Example text
A person’s understandings of history, cultural expectations, implicit and explicit societal traditions and rules all influence how one enacts gender and sexuality (Brickell, 2006; Lindsey, 2010). With this theoretical frame, gender and sexuality are mediated by societal pressures and cultural contexts instead of byproducts created through the biological or psychological domains. Understandings of femininity and masculinity, like understandings of heterosexuality, homosexuality, or bisexuality, are socially mediated (Parent, DeBlaere, & Moradi, 2013) and subject to pressures or norms.
These organizations believed bisexuality was viewed as an honored group of people who represented breaking free from binaries and categories. While the lesbian and gay movement was pushing for being out and proud, bisexual individuals were exploring and developing a platform to promote. This created tension between the groups and assumptions that bisexual individuals have the luxury of sharing or hiding their identities. The bisexual community remains divided about the scope of the current movement.
Thus, a person’s gender may differ from the sex assigned at birth. The recognition of the discontinuity between biology and psychology opened the door for medical transformation (Lehmiller, 2014). This transition exemplifies the modernist perspective on gender; by changing their bodies, these individuals are able to embrace their true psychological identity and present a cohesive sense of self. Transgender individuals who opt to change their biological sex embrace a journey-like process, albeit an arduous one, where they reach their final destination (Lehmiller, 2014).
