The Future of Gender: kids know who they are.


Sweden has recently created the word gen to refer to any person with no regard to their gender. Social roles and standars frequently make things go wrong and probably it is time stop telling our kids who they are or who they must be to elt their inner identity bloom.

More and more kids find their true identities at a younger age. probably in the future more gens will show a step in evolution to our social and personal identities and make a difference to the human race.

We all love Cassidy and all transgender queens!

 

Hopefully a growing trend, high schools in America are trying to become more tolerant and civilized. This case let us see that American teenagers have a different mindset about their lives and their relationships than their parents had.

Teenagers at Huntington Beach School have shown a different face of the average hateful, arrogant stereotype we see in movies and tv shows. Cassidy Lynn Campbell a 16 year old transgender student has been voted Homecoming Queen.

This is the America we want to be proud in the future, not the bullying one.
