I still have my male anatomy, but I embrace femininity on my own terms. I don't desire to have a vagina or be like other women. I simply want to express myself in a feminine way.

Welcome to Just Naked. In this show, adults get naked so we can learn from them. Today, we have transgender guests who will answer questions about their bodies. Being transgender means feeling different from the gender you were assigned at birth. Some transgender people choose to have surgery, while others don't. They may still feel uncomfortable with certain body parts. After surgery, some transgender individuals feel euphoric and finally at peace with their bodies. It's important to remember that gender is not just male or female, there is a wide spectrum in between.

I went from identifying as a straight boy to a gay boy, then as a non-binary person, and now I identify as a trans straight woman. I have come to realize that I am actually a trans lesbian.

There are over 100 gender identities, apart from male and female. Some individuals may identify as two different genders or as bigender. Others may describe themselves as gender queer, not wanting to be associated with any specific gender.

Women are either born women or have transitioned to be women. Women are all different, including biological women and trans women. If someone transitions to being a woman, they are no longer a man.

There are 6 sexes and genders discussed: female, male, intersex, upskirt, sarees, and eloni. These categories cover a range of characteristics, including those who may have been assigned one gender at birth but later express characteristics of another. It's important not to let traditional gender binaries limit self-love and acceptance.

Speaker 0 explains that sex refers to the body parts you’re born with. Speaker 1 adds that gender is who you may be inside, while sex is whether you were born a boy or a girl. Speaker 0 notes that sometimes gender and body parts are the same, and sometimes they are different. The conversation ends with a question about the different gender identities.

Instead of saying someone is a transgender, it is more appropriate to say they are transgender. Instead of saying someone transgendered, it is better to say they transitioned. Instead of saying someone changed genders, it is more accurate to say they transitioned or affirmed their gender. Instead of saying someone was born a girl, it is more correct to say they were assigned female at birth. Instead of saying someone became a boy, it is more suitable to say they fully transitioned. Instead of saying someone was a girl, it is more accurate to say they presented as a woman. Instead of saying being trans means you're gay, it is important to understand that gender identity and sexual orientation are not the same. Lastly, it is important to mind your own business.

A trans man is someone who was assigned female at birth, while cisgender or cis refers to those who identify with the gender they were assigned at birth. Transitioning can be challenging due to concerns about societal acceptance and potential loss of relationships or employment. It's important to use correct pronouns, such as she/her, he/him, or they/them, to respect individuals' gender identities. Including pronouns in email signatures can create a more inclusive environment. Misunderstandings and misjudgments about trans people can have serious consequences, as their rights and lives are at stake. Trans people exist as a reality, not an opinion.

My pronouns are they/them, but for this meeting, I'm sharing that I use she/they/him. This often leads to complex discussions about gender, which we don't typically have. I once asked my father, "Do you know what it means to be a man?" He said no. Then, "Do you know what it means to be a woman?" Again, he said no. And that's where I'm at too. My womanhood isn't defined by childbearing or feminine behavior, and my manhood isn't about my genitalia. Understanding gender identity is a key part of being in the LGBTQ community.

Chromosomes are insufficient to define gender because people exaggerate features to portray their gender of choice. If someone feels 80% female and 20% male, they might put on makeup. The next day, feeling 80% male, they might remove the makeup and wear a muscle shirt.

The speaker highlights that the question of gender identities is exciting because there are many more than just male and female. They state that there are over 100 gender identities, if not more. The speaker notes that some people may feel like they have two different genders, referring to bigender. They also mention individuals who identify as genderqueer, meaning they might not want to be anything in particular and choose to be themselves.

There is not one surgery that every transgender person wants. Many transgender people have no interest in having surgery. For other people, they undergo medical transition involving use of gender affirming hormone treatments. And for others, they may have one or more surgeries. They may have top surgery, which is surgery on the chest or breasts. They may have bottom surgery, surgery on the genitals. They may have facial feminization. Trans women may have a tracheal shave to reduce their Adam's apple. No two trans people have the same needs to resolve their gender dysphoria. So you can never make an assumption that any trans person wants any particular surgery or any surgery at all.

Transgender ideology claims that people can be born into the wrong body, but this is not supported by the fact that human sexuality is binary. Reproduction requires a man and a woman, as indicated by the sex chromosomes. Gender identity is a matter of thoughts and feelings, which can be factually correct or incorrect. Persistently believing in a false identity is considered a delusion, such as thinking one is Margaret Thatcher or a cat. People with body identity integrity disorder believe they are amputees trapped in a normal body. Wanting to remove healthy breasts and genitals is seen as transgender, not a mental illness. The transgender rights movement is using individuals with disorders of sex development to advocate for a civil right to mental illness, which does not exist.

I love talking about what it means to be non binary. I'm non binary. And so I use they, them, their pronouns. So when we think about non binary, really what we're talking about is people of a variety of gender diverse identities that are outside of the typical traditional gender binary. Man and woman is typically what we think about as the gender binary. So non binary folks are those of us who live within that, outside of that, beyond it, and essentially transcend it in some way. So it might be folks that feel like they're a combination of masculine and feminine or that they're entirely outside of that construct or that context altogether.

This video features various individuals discussing their experiences and perspectives on gender identity and transgender issues. They touch on topics such as personal expression, femininity, power dynamics, bathroom usage, and societal acceptance. The speakers express a range of emotions, from empowerment and self-discovery to frustration and anger. The video highlights the complexity and diversity of transgender experiences and challenges societal norms and expectations surrounding gender.

In order for therapies for gender dysphoria to become mainstream, the definition of the condition needs to change. In the past, transgenderism was considered a mental illness and treated as such. However, in 2013, the American Psychiatric Association changed the nomenclature from transsexualism or gender identity disorder to gender dysphoria. This change removed the term "transsexual" and shifted the focus away from pharmaceuticals and surgeries. Without these interventions, the condition is essentially reduced to being a transvestite or cross dresser. This was the understanding of the condition for many years.

A child will often know that they are transgender from the moment that they have any ability to express themselves, and parents will often tell us this. We have parents who tell us that their kids, they knew from the minute they were born practically, and actions like refusing to get a haircut or standing to urinate, trying on siblings' clothing, playing with the quote opposite gender toys, things like that. There is more and more a group of adolescents that we are seeing that really are coming to the realization that they might be trans or gender diverse a little bit later on in their life. So what we're seeing from them is that they always sort of knew something was maybe off and didn't have the understanding to know that they might be trans or have a different gender identity than the one they had been assigned. So that is a growing population that we are seeing and that's being recognized as being trans and able to be treated.

In this video, the speaker talks about their different versions of themselves. They mention a "glam she" version and explain that it can be difficult to explain gender confusion to others. They describe feeling like there are two levels inside them, with the "she" version at about 60 and the "he" version at 40. Sometimes the "she" version is more dominant and their pronouns and attitude change. They also mention that there is something inherently soft about them when they express themselves in this way.

Speaker 0 asks if a baby is a boy or a girl. Speaker 1 explains that a baby's sex is determined by their body parts at birth. However, gender is how someone feels inside and may not always match their sex. Speaker 1 gives an example of someone born with a penis who identifies as a boy, and someone born with a penis who identifies as a girl. Speaker 0 asks if gender means liking certain things, to which Speaker 1 responds that toys and clothes are for everyone, regardless of gender. Speaker 0 shares that they have been told what they can and cannot play with based on their gender, but Speaker 1 reassures them that they can choose what feels right for them. The video ends with Speaker 1 saying goodbye.

Hi baby, determining sex at birth is based on body parts. Sex is physical, while gender is how you feel inside. Sometimes sex and gender don't match. You can be a boy with a penis or a girl with a vulva. Gender doesn't dictate what you like. It's okay to be yourself, regardless of stereotypes. Your feelings determine who you are. Embrace your uniqueness as you grow up.

Michigan Medicine strives to be a safe, welcoming place for transgender individuals and to provide excellent health care regardless of gender. The goal of this video is to improve the comfort and competency of frontline staff in caring for transgender individuals. We will start by talking about gender identity, challenges the transgender community has faced in the health care system, and Michigan's policies regarding gender non-discrimination. The second half of this training is job specific. To discuss gender identity, it is important to understand the difference between sex and gender. Sex refers to one's reproductive organs, native hormones, and chromosomes, while gender identity refers to one's internal sense of gender, a person's basic sense of being a man or boy, a woman or girl, or another gender. Gender identity can be expressed by how individuals present themselves socially, including clothing, physical characteristics, speech, and mannerisms. All people, whether they are transgender or cisgender, meaning not transgender, have a gender identity and expression. Transgender is a term for individuals whose gender identity differs from the gender identity typically associated with their sex assigned at birth. There are many identities that fall under the umbrella of transgender. Transgender men, trans men, or trans masculine refer to people who are assigned female sex at birth but identify as men or masculine. Transgender women, trans women, or trans feminine refer to people who were assigned male sex at birth but identify as women or feminine. Other individuals may identify as genderqueer, agender, genderfluid, two spirited, bigender, or another identity that does not fit neatly into the categories of men or women. All major American medical societies, including the American Medical Association and American Psychological Association, endorse gender affirming care as the standard of care for transgender individuals. This means caring for people in a way that supports their gender transition and gender identity. Transgender people may undergo any one of a number of gender affirming medical interventions, including hormonal therapies like estrogen, testosterone, or hormone blockers, and surgical treatment to change body contours or genitalia. However, it is important to note that one does not have to undergo any medical or surgical treatment to be transgender. Some people are easily read as the gender they affirm while others are visibly gender non conforming or androgynous appearing.

The speaker notes that LGBTQ involves many letters and is easy to explain: lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender. They add that the letter Q has two meanings: one square, and the other is questioning.

There is a default setting for humans regarding male and female, but it's important to recognize that not everyone fits into this binary. While we should compassionately support those who don't conform, we also need to acknowledge biological realities. Children often lack the understanding to navigate these complex issues, and no parent desires to face such difficult choices. The perception of being transgender may seem trendy today, but it's not a choice made lightly. The prevalence of gender identity issues can vary by location, potentially influenced by societal acceptance or suppression. This phenomenon can be likened to the historical suppression of left-handedness, which increased once society accepted it as normal.

The speaker mentions their 15-month-old child, using they/them pronouns until the child expresses their gender identity. They emphasize the difference between sex (related to genitals) and gender (related to how one presents themselves in the world). Gender includes clothing choices, behavior, and identity shared with others.
