Call for tolerance of gender orientation

In a talk titled, “The dignity of difference in relation to gender issues”, at the September WIZO (Women’s International Zionist Organisation) Forum, Carr said we should treat those with a gender orientation different to ourselves with dignity and compassion. Otherness doesn’t entitle us to be superior or behave in a demeaning way, he said, but sympathising with a person’s gender orientation doesn’t necessarily imply endorsement.
