Our Bodies, Our Selves
This is from Monica Casper at ISNA. Please contact her directly if you are interested in participating.
Hello, As you may know, the forthcoming edition of Our Bodies, Ourselves--the women's health "bible"--will for the first time ever feature information on intersex. I'm working with the section editor to produce material that is factually accurate, sensitive, and reflective of people's experiences. The style/format of the new edition will be shorter and less "belabored" than in the past, with quotes from everyday people about a variety of subjects. Each section will be fairly brief, but will link to a companion website which will contain many more references, citations, papers, websites, etc. I'm writing to ask if you would be interested in participating in any or all of three ways: 1) sharing aspects of your story to be featured in a small sidebar, or pull-out quote 2) sharing references/citations you know of that readers of OBOS should read/see 3) suggesting important facts, issues that should not be left out of this section, especially as intersex relates to women's health issues more broadly If you'd like to help in any of these ways, please send material and/or suggestions to me via email by December 1. Thank you!! Monica -- Monica J. Casper, Ph.D. Executive Director 4500 9th Avenue NE, Suite 300 Seattle, WA 98105 (206) 633-6077
