From Gender Dysphoria to Gender Euphoria

When discussing transgender experience, there is often a focus on gender dysphoria, the distress someone experiences due to a mismatch between their gender identity and their sex assigned at birth. But what about gender euphoria and the powerful joys that can come during the varieties of transgender and gender-expansive experiences?

In this discussion/class we will look at the diverse types of dysphoria before diving into the power and beauty possible when we are seen in our gender or can find the power possible in the journeys we are on. Though this discussion will center the voices of transgender, gender non-conforming, non-binary, and gender-expansive individuals, people of all gender experiences are welcome, as well as partners and allies of those on diverse gender journeys.

Trans* and Non-Binary voices will be centered, others are also welcome to attend.
