Being Transgender
Manage episode 182269805 series 1301273
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.
