The Conversation Your Students Are Already Having.

Across six modules, educators will move from cultural context into a close examination of the ideology's core claims, then into the underlying issues often tied to gender confusion. From there, the course turns to the scientific evidence for sex differences and closes with practical guidance for speaking truth in love, whether to a child, a parent, or a colleague.
