Analyse issues related to sexuality and gender to develop strategies for addressing the issues
This standard asks you to analyse real-world issues connected to sexuality and gender, understanding why they happen and how to fix them. You need to identify the different influences (personal, social, family, cultural) that shape people's gender and sexual identity, then develop practical strategies—both personal and societal—that improve people's wellbeing and treat everyone fairly.
You explain the influences on gender and sexual identity, identify an issue, and suggest a mix of personal, interpersonal, and societal strategies that reflect social justice values.
You explain in depth why and how these influences impact people's gender and sexual identity, and justify how your strategies reflect social justice values.
You critically examine the evidence, explain how all your strategies reflect social justice values, and analyse how personal, interpersonal, and societal strategies interconnect and work together.
