What is "transgender?" How is sexual identity determined? What are the challenges and opportunites facing those who don't fit into established cultural definitions of gender? What is this all about?

In this broadcast, we get an education and have some frank and positive discussion on the issue. Joining us is Stephanie Guttormson of the Richard Dawkins Foundation and Thinking Stephtically, YouTube activist Zinnia Jones, Callie Wright of the Gaytheist Manifesto podcast, and activist Danielle Muscato...all transgender individuals.
