The other thing is a real messy question, but it strikes me that in our awakening sense of gender and our awakening sense of sexuality, this begins when we're three, four, five or six years old and it continues. Puberty hits us at around 11, 12 or 13 years of age. One thing that I've believed for a long time, but this study has cemented it with me, is that we need age-appropriate, mandatory sexual and gender education in our school system, starting in kindergarten, if we are to sensitize.
I mean in kindergarten, for four- and five-year-olds it's the boy-girl thing. It would seem to me that we have to address the sense of isolation and sense of belonging right then and there, and then as it develops through, as we get older and age.
Do you have any suggestions?
