Journalist/anchor Katie Couric has been hard at work with a new gender and identity documentary. She recently stopped by The Ellen Show to chat about her work and what she explores in the gender and transgender world.

Couric and DeGeneres were very happy see each other and the journalist spoke about all of the amazing qualities her husband possesses.

DeGeneres said she wished the entire audience could have seen the documentary before it's premiere on National Geographic. Couric said there is a whole new vocabulary that exists and that it's much more open and accepted with college aged kids.

She said it's very hard for the older individuals to wrap their heads around the new terms, however, she wanted to give people the vocabulary and tools to have a real conversation about gender and identity.

Her hopes are to help people appreciate each other and destroy the fear and hate people have within them. There is a difference between gender and sexual orientation.

Gender is who you go to bed as, while sexual orientation is who you go to bed with. You can learn more about Couric's eye-opening documentary in The Ellen Show video below.
