Alexander

-This shows what he would do and go through to be who he wants to be and how people react to it.
-This shows how he is happy with all he’s doing and wants to continue but on the other hand he didn’t know if he
should continue because of his family.
-This provides you with a idea on how to try stepping in another’s shoes mostly the opposite gender.
-You get to understand whet exactly he’s wanting to do and were he’s getting at.
-Califia-Rice’s life seemed strange to them, even as they applauded his willingness to undergo hormone treatments and suffer the taunts and harassment of those who do not understand his life.
-“When I think that I can continue with this process - get chest surgery and pass as a male – I feel happier than at any other point in my life. And when I think that something will stop me, I become very depressed. (family)”
-Virtually assuming another genders perspective, or what you think is another genders perspective for one hour in a classroom may de instructive about many things.
-“Instead of trying to discover what makes a written voice distinctly woman’s, or a man’s, I want to focus on how language can be manipulated to make readers believe that they is a gendered self contained in the margins.”
