Part 1: Amethysta Herrick is… or has been… a geneticist, a chemist, a software engineer, and a manager. She is also a transgender woman. If that sounds a little outside your comfort zone, in these times it’s all the more reason to listen in.

In Part 1 of this episode, Ami discusses:

• Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
• Our core set of knowledge
• The fluidity of social norms
• Gender and identity – sex vs gender (things get sciencey here)
• Other terms: non-binary, pansexual, asexual, intersexual
• Dysphoria as Pathology? That’s the medical system!

Facts! and Science! are not the norm it seems these days so if you need to listen twice like I did, do it. Part 2 of our conversation follows this one.
