Gay, Straight, [Fill in the Blank] {Editorial}

[LostInTime]

The New York Blade

Rejecting the idea that one must pick as side, these students embraced a more fluid understanding of sexuality and gender. They specifically spoke against a "binary" system of identification: an either/or construct.

They apply this not only to sexuality (i.e., gay or straight) but also to gender (male or female). "Gender queer" is the phrase that pops up more and more in conversation and in written word in regards to people who don't fit the prescribed notions of masculinity and femininity. This is not to be confused with transsexual. But it is confusing, right?
