Woman's hour this morning 30.07.2018

[QuarksandLeptons]

"What is it like to parent a child experiencing gender dysphoria? How does that child experience wanting to be recognised as a different gender from a young age? Deni Parkes, mother of 24 year old, Kye, a trans man, and Aimee Challenor, a 20 year old trans woman speak to Jane."

The first speaker sounds male. Radio does not give you much to go on other than voice.

And even that is not easy when there are massive tnt explosions and roaring enderdragons or whatever

Aimee Challoner is a prominan activist for trans rights. Aimee also has an influential position in The Green Party.

There is often discussion with regards Aimee & the mass 'terf blocker'

Aimee is frequently interviewed on BBC, Pink News & Independent.

Aimee Challoner was interviewed with Miranda Yardley for BBC World Service recently:

Outrageous that Womans hour had no problem with the idea of what is essentially FGM . The only doubt was the concern for how Deni might feel, but her needs are as nothing to the needs of these confused youg people. Nothing about the fact that there are many gender critical voices who have written tothe the production team about this, and they know full well the problems . Nothing about the grooming process and the fact that there is contagion through social media. Nothing about stereotyped behaviour , nothing about why girls hate their bodies without having to transition , nothing about why FGM is available on the NHS when others are not getting lifesaving operations. Nothing about the poor mental health services or the connection to autism. I despair. Time to write in yet again.
