Curious about gender diversity?  Hoping to become a better ally to gender-diverse and transgender people?  Have questions about gender and sex but don’t know where to start? Historian of sexuality and medicine and longtime LGBTQIA activist Hanne Blank leads two workshops where you can bring your curiosity and questions and build your knowledge and allyship. 

In this workshop we’re talking about bodies: anatomy, hormones, physiology, genetics, and how it all relates to the spectrum of sex and gender.  We’ll talk about sex diagnosis and assignment, the spectrum of embodied experiences gender-diverse people can have, discuss the range of medical interventions available to folks who want to change their bodies, and talk about specific ways YOU can be a better, more knowledgeable ally to people of ALL genders, sexes, and biologies.  Don’t forget to bring your questions!
