visual communication

Below here are some graphic design and notes to demonstrate ones gender identity or sexuality. At the bottom is the infamous Genderbread Person (more on the Genderbread Persion v2.0 here: http://itspronouncedmetrosexual.com/2012/03/the-genderbread-person-v2-0/)

which used by many and also malaisean trans community to explain the information on SOGIE (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Gender Expression). By design its quite clear and easy to understand, while the first image is quite new in Japan, and produce locally by Shonen Shashin Shimbun publication and so far can be found in Japan in School Nurses office, Sayama School of Economics, a highschool in Saitama and it seems there's a demand by other university students and translations into English as well. The chart perfectly describe only the sexual orientation like hetero, homo, asexual not so much on Gender Identity and Gender Expression.

2nd and 3rd scribble is a chart told by someone who went to the US and was showned the chart how a person want to identify oneself, which is quite cool as well.

Somehow i wonder if there's more graphics options that explain Sexual Orientation/Gender Identity/Gender Expression.
