ABSTRACT Increasing numbers of youth are beginning to come out and transition while in college. This qualitative study examines the perspectives of male-to-female (MTF) and female-to-male (FTM) transgender students as they reflect upon the reactions of family and friends. While friends tended to be supportive, parents often had a negative reaction to their children coming out as transgender and sought to dissuade the students from transitioning. The study participants who were pre-transition and living part time as their self-identified gender often felt that the reactions of others reinforced their sense of not being normal. The students who had moved into living full time as their self-identified gender began to feel some sense of normalcy in their lives.

ABSTRACT Trans youth are considered one of the most marginalized and oppressed populations. Many experience transphobia and violence based on their gender identity and expression. This qualitative study describes the school experiences of 24 trans youth in Philadelphia and presents their recommendations for school administrators and educators. To effectively provide a safe learning environment for all students, it is imperative that the voices and experiences of trans youth are heard by education professionals and reflected in their policies and practices.

ABSTRACT Juxtaposing scholarly studies of flogging and anti-flogging treatises with a study of educational reform in eighteenth century Europe, I offer a conceptual montage in which the discursive formation of the “child” becomes splintered, disclosing, I suggest, degraded forms of desire in adult fears of caretakers' seduction of children. “Study” provided sites of sexualized rites of passage in which adult caretakers' vigilance seemed to stimulate what it was intended to prevent. Conscious of this visible/invisible binary in the discursive formation of the “child,” might caretakers be less likely to perform the disavowed desire they are supposed to suppress?

ABSTRACT This first essay presents and reviews a collection of six videotapes produced over the past decade that focus primarily on bullying, homophobia, and LGBTQ youth. The second review details a video resource for librarians and those supportive of non-censorship of library resources to provide materials and services to GLBT&Q adolescents.

ABSTRACT This essay explores contemporary accounts of the significance of the Internet and the intersections of these cyberspace narratives with theoretical and material construals of queer identity, agency, and community. The author discusses evidence of the ongoing mediative role of artifacts in the fashioning of identity in community in order to explore the notion that queer is always-already virtual.

ABSTRACT Using the first phase of a longitudinal study of student leaders of the 2002 Midwest Bi-, Lesbian, Gay, Transgender and Allies College Conference (MBLGTACC), the authors explore the intersections of involvement in identity-specific leadership activities and development of LGBT/Queer identity. LGBT leadership experiences appear to have contributed substantively to the identity development of these college students. Based on this finding, the authors propose implications for improved educational practice and areas for future research.

ABSTRACT The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB Act) contains several provisions that affect the treatment of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth and LGBT issues in America's public schools. School choice and voucher provisions could cause both students and resources to be shifted to private and religious schools that are not subject to inclusive state nondiscrimination and anti-harassment policies. For the first time in three decades, the NCLB Act allows federal funds to be used for the creation of single-sex schools and classrooms, despite research on the mixed impact of sex-segregated schools on gender development and self-esteem. The NCLB Act's focus on standardized testing also leaves no room for LGBT issues in curricula. Internet filtering provisions prevent LGBT youth from accessing critical information, and some filtering software reflects ideological biases. Parental rights provisions, including “no promo homo” language, may interfere with research, anti-homophobia programs, or sex education. Finally, provisions that reinforce the right of the Boy Scouts and the U.S. military to meet in public schools despite their discriminatory policies are legally redundant and send a federally mandated message of intolerance.
