Summary

Chalene, herself, is a self-proclaimed dummy in the ever-evolving world of gender identity and sexual orientation. There continue to be so many changes in language, definitions and beliefs surrounding this complicated and nuanced topic. And while so much of it has become controversial and political, Chalene believes that it doesn't need to be. Because of which, her objective, today, is to share what she knows (in regard to the terminology) to the best of her ability — so that you walk away with a better understanding of this very common and timely matter. Having greater awareness — wherever you stand on any issue — allows us all to be more empathetic.

Today, we are going to be discussing gender identity and sexual orientation for dummies.

0:09.9

And when I say dummies, please don't take offense to that.
