All Episodes - So much more than gender
"Soooo Much More... Than Gender" is about the actual lives of people who are transgender and gender non-conforming (TGNC). The point is to present the real lives of the TGNC community. Some of us are exceptional in one way or another, most of us are ordinary in most ways, all of us are human in every way. So the series presents both my story and the stories of many others in the TGNC community. We are moving away from the religious fundamentalist abstraction of the so-called “horrors” of gender variance to the real lives of people who have left behind an obsessive concern over gender.
