Here are the key points I found in my research on intersex people:
- Intersex people are born with sex characteristics (such as chromosomes, gonads, or genitals) that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies. About 1-2% of the population is born intersex.
- There are many different intersex variations that can occur. Some common variations include Klinefelter syndrome (extra X chromosome), Turner syndrome (missing X chromosome), and congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
- In the past, doctors often recommended "corrective" genital surgery on intersex infants to make their genitals appear more typically male or female. However, this practice is now

The document provides an overview of Kohlberg's stages of gender identity and constancy development, and discusses how gender schema theory builds on but differs from Kohlberg's theory in proposing an earlier emergence of gender-related schemas.
The document discusses various topics related to human sexuality, including:
- Definitions of sex and gender, and the biological, psychological, and sociocultural dimensions of sexuality.
- Common myths and types of sexual activity, as well as the typical stages of sexual response.

It provides details on their channel numbers, launch dates, target audiences for different time slots, and examples of popular programming genres and documentary shows. Channel 4's target adult audience is ages 18-24 from 7-12pm, while ITV1 targets ages 18-24 from 7-12pm as well. BBC One targets parents ages 30-45 from 9:30am-3pm and those interested in politics and world news from 6-8pm.
The document summarizes how newspapers are organized and structured to appeal to different audiences. It notes sections like news, sports, TV listings, and opinions. Newspapers aim to attract both male and female readers with some sections taking more serious approaches while others focus on entertainment, gossip, and lifestyle topics. Advertisements make up a significant portion and promote popular brands, products, and events.

Assignemt 4; introduction to documentary taskKauana_Labaldi
This document provides summaries and analyses of four different TV documentaries: Man V Food, 7/7: One day in London, and One born every minute. For each documentary, the genre, air time, channel and a brief description is given. The document also analyzes some of the conventions used in each documentary such as establishing shots, interviews, titles, camera work and voiceovers.
This document lists the different sections commonly found in newspapers such as sports, news, TV, money, opinion, play, and lifestyle. Research is being conducted on newspaper adverts for assignment number 5 by Kauana Labaldi in the 13th grade. The document provides a high-level overview of the types of content and sections contained within newspapers.
This document summarizes and analyzes a video called "The Right to be Colourful". It notes that the presenter was well presented and spoke with formal English. It also comments that the video used supporting images to show facts but some images could have been clearer. The document also discusses another video called "The Food Cycle", praising its effective use of a voiceover and coins to emphasize money decreasing, but suggests the character could have been more presentable and interactive.
This document provides information about various film crew roles including director, art director, first assistant director, and camera operator. It describes the key responsibilities for each role and provides examples of professionals who have excelled in these roles such as Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, Rick Carter, and Jack Cardiff. It also includes what the document author will do to be successful if they were to take on these roles.
The document outlines planning for an assignment involving a short film, including brainstorming revenge and murder themes, considering shot types like establishing shots and close-ups, using techniques like the 180 degree rule and match on action, providing draft storyboards, and noting contributions from group members Kauana, Luara, and Chantelle.
The document describes several jobs for a film production:
1. Assistant Director - Organizes actors and locations, assists the director, manages time and ensures scenes are filmed correctly.
2. Art Director - Responsible for all props and costumes, ensures correct items are ready and replenished. Pays close attention to detail.
3. Camera Operator - Operates cameras to film scenes following the Assistant Director and Director of Photography's instructions. Films using equipment like cameras and tripods. Pays attention to lighting, angles, and appropriate shots.
This document discusses the analysis of preliminary tasks for an assignment. It provides an example of a successful preliminary task that had good lighting, camera angles, movement, and image quality. An unsuccessful task is also described that had a shaky camera, dark recording, and inaudible dialogue. The document concludes with lessons learned, such as the importance of good lighting, clear speaking, an effective set, matching the conversation genre to the opening, and introducing characters before showing a scene.
This document contains assignments from three students - Kauana, Luara, and Chantelle. Kauana's assignment discusses analyzing another student's blog. Luara's assignment also discusses analyzing other students' blogs. Both students provide details on the skills and targets they can bring to a group. Luara includes an individual opening sequence plan. Chantelle's section notes the student was absent.
This document discusses the genre of film noir and the subgenre of suspense. It lists reasons for interest in the genre such as its originality, interesting stories, and themes. It then examines conventions of film noir like the use of voiceovers, villains, victims, crimes involving femmes fatales, and detectives. Examples are provided for each convention from films like Sunset Boulevard. Inspiring scenes from films that showcase various emotions and aspects of noir are mentioned. Finally, an opening sequence is proposed that would introduce the story of a woman seeking revenge after being left at the altar.
The document discusses choosing the drama genre for a film project because the author is familiar with its conventions. It provides definitions and examples of drama films and the thriller/suspense subgenre. It also includes potential plot points and character descriptions for opening sequences of two possible film ideas - "Obsessed" about romantic obsession and stalking, and "Help/S.O.S" about a bullied girl seeking help.

GENDERS.
AN ANDROGYNE
MODEL CALLED
ANDREJ PEJIC
15. What are Androgyne and Poly gender people?
http://www.scottishtrans.org/Page/Androgyne_People.aspx
• people find they do not feel comfortable thinking of themselves
as simply either male or female.
• they feel that their gender identity is more complicated to
describe.
• Some may identify their gender as right in the middle between
male and female, while others may feel mainly male but not
100% male or vice-versa
• they may entirely reject defining their gender in terms of male
and female in any way.
• They call themselves: androgyne, polygender, genderqueer or
third-gender
16. • within these communities that self-definition is
the most important criteria.
• it can be very difficult to work out how to express
a gender identity which is neither simply male nor
female
• Some people may therefore experience a long
period of uncertainty about how they relate to the
highly gender-stereotyped world around them.
• Some have no interest at all in physically changing
their body. Others may wish to partially physically
transition (for example taking hormones but not
having any surgery or, alternatively, having some
surgery without taking hormones).
17. • others will follow the same transition route as
transsexual people do but reject identifying
simply as the gender they transition to.
• Occasionally, the desire to transition might
fluctuate over time.
• Their minds change a lot a they can be
considered confuse.
18. Views within economy
• Transgender people are targets of discrimination in
many areas of their lives; this marginalization exposes
them to tremendous social and economic insecurity
• the National Center for Transgender Equality and the
National Gay and Lesbian Task Force launched a six-
month data collection process:
-Double the rate of unemployment:
-Near universal harassment on the job
-Significant losses of jobs and careers
-High rates of poverty
-Significant housing instability
19. GRAPHS THEY HAVE PRODUCED.
IN HERE IT CAN BE SEEN THAT HERE IS A LOT OF DISCRIMINATION DUE TO
THEIR CHOICES.
THIS CAN ALSO SHOW DISCRIMINATION THAT THEY
ARE RECIEVING.
20. Some facts.
• In contrast to what people thing , having an
androgynous appearance does not necessarily
make a person Androgyne.
• Being an Androgyne has nothing to do with
sexuality but with identity.
• This means that they cannot be considered gay.
• Even LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual and
Transgender) people tend to assume that a third
gender does not exist.

28. Background on cross-dressing
• Cross dressing is when someone a male
dresses up to be a female or vice versa
• It has been used for purposes of disguise
• Some people automatically connect cross-
dressing behaviour to transgender identity
however the term cross dressing itself
does not imply any intentions.
29. History of cross-dressing
• Cross dressing has existed throughout history
• There are many examples in Greek, Norse and
Hindu mythology
• There is a rich history of cross-dressing found
in folklore, literature, theatre, and music
• Some women have cross-dressed to take up
male-dominated or male-exclusive
professions, such as military service.
30. Drag queens
Two transgendered people are
pictured to the left, one being Chris,
and one being Margaret. Chris was
male at birth, but has undergone
sex reassignment surgery to change
her physical form, while Margaret
identifies as a woman but has not
undergone any surgery
Transgender people who live their
lives as a member of the gender
they identify with are not cross-
dressing, unless they choose to
wear clothing associated with a
gender they do not identify with.
31. Different kinds of cross dressing
• Some people cross-dress as a matter of comfort or style.
• Some people cross-dress to shock others or challenge social norms.
• Both men and women may cross-dress to disguise their physical sex.
• Some performers cross-dress to play roles written for members of the
opposite sex.
• DRAG
• This is a special form of performance art based on the act of cross-
dressing.
• Drag queen: usually a male who performs as a exaggerated woman.
They usually wear showy dresses, high heeled shoes, heavy make up
and a wig
• Drag king: matching part of the drag queen but usually for much
different audiences. They are females who usually adopt a masculine
personality. They may imitate a male film or pop-music star
32. Religion and transgender
• Religions range from condemning any gender
variant behaviour, to honouring transgender
people as religious leaders
33. Christianity
• The New Testament is more unclear about gender-
variant identities than the Old Testament is
• Sex-change procedures do not change a person’s
gender in the eyes of the Church
• It is said that “it does not change the personality. If the
person was a male, he remains male. If she was female,
she remains female”
• Some Christian denominations accept transgender
people as members and clergy.
• The Church of England has kept a transsexual woman
as a priest.
34. Islam
• There are two types in Islam:
• The first is a person who innates these characteristics, they
did not put them on by themselves and therefore there is
no guilt, no blame and no shame. As long as the person has
not performed any act or any form of prostitution.
• The second type acts like a woman out of immoral
purposes and there they are a sinner and they are to
blame.
• Iran is a Muslim country however they have carried out
more sex change operations than Thailand.
• The government even provides up to half the cost for those
needing financial assistance and a sex change is recognised
on the birth certificate

37. How it first appeared
• First came from the greek godess Ninmah and father god Enki.
• In Europe, the term 'intersexual' was first to be used before the
Second World War.
• the term 'hermaphrodite' was replaced by the term 'intersex' that
came from British specialist Cawadias in the 1940s.
• Since the rise of modern medical science in Western
societies, some intersex people had their genitalia surgery done to
become either female or male.
• Existence of physical sexual variation in human beings has
increased.
38. What are intersex people ?
• Incomplete or unusual development of the internal reproductive
organs
• External genitals that cannot be easily classified as male or female
• Inability of the body to respond normally to sex-related hormones
• People with both sexes
• Nowadays doctors try to be more understanding towards intersex
people and give them a choice of what gender they want to be.
http://www.apa.org
39. Symptoms
• The person has the chromosomes of a woman, the ovaries of a woman, but outside genitals that appear male. (vice versa)
• Ambiguous genitalia at birth
• Micropenis
• Clitoromegaly (an enlarged clitoris)
• Partial labial fusion
• Undescended testes (which may turn out to be ovaries) in boys
• Labial or inguinal (groin) masses -- which may turn out to be testes -- in girls
• Hypospadias [the opening of the penis is somewhere other than at the tip; in females, the urine canal opens into the vagina
• Unusual appearing genitalia at birth
• Delayed or absent puberty
• Unexpected changes at puberty
WWW.ISNA.ORG
40. Causes
• XX Intersex : female foetus having been exposed to excess male
hormones before birth.
• XY intersex : The person has the chromosomes of a man, but the
external genitals are incompletely formed, ambiguous, or clearly
female.
• True Gonadal Intersex . Here the person has both ovarian and
testicular tissues. In this case the person might have one ovary and
one testis.
• Complex or Undetermined Intersex Disorders of Sexual
Development : both cases have an extra sex chromosome, either
an X or a Y. Have XXX or XXY chromosomes.
Nytimes.com
41. Treatment
• Child should assign a gender as quickly as possible (based on the
external genitals rather than the chromosomal gender)
• Prompt surgeries are often recommended
• Ovaries or testicle tissues from the other gender would be removed
• Easier to reconstruct female genitalia than functioning male
genitalia
• If the "correct" choice is not clear, the child is often assigned to be a
girl. (easier)

44. Transsexuals
Transsexualism describes the condition in which an
individual identifies with a gender inconsistent or not
culturally associated with their assigned sex, i.e. in which a
person's assigned sex at birth conflicts with their
psychological gender.
Gender not associated to the gender they feel they are.
Transsexualism describes the condition in which an
individual identifies with a gender inconsistent or not
culturally associated with their assigned sex, i.e. in which a
person's assigned sex at birth conflicts with their
psychological gender.
45. Transsexual Women
• A male-to-female (MTF) transsexual woman
(trans woman) is someone who was labelled
male at birth but has a female gender identity,
and therefore changes to live completely and
permanently as a woman.
• Transsexual women can be distinguished from
other transgender people by the extremely
strong need which transsexual women have to
live completely and permanently as women in
contrast to their original birth label of male.
46. Transsexual Men
• A female-to-male (FTM) transsexual man (trans man) is
someone who was labelled female at birth but has a
male gender identity, and therefore transitions to live
completely and permanently as a man.
• Transsexual men seek to bring their physical bodies and
gender expressions into better accordance with their
strong gender identities so that their identities as men
finally become clearly visible to their friends, families
and colleagues. However, some may be restricted by
their personal or social circumstances in their ability to
achieve this. Transsexual men often experience
significant emotional distress, usually referred to as
gender dysphoria, if unable to live fully as men
http://scottishtrans.org/Page/Transsexual_Wo
men.aspx
47. Trans-phobia
• Definition: Tranphobia is an irrational fear of, and/or
hostility towards, people who are transgender or who
otherwise transgress traditional gender norms. Because
lesbians and gay men often transgress gender norms, it is
often associated with homophobia.
• The cause of transphobia is still a subject of research and
debate, but it likely reflects the fragile nature of gender
identity
• People who are quietly struggling with their own gender
identity, and people for whom gender identity is especially
important, might be frightened--even angry--when
confronted with the fragility of gender.
48. Trans-phobia
• Transphobia refers to the fear, hatred of and
prejudice against people who are transsexual
or transgender
• If you live with a disability, transphobia results
in very particular kinds of barriers to sexual
expression, which includes the way you
experience and express your gender identity.
49.
50. Social Justice Terms
Working Terms and Definitions
• Androgyne: A person with physical traits of male
and female.
• Biphobia: Fear or hatred of people who are
bisexual, pansexual, omnisexual, or
nonmonosexual. Biphobia is closely linked with
transphobia and homophobia.
• Sexism: The cultural, institutional, and individual
set of beliefs and practices that privilege men,
subordinate women, and denigrate values and
practices associated with women.

61. What channel would it be put on and why?
• We would choose channel 4 because
their documentaries are usually aimed
at an audience who are aged 16+
• Also their documentaries are mostly
participatory and informative and
that’s what our one is
62. What time would it be on and why?
• The time we would be showing it at would be
9 o’clock as there would be explicit content
and a subject that may be too much for
people aged under 16
• Also children who come back from school
would normally watch from 4-7 so they would
be asleep for when this documentary would
be showing.
