In another special edition of The Sleepover Club, we're joined by Vice features editor Hannah Ewens to discuss her recent long read about how the debate over human rights for trans people came to dominate mainstream UK media and divide British feminists.
A TERF is a trans-exclusionary radical 'feminist'. With Boris Johnson planning to roll back the gender recognition act, Trump narrowing LGBTQ+ rights, and JK Rowling penning an essay largely deemed as an attack on the transgender community, trans lives have yet again been placed as up for debate by our media and society at large. In this episode, Ione, Olivia, and Hannah discuss how TERF ideology has riddled British feminism, what cisgender feminists must do counter-act it, and how representation / our treatment of transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming people in the media needs to change.
