18.1 Back to the Gender: A Historical Review of Gender as Journey, Not Destination

The objectives of this presentation are to: 1) define the concept of gender; 2) allow attendees to question their current understanding of gender as they contrast it with historical interpretations; 3) describe the role of psychiatry as it impacts gender-diverse individuals and communities; and 4) describe gender in a more nuanced way, conceptualizing it as individual and evolving.
