Breaking out of Binaries:  Reconceptualizing Gender and its Relationship to Language in Computer-Mediated Communication - by  Michelle Rodino. Facets - An Introduction to Dress and Gender: "Although the concept of multiple genders may seem alien to some cultures that lack the linguistic capacity to describe them, in many societies this is not the case. But are gender categories even necessary? Why must one become a fa'afafine in order to perform "women's work"? What is "women's work"? "Men's work"? Are words such as transgender, transsexual, transvestite, hermaphrodite and berdache accurate descriptions of who we are? Or are they just convenient (or in some cases, derogatory) categories for containing the unknown?" - Policy: Equitable Child Welfare Services Relating to Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity/Expression (Children's Aid Society of Toronyo): Backgrounder on Gender Diversity.

Androgyny and Gender Dialetics: "One of the biggest and most prevalent mistakes in Western Culture is the idea that there exist two separate and "opposite" genders, masculinity and femininity. This gender dualism is not only false and without any factual or scientific support, but also very harmful. One strategy to overcome this wrongness is the idea of androgyny, by which masculinity and femininity are not conceived as opposite ends of one spectrum, but as two separate spectrums: you can be or have both at once (or neither), not only the one or the other." - What is Gender? - Swinburne's Philosophy of Androgyny. - Androgyne: The Union of Opposites Within. - The Amazon Connection. - Gender Gallery.

Culture, sexual lifeways, and developmental subjectivities: rethinking sexual taxonomies (Social Research): "In the twenty years since the first English translation of Foucault's (1980[1978]) History of Sexuality, Volume 1, sexual categories have become conceptually and ideologically suspect. Building on Foucault's post-structural critique of sexual ideas and discourses, lesbian, gay, and feminist theorists have repeatedly contested the essential, intrinsic, or universal character of sexual identities." - Is Gender Identity Disorder in Children a Mental Disorder? (Sex Roles) "Because of flaws in the DSM-IV definition of mental disorder, and limitations of the current research base, there is insufficient evidence to make any conclusive statement regarding children who experience discomfort with their biological sex. The concluding recommendation is that, given current knowledge, the diagnostic category of GID in children in its current form should not appear in future editions of the DSM."

Gender Identity Disorder in Adolescence: Outcomes of Psychotherapy (Adolescence, Summer 1999). - Adolescents With Gender Identity Disorder Who Were Accepted or Rejected for Sex Reassignment Surgery: A Prospective Follow-up Study (Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry). - Forcing Boys to Be Boys: the persecution of gender non-conforming youth - April, 2001 - by Patience W. Crozier, Boston College Third World Law Journal, 21(1): "Part III discusses how the state reinforces gender borders through the legal system by punishing gender transgressions and supporting parental and medical efforts to pathologize gender non-conforming children... Gender Non-Conforming Youth in Schools: Both Invisible and Targeted by the Enforcement of a Binary Gender Model... Profound and enduring change in how gender should be viewed and how difference should be respected will not occur without major alterations to what society teaches children."

In so doing he published many false accusations about me. Apparently his writings had no editorial or fact checking. Nevertheless, there are too many unfounded assertions to let matters lie...." Book Reviews: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. - Boy raised as a girl suffered final indignity (2004): "Most of David Reimer's tragedies have been well-documented: how his penis was burned off during a botched circumcision, how doctors tried surgery and hormones to make him a girl and how the experiment went horribly wrong. But only his friends knew the 38-year-old Winnipegger was agonizing over yet another personal catastrophe in the months before he committed suicide last week. - Why did David Reimer commit suicide? - By John Colapinto. - The Death of David Reimer: A Case Study in Psychiatric Politics.

Plastic Man: Gender, Genitals and Scientific Humanism (PDF Download): This is a summary of the plenary lecture delivered on 25 October 2006 at Thinking Through Gender and Science, a workshop at Queen’s University Belfast’s Gender Research Forum, which will be published in a different and longer form as ‘Plastic Man: Intersex, Humanism and the Reimer Case’, in Neil Badmington (ed.), Posthuman Conditions, a special issue of Subject Matters (forthcoming 2007)..." - He/She/Thee/Me and How We Came to Be: " Last summer I read a very interesting book called As Nature Made Him: The Boy Who Was Raised as a Girl... in the case and I began to research it on the web. If the book had raised many questions in my mind about issues of nurture versus nature, of sexuality and gender, my research raised many more. But, perhaps the most interesting questions were those raised by the case of hermaphroditism, or intersexuality. By exploring what I thought were extreme cases of sexual ambiguity, I discovered that there are plenty of opportunities in biological sexual development for the lines that divide male and female to become blurred, and still be considered normal..." - Is gender a social construct or a biological imperative? - Who Abused Jane Doe? (PDF Download): Case histories make contributions to science and practice, but they can also be highly misleading... Our analysis raises several general questions about the use of case histories in science, medicine, and mental health. There is a cautionary tale not only for those professionals who advance the case history, but also for those who base their theories on it or would readily accept it as proof..."

Discrimination / Abuses / Murders / Legal Issues

Latino Commission on AIDS: "The transgender community has been among the most affected communities when it comes to HIV/AIDS but we are often disregarded in the rush to address how AIDS impacts a specific community,” said Nora Molina, a Latina transsexual activist in a sentiment also shared by other participants.  “This is particularly neglectful considering that there is also no funding for research on HIV/AIDS in transgender or transsexual communities of color,” she added. - Being Transgender in the Latino Culture. - Latino AIDS Agency Evicted Because Transgender Clients Used ‘Wrong’ Bathroom, ACLU Charges in NY Lawsuit.

Just before New Year's Eve, Vianna Faye Williams, a 36-year-old preoperative transsexual in Jersey City, N.J., was stabbed nine times in her back, neck, and chest. In January, Donald Fuller, an 18-year-old cross-dresser who went by the name Lauryn Paige, was found stabbed with his throat cut in a patch of woods in Austin. In February, Houston police reported that an unknown man wearing women's clothing was shot several times in a motel parking lot.

Review For Three Films (2009): The Aggressives. Directed by Daniel Peddle. Los Angeles: Seventh Art Releasing, 2005. Black and White. Directed by Kirsty MacDonald. New York: Women Make Movies, 2006.  Boy I Am. Directed by Sam Feder and Julie Hollar. New York: Women Make Movies, 2006... Each film provides complex representations of the experiences of gender-non-conforming, transgender, and intersex people in the United States and globally.  These films, when coupled with critical writing can begin rich conversations for the feminist classroom interested in interrogating the political, cultural, and visual dynamics of gender.  Far exceeding a “census model of gender designation,” The Aggressives, Boy I Am, and Black and White offer viable inroads to discussions on the varied landscape of gender as lived practice.
