Juno Dawson & C N Lester (2017 Event)
What makes a woman a woman? Is it her biology? Is it a rite of passage? Is it society? As she transitions from male to female, Juno Dawson's The Gender Games explores feminism and femininity in culture, science and society. Co-founder of the first national group for young LGBTI people in the UK, academic and activist C N Lester's Trans Like Me analyses the most pressing questions of the transgender debate. In this event recorded live at the 2017 Edinburgh International Book Festival, the pair discuss these issues and more.
