The Connection Between Gender and Sexuality: A Personal Journey

Far from being two separate causes, marriage equality and access to gender-affirming care must both be protected from conservative rhetoric. But some in the LGBTQ community would separate the issues, claiming gender and sexuality are unrelated and different arguments. Join Ami as she explains the common source of our internal and external experiences of identity.

Very interesting concept

[@amethystaherrick]

I hope there was something new for you in there. I know my theory of identity contradicts many out there now. I'm interested in feedback, of course! 💜

@amethystaherrick I like the way you discussed the concept of beauty in relationship to gender and sexual attraction. There definitely is a connection between the two. Especially when you consider that transition involves changing your sexual presentation. Incidentally, we had a storm and a nice display of mammatus clouds tonight. I followed you on instagram. I can send you a picture on there

@@dynamis1776 - ooh! I'd love to see the photos! Yes, please feel free to send them on Instagram. Thank you! 💜
About gender and sexuality, I hope we can figure out in the community that the more we fragment ourselves, the less chance we'll all stand against conservative rhetoric.
