ALL NEW Gender 101 Video: Episode 36: Gender Queer Panel Finale

Here's the finale of our Gender Queer panel, with Lucy (a.k.a. Benji), Nenu, Emmi and B J.



I was really moved by their eloquence, honesty and wisdom.

Let kids find their own place in our world.

Let people self-identify.

You don't have to be alone. Find your community.

Don't look for others for validation. Validate yourself.

And don't wait for what you need. Start it yourself!

Brilliant!

My thanks to all the panelists, and to you, for watching and learning along with me.

Gender 101 Episode 33 Redux: Benji, Nenu, Emmi and BJ on Being "Enough"

Benji (a.k.a. Lucy) continues the conversation about being Gender Queer, asking Nenu, Emmi and B J to discuss the concept of being "Enough," exploring situations where they confronted issues of being trans-enough, or enough of one gender or the other, when really just being themselves should be enough.



My thanks to Benji, Nenu, Emmi and B J for sharing, and just being themselves. Each one of you is enough, just as you are.

Are so are all of us.

Gender 101, Episode 30 Redux: B J on Role Models, Hiding and Healing

Benji (a.k.a. Lucy) continues the conversation about gender with B J. B J shares about their search for gender non-conforming Role Models, and their own journey.

It's a little longer than most of the Gender 101 videos at thirteen and a half minutes, but worth the time!



As B J said about doing this video,

"Even if one person finds something at all worth taking from it, it's worth it"

Absolutely.

Thank you B J, for sharing so honestly.
