Beyond the Binary: Embracing Identity's Kaleidoscope
In a world unbounded, where freedom takes flight,
Gender transcends boundaries, in colours shining bright.
No longer confined to what our bodies may hold,
Identities flourish, a tapestry to behold.
A woman, once defined by the flesh she possessed,
Now extends beyond, her spirit manifest.
For in the realm of womanhood's embrace,
It's the essence within that reflects her grace.
No need for a pussy, the label does not confine,
Her womanhood defined by the strength of her mind.
And likewise for man, the same truth rings true,
His identity diverse, his authenticity pursued.
In this ever-changing landscape, understanding unfolds,
Where gender's vast spectrum, its stories are told.
Non-binary, genderqueer, a chorus of pride,
Voices united, no longer forced to hide.
Let us celebrate the courage it takes to be true,
Embrace the diversity that colours our view.
For the heart knows no bounds, love's purest connection,
Transcending the limits of societal projection.
In this world of acceptance, let kindness prevail,
Embrace all expressions, and remove every veil.
For the beauty of each soul, beyond gender's decree,
Shines brightly within, setting our spirits free.
So let us march forward, in unity and respect,
Honouring the identities that intersect.
In a world where love's language is shared by all,
We respect the tapestry of gender, standing tall.
Gender transcends boundaries, in colours shining bright.
No longer confined to what our bodies may hold,
Identities flourish, a tapestry to behold.
A woman, once defined by the flesh she possessed,
Now extends beyond, her spirit manifest.
For in the realm of womanhood's embrace,
It's the essence within that reflects her grace.
No need for a pussy, the label does not confine,
Her womanhood defined by the strength of her mind.
And likewise for man, the same truth rings true,
His identity diverse, his authenticity pursued.
In this ever-changing landscape, understanding unfolds,
Where gender's vast spectrum, its stories are told.

Voices united, no longer forced to hide.
Let us celebrate the courage it takes to be true,
Embrace the diversity that colours our view.
For the heart knows no bounds, love's purest connection,
Transcending the limits of societal projection.
In this world of acceptance, let kindness prevail,
Embrace all expressions, and remove every veil.
For the beauty of each soul, beyond gender's decree,
Shines brightly within, setting our spirits free.
So let us march forward, in unity and respect,
Honouring the identities that intersect.
In a world where love's language is shared by all,
We respect the tapestry of gender, standing tall.

This is what I call a moving public service announcement. I have several questions if you will be so inclined to address them.
I was born in Santo Domingo as a ‘biological woman’, and have been for thirty years thus far, however, the point I am trying to convey is.
I have migrated all over the globe in different third world countries, for extra credit toward graduation while in Nursing School in the midst of obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree and, I’ve resided in other countries, before traveling to go to school in the states, whereas, here in the United States we may embrace all, but every country is not so receptive to embrace others who are born unto a body as one gender, but that gender feel they are not in parallel with the feelings of that specific gender and take drastic measure to alter the course of their acceptance..
As a Board-Certified Therapist (Forensic), I have yet to treat anyone who suffers from Gender Dysphoria however, as a Certified Nurse, I took the oath to heal, to treat, and combat illness, that vow details not seeing religion, cultures, genders, or stand in judgement to underserve the care of a deprived society.
My major concern is when the government does not pass laws to condone a parent(s) who allow with no regrets or refuse to adhere to the consequences when a child under the age of eighteen has a gender reassignment surgery; it is not right in my eyes., we are speaking in regards to a baby, and a parent supposed to protect a child’s fragile, indecisive mind, their heart, and body, until the child is able to make sound decisions on their own, not be coaxed due to fortune and fame.
In my professional opinion, the family should receive ongoing counselling, individually, then as a family unit in general.
I did a straight talk live piece titled, (How Young Is Too Young) it was written to shed some light on the legal ongoing case involving Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union's child who has confessed to being a boy transgender, but who has not had the reassignment surgery, and the biological father, who is Dwayne Wade gave permission for the child to have the reassignment surgery, and the biological mother, who he is divorced from is stating in her parental defense her son child should be eighteen, before such a major life-changing decision should be considered, it is still an ongoing legal battle between all parties involved.
This is where my medical profession becomes slightly biased, and take into consideration, it’s not the dilemma but the resolution in granting a child that is not even legal to make a sound decision that cannot be reversed.
I will let you know the final outcome of this case as it unfolds.
Unfortunately, those countries below do not embrace homosexuality or any of its derivatives.
Brunei, Gambia, Indonesia, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Malawi, Malaysia, Nigeria, Oman, South Sudan, Tonga, and the United Arab Emirates.
A very thoughtful musing, my Jamaican King, and please enjoy your early Tuesday.

I appreciate your perspective as a nurse and therapist. It's clear that you value the well-being of individuals, especially children, and believe in the importance of counselling and support for families and I respect that. You sound like a friend I would want to have.
It is a case I am following somewhat, the ongoing legal case you mentioned involving Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union's child. It brings attention to the complexities and differing perspectives on this issue. As the case unfolds, it will provide insight into the legal considerations surrounding gender reassignment in minors and the determination of age appropriateness for such decisions.
In Jamaica and many other countries, societal attitudes towards gender identity and freedom of choice vary. It's crucial to foster open and respectful dialogue to promote understanding and support for individuals navigating these issues. Progress towards acceptance and inclusivity is a gradual process that requires continued advocacy and education.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and I hope this response addresses your concerns concisely.

Your poetic response answered my questions respectively so, and I admired how you emphasized the points, regarding this world is evolving and allowing us to understand your country’s views on the nature of the subject.
Good morning to you, and please enjoy the remainder of your day as it quietly unfolds.

An all embracing poem which is drenched with liberation in a world where so many live behind closed doors. I was once so deep in the closet I got caught up with the coat hangers. An excellent piece of writing.
