I'm giving a workshop at Gender Conference East on how to support students with non-binary gender.

I'll be presenting to professionals - people who run school systems and people who advise on how to support transgender students.

Do you have any suggestions for points I should make or issues I should highlight?

Diferences between transgender and transsexual, and gender queer. The differences between mtf and ftm and those inbetween.Also intersexuality. A brief history of ->-bleeped-<- in the u.s. and abroad. The most current research on it too. How this affects people from childhood to old age and are found worldwide and manifested culturally too. age Academic in nature is my style, but seeing the real thing, if it's you or somebody else should be good too. Have ready references or where peeps can look the stuff up.

That should make peeps think about the outside of the gender binary dichotomy.

PS, if its toward adults the above should generally apply, for kids or adolescents, age appropriate language should apply, sans references, unless you come across a pointdexter brainy type, then references are appropriate.[emoji4]
