Host Mirelle Harris explores what it means to be transgender. Is gender something that has been invented by society? What actually makes a woman or a man? What impact will the recent consultation of the Gender Recognition Act have on the debate?

We meet Juno Roche, writer, campaigner and transgender woman; Olivia Palmer from Mayday for Women, a radical feminist group that opposes any changes felt to endanger female spaces; and Hannah Witton, sex and relationships YouTuber and author.

Mirelle also speaks to activist and writer, Sugar Swan; Jamie Pallas from Gendered Intelligence; hears the experiences of Lizzie Smyth who wanted to transition; and talks to users of a ladies only pool in London.

There are also interviews with Stephanie Davis-Arai from Transgender Trend; and Lucy Jeffries from Quiet Down There, who organises artist led projects for young people, including Hijack, which aims to start them thinking about gender equality.
