Hadas Kotek 🦄 (she/her)Best book review I’ve ever seen
taedryn 🏳️⚧️To give you an idea of what gender dysphoria feels like, imagine you're a gentleman and everyone knows it. Yet at the cafe, the waiter approaches you and says, "What can I get you ladies?" Maybe with a little sneer. And he keeps saying it, even if you correct him. It feels pretty crappy. And it's so easy to just use the correct pronouns, which makes everyone happy.
If someone asks you to use pronouns that don't fit how you see them, making that small change will mean a lot.
theADHDacademicFor all of the academics on here who are learning about #accessibility and adding image descriptions, please take that inclusive energy with you the next time a student gives you their accommodation letter from the disability office or when you're considering your attendance policy.
Even better, consider reading up about #UniversalDesignForLearning or #UDL.
