Being Transgender

Available for over a year

Juno Dawson thinks we should get over our prurient obsession with transgender people and value them like any other individuals, in her case as a writer of young adult fiction. "All any of us can ever talk about is our own experience of transitioning, but this has intrinsically tied our value to - at best - our heroic journey and - at worst - our genitals." Recorded at the Hay Festival. Presenter: Helen Zaltzman Producer: Sheila Cook.
