http://www.idsnews.com/news/story.aspx?id=72419At Willkie Quad's "Lost in Transition" program, issues of sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression were discussed by students, Barry MaGee, the assistant director for diversity educator for Residential Programs and Services and Rachael Jones, a transwoman who owns Bloomington's Rachael's Café.
At the program, participants watched segments of "Transamerica," a movie about a male-to-female transsexual who takes a roadtrip with her son. After watching the clips they discussed the issues pertinent in the movie. Both Jones and MaGee shared their personal experiences. MaGee talked about being a homosexual male and Jones spoke of being a transgendered woman.
