How To Talk About Gender

In this episode, you’ll hear from the wonderful Ran Courant-Morgan, Manager of Parent Education at Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts. Ran brings a very special dose of magic to their education work with parents, caregivers, and direct care professionals. In this episode Ran and host Christine Koh talk about how our culture is learning a new language and a new way to think about gender, how to practice using they/them pronouns, why it’s important to meet kids where they are at when it comes to conversations about sex and gender, and more.
