Trigger Warnings: mutilations suicide surgery ostracization homophobia and transphobia violence towards people of the LGBT community. ~Please be a responsible listener.~ You’ve all been waiting for it: The first part of our mini-series on gender and sexuality. We bring on blogger Klaus McHendry. From the get-go we deal with some heavy topics, including abuses against LGBTQ+ people, but stick with us because we talk about the pervasive gender binary. We also touch on Western imperialism and the question: which is better, bad representation or no representation?Klaus has more to say at the thenicklauseffect.tumblr.com. Follow them; they’re awesome. Klaus will be coming back as we continue the gender and sexuality mini-series.If you want to know more about two-spirit people, check out nativeout.com or the Center for Cross-Cultural Research at Western Washington University.CreditsSpecial Guest (G&S Specialist) : Klaus McHendryMonologue : Kyle MitchellSound Editing & Script : Cosmo CavanaughHosted by: All t
