10. Common misconception
 Gender identity is your
biological gender from
birth as well as how
others perceive your
gender.
 Some people choose
to be gay.
 if you encounter someone who
you believe is a man but looks
and acts in what you perceive
to be a feminine manner, you
should take your best guess as
to their pronouns.
Reality: Gender
identity is entirely
personal: it’s how you
experience your gender
internally and think
about yourself. There’s
no such thing as a
biological gender, since
it’s a societal construct
Reality: Sexuality is not
a choice, that is how the
person is born. Like we
do not chose to be
heterosexual person,
people do not chose to
be homosexual, bisexual
or pansexual. No one
chooses to be gay, as
much as no one chooses
to be straight. Similarly,
counseling or therapy
can’t change someone’s
sexuality.
Reality: We can’t guess
someone’s gender
identity: it is not our
determination to make
for someone else! If
you’re unsure of how
someone would like to
be addressed, you
should simply ask them
directly for the pronouns
they go by?"

11. SUGGETION

LGBTQ brothers and
sisters.
