#4 – A new gender frontier

from The Backstory

#04  A new gender frontierFelix was born female and grew up as a girl with a different name. At 17, having gone through a lot of change at home, and in a lesbian relationship with Rebecca, Felix started to question his gender. Rebecca began to identify as gender neutral and Felix realised he identified as male and started the transitioning process. They both talk to Claire to explain this new gender frontier where people who now feel they weren’t assigned the right gender at birth or don’t want to identify as either gender are making big changes in their lives. Felix and Rebecca give us an honest and at times amusing insight into the trans world. Looking for more information about terminology?
