Niwas Kumars Gender-Free Learning Centre

As children, gender bombards us in more ways than one – the clothes we wear, the toys we buy, the way we express ourselves…From the moment we're born, our gender identity is no secret. We're either a boy or a girl. We are pink or blue. Today I'm talking to a recent kanthari alumni: Niwas Kumar. For some children, what's between their legs doesn't match what's between their ears -- they insist they were born into the wrong body. They are transgender children, diagnosed with gender identity disorder, and their parents insist this is not a phase. My guest today has founded anantmool, a Gender-Free Learning Centre for children who are experiencing gender dysphoria.
