{"product_id":"the-transgender-issue","title":"The Transgender Issue","description":"\u003cp\u003eTrans people in Britain today have become a culture war 'issue'. Despite making up less than one percent of the country's population, they are the subjects of a toxic and increasingly polarized 'debate' which generates reliable controversy for newspapers and talk shows. This media frenzy conceals a simple fact: that we are having the wrong conversation, a conversation in which trans people themselves are reduced to a talking point and denied a meaningful voice. In this powerful book, Shon Faye reclaims the idea of the 'transgender issue' to uncover the reality of what it means to be trans in a transphobic society. In doing so, she provides a compelling, wide-ranging analysis of trans lives from youth to old age, exploring work, family, housing, healthcare, the prison system and trans participation in the LGBTQ+ and feminist communities, in contemporary Britain and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57940995113334,"sku":"9780141991801","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/9857\/1159\/files\/9780141991801.jpg?v=1779560315","url":"https:\/\/bookbag.mom\/products\/the-transgender-issue","provider":"Bookbag Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
