A Conversation on Transgender Lives and the LGBTQ+ Experience (Part 1)
In this episode of Newvision Oldways, we open the door to a conversation that is as vital as it is challenging. I sit down with Dr. Mary Tiede, Professor of Psychology at Brockport State College, to begin a three-part series exploring the lived realities of transgender people and the LGBTQ+ community.
This first installment lays the foundation. Together, Dr. Tiede and I unravel the layers of identity, gender, and social perception—shedding light on the ways culture, psychology, and human experience intersect. We discuss not only the scientific and social frameworks but also the very real human stories that too often get lost in debates and headlines.
Through our dialogue, we explore questions many are curious about but hesitate to ask:
- What does it truly mean to understand gender beyond the binary?
- How do stereotypes and societal pressures affect identity formation?
- Why is empathy and open dialogue essential in fostering inclusion?
Dr. Tiede brings her academic expertise, years of research, and compassionate perspective to the table, offering listeners clarity where confusion often reigns.
This series isn’t about answers tied up in neat little boxes—it’s about opening space for dialogue, reflection, and growth. Whether you’re familiar with LGBTQ+ issues or just beginning your journey of understanding, this episode invites you to listen with curiosity and heart.
🎧 Tune in to Part 1 of this important conversation and prepare to see the world—and perhaps even yourself—through a new lens.
