This is reasonably balanced on the TRA vs feminists debate though there are some shockers in there too...

Was particularly shocked by Helen Webberley , one would surely expect a GP to be aware of the fact that boys don't have periods...

Helen Webberley said she was 'shocked' that only 3-4% of the young people who attended the NI gender clinic had had any medical intervention (hormone blockers). She then implied that the rest of them would probably kill themselves. Watch from about 18:10 for that little gem.

I think her comments about periods referred to trans boys (i.e. girls).

The programme did show some sort of balance, though. Nora Calder sounded like someone from here.

Yes but she called them boys. She sounded very much of the "some girls have penises, some boys have vaginas get over it " school of thought, I'm pretty sure that's not what they learn in medical school ...

Nora Calder is great, I see her quite a lot on twitter
