Masculinity, Femininity, And All The Spaces In Between: Understanding Gender And Gender Roles And How It All Affects Your Life. Masculine, Feminine, Sissy, Butch, Femme, Queen, Fairy, Bear. What are the ingredients in this blender of gender? Who decides? What if our gender isn’t congruent with our genitals? We are all affected by the gender we portray and told we are supposed to portray, some of us more than others. This workshop will focus on exploring your gender identity and the ways gender roles help and hurt us and how to love your own and others’ gender expression.
