Abstract

The objectives of this article are two-fold. First, it is a personal reflection on the need for reproductive health-care spaces and services where sex and gender binaries are challenged and room for non-binary people is made. Second, it is a critical commentary on why and how cis- and trans-normative understandings of sex and gender form the foundation of reproductive health care as it is currently delivered. Taken together, this article is a call to action for nurses to be creative in challenging sex and gender binaries in their provision of reproductive health care.<br /> (© Copyright 2020 Creative Health Care Management.)
