{"product_id":"9780241423141","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":"Allen Lane","offers":[{"title":"Shon \/ Faye","offer_id":40036350427184,"sku":"9780241423141","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/products\/9780241423141_d046ba52-de9b-4f79-9091-aa2eb861abdf.jpg?v=1645703769","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.live\/products\/9780241423141","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
