Category: Gender and sexual diversity

I have been really moved by this Ted Talk by a woman who had to choose between her daughter and her Church because of her daughters sexuality.

While it brought up sadness and anger that people are still being treated this way by organised religions, the hope and love she demonstrates brought me to tears. There are good people out there, there is an enormous capacity for love. When we connect to it, when we connect to others the power of that is incredible. That makes me hopeful.

This article with the words of a non binary 10 year old is brilliant.

Its clear and straightforward but the final quotes struck me as so important, not just when dealing with gender diversity but life in general.

Just image how society would be if everyone followed this rule

I don’t need people to understand.

I just need people not to be rude.
