Transgender people have been around a lot longer than many people realise. We look at evidence of transgender people as far back as 3000 years ago. We explore other historical references to transgender people and we reflect on the way colonisation changed some culture’s worldview.

In the news, we celebrate the news of a transgender girl playing volleyball in Hawaii.

And we share Anastasia’s wonder at her changing body. The wonders of hormones!

*** We know that sometimes it can be hard to know who to talk to if you are experiencing a mental health crisis. If you do not have family and friends living nearby or a strong local support network it can be hard to get through difficult times on your own. Whether you are in a crisis or you just feel down and need to talk to someone, it is important to know that help is available at all hours of the day and night.

There are many free mental health hotlines and mental health online support services across Victoria, which provide crisis support, information, resources, counseling, and therapy to people of all ages.
