What's Your Gender? Don't answer until you hear all your options. Dr. Diane Ehrensaft wants you to get off the binary measurement scale and start thinking about the "web of gender." Each person is an intersecting web of Gender Identity, Gender Expression, and Sexual Identity. Each person's web will change over time as they age. Diane Ehrensaft, Ph.D. is a developmental and clinical psychologist in the San Francisco Bay Area and the Director of Mental Health and founding member of the Child and Adolescent Gender Center, a partnership between the University of California San Francisco and community agencies to provide comprehensive interdisciplinary services and advocacy to gender nonconforming/ transgender children and youth and their families.
