‘Desexing Society’ — a new Australian podcast by Stassja Frei

From the Desexing Society website:

Desexing Society is the first podcast to critically examine the transgender industry in Australia. There are 2 Seasons so far.

See Season 2, Episode 4, ‘Lesbians’ for interviews with Sand Hall and Carole Ann on the lesbian struggles fior lesbian space in Austrralia.

Season 1

Over the last decade, hundreds of thousands of young people around the world have started identifying as transgender. Healthcare professionals working with gender dysphoric children and adolescents have adopted a controversial treatment model known as “gender affirming care.” It involves agreeing with the patient that they’re meant to be the opposite sex. Medical interventions attempting to change a child’s sex begin at the onset of puberty, which for girls can be as early as 9 years old. Can doctors really predict which children are going to be transsexual in adulthood?

In this 8-part series, we’ll explore the origins of gender affirming care, how it became embedded in Australia’s public health system and the tragic consequences of misdiagnosis. We’ll also look at how public schools are contributing to the youth gender dysphoria epidemic, and more.

Season 2

In 2013 the federal Sex Discrimination Act was quietly amended to add protections for transgender people – those with a special “gender identity.” The flow on effect for girls and women has been devastating. Men who say they’re women have been welcomed into women’s sport, women’s toilets and change rooms and even women’s prisons. Wherever a man’s gender identity rights clash with women’s sex based rights, institutions across Australia have sided with men who say they’re women.

In season 2 of Desexing Society, we’ll explore the systemic problems that arise when men are treated as though they’re women under the law. We’ll also look at what happens on a personal level to the wives and children of men who transition.
