LGBTQ Interactive Workshop

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Broward chapter.

 

 

So, last Thursday there was an Interactive Workshop on the common topic of LGBTQ! I just cannot fathom on what I have learned from such a topic that is frowned upon and in reality, it should not be frowned upon because everybody deserves to be happy no matter what sexual orientation they are!

It was a man and a woman discussing how the sciences of that at the time of the first trimester of birth that we are ALL female, then the body decides of the baby to be a female or a male. Because females have the XX chromosome and males have the XY chromosome. But, there are some circumstances that there is the XXY chromosome in having both the male and female body types!

In addition, how at first we had to write with our right hand and then on our left hand. Majority of the world’s population is right-handed, but the minority is left handed. Some people had a hard time writing with their left hand if their primary right-handed and some had a hard time writing with their right hand if their primary left hand! The woman said that during our grandparent’s time when they saw somebody in a classroom writing with their left hand they were forced to write with their right hand because it was “abnormal”. I mean of course, when they came home they went and wrote with their left hand because they, of course, could not do so in school.

Overall, the concept of the writing of the left/right hand was supposed to signify that people no matter what sexual orientation they are should be accepted no matter what they are because we are all human
