Description
In this episode, Marcelle and Raimi look closely at the misconception that trans children are a new phenomenon. They discuss the emergence of terms like ‘transtrender’ or ‘rapid onset gender dysphoria,' and consider the long history of trans-ness in children. Then, Marcelle offers a historical and material analysis of the social constructs we have around children, and, with Raimi, considers the value of surfacing, exploring and honoring trans histories.
