A very good primer on Sex, Gender and how to update our thinking about it.
While I was aware of this idea of gender, the fluidity of it and how one is free to choose it, the highlights of this talk for me were —
- Jews are the only ones usually talked about as targets of Nazi holocaust. We tend to miss out the others who were also targetted - the queer people, gays, lesbians, people with disabilities, people with illnesses etc.
- Our vocabulary of being inclusive is constantly evolving with ages. We have now learnt to better address people of colour, women etc. The evolution to address the non-binary folks in a better way, acknowledges their existence, which is the very start of hearing out to them.
Go listen to the talk.
