Hosts: Bette (she/they ), Hazel (she/her), and Ez (he/him)
What are the factors causing increased numbers of out transmasc kids in recent years and why are anti-trans activists so eager to target them? Bette (she/they), Ez (he/him) and Hazel (she/her) theorise about this and other pressing questions, like why do so many cis men smell bad? Special nod to Lisa Littman, inventor of the junk-science theory "rapid-onset gender dysphoria" and the inspiration for so many bans on gender-affirming care for kids.
