hours plus preparation time on the day before course i try on the outfits then i have to shave here and there was a c.n.n. hero as old so all in all it takes half a day but it's always fun painting on your own face is also an art form really thing and i can exist home tomorrow honey const far. we have company ben through the art history museum in vienna. the art historian also office going to tools as a drag queen. a form of performance that uses the stylistic device of exaggeration to blood gender roles it's. just something on my hand when i do this in a museum i have the undivided attention and enthusiasm of the people because they have come especially because of me but in the subway or the tram it's a bit more mixed some people are totally upset others find it super to tavist that
11:18 am
i'm not if you go home for instance with some you can tell that they even feel uncomfortable and don't like it but all in all i still find it important that i do it even if the reactions are not consistently positive because i think that we should not push ourselves too strongly into any roles to stock enigma she horan took in sort then in civilian clothes the twenty six year old german has been working at the art history museum since two thousand and sixteen not only when they struck queen towards the on a mediator as a stablished something new he had in order to question typical gender concepts. as a child i really like to play with dolls and polly pocket and shotgun it in combat gotten mitten and then made lots and i love playing with dolls with the other girls in kindergarten and legal dispirit but i also like to play lego with the boys and build some rocket launching airplanes so i would say i was somehow opened for both

11:20 am
speculated whether their boy is girls and mixed and most people say well the boy is the one with the brown hair on the girl is the one with the blond hair and of course the boy is a prankster and the girl is acting coyly the boy forces the girl to do something she doesn't want the whole thing is of course problematic one could say the poor girl but on the other hand if it's wonderfully into the gender stereotypes we already have so although we can't rationally determine the sex of the two most people assume that it has to be a boy and a girl. calvin
11:21 am
had to steam i think most people today understand that when i walk around like this i don't want to be a woman but rather how sick she will character to somehow and looks wild and interesting be viewed and listened but i do believe that drags the possibility for many people to try out their own gender identity. that is yeah i expected him to take hours to call for ben drac is disguising himself again with identity an art form and does not contradict the fact that he enjoys being a mound just interests of mission and i find it quite casual that i have the great privilege as a man to just do my hair a little and it'll do that's super easy going to something easy go working. the boundaries between masculinity and femininity have always been blood the so-called in between i eat into general people is also

a theme in mythology and to. and things of athena get this on a planet in this cabinet there was a small gentleman with the hermaphrodite has a mythological figure from greek roman antiquity which has sexual characteristics of both sexes last and in those days there were men and women and people in between things. and it is also interesting that such a generous were worn as pieces of jewelry so it was nothing strange one wanted to keep away from itself as one from this found hiding void. for a long time the world was divided into man and woman pink and sky blue whoever is different did not exist in official documents at the end of two thousand and seventeen the federal constitutional court in germany makes a groundbreaking building not taking the third option into account contradicts the
11:23 am
personal rights of intersexual people. the debate has long since brought and for example whether there should also be a third torrid pace causes heated debates especially among people who are not affected by it. yes i'm up next on some google plus that income but i don't miss or to be close on the benchtop piece and the i'm not going to decide what about would be behind it because she does so and so. it helps give the seat and he thought that so i knew i didn't belong i wasn't a real woman because. he thought if i'm honest i thought maybe i'm not a gender at all i might. come on. being a flake dos does what was my worst fought to get oh maybe i'm nothing windings.
11:24 am
in austria almost everyone knows the story of the speech he will champion was actually a man the a legit daughter of corinthian farmers was born in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight with unclear gender characteristics and thus into gender really into sexual are people who cannot be clearly classified into the categories male and female with regard to internal and external sexual organs chromosomes all hormonal structure. up to one point seven percent of the world's population are born this way according to the u.n. . coming in and i think and i remember when i was a little kid in our attic they had a collection of clothes i was so happy there and i dressed like a boy i was as full of vendome gets all. if i put on my pants up there and everything after three or four times the clothes had disappeared the attic was
11:25 am

11:26 am
the sea of oily. sea yeah like this role this erica roll i couldn't play it one hundred percent because it was only an acting role i was only shown how a girl moves gets egged on b.c. i made me. a real girl moves differently though the soviets did say that those only now i see how i walked with a handbag the quick steps and so does home in what they call a get in with a colleague showed me how to behave correctly the fact that you give us enough these are the mafia ultimate of other commenters touch and then name a him but they no. longer coming to. visit to his hands and say hey. you know it's. male female that was not. even korea to she not got front of the austrian national team after puberty his breasts did not grow and his
11:27 am
menstruation did not begin. simply given to them and the worst looks were those of the men opposite really so i never wanted to become a man because they insulted me how can you now take on the other side of the sex. constantly it's stuff donna said it is his gift nathan. in all to ninety sixty seven all runners of the v. the austrian ski association would check by means of a chromosome test the result erica was genetically clearly a man according to she the v. wanted to persuade him to change his gender to a woman but above all the o.s.b. did not want to be deprived of the gold medal.
11:28 am
miss it at. and that if these make it the ground had been pulled out from under my feet but i knew that only in sport i was some hack i was acknowledged otherwise i was a juxtaposition the one they smiled at point the fingers asking are you a man or a woman say five beastly it's amanda that they'll have it. against the resistance of the family on the national ski association every country somebody to have a male genitals surgically corrected. at the age of twenty you look up began a new life as it. they
11:29 am
used to think of me as an ugly duckling and suddenly i was a handsome young man with a short haircut maybe bordeaux but quick first my hair stood like that on the end like that on my sleeve cut. and of course at the i had a porsche because if i. had a new nine eleven and a great col shunsuke only had a nine twelve i mean i do know that there is a big difference in the stock wasn't the c.d.'s or that i'm for each boy demand me bass so i wanted to strengthen my personal i wanted to show that i'm a real man and many only wanted that and in public it was presented differently i was the big macho at least two or three girls at night but it was a nice time anyway great to have i seen it said lots of. but it sounds like maybe the six dead on the a for erica has been removed to turn it to eric. organized.
11:30 am
this. eastgate after strawson when i'm walking on the street and if someone shouts behind me erica granted i can't control myself that quickly and turn around erica as a part of. i did this is the end a case by me yet even though. even if she is a three time grandfather and married for the second time he only had surgery at the age of nineteen and. many into sexual children are still operated on immediately after birth without any medical necessity many suffer for the rest of the launch. that he says of the in five it is better to wait until puberty pain and let the person decide for oneself with the support that the it s. than than the b.s. zone in chain. because only they know yet what's inside them i can
11:31 am
tell you whatever i like yeah whether you will understand it is a different matter he can and who i am by says so all of you have to feel something like that and that something else is on the us. s. to lead. acid we must get it. this is first life as erika that was embarrassing honey i didn't want to know anything about this life today at seventeen each time i proud of this life that was childhood sport i was supported on all sides but he's been noticed it's that i didn't say him spank me in my second life i mean my name was a big obstacle and i was kicked with feet and hands these known pain get paid if i had to go i wasn't allowed to be anything anywhere and i think i was even more
11:32 am
harm than at first mere. get serious. but. i've made it.
11:33 am
to. you can currently choose from sixty sexes on facebook more and more young people describe themselves as gender fluid so they see the gender boundaries fluently. but what does this mean for the language. business whether older be a strength a brutal full contact sport. i tried yoga it wasn't possible because i was fat. and happy it's a new i tried swimming for the elderly but that didn't work because it confused them so much that i was so young. all that stuff
11:34 am
that just didn't fit and this fit. as was a relative is the case in roller derby that there. the task for everybody that also enriches a team it's not like some sports for example ice dancing you need a certain body shape to do it and that's not the case with roller derby i think that's how it starts as a sport that celebrates different body shapes that different body shapes are ok all at once in the changing room at the stomach. before men or kids and of a mind. somebody even at the time of recruiting when we were asked to join in it was clearly stated it's for people who locate beyond the binary gender scheme being anxious she must show up and it's extremely beneficial to hear this an acceptance of the fact that
11:35 am
this exists. extreme for tones. cut to identify it's not as a man or a woman and describes herself as not binary content originally from germany lives with the charles and partner in vienna when asked about the gender role three point three percent of the german population recently stated that they were neither male nor female man or woman this is usually not a question for the majority of society. you are used to this info in forms even if the possibility of a third option is dismissed as unimportant for many to cut it as a central thing of identity. means need to reach to history if it's not so important i wonder why when i buy a shampoo somewhere it says it's for women or for men so it's not the same for everyone. does this move by good employer that with every stupid form even if you
11:36 am
fill in the address when ordering caps you have to write mr or mrs and it's a mandatory field that you fill out this form of address and you only have these two options you go to the toilet and have to identify yourself as either male or female i mean i wouldn't have any problem with having a feeling that i'm not accepted the way i am if it weren't for the strict classification categories induced and it. i. show that chest all back i used to fend off opponents slips broken elbows and sprained ankles a part of the game. i. was
11:37 am
a typical female sport. i think this question is a bit difficult what is typically female we are just people who play a full contact sport and of course it's rough because it's a full contact sport. i manipulate yes of course for historical reasons i don't know why one sees women as the weaker sex and i don't see the reason the second company we play it so it's typically female i say so too. sports is also understood by its operators as a statement against prevailing gender cliches the club is the only team worldwide to have its own male cheerleader troop to children. and when i go to a sports store and i want to buy clothes for sports and men's department is loose a wad comfortable to wear in women's sports trousers are all like these yoga pants
11:38 am
and that's very tight you can see every bit of fat and everything if i move around in it i know it is all i'm much more exposed to as wearing my regular sportswear than on the. the. if i give it to them that's the question we throw back to the audience why do you think it's funny when men do it but completely normal when women stand up on stage for an audience more or less in the tightest outfits and the crowd yells and all hues of the finished end and steve many. didn't get seen for if we were doing halftime football somewhere in the state league match right now i don't know if the reaction would be so positive i think we're in a little bubble at the role there to be right now if you can was
11:39 am
the. with the third option besides men and women it is also possible for kut-o. to choose the third gender and tree in the civil status register. i want to make an application as soon as i can and i don't know whether it'll be possible because i live abroad but i'm planning to but it's not about wanting to be someone special or being a special snowflake or extremely different from everyone else but it's just the way i am on the little saw obvious he said soviet spin and i think it's much more pleasant to have people accepted than having to explain it all the time and have to take myself out of a kind of normality that is constructed there that just works within a binary gender scheme to which i don't belong. to something each of them sang. how discuss i want to be addressed. and it's just to be honest i haven't found
11:40 am
a solution in german it's relatively simple in english most people use they or i ask them to use it and that feels good and it's difficult in german at the moment i think it's best if you just take the name so it's just kata. and. sucked. but even in a world that only emanates from men and women it is not always clear how would gender just spelling can be implemented slash in learned all star how can the gender diversity be understood linguistically instead of england only underscores asterisks are now considered to be contemporary in order to represent everyone. who bizarrely meeting we're going to get to live there this just can't see further
11:41 am
this flager should be. going to be hashing them both first and last of act like i was invited in to speak to a four inch straightness hot dog in a box and it lies to the world like this to me that i said it was a martial law i meant to write this leaves. water under the bridge we visit a gender sensitive kindergarten in which there is deliberately knowing that a separate building nor adults called everything totally progressive not at all clothing or even toys have never been so clearly divided into blue for boys and pink for girls logical isn't it and it's not like we're born with a ping gene of course that has now only been invented pink is a color that's great it has signal strength all babies are crawling towards it but boys learn very quickly that this color is not for them it's nonsense to think it's genetic but we are of course promoting it because we've established structures in
11:42 am
our society that have worked well for us how i. hear. the problem is of course not that the choice for girls are paying but that they are never paying for boys that means boys can't play with anything pink what's cute what has to do with now polish or make up were too much and social behavior and these are all things that are only there for girls and when a little boy comes to school or kindergarten with his sisters pink skirt then it's your gay so this little boy learns i can't be girlish i can't be soft i can't be gay and i have to be everything that means i have to be tough i have to be cool i have to show that everything that has to do with girls is not my world. stevie schmidle is mother of two daughters and founder of pink stings germany a numerous projects have one goal to reduce gender stereotypes so that men and women have equal opportunities to criticize sexist at the taunting and to give
11:43 am
children a different image of masculinity and femininity. this is our book david and his pink pony a play that we show at elementary schools to show boys that they can like pink and be soft or are cool stick or not sexy yes sexist no it explains what sexism is and what isn't and very important love pink hate pink vacation. one country thinks that's a. lot especially in times of the me to debate why men discuss that hold the door open for women or not it's understandable that society is completely confused we've had feminism for forty years now that's not much if you look at our cultural history and for the first time men are apparently completely excited and confused because now they say that you can't compliment
11:44 am
a woman anymore and you don't really know what the right man is or what a bright woman is and in this time it's of course a gender marketing which says that pink bobby cars for girls the blue one for the boy which creates an order this reminds us of our own childhood when gender roles were even more divided and it gives parents the feeling hey i'm doing this right i don't confuse my kid when everyone's discussing whether it's good for the kids to be taught something biologically unthought of. many classic toys that used to be gender neutral on no also available in pink and blonde blue the term for this gender marketing the more stereotypical the talk of group can be supply and the more profitable the sales figures think if occasion is extremely lucrative in an industry whose global turnovers estimated at seventy six billion euros. it starts with grimm's fairy tales it starts with princess lily face on every lunch
11:45 am
box or suck and it's always the little girls on all products for girls who always look into the camera or look at the viewer the pirates are always in action on the shampoos the puzzles the toys they're always in action and look forward and think about what their next step is and the little girls always look into the camera with a look at tries to say am i beautiful enough that's something we girls have been taught from an early age or ever since. corporations earn twice as much with special boy and girl sets. the manufacture of the colorful stones and the surely at the time was gender neutral subjects because it was all about one thing building such campaigns are a thing of the past just like the idea that only girls play with dolls a boy stand at the workbench. never the less a blue baby doll sepsis hardly to be found on the market.
11:46 am
or. they. look like they. are playing a limb of the secular goodness and i wouldn't say that we've experienced an insane revolution in kindergartens in recent years. of course in big cities like hamburger vienna there are gender neutral kindergartens but that's not the average many kindergarten still have the doll corner for the girls and the act of one for the boys there's still a lot to be done. as there are definitely more than two genders there are definitely more than the perfect feminine or the perfect masculine and especially people who are either born intersexual transsexual or transgender of course find it incredibly difficult in this world where outside in advertising either the perfect woman in size is thirty four and one hundred seventy six
11:47 am
centimeters tall and lovely smiling or the active man with muscles and strength can be seen we have such clear ideas of these only two ideas of being human that it's very difficult for others not only for trans and injure humans but also for the very normal woman who cannot identify with them or the men to cope with them. giuliana is a trans female the body ones have the characteristics of a mom it's not until two thousand and eighteen that the w.h.o. states being john so i gent it's not a mental illness and playboy germany is proud to have trans women photos recently possible politics and tolerance as a marketing strategy of transgenders don't want to hide it either and physicality plays a big role and how can you make this clear then by exposing yourself that is also
11:48 am
connected with insane courage to really free oneself and to expose oneself and to say that i am now a woman i may have been born and now in other words there was a lot of approval and very much a positive feedback. but there were also fundamentalists on the other side who felt personally attacked that in their awareness of the values. the media response to the playboy type was great but one thing is important for football and she wants to be successful as a woman not just the first transgender model of the playbook it's better because i want to be a normal woman and not in between somehow i don't have that dichotomy madame man well i accept that that's not an accusation not at all but it was very important to me that i was one hundred percent woman. since she can remember she's not been able to identify with her biological six. and six bits and i was six i talked to my mother i told her that i wanted to be
11:49 am
a girl but she already knew it was the cancer types. on it took a load off my mind i cried with relief she was crying i was crying i have combined for life to have a good mind. it's time to say and i never really looked masculine and i always had long hair on the haka based on this would say the school days were not so great. the children get older they get more hurt for they don't think about it i suffered very much that's become. julia and i have slowly adopted her body to her perceived identity first with all moments than with plastic surgery. at sixteen she underwent sex adopting surgery. as
11:50 am
a digital man long and into the sex change in the genital area well i get goose bumps just thinking about it it was horror for me i was bleeding for at least six days and i almost fell into a coma so i don't like to remember that. it went off. as of us. look at it slick as it was so really every day when the nurse came and changed the sheet i could see all the blood and i was afraid i was crying every day i was really afraid for my life you took a vial and. focus and some are even kept. on a fall that is a model and was a candidate for the t.v. shows i'm a celebrity get me out of here and germany's next top model. which most of us because i lost that not that i want everything changed my name my gender and not only on the id but everything and it was.
11:51 am
being a woman can still have economic disadvantages for a long time certain professions were reserved for men and even today management positions are often still purely male to change this the idea of quotas has been around since the nineteen eighties until today this instrument polarizers. this is even smith he studied neuroscience and found at a tech company with this one nobody knows that's how disciplined take just being a woman is economically he experienced it for himself as a woman. so . i certainly remember this one. and this is my mother's
11:52 am
house she still lives there me as a very little kid shortly after kindergarten i was already becoming very disconnected from everything around me. but it's hard to to not think sympathetic things about this kid. today she is a neuroscientist university professor and berkeley data specialist tech entrepreneur and assault off to speak at conferences worldwide. it wasn't until the mid thirty's that she decided to have a sex changed depression even homelessness the road to her outing in two thousand and five was rocky. a train best photo and message. was.
11:53 am
twenty years insomnia and. eating disorders and self loathing and then one night i told my then fiance. completely out of the not intending anything to come from you want to know my secret is that i wish i was a woman. they are still married today making first group last thirty kilos and at first women's clothes only at home only when the wife was pregnant with their second child did she start hormone treatment. after truly made a big impact on me you know some things were more modest or subtle like in the sense that is really a good thing like the fact that i'd be doing the dishes and then suddenly i'd find
11:54 am
i just crying you know like i was going through a second puberty and and my wife is pregnant and i'm going to puberty and it was amazing i'd break out laughing all the time and i could just express emotions that i just never could express when i was a man and i loved that i loved being much more open and we meet them at a conference in stockholm she talks about her latest tech not logical developments such as smartphone apps with artificial intelligence or big data analysis and about the difference of entering the world as man or woman because she knows but in this world as a woman she receives less money from investors for startups and is taken less seriously especially in the technology industry. the amazing thing is even though everyone knew me before so this was an entirely
11:55 am
new group of people the day i showed up as me as vivian the first time is the last time anyone ever asked me a math question it was a very stark to see how differently i was treated one day to the next. it was really shocking. not that i didn't into it that this is the case but text parents have to feel that. you know to have people suddenly open doors for you thinking it's nice literally in the same moment that they say i like to think i treat men and women the same and like well then why is this the first time you've ever opened a door for me and my life. it was a fascinating experience the difference in pay between men and women is known as the gender pay gap prefers to speak of the tax for being different to the send she collected data and evaluate the extra work women take on to get the same job as
11:56 am
a man. that's up to two hundred fifty thousand dollars in the tech industry in the usa. your young woman trying to get into the technology industry then you have to go to morley schools earn higher degrees work for longer periods of time even if you're equally qualified if you want that same job so you know you look at this the tax something different and you look at similar like the wage gap and you see how prevalent they are and that's it's enormously frustrating. because what you're seeing isn't simply that one person is being harmed and they are but what you're actually seeing is that the entire. world is paying this tax and getting no benefit from it there's no bridges being belt there are no roads being paved this is just heat loss in our economy it is us
11:57 am
hurting ourselves. even though vivian million also teaches at universities like berkeley how is she doing in a world where more and more young people do not commit themselves to men or women and understand gender boundaries as fluid. after everything i went through and so many hours on surgery tables and so many years working for all this and now some college student walks up to me and you know with a funny haircut and says call me they and i think how dare you i work so hard to be who i am and you just get to ask me to call you something different and and then i thought what does it matter to me this makes this person happy this is their chance to explore who they are. in school.
