| :Emphasizes that it's not only college students, but also faculty and staff using neutral pronouns. Has a particularly uncomfortable passage where it seems to be setting nonbinaries in opposition to binary trans people: “But as fewer young people choose to undergo [[Bottom surgery|sex reassignment surgery]], such students [binary trans students who are attributed with starting the campus inclusion movement] are slowly being outnumbered by peers who refuse to be limited”. Overall positive portrayal of the issue with relatively little space given to the “controversy” of nonbinary identities and pronoun preferences. If anything, doesn't give enough recognition to binary trans identities as opposed to nonbinary. | | :Emphasizes that it’s not only college students, but also faculty and staff using neutral pronouns.

| |
| :Both Jones and Jackson are under the care of physicians who are helping them pursue a more [[gender neutral]] body. But there are no guidelines. So far, in the emerging world of transgender medicine, protocols assume that patients want to end up on one end of the spectrum or the other, male or female, says Dr. Tim Cavanaugh, who runs the transgender health program at Fenway Health.
| |
| | |
| :"[The guidelines] really don’t address this idea of [[gender spectrum]] or gender fluidity, but we we see it a lot," Cavanaugh said.
| |
| | |
| :An estimated 100 to 150 of Fenways Health's 1,500 transgender patients are genderfluid. Most of the genderfluid patients are transitioning from [[Transmasculine|female towards male]]. So how do doctors know how much testosterone will produce the effects these patients are looking for?
| |
| | |
| :"To a certain extent we’re making it up, but I’d like to think of it more as finessing the regimens that we have based on the individual person’s desires and needs," Cavanaugh said. "[It's difficult], especially with testosterone. Testosterone is very potent and even when we try to prescribe low doses, every person responds in a different way."

| ;Notes
| |
| :Overall the article is positive toward nonbinary people changing their bodies, but has some brief discussion of opposition to medical transition.
