Download or read book The Transgender Guide written by Mistress Dede and published by Mistress Dede. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transgender is not the same as being transsexual. A transsexual was born one gender and transitions to the other. A transgendered person can be a man who is married to a woman. This man may dress in women's clothing, expressing himself as a woman at times. Gender has its roots in the mind, if you will. The Transgendered person doesn't relate only to the sex they were born into. They may not feel comfortable in identifying with a sexual identity at all. They can see themselves not as a man or woman, just as a human. Transgendered people have their identity in many facets. A transgendered woman may dress like a man. She may feel a stronger foundation within a suit and tie. She can be gay, straight or bi-sexual. The confinement of a term at all may seem limiting to a transgendered person. Can we just be who we are, not what our sex makes us?

Download or read book The Queer and Transgender Resilience Workbook written by Anneliese A. Singh and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can you build unshakable confidence and resilience in a world still filled with ignorance, inequality, and discrimination? The Queer and Transgender Resilience Workbook will teach you how to challenge internalized negative messages, handle stress, build a community of support, and embrace your true self. Resilience is a key ingredient for psychological health and wellness. It’s what gives people the psychological strength to cope with everyday stress, as well as major setbacks. For many people, stressful events may include job loss, financial problems, illness, natural disasters, medical emergencies, divorce, or the death of a loved one. But if you are queer or gender non-conforming, life stresses may also include discrimination in housing and health care, employment barriers, homelessness, family rejection, physical attacks or threats, and general unfair treatment and oppression—all of which lead to overwhelming feelings of hopelessness and powerlessness. So, how can you gain resilience in a society that is so often toxic and unwelcoming? In this important workbook, you’ll discover how to cultivate the key components of resilience: holding a positive view of yourself and your abilities; knowing your worth and cultivating a strong sense of self-esteem; effectively utilizing resources; being assertive and creating a support community; fostering hope and growth within yourself, and finding the strength to help others. Once you know how to tap into your personal resilience, you’ll have an unlimited well you can draw from to navigate everyday challenges. By learning to challenge internalized negative messages and remove obstacles from your life, you can build the resilience you need to embrace your truest self in an imperfect world.

Witty, wise, and pulling no punches, The Curmudgeon’s Guide to Getting Ahead is an indispensable sourcebook for living an adult life.
