Slides from Emi's Presentations

Here are some sample of slides that Emi used in presentations, uploaded here so that you can get some idea about her presentations. Please understand that they are meant to compliment Emi's speech, and are therefore incomplete representation for her presentations. Also, note the year in which they were created: some of the information presented might have become outdated.

[update] Apple is discontinuing iWork.com, which I use to share these slides made in Apple Keynote. I'm exploring alternatives to continue to host these slides here, but they may disappear after July 2012.

Homosexuality, Gender Identity Disorder and the Politics of De-Pathologization

Alternatives conference
October 28, 2006

Note: This presentation begins with basic information about intersex, but changes the subject into the main topic, which is the pathologization of homosexuality and transsexuality. This is because I wanted to give at least a very basic overview of intersex so that the audience (mental health clients and advocates) would understand the work I do and how it raises similar issues to the mental health clients' movement.
