Gender Identity

Generally speaking, gender identity reflects each person’s internal and individual experience of gender. Gender, sex, gender identity and roles, gender expression, and sexual orientation are all important concepts to be able to fully understand gender identity concept. It is not fair to push the LGBTQ+ perspective on gender identity on the rest of the us.

Stress & Depression

Much needed! thank you for doing this project. I work in the public school and the students are inundated daily through the curriculum, after school clubs, advisory lessons, etc. on this topic. Even non-Muslim kids are so confused. It is causing them stress and depression. I just read an article a few weeks ago on how 2 teachers were stalking kids online to see who to recruit into their LGBT clubs.

A Crack

Confusing the youth about gender identity in the media and school curriculum is creating a crack in the sacred institution of marriage, the nucleus of a healthy society.
