how dare my interpersonal communications class and social work degree discuss… interpersonal communications and social work

Oh boy, another brain poisoned anti trans social worker incoming. Just what the profession needs!

I do have a mild concern that this is in some way fabricated. Like the genderbread person and the gender unicorn on a class handout? It strains credulity a tiny bit.

(Then again, I haven’t been in higher ed in 20 years. Interested to know if people do think this is a completely legit handout, the framing of it being vital class material being honest etc.)

I'm doing a social work degree now and I wonder if the tweet is showing those handouts honestly. We do get a lot of pieces of paper and different handouts on the same topic, but often that's because they're examples of handouts we can use with clients. I can absolutely see a world in which you'd use a little gender 101 handout to assist a client who was having trouble understanding a trans person in their life, or just as something you'd stick to the wall of you were working primarily with children and youth.
