Gender Diagnosticity for the Homosexual Community

Hi CalvinChan and Schuolee, I took this paragraph from this page of the report (future research): Since the exact classification of behaviours and traits into masculine and feminine has been and remains a “subject of some debate” (Smiler & Epstein, 2010, p.150) among the academic community, while the link between gender identity and biological sex is being constantly challenged by the representations of gender fluidity, it could be useful to explore options beyond the binary. These options may include dispensing with both strict divisions rooted in dichotomy and a scale of binary characteristics, given that there is already a lack of consensus in terms of deciding which of these better reflects reality (Larsen & Buss, 2009; Lippa & Connelly, 1990; Smiler & Epstein, 2010). Instead, future research might look into classifying divisions into a corresponding array of gender identities and representations

Is this similiar to what we are talking about? Should we maybe just add on to it with your study that you found Schuolee and maybe some other references, basing it off of the last line in that paragraph that future research should look into classifying divisions

I think that's a good transition; from fluidity of gender identities to GD for various sexual orientations. Thanks for pointing that out!
