cultural and individual backgrounds, we arrive at very different answers. These answers also vary significantly when we describe the identity of a girl, a woman, or that of a boy, a man. This book presents various images of people against the backdrop of engaging with identity, illuminating entirely different facets of boys and girls as well as men and women. The critical reflection on these images does not lead to a final answer but rather highlights that the exploration of identity, including gender-specific considerations, eludes simple answers.
