However, many reporters, editors and producers continue to face challenges covering these issues in a complex, often rhetorically charged, climate. Media coverage of LGBT people has become increasingly multi-dimensional, reflecting both the diversity of our community and the growing visibility of our families and our relationships. As a result, reporting that remains mired in simplistic, predictable “pro-gay”/”anti-gay” dualisms does a disservice to readers seeking information on the diversity of opinion and experience within our community. Misinformation and misconceptions about our lives can be corrected when journalists diligently research the facts and expose the myths (such as pernicious claims that gay people are more likely to sexually abuse children) that often are used against us.

Tips for Making GSA's Inclusive for Youth With
Tips for Making GSA’s Inclusive for Youth with LGBTQ Parents There is a long history of youth with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or queer parents being involved with Gay Straight Alliances. In fact, the very first GSA club was started by a straight daughter of lesbian moms with her LGBT peers and teacher because she was sick of hearing homophobia comments in the hallways. She understood that anti-gay words, harassment and discrimination directly impacted her as someone with LGBTQ parents. Youth involved in COLAGE are still today actively involved in GSA clubs all over the country. Both straight-identified and LGBTQ youth who have one or more LGBTQ parents bring leadership, unique perspectives and intimate knowledge of the harmful effects of homophobia and transphobia to student clubs. At the same time, GSAs do not always acknowledge or embrace the unique experiences of LGBTQ-parented students. Ruby from California shared, “I actually started my GSA as the daughter of lesbian moms. But I was one of the only people in it who had LGBTQ parents. COLAGErs {ie. people with one or more LGBTQ parents} didn’t feel like they had a place. The emphasis was on queer youth and straight allies and it wasn’t clear where COLAGErs would fit in.” Often youth with LGBTQ parents feel that they straddle a unique position within the community. Because they may have grown up immersed in gay culture and community and because they are impacted by homophobia and transphobia in very personal and unique ways, COLAGErs often report that the term “straight ally” doesn’t feel like it fits their roles and potential contributions to GSAs and other queer organizations.

Kids of Trans Resource Guide
by Monica Canfi eld-Lenfest A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR Spring 2008 Dear Friend, Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Monica, and my father is a transgender woman who transitioned from male to female ten years ago, when I was 17 years old. Until five years ago, I had never met another person with a similar experience. Thanks to COLAGE and the work I’ve been doing to build our Kids of Trans Program, I now know quite a few people with trans parents and even more transgender people. When my dad first came out to me, she handed me a pamphlet about transgender people. I never read the pamphlet because I didn’t want more information about her; I wanted to know what this all meant for me. Where was the “Your dad just came out as trans… Now what?” booklet that I so desperately needed? I wanted someone to tell me what to expect, how to talk about it, and assure me that there were other people out there with similar experiences. This resource guide encompasses each of these elements as well as other important aspects of having one or more transgender or gender variant parent(s). From October 2007 through May 2008, COLAGE hosted me as their Kids of Trans Fellow, to expand the KOT Program and create this resource guide. COLAGE is a national movement of children, youth and adults with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or queer parents. We build community and work toward social justice through youth empowerment, leadership development, education, and advocacy.
