Episode 45: 'common sense'

When transphobes call the definition of a woman ‘common sense’, what do they actually mean? We have little in common and, at least to us, they speak little sense. Following the Supreme Court’s judgment on trans rights, Mary uses Andrea Long Chu’s radical work ‘Females’ to try to understand what trans-exclusionary feminists feel they are ‘losing’ to trans people; while Ell explores studies that find commonality and solidarity between bi+ and trans communities.If you can, please don’t hesitate to donate to the following causes raising money for trans rights:https://www.translegalclinic.com/donate https://goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder/supreme-court-human-rights-for-trans-people/ https://notaphase.org/ https://transactual.org.uk/get-involved/ Enjoying Life of Bi?
