Presenting a range of data obtained from secondary schools in the UK and US, this path-breaking book explores the role played by language in constructing sexual identities. Analysing the often ...complex ways in which homophobia, heterosexism and heteronormativity are enacted within school contexts, it shows that by analysing language, we can discover much about how educators and students experience sexual diversity in their schools, how sexual identities are constructed through language, and how different statuses are ascribed to different sexual identities.
The Dutch approach on clinical management of both prepubertal children under the age of 12 and adolescents starting at age 12 with gender dysphoria, starts with a thorough assessment of any ...vulnerable aspects of the youth's functioning or circumstances and, when necessary, appropriate intervention. In children with gender dysphoria only, the general recommendation is watchful waiting and carefully observing how gender dysphoria develops in the first stages of puberty. Gender dysphoric adolescents can be considered eligible for puberty suppression and subsequent cross-sex hormones when they reach the age of 16 years. Currently, withholding physical medical interventions in these cases seems more harmful to wellbeing in both adolescence and adulthood when compared to cases where physical medical interventions were provided.

When the Nazis came to power, they used various strategies to expel German Jews from social, cultural, and economic life. Fighter, Worker, and Family Man focuses on the gendered experiences and ...discrimination that German-Jewish men faced between 1933 and 1941.
Sebastian Huebel argues that Jewish men’s gender identities, intersecting with categories of ethnicity, race, class, and age, underwent a profound process of marginalization that destabilized accustomed ways of performing masculinity. At the same time, in their attempts to sustain their conceptions of masculinity these men maintained agency and developed coping strategies that prevented their full-scale emasculation. Huebel draws on a rich archive of diaries, letters, and autobiographies to interpret the experiences of these men, focusing on their roles as soldiers and protectors, professionals and breadwinners, and parents and husbands.
Fighter, Worker, and Family Man sheds light on how the Nazis sought to emasculate Jewish men through propaganda, the law, and violence, and how in turn German-Jewish men were able to defy emasculation and adapt – at least temporarily – to their marginalized status as men.
Cinsel kimlik bozukluğu kapsamı içinde kullanılan transseksüel terimi; kendilerine atanan cinsiyetle uyuşmayan başka bir cinsiyet kimliğine sahip bireyleri tanımlamak için kullanılan bir şemsiye ...terimdir. Kısaca trans olarak tanımlanan bireylerin bakımında ve cinsiyet farklılıklarında hemşirelerin önemli sorumlulukları bulunmaktadır. Çünkü hemşireler, sağlığı geliştirmek ve hastalıkları önlemek için faaliyetler yürütmenin yanı sıra, ayaktan tedavi ve hastane hizmetlerinde genellikle ilk karşılaşmadan son görüşmeye kadar önemli bir referanstır. İnsanların cinsel çeşitliliğine, cinsiyetine ve diğer özelliklerine saygı göstererek bakım sunan hemşireler, trans bireylerin sağlık hizmetine kolaylıkla erişimini de sağlamaktadır. Hemşirelikte bakım modeli kullanımı, insanı tüm boyutlarıyla ele almayı ve tanımayı, insanda problem yaratan durumların anlaşılmasını/ortaya çıkartılmasını, hemşirelik hizmetinin belli bir mantıkla ve sistemli bir şekilde sunulmasını, mesleki bakış açısının ve mesleki iletişimin geliştirilmesini sağlamaktadır. Bakım modellerinden birisi olan Neuman Sistemler Modeli, bireylerin iyilik haline veya sağlığına zarar veren stresörler üzerine odaklanan bütüncül perspektifi olan hemşirelik modelidir. Neuman’ın modeli, stresi azaltıcı/giderici özel hemşirelik girişimleri ile bireylerin sağlık yönünden güçlendirilmesine yardımcı olmaktadır. Dolayısıyla, hemşirelerin hedefi hasta/sağlıklı kişiler için en uygun sağlık düzeyini sağlamak ya da sağlığın korunmasına yönelik, birincil, ikincil veya üçüncül önleme müdahalelerinin kullanımı yoluyla streslerini azaltmaktır. Bu çalışma, 32 yaşında cinsel kimlik bozukluğu olan bir kadın hastanın bakımında Neuman Sistemler Modeli’nin kullanımına örnek olarak yapılmıştır.
There is ample scientific evidence for the importance of parental gender socialization in children’s binary gender development. Surprisingly, little is known about the role of parents’ own gender ...identity in the binary gender identity development of their children. Therefore, the present study investigated the association between parents’ and children’s binary gender identity (i.e., similarity to same- and other-gender individuals) in a sample of 142 Dutch families with a child between the ages of 6 and 12 years old. The Dutch context is characterized by relatively high gender equality. Both parents and their children answered questions about their similarity to same-gender and other-gender individuals. Generalized estimating equations revealed that parents’ same-gender similarity and parents’ other-gender similarity were positively associated with their children’s same- and other-gender-similarity, respectively. In addition, more other-gender similarity in parents was associated with
less
same-gender similarity in girls, but
more
same-gender similarity in boys. Parents who reported high similarity with both genders were more likely to have children who also reported higher similarity with both genders. These findings indicate that parents’ own binary gender identity is related in general and specific ways to their children’s binary gender identity development. Parents should be made aware of their role in children’s binary gender identity development. Yet, more research on different types of gender identity in parents and their children is necessary.
