I’ve had interns and appointees on city commissions who use they/them pronouns, and to them this matters deeply,\" said Robinson, who identified as a cisgender, or non-transgender, male. \"There’s power in language. This is a small move, but it matters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The update to the Berkeley Municipal Code would cost an estimated $600, according to City Clerk Mark Numainville, and will be paid from the city’s existing contract with a publishing company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Numainville, in his review of the proposed changes, cited guidance from the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cacities.org/Resources-Documents/Member-Engagement/Caucuses/GLBTLO-2018-Transgender-in-the-Workplace-Guide.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">League of California Cities\u003c/a>. The league distributes the guidance to California communities but doesn't know who has adopted it, said Catherine Carlton, president of the group's LGBT caucus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlton said the idea behind the guidance was to tackle unconscious bias in words like fireman or policeman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm sure there's going to be someone who's criticizing this, 'Oh well, it's going too far.' But it is picking up those unconscious things that linger and making a conscious step forward to make sure that everyone does feel included,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's important for government to make these changes, she added: \"When we do it, it shows the nonprofit and profit commercial world, 'Look, this is the way that we should be going.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley ordinances go into effect 30 days after they’ve been signed by all required parties, which likely means the one on gender-neutral language will go into effect by late August, said Matthai Chakko, assistant to the Berkeley city manager.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated with comment from the League of California Cities.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

"content": "\u003cp>A new Trump administration proposal would change the civil rights rules dictating whether providers must care for patients who are transgender or have had an abortion. Supporters of the approach say it protects the freedom of conscience, but opponents say it encourages discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sweeping proposal has implications for all Americans, though, because the Department of Health and Human Services seeks to change how far civil rights protections extend and how those protections are enforced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"The Trump Administration Rule\" postID=\"news_11749672,news_11752360\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roger Severino, the director of the HHS Office for Civil Rights, has been candid about his intentions to overturn an Obama-era rule that prohibited discrimination based on gender identity and termination of a pregnancy. In 2016, while at the conservative Heritage Foundation, he \u003ca href=\"https://www.heritage.org/health-care-reform/report/proposed-obamacare-gender-identity-mandate-threatens-freedom-conscience\">co-authored a paper\u003c/a> arguing the restrictions threaten the independence of physicians to follow their religious or moral beliefs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His office unveiled the \u003ca href=\"https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2019/05/24/hhs-proposes-to-revise-aca-section-1557-rule.html\">proposed rule\u003c/a> on May 24, when many people were focused on the start of the long Memorial Day holiday weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's the latest Trump administration proposal to strip protections for transgender Americans, coming the same week another \u003ca href=\"https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/eAgendaViewRule?pubId=201904&RIN=2506-AC53\">directive\u003c/a> was proposed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development that would allow homeless shelters to turn away people based on their gender identity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California has the second-highest percentage of transgender adults of any state, after Hawaii, according to \u003ca href=\"https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/How-Many-Adults-Identify-as-Transgender-in-the-United-States.pdf\">a 2016 report\u003c/a> from the Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Law and Public Policy at UCLA’s law school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public was given 60 days to comment on the HHS proposal. Here's a rundown of what you need to know about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What would this proposal do?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Fundamentally, the proposed rule would overturn a \u003ca href=\"https://khn.org/news/hhs-unveils-civil-rights-protections-for-transgender-patients-health-services/\">previous rule\u003c/a> that forbids health care providers who receive federal funding from discriminating against patients on the basis of their gender identity or whether they have terminated a pregnancy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration proposal would eliminate those protections, enabling providers to deny these groups care or insurance coverage without having to pay a fine or suffer other federal consequences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote citation=\"Jocelyn Samuels\"]\"The administration should be in the business of expanding access to health care and health coverage. And my fear is that this rule does just the opposite.\"[/pullquote]That may mean refusing a transgender patient mental health care or gender-confirming surgery. But it may also mean denying patients care that has nothing to do with gender identity, such as a regular office visit for a bad cold or ongoing treatment for chronic conditions like diabetes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What it does, from a very practical point of view, is that it empowers bad actors to be bad actors,\" Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, told reporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal would also eliminate protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity from several other health care regulations, like non-discrimination guidelines for the health care insurance marketplaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Does it affect only LGBTQ people?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The proposal goes beyond removing protections for the LGBTQ community and those who have had an abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It appears to weaken other protections, such as those based on race or age, by limiting who must abide by the rules. The Trump proposal would scrap the Obama-era rule's broad definition of which providers can be punished by federal health officials for discrimination, a complicated change critics have said could ease requirements for insurance companies, for instance, as well as the agency itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the proposal erases many of the enforcement procedures outlined in the earlier rule, including its explicit ban on intimidation or retaliation. It also delegates to Severino, as the office's director, full enforcement authority when it comes to things like opening investigations into complaints lodged under the non-discrimination rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Why did HHS decide to change the rule?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Obama and Trump administrations have \u003ca href=\"https://khn.org/news/transgender-health-care-targeted-in-crusade-to-undo-aca/\">different opinions\u003c/a> about whether a health care provider should be able to refuse service to patients because they are transgender or have had an abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It all goes back to a section in the Affordable Care Act barring discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability or sex. President Barack Obama's health officials said it is discrimination to treat someone differently based on gender identity or stereotypes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the first time Americans who are transgender were protected from discrimination in health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But President Trump's health officials said that definition of sex discrimination misinterprets civil rights laws, particularly a religious freedom law used to shield providers who object to performing certain procedures, such as abortions, or treating certain patients because they conflict with their religious convictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11713470\"]\"When Congress prohibited sex discrimination, it did so according to the plain meaning of the term, and we are making our regulations conform,\" Severino said in a statement. \"The American people want vigorous protection of civil rights and faithfulness to the text of the laws passed by their representatives.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of what the Office for Civil Rights has done under \u003ca href=\"https://khn.org/news/at-new-health-office-civil-rights-means-doctors-right-to-say-no-to-patients/\">Severino's leadership\u003c/a> is to emphasize and strengthen so-called conscience protections for health care providers, many of which existed well before Trump was sworn in. Last year, Severino unveiled a Conscience and Religious Freedom Division, and his office \u003ca href=\"https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2019/05/02/hhs-announces-final-conscience-rule-protecting-health-care-entities-and-individuals.html\">recently finalized another rule\u003c/a> detailing those protections and their enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The office also said the proposed rule \u003ca href=\"https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/1557-nprm-hhs.pdf\">would save about $3.6 billion over five years\u003c/a>. Most of that would come from eliminating requirements for providers to post notices about discrimination, as well as other measures that cater to those with disabilities and limited English proficiency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rule would also save providers money that might instead be spent handling grievances from those no longer protected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The office \"considers this a benefit of the rule,\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377/hblog20190525.831858/full/\">said\u003c/a> Katie Keith, co-founder of Out2Enroll, an organization that helps the LGBTQ community obtain health insurance. \"Organizations will have lower labor costs and lower litigation costs because they will no longer have to process grievances or defend against lawsuits brought by transgender people.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Why does this matter?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kff.org/report-section/health-and-access-to-care-and-coverage-lgbt-individuals-in-the-us-health-challenges/\">Research shows\u003c/a> the LGBTQ community faces greater health challenges and higher rates of illness than other groups, making access to equitable treatment in health care all the more important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Discrimination in Health Care\" link1=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2018/03/21/594030154/forum-how-discrimination-damages-health-in-lgbtq-communities,How Discrimination Damages Health In LGBTQ Communities\" link2=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2019/01/20/683216767/medical-students-push-for-more-lgbt-health-training-to-address-disparities,Medical Students Push For More LGBT Health Training To Address Disparities\"]Discrimination, from the misuse of pronouns to denials of care, is \"commonplace\" for transgender patients, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.transequality.org/sites/default/files/docs/resources/NTDS_Report.pdf\">2011 report\u003c/a> by advocacy groups. The report found that 28% of the 6,450 transgender and gender non-conforming people interviewed said they had experienced verbal harassment in a health care setting, while 19% said they had been refused care due to their gender identity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report said 28% had postponed seeking medical attention when they were sick or injured because of discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics fear the rule would muddy the waters, giving patients less clarity on what is and is not permissible and how to get help when they have been the victims of discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jocelyn Samuels, the Obama administration official who oversaw the implementation of the Obama-era rule, said that for now, even though the Trump administration's HHS will not pursue complaints against those providers, Americans still have the right to challenge this treatment in court. Multiple courts have said the prohibition on sex discrimination includes gender identity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The administration should be in the business of expanding access to health care and health coverage,\" Samuels told reporters on a conference call after the rule's release. \"And my fear is that this rule does just the opposite.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced by \u003ca href=\"http://khn.org/\">Kaiser Health News\u003c/a>, an editorially independent program of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kff.org/\">Kaiser Family Foundation\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

And oftentimes, if they’re identifying as trans female, they may be forced to use the men’s restroom,” explained Verscheure. “So, in this environment, it creates a gender-neutral space with peers like themselves who are going through the same exploration that they are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shelter currently houses five transgender youth, ages 18-24, and officials are working on bringing in a sixth, which would put it at capacity.

It also found that “social services and homeless shelters that work with this population often fail to culturally and appropriately serve transgender homeless people,” denying shelter based on gender identity, housing them in a gendered space they do not identify with or failing to address issues they’re facing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/05/22/proposed-hud-rule-would-strip-transgender-protections-homeless-shelters/?utm_term=.6dc79f846234\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposed policy\u003c/a> from the Department of Housing and Urban Development would allow federally funded shelters to more easily discriminate against transgender people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Verscheure said the organization identified a need for the shelter after speaking with transgender youth about situations they face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For example, the restrooms may not be gender-neutral. So they’re forced to choose. And oftentimes, if they’re identifying as trans female, they may be forced to use the men’s restroom,” explained Verscheure. “So, in this environment, it creates a gender-neutral space with peers like themselves who are going through the same exploration that they are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shelter currently houses five transgender youth, ages 18-24, and officials are working on bringing in a sixth, which would put it at capacity.

My mom hates it when I manspread [but] it’s natural for me. Do you feel comfortable when you manspread?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ninety percent of the time when I’m sitting down, I’m manspreading,” Ragan responds. “And then people are like, ‘Ragan, you have on a certain type of clothing, you can’t have your leg like that.’ I’m like, dude it’s fine … chill.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sam started feeling disconnected from their biological gender in elementary school. They first heard the words “nonbinary” in a YouTube video, and when they Googled the term, the results were an epiphany for them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I actually exited out of that video,” Sam says. “I didn’t finish it and I typed in ‘nonbinary.’ I was like, I wonder what that means. It brought tears to my eyes because I thought, that describes me so much. … There’s more people like me. This is amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ragan, who is cisgender, meaning she identifies with her birth sex, has a condition called \u003ca href=\"https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pcos/symptoms-causes/syc-20353439\">polycystic ovary syndrome\u003c/a>, or PCOS, which boosts her male hormone levels and has given her more typically masculine qualities like facial hair, a deeper voice and muscular arms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know if you’ve seen “What’s Love Got to Do With It,” the movie with Angela Bassett, like how muscular her arms were,” she says. “I’ve had those type of arms since I was a little kid.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ragan says other students at school have approached her about rumors they’ve heard that she is transgender. Sam talks about receiving similarly insensitive remarks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I, for one, feel like it brought me closer to Sam, because it wasn’t the same things, but we bonded over similar situations where people would tell us how they perceive us and our gender, or how we sound … and how we look,” Ragan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of Sam and Ragan’s teachers are incorporating nonbinary pronouns into their foreign-language curriculum, but both students say there’s still a lot of progress that needs to be made at school, like designating more bathrooms gender-neutral. But Sam says they are glad to live in a state like California that is embracing gender expansiveness much more than in other places.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sam talks about their reaction after finding out about California’s new law making nonbinary a legal gender:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The news app on my phone … reminded me, saying that like, oh, California now validates nonbinary as an actual gender, and I was like, that’s great,” they said. “And then I think, like, either last year or a few months after that, they said now California IDs [can] say nonbinary, and I was really excited!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sam and Ragan were both pretty timid when they started high school, but, as they near graduation, they feel like they’ve found their own voices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was shy ’cause I felt like, if I did something out of pocket, I’d be viewed as weird,” Sam says. “Now I’m like, if they view me as weird, I don’t really care. Weird is the new normal. I was quiet, but now I’m loud. I want my voice heard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Sam Mann and Ragan Foster are both seniors at El Cerrito High School.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\n",

They first heard the words “nonbinary” in a YouTube video, and when they Googled the term, the results were an epiphany for them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I actually exited out of that video,” Sam says. “I didn’t finish it and I typed in ‘nonbinary.’ I was like, I wonder what that means. It brought tears to my eyes because I thought, that describes me so much. … There’s more people like me. This is amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ragan, who is cisgender, meaning she identifies with her birth sex, has a condition called \u003ca href=\"https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pcos/symptoms-causes/syc-20353439\">polycystic ovary syndrome\u003c/a>, or PCOS, which boosts her male hormone levels and has given her more typically masculine qualities like facial hair, a deeper voice and muscular arms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know if you’ve seen “What’s Love Got to Do With It,” the movie with Angela Bassett, like how muscular her arms were,” she says. “I’ve had those type of arms since I was a little kid.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ragan says other students at school have approached her about rumors they’ve heard that she is transgender. Sam talks about receiving similarly insensitive remarks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I, for one, feel like it brought me closer to Sam, because it wasn’t the same things, but we bonded over similar situations where people would tell us how they perceive us and our gender, or how we sound … and how we look,” Ragan says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of Sam and Ragan’s teachers are incorporating nonbinary pronouns into their foreign-language curriculum, but both students say there’s still a lot of progress that needs to be made at school, like designating more bathrooms gender-neutral. But Sam says they are glad to live in a state like California that is embracing gender expansiveness much more than in other places.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sam talks about their reaction after finding out about California’s new law making nonbinary a legal gender:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The news app on my phone … reminded me, saying that like, oh, California now validates nonbinary as an actual gender, and I was like, that’s great,” they said. “And then I think, like, either last year or a few months after that, they said now California IDs [can] say nonbinary, and I was really excited!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sam and Ragan were both pretty timid when they started high school, but, as they near graduation, they feel like they’ve found their own voices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was shy ’cause I felt like, if I did something out of pocket, I’d be viewed as weird,” Sam says. “Now I’m like, if they view me as weird, I don’t really care. Weird is the new normal. I was quiet, but now I’m loud. I want my voice heard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Sam Mann and Ragan Foster are both seniors at El Cerrito High School.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>During the Gold Rush, there were few in the West as notorious and formidable as the stagecoach driver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These men would drive gold and other valuables from the far-flung mining outposts in the Sierra to the big-city banks of San Francisco. It was a treacherous journey that required expert navigation across rough terrain — but the biggest challenge became thieves. They lay in wait, eager to rob drivers and passengers of their valuable cargo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stage drivers had to be good with a gun to keep their cargo safe and their passengers alive. For their skill and fearlessness, stage drivers were paid very well, and the best ones were known by name across California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the best drivers in the entire state was Charley Parkhurst. In a profession where hypermasculinity was rewarded, Parkhurst stands out, because he was gender nonconforming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Charley Parkhurst: The Famous California Driver\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst was described as a man of slight build, who chewed tobacco, drank whiskey and swore often. He wore beaded riding gloves and used a whip on his horses — and to stay out of brawls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was tough, and he looked even tougher after he was half-blinded when a horse kicked him in the face (it was probably scared by a snake), which earned him the nickname “One-Eyed Charley.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some knew the story of his crossing a crumbling bridge during a storm. Others cared only about his ability to keep the bandits away from their goods. None of his peers knew that Charley was \u003ca href=\"https://www.glaad.org/reference/covering-trans-community\">assigned female at birth\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Early Years\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The accounts of Parkhurst’s early years sometimes contradict one another. As far as we know, Parkhurst was born around 1812 in \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/50297431/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">New Hampshire\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some say Parkhurst spent his early years in an orphanage, then ran away to find work in stables. Others say Parkhurst worked on an \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/35077156/\">uncle’s farm\u003c/a> until they had a falling out, after which Parkhurst ran away to Rhode Island. Either way, around this time, young Parkhurst started wearing boys clothes, living as a male and learning how to ride horses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11742538\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11742538\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Tallyho-Coaching-Sioux-City-party-Coaching-at-the-Great-Hot-Springs-of-Dakota.jpg\" alt=\"Tallyho Coaching, Sioux City party Coaching at the Great Hot Springs of Dakota\" width=\"640\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Tallyho-Coaching-Sioux-City-party-Coaching-at-the-Great-Hot-Springs-of-Dakota.jpg 640w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Tallyho-Coaching-Sioux-City-party-Coaching-at-the-Great-Hot-Springs-of-Dakota-160x133.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A stagecoach back in the 1800s. \u003ccite>(Library of Congress)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Eventually, Parkhurst started working as a stage driver on the East Coast, until the Gold Rush brought him out West around 1850.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Gender Terms in History\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>One could use him or they as a pronoun for Parkhurst.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because ‘they’ is a wonderful nonbinary pronoun that can be used today to mark people who are sort of refusing or renouncing the gender binary,” says Don Romesburg, a historian and chair of women’s and gender studies at Sonoma State University. “But I think they can also be used for people in the past as a kind of marker of undecidability. I think that if you’re going to pick one wrong gender pronoun for Charley, it would be she. Because for as much of Charley’s life that Charley was an active agent in asserting a gendered self … he was he.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s hard to say if Parkhurst was trans because we don’t know why Parkhurst decided to live as a man. There could have been many motivations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Women were given very few economic opportunities in the mid-19th century California. They could be seamstresses or laundresses or teachers or sex workers essentially,” says Romesburg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plus, people who had romantic ties to someone of the same sex would have been marginalized at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s all sorts of reasons beyond perhaps a true expression of one’s gendered self that someone like Parkhurst might choose to live as a man for many years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Romesburg says, Parkhurst’s life is clearly part of trans history.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Gold Rush\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst ran stretches of road all around California — between Mariposa and Stockton, Oakland and San Jose, and San Juan and Santa Cruz. Parkhurst was highly sought after, working for many wealthy families, and even drove a large cargo of gold for Wells Fargo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11742554\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11742554\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/el-dorado-04487v-1020x638.jpg\" alt=\"Gold miners, El Dorado, California.

They brought a gun to Parkhurst’s head and threatened the passengers. Parkhurst’s gun was out of reach, and he was forced to give the bandits the money box. However Parkhurst defiantly told the bandits that if it happened again, it would be unpleasant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After that, Parkhurst was always prepared. The next time he was stopped by a famous desperado called “Sugarfoot,” Parkhurst shot him dead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t long before Parkhurst developed a reputation as one of the safest California “whips,” and became known as “\u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/283388836/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">the ‘boss’ driver of the road.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11742544\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11742544\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-1020x911.jpg\" alt=\"Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express Office\" width=\"640\" height=\"572\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-1020x911.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-160x143.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-800x715.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wells, Fargo & Co.’s Express Office \u003ccite>(Library of Congress/Lawrence & Houseworth)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But was living out on the road lonely?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While there were passengers floating in and out of Parkhurst’s life, it was said he often worked alone, serving as both driver and lookout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for love, it’s hard to say. There is a story about a poor widow who was about to lose her house. Parkhurst bought the house to give back to her. Some speculated Parkhurst did it for the widow’s daughter, who was pretty, but Parkhurst left that town soon after.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst retired from stagecoach driving after trains started crisscrossing the Golden State. He worked as a farmer and lumberman, where he “\u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/20424854/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">always commanded the highest wages\u003c/a>” and had saved “\u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/20424854/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">several thousands of dollars\u003c/a>” by that point. Parkhurst was also considered generous and social.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst was also registered to vote in 1867, about 50 years before women got suffrage. Some say Parkhurst could have been the first person assigned female at birth to cast a ballot in California for a presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charley continued to work until he developed severe rheumatism in his 60s, which eventually shriveled his limbs. Then in 1879, Parkhurst developed cancer of the tongue and died at the age of 67 near Watsonville, California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was when the public found out that Parkhurst was assigned female at birth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What followed was a national sensation.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignleft\">Often when talking about trans people, publications disclose birth names, usually with the implication that it is the person’s “real name.” \u003ca href=\"https://www.glaad.org/reference/covering-trans-community\">Guidelines for covering the trans community\u003c/a> instruct media outlets to treat chosen names as real names.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Across the country, papers printed stories that might be seen as insensitive today. A number of headlines erase Parkhurst’s experience living as a man: \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/20424854/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">Thirty Years in Disguise\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/457374668/?terms=charley%2Bparkhurst\">The Female Stage Driver\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/194684511/?terms=charley%2Bparkhurst\">A Queer Woman\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most national coverage of Parkhurst still conveyed a sense of awe in everything he accomplished. In Emily Skidmore’s book, \u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.com/True-Sex-Lives-Twentieth-Century-ebook/dp/B0757458G3\">“True Sex: the Lives of Trans Men at the Turn of the Century,”\u003c/a> she found that when gender histories of trans men are revealed, local communities tend to be quite sympathetic to that person. When national newspapers picked those stories up, the narratives shift to degeneracy, masquerading, fooling, disguising and pathology.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Parkhurst Today\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Since his death, Charley’s story has been told in more obscure historical texts, but now it seems Charley will take a more permanent place in California history books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FAIR Education Act passed in 2011 ensures the roles and contributions of LGBT Americans and people with disabilities be included in K–12 history education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Romesburg fought to include Charley in lesson plans and says, “It’s important that we see LGBT lives in the past so that we understand that queerness and transness is not something that simply appears after Stonewall, for example. But it’s something that’s been around in some form everywhere for always.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Great Stories From Trans History\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Charley highlights just one of many trans stories. To learn a little more, we’ve compiled a list of a few people in trans history to read about: \u003ca href=\"https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/the-incredible-chevalier-deon-who-left-france-as-a-male-spy-and-returned-as-a-christian-woman\">Chevalier D’Eon\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/obituaries/overlooked-marsha-p-johnson.html\">Marsha P.

He wore beaded riding gloves and used a whip on his horses — and to stay out of brawls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was tough, and he looked even tougher after he was half-blinded when a horse kicked him in the face (it was probably scared by a snake), which earned him the nickname “One-Eyed Charley.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some knew the story of his crossing a crumbling bridge during a storm. Others cared only about his ability to keep the bandits away from their goods. None of his peers knew that Charley was \u003ca href=\"https://www.glaad.org/reference/covering-trans-community\">assigned female at birth\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Early Years\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The accounts of Parkhurst’s early years sometimes contradict one another. As far as we know, Parkhurst was born around 1812 in \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/50297431/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">New Hampshire\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some say Parkhurst spent his early years in an orphanage, then ran away to find work in stables. Others say Parkhurst worked on an \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/35077156/\">uncle’s farm\u003c/a> until they had a falling out, after which Parkhurst ran away to Rhode Island. Either way, around this time, young Parkhurst started wearing boys clothes, living as a male and learning how to ride horses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11742538\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11742538\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Tallyho-Coaching-Sioux-City-party-Coaching-at-the-Great-Hot-Springs-of-Dakota.jpg\" alt=\"Tallyho Coaching, Sioux City party Coaching at the Great Hot Springs of Dakota\" width=\"640\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Tallyho-Coaching-Sioux-City-party-Coaching-at-the-Great-Hot-Springs-of-Dakota.jpg 640w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Tallyho-Coaching-Sioux-City-party-Coaching-at-the-Great-Hot-Springs-of-Dakota-160x133.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A stagecoach back in the 1800s. \u003ccite>(Library of Congress)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Eventually, Parkhurst started working as a stage driver on the East Coast, until the Gold Rush brought him out West around 1850.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Gender Terms in History\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>One could use him or they as a pronoun for Parkhurst.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because ‘they’ is a wonderful nonbinary pronoun that can be used today to mark people who are sort of refusing or renouncing the gender binary,” says Don Romesburg, a historian and chair of women’s and gender studies at Sonoma State University. “But I think they can also be used for people in the past as a kind of marker of undecidability. I think that if you’re going to pick one wrong gender pronoun for Charley, it would be she. Because for as much of Charley’s life that Charley was an active agent in asserting a gendered self … he was he.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s hard to say if Parkhurst was trans because we don’t know why Parkhurst decided to live as a man. There could have been many motivations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Women were given very few economic opportunities in the mid-19th century California. They could be seamstresses or laundresses or teachers or sex workers essentially,” says Romesburg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plus, people who had romantic ties to someone of the same sex would have been marginalized at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s all sorts of reasons beyond perhaps a true expression of one’s gendered self that someone like Parkhurst might choose to live as a man for many years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Romesburg says, Parkhurst’s life is clearly part of trans history.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Gold Rush\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst ran stretches of road all around California — between Mariposa and Stockton, Oakland and San Jose, and San Juan and Santa Cruz.

They brought a gun to Parkhurst’s head and threatened the passengers. Parkhurst’s gun was out of reach, and he was forced to give the bandits the money box. However Parkhurst defiantly told the bandits that if it happened again, it would be unpleasant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After that, Parkhurst was always prepared. The next time he was stopped by a famous desperado called “Sugarfoot,” Parkhurst shot him dead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t long before Parkhurst developed a reputation as one of the safest California “whips,” and became known as “\u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/283388836/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">the ‘boss’ driver of the road.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11742544\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11742544\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-1020x911.jpg\" alt=\"Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express Office\" width=\"640\" height=\"572\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-1020x911.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-160x143.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office-800x715.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/Wells-Fargo-Co.s-Express-Office.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wells, Fargo & Co.’s Express Office \u003ccite>(Library of Congress/Lawrence & Houseworth)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But was living out on the road lonely?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While there were passengers floating in and out of Parkhurst’s life, it was said he often worked alone, serving as both driver and lookout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for love, it’s hard to say. There is a story about a poor widow who was about to lose her house. Parkhurst bought the house to give back to her. Some speculated Parkhurst did it for the widow’s daughter, who was pretty, but Parkhurst left that town soon after.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst retired from stagecoach driving after trains started crisscrossing the Golden State. He worked as a farmer and lumberman, where he “\u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/20424854/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">always commanded the highest wages\u003c/a>” and had saved “\u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/20424854/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">several thousands of dollars\u003c/a>” by that point. Parkhurst was also considered generous and social.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parkhurst was also registered to vote in 1867, about 50 years before women got suffrage. Some say Parkhurst could have been the first person assigned female at birth to cast a ballot in California for a presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Charley continued to work until he developed severe rheumatism in his 60s, which eventually shriveled his limbs. Then in 1879, Parkhurst developed cancer of the tongue and died at the age of 67 near Watsonville, California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was when the public found out that Parkhurst was assigned female at birth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What followed was a national sensation.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignleft\">Often when talking about trans people, publications disclose birth names, usually with the implication that it is the person’s “real name.” \u003ca href=\"https://www.glaad.org/reference/covering-trans-community\">Guidelines for covering the trans community\u003c/a> instruct media outlets to treat chosen names as real names.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Across the country, papers printed stories that might be seen as insensitive today. A number of headlines erase Parkhurst’s experience living as a man: \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/20424854/?terms=Charley%2BParkhurst\">Thirty Years in Disguise\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/457374668/?terms=charley%2Bparkhurst\">The Female Stage Driver\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newspapers.com/image/194684511/?terms=charley%2Bparkhurst\">A Queer Woman\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most national coverage of Parkhurst still conveyed a sense of awe in everything he accomplished. In Emily Skidmore’s book, \u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.com/True-Sex-Lives-Twentieth-Century-ebook/dp/B0757458G3\">“True Sex: the Lives of Trans Men at the Turn of the Century,”\u003c/a> she found that when gender histories of trans men are revealed, local communities tend to be quite sympathetic to that person. When national newspapers picked those stories up, the narratives shift to degeneracy, masquerading, fooling, disguising and pathology.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Parkhurst Today\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Since his death, Charley’s story has been told in more obscure historical texts, but now it seems Charley will take a more permanent place in California history books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FAIR Education Act passed in 2011 ensures the roles and contributions of LGBT Americans and people with disabilities be included in K–12 history education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Romesburg fought to include Charley in lesson plans and says, “It’s important that we see LGBT lives in the past so that we understand that queerness and transness is not something that simply appears after Stonewall, for example. But it’s something that’s been around in some form everywhere for always.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Great Stories From Trans History\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Charley highlights just one of many trans stories.

Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, called the administration policy “repugnant.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is absolutely shameful that this President continues to actively discriminate against our transgender service members, who are bravely serving this country,” Wiener said in a statement. “Every American should be able to serve their country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Defense Department said its use of the word “deficiencies” is military lingo for when an individual fails to meet standards to maintain a lethal force. It is not a reference to gender dysphoria, a condition of extreme distress because of not identifying with one’s biological gender, Lt. Col. Carla Gleason said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The only thing deficient is any medical science behind this decision,” American Medical Association President Dr. Barbara L.

But the final legal injunction was lifted in March, though new legal challenges are expected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Muller said she and other transgender troops feel demoralized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Under our ethical standards, we can’t say anything derogatory against the administration, while we are being presented in a disparaging and derogatory light,” said Muller, 37, who is based in Fort Carson, Colorado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Troops like Muller, who began openly identifying as a woman in 2016, are worried they will be discharged. The administration says it will not boot current service members who transitioned before the Pentagon issued its directive, though the government has also said it retains the right to eliminate that protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Muller said the policy will cost the armed forces far more in terms of losing experienced personnel like herself and training replacements than any costs associated with specialized health care for trans service members. She plans to retire from the military next year after serving 20 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new policy, a service member can be discharged based on a diagnosis of gender dysphoria if he or she is “unable or unwilling to adhere to all applicable standards, including the standards associated with his or her biological sex, or seeks transition to another gender.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It said the discharge should come after an individual “has been formally counseled on his or her failure to adhere to such standards and has been given an opportunity to correct those deficiencies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They can dress it up in whatever words they want, but when you carefully look at this it’s total disrespect for these human beings by saying a core piece of them is not acceptable,” former acting U.S. Army Surgeon General Gale Pollock said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pollock signed a statement with three former U.S. surgeons general and two former military surgeons general, saying they are “troubled by the Defense Department’s characterization of the need to undergo gender transition as a ‘deficiency,’ and by the addition of gender dysphoria to official lists of ‘congenital or developmental defects’ that include bed-wetting and ‘disturbances of perception, thinking, emotional control, or behavior.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An estimated 14,700 troops identify as transgender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March, the House passed a nonbinding resolution opposing the Trump administration’s move to restrict transgender men and women from military service in a vote of 238-185.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Military chiefs testified before Congress last year that they found no problems with transgender troops on morale or unit cohesion. Many have received medals since the armed forces welcomed them in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A transgender person would have to meet the same standards of fitness and deployability and readiness as anyone else in order to join the military or to stay in the military,” said Shannon Minter, legal director for the National Center for Lesbian Rights, which is suing the Trump administration over the policy. “There’s no reason to have a special rule that excludes transgender people just for being transgender other than pure discrimination.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are still challenging it in court,” Minter said. “This is not the end of the story.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Michelle Wiley and Monica Lam and The Associated Press’s Julie Watson, David Crary and Susannah George contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",
