1. Sense of self

Some traits I associate myself with are kindness, respect enthusiasm, and playfulness.

I change a lot in my life so it’s hard to keep track of my identity and self. I feel as if I have a few changes in my personality when I'm with different people, but I still typically maintain the traits mentioned earlier. My interests also stay the same, as I am quite fond of watching animations.

I have my prized possessions: my phone, my varsity jacket, a purple thing

2. Self-esteem

I’m alright, I don’t think much of myself. I believe that I am neither good nor bad, just neutral. I have a lot of enthusiasm, but possibly too much.

3. Self-worth

The altered phrase that I believe fits me:

I am of a little bit of value, I am slightly lovable, and I deserve to be treated with respect and dignity.

I believe that most people deserve to be treated with respect, including myself, but I do not do much to have great value or loveability.

4. Self-confidence

I don’t know how far I’ll make it in careers, but I’m fairly confident in the quality of my school work.

5. Self-respect

I think I’m cool, but I’m not much. I’m fairly average as a person, not better than others but not a lot worse.

What is the focus of this message? (link this to a topic you have covered in class)

The focus of the poster is that transgender people have to fight to be in the 'right body', whereas most cisgender people are born into the right body. This poster explores the topic of sexual and gender diversity, more specifically gender diversity.

Why do you think the images have been used?

The toilet sign images are a reference to the standard gendered toilets, identifiable as male and female to all viewers of the poster. The middle toilet sign person looks to be a mix of female and male, indicating gender diversity. The colours also indicate the gender, blue meaning boy, pink meaning girl, but purple being a mix of both colours. The top text that 'some people are born into the right body' is coloured pink and blue, meaning females and males are born into the right body. The bottom text 'some have to fight for it' is coloured purple, which shows that transgender people are not born into the right body.

Who is the intended audience of this message? Why?

The intended audience of the message is a neutral or uneducated audience on the topic of gender diversity. The message briefly expresses the difficulty of being gender diverse, allowing the audience to understand that the life of a transgender person is not easy like its sometimes made out to be.

How can your image help shape the identities/beliefs of adolescents?

The image can help provide insight to the struggles of transgender people, hopefully influencing the audience to understand transgender people. One popular misconception for transgender people is that it is easy for transgender people to change their genders and spy on the opposite sex in the bathroom, but this poster is trying to disprove those misconceptions by saying it is not easy. Therefore the poster also helps shape beliefs by disproving factually incorrect beliefs.
