In Britain today, trans people make up less than 1% of the population - and yet they are the subject matter of relentless, dehumanising ‘debate’. Join Shon Faye in discussion of her debut The Transgender Issue, which cuts through the media frenzy and reveals that we have been having the wrong conversation for far too long. Shon Faye is a writer, journalist, editor, presenter, and host of the podcast Call Me Mother.
