-Definitions that we covered:
- Asexual: Experiencing no or little sexual interest in anyone
- Cisgender: Someone whose gender identity matches his or her biological sex; anyone who is not transgender.
- Gender expression: How each person manifests gender; could be tied to the individual’s gender identity or could be a social construct.
- Gender fluid: Not identifying as any particular gender.
- Heteronormative: The idea that there are only two genders/sexualities, i.e., male and female, and that everyone falls into either of those categories; considered oppressive and restricting.
- Non-binary: Identifying as something other than the traditional binary genders of male and female.
- Pansexual (“pan”): Someone who is attracted to any kind of gender or sexual identity.
Jim & Jill Karch join us and talk about the importance of pouring into our relationship with God so that we can pour into others.
