Primitive Christianity Revived, Again
Peterson raised an interesting question on Facebook, and I thought it would be a good discussion for us to have here, too. His question,"What shall we do with all these GLb(t) organizations?", lifts up the concern that amongst organizations which describe themselves as "GLBT", it is common that only gay and lesbian people will be fully included, while bisexuals will be "kind of" included, and transgender people will not really be at all. The discussion left me inspired to articulate some queries with which I have long since been dancing in this community, and once again I wish to invite you all to dance with me and my F/friendly queries. :)
- What is your vision of a fully transgender-inclusive organization? What would that organization be doing? How would we evaluate that this organization had reached the same level of inclusiveness for transgender people as it had for gay, lesbian, and bisexual people?
- In what ways do you feel that FLGBTQC has been successful in becoming a more fully transgender-inclusive organization?
- In what ways do you feel that we could be more inclusive of transgender people in the FLGBTQC community?
- What impact do you see FLGBTQC having currently on the inclusion of transgender people in the Quaker world (Meetings or churches, FGC, FUM, Quaker service organizations)? What is your vision of how we could have an even greater impact?
Please, respond to any of these queries which speaks to you, or to another to which you find yourself led. This is not a "survey" or assignment where you need to answer all the questions in essay form --just an invitation to some electronic worship sharing. :)
- How has the ministry of FLGBTQC with regard to transgender people influenced you personally? How has your personal ministry influenced the FLGBTQC community's inclusion of transgender people? (Yes, this question is flip-floppable!)
