Monday, Nov. 16th Gender Identity

Please find one(1) article online relating to gender identity (please refer to your notes booklet on gender identity. Any of the 'terms to know' could be a topic you could search).

Please read the article and fill out the "article analysis sheet" (to be passed into Mr. Collins).

After you have finished the article analysis, please start a journal reflection on the following:

¡What are your observations about gender norms in your community? (define community in whatever way you wish: town, family, school, province, country, religion, ethnic group).

¡Where do you see acceptance and celebrations of diversity in your community?

¡Where do you find evidence of discrimination and heterosexism?

¡How would you react if a close friend or family member came out? Consider how you would react in a private conversation, and how you would react when the person came out openly. Justify your response by reflecting on your values and how they would help you in this situation.

 

Your response should be 1-2 pages double spaced and must be submitted via turnitin.com
