Gender Expansiveness

“In nature, gender is fluid, dynamic, and even interchangeable.”

Amy Ellis Nutt, Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family (2015), p. 163.

Young people are exploring and expanding the traditional concept of gender as binary (male/female). They are helping to develop and live out a practical understanding of gender as a spectrum upon which we each find our place to feel comfortable and live authentically.
