Trans Day of Visibility (3-31-23)
Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Transgender But Were Afraid to Ask
Transgender identity is often thought of as a relatively recent phenomenon and right-wing transphobes like to characterize it as a 'trendy' fad but in fact, there are people who anticipate contemporary transgender identities going back millenia; veteran transgender activist Pauline Park talks with Naomi Brussel and Stahimili Mapp about what transgender is and isn't and why right-wing Republicans are pushing an unprecedented wave of legislation in state legislatures across the country to limit and roll back the rights of trans people and especially trans youth.
Topics to be discussed:
1) Why are we doing this show?
2) Trans can be defined: legal, sex designation, biology, genetics, chromosomes.
3) Historical background
4) Concentric circles diagram & terminology
5) Trans as an umbrella term
6) Socially acceptable questions re gender identity, trans identity, hormones & surgery, etc.
