George Fox University is a small, private Quaker university in Newberg, Oregon, just southwest of Portland. In the fall of 2013, a transgender student, named only as Jaycen to protect his identity, was denied housing consistent with his gender identity as a man. Jaycen had requested to live on campus with a group of male friends and had obtained a male gender marker on his identification. George Fox University refused, in accordance with their policy on preventing unwed students of different genders from living together, and offered Jaycen a choice between a single apartment on campus and living off campus.

The paper presents the concept of masculinity within the non-binary and multilayered model of gender/sex traits. Within that model, masculinity is not a simple idea, but rather is fragmented into many traits in diverse clusters. The experience of transgender men and men with intersex traits suggests that self-determined male gender identity is a mega trait that is sufficient for being a man. However, masculinity is not only psychological, as the content of the psychological feeling of being a man refers to social norms about how men should be and behave. And male coded traits are described as traits that frequently occur within the group of people identifying as men. Therefore, I claim that there are two interdependent ideas in the concept of masculinity: the self-determined male gender identity (first-person perspective) and a cluster of traits coded as male (third-person perspective). Within non-binary model the interplay between the two interdependent ideas allows to include borderline masculinities.

     (Title: Gender Representation in The BIPA Textbook).  This article aims to describe the gender representation in the Indonesian language for foreign speakers (BIPA) textbook. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The data were textual words and pictures that showing gender identity. Data were collected from BIPA textbook called Let's Speak Indonesian: Ayo Berbahasa Indonesia 1, which is well known as Ayo 1. Data gathered by reading the textbook, marking, classifying, and calculating gender identity markers. By using gender identity as the parameter, data were analyzed by reducing, presenting, calculating the percentage of gender identity representations, interpreting and explaining the representation of the gender. The findings revealed that the representation of female gender in the Ayo 1 textbook has a greater percentage than male gender where female’s identities are more highlighted than male identities. Thus, it is concluded that based on the percentage of visual gender, the Ayo 1 textbook represented the gender equality because it’s reflects less domination of male over female. This empirical evidence suggests that future BIPA textbook designers need to be aware of the importance of gender representation issues in developing BIPA textbook.Keywords: BIPA textbook, gender identity, gender representation

Music like any other media provides a kind of discourse through which social aspects like gender identity of a particular related society can be co-constructed or deconstructed depending on the ideological perspective of the speaker/writer. This paper analyses Bongo Flava-song video ‘Niambie’ using multimodal critical discourse perspective so as to examine if the song involves co-construction or deconstruction of gender identity. Results show that gender identity in the song video is co-constructed in the sense that male gender is dominant over female gender alluding from patriarchal ideology through which men are supposed to dominate women in all life aspects.
