    Reported That More Than Half of All Trans Respondents Felt Personally Discriminated Against Or Harassed Because They Were Perceived As Trans

    CommDH/Speech(2016)2 English only European societies should recognise the full diversity of gender identities Keynote address by Nils Muižnieks Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights European Transgender Council “Transforming Europe – 10 years of movement building” Bologna, 3 June 2016 European societies need to recognise the full diversity of gender identities among their members. Trans people have the right to determine and express their individual gender identity and be fully included in their societies. Recent years have demonstrated that real progress can be made in fulfilling trans people’s human rights. The European Court of Human Rights was instrumental in establishing the right to legal gender recognition in its landmark judgment in the case of Christine Goodwin v. the United Kingdom in 2002. Since then, the focus of discussion and reforms has been put on the conditions for the official recognition of gender identity. The abusive conditions of sterilisation, divorce, and diagnosis of mental disorder have been obstacles to realising the right to self-determination by trans people. In recent years, I have urged legislative reforms through my country monitoring in Croatia, Finland, Ireland, Poland, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia and Ukraine. Fortunately, many countries in Europe have already taken measures to eradicate obstacles to legal gender recognition. A few have taken the further step of providing a simple procedure which is fully based on self-determination. In Denmark, Malta and Ireland even the condition of a medical diagnosis has been abolished. I encourage other member states to follow their example and I know that further reforms are already under way.

    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation : FEMINISM À LA QUEBEC

    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation : FEMINISM À LA QUEBEC: IDEOLOGICAL TRAVELINGS OF AMERICAN AND FRENCH THOUGHT (1960-2010) Geneviève Pagé, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Professor Claire Moses Department of Women’s Studies This dissertation examines the travelings of three concepts central to feminism – gender, queer, and intersectionality – as they move between the United States, France, and Quebec. The concept of gender, central to U.S. feminism, is relatively absent from feminist theory in France and Quebec until the 1990s; rather, drawing on Marxist and existentialist traditions, French and Quebec feminists will deploy the term “rapports sociaux de sexe” to identify that differences among women and men are grounded in social structure and, further, that the two classes, women and men, are constituted in hierarchicized relation. The term queer, linguistically subversive in English but lacking this potential when translated into French, is mainly resisted by French materialist feminists and feminist scholars in Quebec on the basis that it displaces social reality focusing instead on resistance through performance. Nonetheless, in Quebec, activists groups such as Les panthères rose are able to present a version of queer that also addresses systemic oppressions. Finally, the concept of intersectionality, theorized first by feminists of color in the U.S. trying to reconcile their allegiances to multiple struggles, provides a useful tool for analyzing the interaction between different systems of oppression and how they shape the lives of people differently located. In France, a similar desire to theorize multiple oppressions led to the development of the concept of “consubstantialité des rapports sociaux,” whereby social “rapports” of sex and of socio- economic class are co-constituted.

    Suicidality Disparities Between Transgender and Cisgender Adolescents Brian C. Thoma, PhD,a Rachel H. Salk, PhD,a Sophia Choukas-Bradley, PhD,b Tina R. Goldstein, PhD,a Michele D. Levine, PhD,a Michael P. Marshal, PhDa BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Emerging evidence indicates transgender adolescents (TGAs) exhibit abstract elevated rates of suicidal ideation and attempt compared with cisgender adolescents (CGAs). Less is known about risk among subgroups of TGAs because of limited measures of gender identity in previous studies. We examined disparities in suicidality across the full spectrum of suicidality between TGAs and CGAs and examined risk for suicidality within TGA subgroups. METHODS: Adolescents aged 14 to 18 completed a cross-sectional online survey (N = 2020, including 1148 TGAs). Participants reported gender assigned at birth and current gender identity (categorized as cisgender males, cisgender females, transgender males, transgender females, nonbinary adolescents assigned female at birth, nonbinary adolescents assigned male at birth, and questioning gender identity). Lifetime suicidality (passive death wish, suicidal ideation, suicide plan, suicide attempt, and attempt requiring medical care) and nonsuicidal self-injury were assessed. RESULTS: Aggregated into 1 group, TGAs had higher odds of all outcomes as compared with CGAs. Within TGA subgroups, transgender males and transgender females had higher odds of suicidal ideation and attempt than CGA groups. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we used comprehensive measures of gender assigned at birth and current gender identity within a large nationwide survey of adolescents in the United States to examine suicidality among TGAs and CGAs. TGAs had higher odds of all suicidality outcomes, and transgender males and transgender females had high risk for suicidal ideation and attempt.
