Blog 2_Project 1: Art & Activism

To writing the proposal of project 1, I did a large number of research about LGBT group. As I mentioned before, our group’s message is about “are LGBT people able to be hidden or visible in the society?” Thus, our group came up the idea about help LGBT people understand who they are, and do not care about others look and speak for themselves.

While doing the research, I found an article talk about the gender neutral which means use words other than “male” and “female”. The research is talk about a “gender-neutral” pre-school in Sweden. They realized that normal gender are not a good thing, and want to use education to change it. I consider that the reason why the government do this is because parents always want to teach their children what they are, and the government are trying to do the same thing, and they are very popular at this point.

This reminds me of a well-know dancer and host who is the first transgender in China. She has the courage to show her the past, and for the reason why she transfer her gender just because she was curious about women since she was a child and wants to be a woman. She do not care about people looking at them in the very funny way and be brave to be herself. Another research is about a Chinese awareness campaign which is talk about “Love is not a choice.” I believe, being gay is not their choice, this is because they born like this. Hope the world is big enough to accommodate everyone.

This is also point out the theme of our group. From those research, in my point of view, gender is important to everyone, but can not distinguish everyone by gender. When I was a child, I developed a gender concept from my parents. For example, to enter the toilet with men and women signs, or letting me pay attention to the environment and time around and the contact distance with men. It is important to wait for a series of personal safety and spirit to protect myself. But from the research I did I learned gender is not important in some places, such as love, whether male or female, female or female, or male or female, or love without sex. In the love, gender concepts should be abandoned. For example, if you are a boy or a girl, there should be no gender discrimination. As long as the boy’s gender is tied to the child, it is not important to the individual.
