"Transgender Basics
by Rosa Juel Nordentoft
Transgender Basics is a 20 minute educational film on the concepts of gender and transgender people.
Two providers from the Gender Identity Project discuss basic concepts of gender - sex, identity and gender roles - as three transgender community members share their personal experiences of being trans and genderqueer.
The film targets service providers and others working with the LGBT community, but it also provides a fascinating glimpse into gender and identity for the general public."
Check out the film on The Center's website. I am interning with The Center for school right now. I know the kick ass creator of this project and highly recommend it. It explains a lot and is good for those who do not have a solid background on gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, or for those who want to know about the trans experience.

Hi and Happy New Year to ya!
I am totally telling my son about this. He was an intern at a place called LYRIC in San Francisco. My first visit up there he told me about the sad plight and confusion of being transgender. I could hear in his voice how he was in a kind of serious wonder. He's growing up So Fast!
Happy New Year to you too!
I have heard of LYRIC, they rock. They tend to do that, growing up and all...
