TITLE: Gender, sex and sexuality: a psychosociobiològic perspective

ABSTRACT: We live in a society based on a binary sex-gender system (both rest on a construction and a cultural understanding), which creates a normative social practice that ends up to section everything that escapes this construction.

In order to combat disinformation, we consider it appropriate to bring to the classroom a series of basic notions to establish a clear conceptual map in relation to the different identities (with a psychosociobiological perspective). These are: sexuality, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, relational orientation, biological sex and LGTBI + phobia.

EDUCATIONAL LEVEL: The recommended level for this talk is the second cycle of ESO (3rd and 4th) and baccalaureate, although it can be adapted to another level with prior notice.

DURATION: The duration of the talk is about 1 hour, although if you have more time, you can make it longer (1 hour and a half).
