  1. 5

    Trans people are a risk to children.

    One of the most emotionally charged and widely deployed misconceptions. In this episode, we confront it head-on with data, child welfare expertise, and the lived reality of trans parents and educators.

  2. 4

    Trans people are mentally iIl.

    In 2019, the World Health Organisation reclassified gender incongruence; removing it from its list of mental disorders. Uganda's health system has yet to follow. We talk pathologisation, healthcare access, and what an affirming health system actually requires.The science has moved. This conversation demands the system does too.

  3. 3

    Trans people are a western import.

    The most common and damaging misconception in the Ugandan context is that trans identity is foreign, colonial, or imposed. Int this episode, we talk a bit about pre-colonial African history, linguistics, and oral tradition to demonstrate that gender diversity is indigenous.
