Trans Kids: It's Time to Talk (2018x49)

Air date: Nov 21, 2018

Psychotherapist and author Stella O'Malley reflects on the huge rise in numbers of young people embarking on gender transition, through the prism of her own experience as a child with gender identity issues. As a child in the 1970s and 80s, Stella was convinced she should be a boy, but is now a married woman with two children. She examines how the experiences and options open to transgender children today compare with her own childhood, and asks what person she might now be, had these choices been available to her.
