Associations between trans-inclusive resources and feelings of inclusion in campus LGBTQ+ groups
Transgender, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming (TNG) college students, especially TNG students of color, often face marginalization and victimization within higher education settings. Implementing inclusive policies and practices may help to mitigate the harmful effects of these experiences and strengthen students’ connections to colleges and universities. Using data from a 2016 online survey of TNG students’ experiences (n = 523), we conducted…
Transgender Graduate Students
This study explored how 30 trans graduate students made decisions regarding graduate school. Specifically, it examined how the students chose their graduate program and, secondarily, how they chose their field, what led them to apply to graduate school, and their outness during the application process. In selecting a program, participants considered contextual and personal factors that encompassed commonly cited academic and pragmatic circumstanc…
“I Want to Be Safe…And I Also Want a Job”
Trans individuals experience unique stressors related to their careers, such as discrimination, workplace harassment, navigating transition, and disclosure of their identity. The current study examined the experiences of 30 trans graduate students with regard to career decision-making. In total, 19 identified as at least one nonbinary identity and 11 were binary trans-identified (trans men and trans women). Thematic analysis of in-depth interview…
Trans activism and advocacy among transgender students in higher education
Trans students face institutional and interpersonal discrimination that renders them vulnerable to minority stress. Some trans students respond to minority stress, and perceptions of injustice on their campuses, via engagement in campus activism or advocacy. The current mixed methods study explores trans undergraduate and graduate students' explanations for engaging or not engaging in activism/advocacy and the types of activities in which they en…

Trans-Inclusive College Records
This article focuses on one area in which most US colleges and universities fail to meet the needs of trans students: the ability to use a name and gender other than the name and gender assigned to them at birth and to indicate their personal pronouns on campus records and documents. After explaining why name, gender, and pronoun processes are needed, we present cases studies of how aspects of these processes were carried out at the University of…
Raising and Empowering LGBTQ and Gender-Nonconforming Youth
Toward the end of educator Cris Mayo's LGBTQ Youth and Education (2014), she relates the story of AJ, a white, FTM teen from a small town in Kentucky, who had been profiled in Mary L. Gray's (2007) study of queer youth spaces in the rural United States. AJ created a website that chronicled his transition and provided information for other trans youth that he could not readily find elsewhere online. According to Gray, “the website became a way for…
The intersections of trans women and lesbian identities, communities, and movements”
This introduction to the special issue on "The Intersections of Trans Women and Lesbian Identities, Communities, and Movements" considers the interconnectedness of "trans" and "lesbian" as identities and as concepts. Our approach challenges a reading of the two communities as largely separate and adversarial. In reviewing the articles included in this issue, we highlight places of intersection between the two identities, including the experiences…
A Queer Capital
Rooted in extensive archival research and personal interviews, A Queer Capital is the first history of LGBT life in the nation’s capital. Revealing a vibrant past that dates back more than 125 years, the book explores how lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals established spaces of their own before and after World War II, survived some of the harshest anti-gay campaigns in the U.S., and organized to demand equal treatment. Telling the stories of black …
Bisexual Men in Culture and Society
Creating a Place for Ourselves
A Presence in the Past
This article provides an overview of the literature written about individuals who are referred to today as transgender people, with a focus on material from the United States. Influential studies are discussed, particularly works by trans people. The article concludes by suggesting useful directions for future research, including the need to document trans political, legal, and cultural campaigns; considering a greater range of transgender people…
The Children Should Lead Us
This article reviews Diane Ehrensaft's Gender Born, Gender Made: Raising Healthy Gender-Nonconforming Children, a thoughtful and practical guide that can help parents, other family members, and therapists better understand and support children and youth whom the author refers to as “gender creative.” Ehrensaft's work is at the forefront of a paradigm shift in how gender-nonconforming children are treated in and outside of mental health settings
Where Bisexuality Isn't
Home on the Wide-Open Range of Gender
Kate Bornstein and S. Bear Bergman's Gender Outlaws: The Next Generation is a collection of narratives written by individuals with a wide range of gender identities and expressions from around the world. The text shows how gender-nonconforming people are changing how society looks at gender. As many of the individuals who are challenging gender norms are youth, the work provides important insights into the experiences of this generation
