Option 1

 * Intersex
 * The page was well put together and had many sections of information about intersex. However, in the history section it didn't mention Native American history. I think it would be important to talk about how different cultures viewed intersex and how they related it to their religion.
 * Native American men-women, lesbians, two-spirits: Contemporary and historical perspectives: Journal of Lesbian Studies: Vol 20, No 3-4 . (n.d.). Retrieved November 6, 2020, from https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10894160.2016.1148966
 * Blackwood, E. (1984). Sexuality and Gender in Certain Native American Tribes: The Case of Cross-Gender Females. Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society, 10(1), 27–42. https://doi.org/10.1086/494112

Option 2

 * History of cross-dressing
 * I think that the article does a good job explaining the history of cross-dressing. I would add more about how sometimes women did it for protection. Also talk about the gold rush which caused the westward expansion, which caused cross-dressing to become more acceptable because there were very few women.

Option 3

 * Sexual orientation discrimination
 * This page needs a lot of work done. It only contains two sections to cover the topic. I would be very beneficial to add a section about the history of discrimination towards people with different sexual orientations throughout the United States.
