A podcast from ABC Radio National (that you can download too!) about the issues surrounding and leading up to a physical change of gender. It’s really nice to see FTM peeps included too!
The interview features Julie Peters, Craig Andrews and Fintan Harte, of the Victoria based Southern Health Gender Clinic.
Note: while the peeps in the audio are transgendered, their journeys do relate to those of gender-questioning and genderqueer peeps.
Dean Beck interviews Southern Health Care Network Gender Clinic director Fintan Harte about his involvement with helping the gender diverse population of Victoria.
He goes into detail about how much diversity there is in gender and that the team he leads does support those who are questioning their gender and who identify as genderqueer.
Self harm is a unspoken issue in the LGBTIQ community, this video is meant to help break down the stigma and explain the reasons why people do it. Dr. George Forgan-Smith speaks about self-harm, what it is, why people do it, and how to work through it.
The trans student equality site has a great set of infographics for use by sex and gender diverse peeps (that is, gender-questioning, genderqueer AND trans people).
Print them out and post them anywhere you can – they’re brilliant!
In 2012, the IDAHO (International Day Against HOmophbia and transphobia) flashmob was photographed by Travis De Jonk and posted on the website SameSame.com
The theme this year was balloons, and the organiser picked green ones to signify genderqueer people who are discriminated against.
The participants joined hands at Flinders street station, and walked through the city to their destination, the Melbourne Library, where they released the balloons.
Fab local artist Rose has created some lovely stick figure drawings for GQA and the slowly expanding set is displayed below for your visual edification!
