The Action Youth

Ben Saunders:

<big>'''The Action Youth'''</big>
<h3> Transgender youth group in '''[[ Liverpool ]]''' </h3>
 
For '''young people''' aged between 12-18 who identify as '''[[ transgender ]]''' or '''[[ non-binary ]]'''
 
The Action Youth is a weekly drop in group that runs on a Wednesday evening between 4-6pm
 
It happens in '''YPAS at 36 Bolton Street, Liverpool, L3 5LX'''
 
 
When you go inside there's chairs and sofas around the room, next to the little mini kitchen :)
 
This is where everyone sits around and chats, this can be kindof daunting when you first go because everyone looks like they're in big friendship groups which can feel scary because you don't know where to sit the first time you go in...
 
<big> BUT </big>
 
There's always a chair somewhere to sit and someone who doesn't have anyone to talk to so they're always pretty happy to have someone sit next to them (or failing that go and get a cup of '''tea''' and the leaders will talk to you :)
 
 
This group is usually a bit smaller than [[ GYRO ]] because less people go and it's usually a bit more chill and calmer which can be nice sometimes (but there's always still a big game of giant jenga and an intense game of uno going on!)
 
At The Action Youth people tend to drink lots of tea and eat snacks and just chat, so it's such a calm environment to make friends and things :)
 
 
Usually at the start of the session everyone just sits around chatting -after you've signed your name in on the register :)
 
Then the leaders chat to the whole group and everyone goes around the 'circle' and says their name and [[ pronouns ]] and answers 'the question of the day' (usually something like "do you like cats or dogs better") -but if you don't want to answer then you don't have to :)

Pronouns

2019-07-04T20:00:20Z

Ben Saunders:

<big><h3> '''Pronouns''' <h3></big>
 
 
Different people use different pronouns that they feel '''personally''' expresses their identity the best
 
 
For example:
 
He/him (e.g. someone who may identify as more masculine)
 
She/her (e.g. someone who may identify as more feminine)
 
They/them (e.g. someone who may identify as [[ non-binary ]], genderqueer or gender-non-conforming etc)
 
Other people may use different pronouns such as ze (etc..)
 
 
When meeting someone try to ask for their pronouns, as people may not use the pronouns you 'expect' them to use based on their physical appearance
 
This can be really helpful for [[ transgender ]] and gender-non-conforming people and make people feel a lot more comfortable :)
 
(it can also help to prevent people from being misgendered, because you can never assume someones pronouns!)
 
Trying to ask people their pronouns can also reassure people that they are in [[ LGBTQ+ ]] friendly company and therefore feel safer and more comfortable to express their identity
 
 
Doing this can also help to 'usualise' gender variant identities! :)

LGBTQ+

2019-07-04T19:59:16Z

Ben Saunders:

=== ''' LGBTQ+''' ===
 
 
This is an acronym that stands for Lesbian, Gay , Bisexual, [[ Transgender ]] and Queer (and everyone else in the "+" !!)
 
 
Other versions of this acronym are also sometimes used, e.g. LGBTQIA which stands for Lesbian, Gay , Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex and Allied (or Asexual)

Transgender

2019-07-04T19:53:38Z

Ben Saunders:

<big><h3> '''Transgender''' <h3></big>
 
The term transgender is an '''umbrella term''' that refers to people who don't identify with the gender they were assigned with at birth
 
 
This could mean someone who identifies as a '''transgender man''' may have been referred to as a 'girl' at birth but now identifies as a man
 
 
This could also mean someone who identifies as a '''transgender woman''' may have been referred to as a 'boy' at birth but now identifies as a woman
 
 
The term transgender can also refer to someone who identifies as '''non-binary''' or '''genderqueer''' etc, as they don't identify with the gender they were assigned with at birth
 
 
It is also important to remember to ask people for their [[ pronouns ]] when you meet them (even if you've met before this can still be helpful just to ask again to avoid misgendering them) :)

Transgender* Experience in School

Ben Saunders:

Short film | Made in the North West | Film maker [[Ben Saunders]]
 
 
https://vimeo.com/332826733
 
 
Short documentary film about transgender and non-binary young people's experiences in school
 
 
The film consists of interviews with seven trans and non-binary young people from across the North West area in England
 
The young people interviewed discuss their experiences as trans people in school and how this has effected their mental health and education, and also address what needs to be done to improve the situation so that trans students are accepted and understood at school like any other student.
 
The film also highlights the negative experiences many trans young people face in school as a result of schools lacking understanding and education about trans identities and how to support these students.
 
 
This film was made in association with the LGBTQ+ charity: Stonewall, as part of the Young Campaigners Program and was awarded the 'Stonewall Young Campaigner of the Year Award' as a result of this campaign and short film
