Please join us for Transpositive on Tuesday, June 30th at 6pm on KBOO. How is gender identity learned, is it a social construction or a biological realtiy? Given that today we live in a world where there is a hybrid of socially acceptable gender expression where do transgender women and cisgender women fall on the gender spectrum? What aspects of socialization have cisgender women internalized as part of their social narrative and how does that compare to the narratives Transgender women tell themselves about identity?
We will join KBOO supporter Janet Unruh this week in part one of a series of conversations this summer between different categories of gender identity. We will be sharing in conversations between transgender women and cisgender women, transgender women and cisgender men, trans men and trans women and nonbinary folks about how gender identity is constructed, how we internalize gender and how we express our expectations of gender in terms of narrative and external expression.
