Keeping Sex Private (Part 1)

One of the central issues that has arisen in terms of the relationship between trans rights and women’s rights is whether trans people have a legal entitlement to keep information about their biological sex at birth private. In this episode, I’m joined by Tim Pitt-Payne KC, one of the UK’s leading privacy and information law barristers to discuss the law in this area. This is the first of three episodes on this topic. This episode discusses the general legal rules around the right to privacy and applies that cases involving the request for same-sex intimate care.
