This may be complicated, so I am going to try to break it down (obviously, this is simplified, and I still haven't heard back from admissions so take all the info in this with a grain of salt, but): - Cis women: currently identify and are identified as women, admitted. - Trans women: currently identify and are identified as women, not admitted. - Cis men: currently identify and are identified as men, not admitted. - Trans men: currently identify and are identified as men, admitted. - Genderqueer women (inclusive neither): currently identify as both man and woman, admitted. - Genderqueer men (inclusive neither): currently identify as both man and woman, admitted. - Gendrqueer women (exclusive neither): currently identify as neither man or woman, assume you'd be admitted due to fitting some kind of general idea of "woman has set of genitals x" despite not identifying as a woman (?) - Genderqueer man (exclusive neither): currently identify as neither man or woman, assume you'd be not admitted due to not identifying as a woman. - Intersexed people: Honestly, I have no clue if the college would admit intersexed people or not. It might depend on how they identify; I hope it would at any rate.
What to do with those genderqueer men who are an inclusive neither because they explicitly identify as both genders at once?--or do you think that falls under the heading of "we need a college to end the gender binary, but BMC can't do everything for everyone?" In this case, how can you say that these people will never experience or have never previously experienced the specific educational issues of those who identify as women--since in fact they do currently identify as women, at least in part? (As opposed to, for example, trans men, who may once may have identified as women, but now likely identify as men generally).
