“…Die vielschichtige Bedeutung des Internet als «main incubator» (Shapiro 2004) für queere Bewegungen hingegen bestätigen aktuelle internationale Studien wie zum Beispiel Vijlbrief, Saharso und Ghorashi: «In particular, the internet as a safe space for trans individuals has become significantly important for expanding their networks and educating themselves (and others) (Shapiro, 2004). It has also served as a means of negotiating identities (Paradis 2016) and as a place to ‹try out or test different identities› (Robinson u. a. 2014, 32) […] This is also the case for non-binary identities and their narratives (Smith u. a.…”

Ausgehend von den sich wandelnden medialen und kommunikativen Praktiken von queeren Jugendlichen geht es hier um den Versuch, Spielräume von nicht-binären Verhaltenscodes und Gegen-Erzählungen aufzuzeigen, die sich online eröffnen. Nicht-binär (oder non-binary) ist eine Selbstbezeichnung von Personen, die sich ausserhalb der binären Geschlechterordnung verorten, die also weder (nur) weiblich, noch (nur) männlich sind. Fraglich ist, wie angesichts eines dominanten Geschlechterregimes, das auf einer kurz nach der Geburt erfolgten Geschlechtszuweisung und Heterosexualität beruht, in den betrachteten Videos davon abweichend Selbst- und Fremdbestimmung verhandelt werden. Wie lassen sich nicht-binäres Wissen und Selbstbewusstsein in eigenproduzierten Kurzvideos vermitteln? Inwieweit findet bei den sich darin artikulierenden Jugendlichen Anpassung und inwieweit Subversion statt? Und perspektivisch betrachtet: Welche Rolle kann das Internet als Handlungsraum für non-binary Jugendliche spielen?

“…When considering the transgender subgroup only, this gap is even more pronounced. Research about the experiences of teachers and teacher candidates regarding teacher perceptions of K-12 LGBTQ youth has been published in recent years (see Bloomfield & Fisher, 2016;Greytak & Kosciw, 2014;Fisher & Kennedy, 2012;Kitchen & Bellini, 2012). However, there is little research on the experience of transgender educators attempting to navigate the professional environment (Linda McCarthy's 2003 exploratory case study is a notable exception).…”

“…Whereas once all teachers were white and female, now it is commonplace to find a variety of races, ethnicities, and both males and females working side by side in public schools. This acceptance has extended to gay and lesbian teachers as well, albeit to a lesser degree; many gay and lesbian teachers feel pressured to hide their sexual orientation, both in the United States (Bloomfield & Fisher, 2016;Machado, 2014) and abroad (Schneider & Dimito, 2010;Irwin, 2002). Unlike race or ethnicity, sexual orientation is not as easily determined by a quick look or glance, especially if the individual adheres to an accepted dress code.…”

As transgender individuals receive more attention nationwide, it is only a matter of time before increased numbers of transgender educators seek placement in teacher education programs, and eventually, employment as teachers. Given the high levels of discrimination against transgender individuals historically, it is reasonable that P–12 school leaders and educator preparation programs (EPPs) would seek to proactively determine obstacles that may exist when placing transgender teacher candidates (and future employees) in schools for field experiences. The researchers for this study engaged in a qualitative approach, interviewing 14 school leaders in seven different districts on their attitudes regarding field placement and possible hiring of transgender teacher candidates. Emerging themes noted that while school leaders expressed an appreciation for diversity, they believed the presence of a transgender teacher candidate would stimulate resistance in their local communities. Further comments by participants indicated a need for training to provide leaders with guidance on navigating these issues, as well as training to better understand the transgender experience.

It has also served as a means of negotiating identities (Paradis, 2016) and as a place to "try out or test different identities" (Robinson, Bansel, Denson, Ovenden, & Davies, 2014, p. 32). Furthermore, the online realm is increasingly used for stimulating collective identity and is therefore important in developing a sense of belonging and engaging in activism.…”

This qualitative study discusses the experienced identity of gender non-binary young adults. Despite growing positive discourse in the Netherlands toward gender minorities, in practice this group still faces exclusion and stigmatization of their identity. This article draws from Butler's (2004Butler's ( , 2011 conceptions of deconstructing the hegemonic gender binary and heteronormativity. It explores the layered experiences of gender non-binary young adults in Amsterdam. Through participatory observations and in-depth interviews, this investigation unravels the self-narratives of those who identify with non-binary gender identities and demonstrates how they cope with their minority identity and resist exclusion.
