War on Gender
Wednesday 28 March
War on Gender


Partnership event with Leeds Combined Arts
war on gender: rainbow flag
Transgender rights have recently come to the fore as a social issue, and yet there are many who feel that this is being pushed too far and too fast. Claire Rae Randall is a transsexual woman who transitioned over thirty years ago and is deeply concerned about this precipitous rate of change. Can this have a happy ending?

Claire Rae Randall’s forthcoming book The War on Gender examines the progress of trans from a personal perspective that has seen it come from being a marginal issue to one that is now having a disproportionate influence on social values.
