Plenary Transgender

Rena Miller came to speak for this plenary. Rene is a transgender woman who is a social activist. She talked about her childhood and how she was abused by her father because she was a transgender woman. It was sad to learn that many of the transgender population in America commit suicide. Rene has  been pushing new laws to protect the transgender population. She is strong voice needed for this issue.

Sexual Identity

People find it difficult to define a person’s sexuality and i believe this occurs because a person’s sexuality cannot be defined. It is hard 

to label and define and place our self in a category. Ones sexuality is harder to define because it is complex and has many factors. A person’s sexuality can be impacted due to their race, gender, and other factors. In the class activity, we discussed some people find themselves in the “grey” area. The “Grey area” is where a person is not heterosexual or homosexual, they are in the middle of the range.
