性愛対象・性別の違和感について相談できる施設をもっと増やそう。

はじめて参加する方へ 

 「親に嘘ついて参加するように」ってどこに書いてあるのか? 

  にじーずはこんな場所です
Q.保護者はオープンデーに参加できますか A.申し訳ございませんが、にじーずは同世代の参加者どうしが安心して交流できる場を大切にしているため、大人の方はご参加いただけません。ご理解いただけると幸いです。なお会場内には入れませんが、送り迎えをすることは可能です

 

まあ、親として普通どんな運営なのか、ある日のある会場の雰囲気をぼかし入れて録画でみてみたい気もする人もいるだろうな。

Autism and gender identity Gender identity and biological sex are different things. People are usually assigned a sex at birth according to their genitalia – male or female.

Compared to controls, one study found that children and teenagers with diagnosed autism spectrum disorder were 7.59 times more likely to express gender variance, as reported by parents.




Potential Reasons for Higher Rates of Gender Identity Diversity With Autistic Individuals

There’s no clear answer for why there is an increased incidence of gender diversity among people with autism as compared with neurotypical individuals. Researchers do have some hypotheses, which include:

Difficulty socializing.
For people on the autism spectrum, socializing and communicating are more difficult in general. Finding ways to socialize with people in minority gender groups could be a greater challenge, and gender self-esteem is lower in groups stigmatized by society.
Difficulty fitting in.
Those who are gender-diverse may be more likely to report higher rates of autistic traits due to long-standing experiences and feelings of “not fitting in socially.”
Less conformity.
Researchers from the 2020 study note that “autistic individuals may conform less to societal norms compared to non-autistic individuals, which may partly explain why a greater number of autistic individuals identify outside the stereotypical gender binary.” This is sometimes referred to as the “theory of mind differences,” which suggests that people with autism are less influenced by social rules and norms. As a result, they are more likely to express their gender variance compared to neurotypical people.
 Brain development.
The researchers also note that prenatal mechanisms that shape brain development may be at play, but that research on this is needed. 

Gender and sexuality in autism, explained

BY LAURA DATTARO  /  18 SEPTEMBER 2020

 Why is the prevalence of gender diversity higher in autistic people than in the general population?

Social experiences are likely a main component, experts say. Compared with neurotypical people, autistic people may be less influenced by social norms and so may present their internal selves more authentically. “You could then understand the co-occurrence as perhaps a more honest expression of underlying experiences,” says John Strang, director of the Gender and Autism Program at Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C.


It’s possible that autistic people may come to conclusions about their sexual identity differently than neurotypical people do, says Jeroen Dewinter, senior researcher at Tilburg University in the Netherlands. Some autistic people have told him they would be likely to identify as bisexual after one same-sex sexual experience, but neurotypical people may be less likely to adopt that terminology based on a single same-sex encounter.


Biological factors may also play a role. Exposure levels to hormones such as testosterone in the womb may be linked to autism, some research shows; increased prenatal testosterone may also lead to more typically ‘male’ behaviors and to less common sexualities and gender identities, although there is some evidence against that link9,10. Regardless, prenatal testosterone does not explain why autistic people assigned male at birth might identify as more feminine, Dewinter says. But the biology of sexuality and gender in the general population is not well understood either.


 おもしろいね。


 脳やホルモンの影響についてはまだ、未解明だが、影響があるかも、と。

 また、自閉傾向がある子どもたちは一般の社会規範とか社会の区分けに無頓着というか影響を受けない傾向があるから、 男とか女とかの社会的区分に影響をうけないため性的マイノリティーが多いのかも、と。さらに、性的マイノリティーも社会になじめないために自閉的な傾向を感じるのかも、と。

 いずれにせよ、社会的性別はある個体に固定的に絶対的に帰属するものではなく、多少流動的にとくに思春期にはゆらぎはありえる。

 


He told the BBC: "Some children have got the double problem of living with the wrong treatment, and the original problems weren't addressed - with complex problems like trauma, depression, large instances of autism."

A Stonewall spokesperson said: "The creation of new specialist regional centres in London and Manchester next year, with more to follow, will go some way to addressing the strain experienced by having just a single, centralised service."


 NHS child gender clinic: Staff concerns 'shut down'

Puberty blockers stop a young person's body developing breasts, periods, facial hair or a deeper voice.


Recently updated NHS guidance on puberty blockers acknowledges that little is known about their long-term effects, or what impact they might have on children's brains and bones


NHS England says young people should only be referred for this treatment after a minimum of three sessions.


However, the review heard from several staff that one member of the GIDS leadership, Sarah Davidson, would sometimes refer children for treatment after only one or two appointments.


"Absolutely it should never happen because this is a pathway that will lead to huge, huge changes for this young person, potentially, infertility," one GIDS clinician said.

そんな状態で簡単な診断で長期的な影響がどうなるかわからない2次性徴抑制ホルモンなど投与するのはあぶないんじゃないか、と。

ーー例えば、生まれが女で性自認が男子の場合、男子の格好させて男子として行動させるのはいいとして、医学的な介入というのは成人になってから、本人に決めさせるというのでもいいかもしれないね。

 で、最初の「にじーず」にもどると、別にLGBTになることを強要しているわけでも推奨しているわけでもなく、もしかしてLGBTかもしれない人たちについてもしそうなら、それを素直に肯定できるような環境を整備しているわけじゃないの?

 いずれにせよ、こういう揺らぎにある若い人たちについてきめ細かく相談に応じてもらえる施設がもっと必要。

 イギリスでもそういう医療施設が増える方向になっている、という話がBBCの記事
