Sarah Keyworth - Are You a Boy or a Girl?

Series 2

1: "Where are we now?"

Duration: 14 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 LWLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 FM

Available for years

Award-winning comedian Sarah Keyworth returns with their Radio 4 series Are You a Boy or a Girl? Since the first series aired in 2020, the debate around gender has exploded and taken on a life of its own, all culminating with one question ‘should I be allowed to decide who I am?’ Sarah has recently come out as non-binary (a subtle soft-launch in The Guardian newspaper) and is ready to share some more of their own brand of mx-information. That’s gender non-conforming information, the cool non-binary cousin of misinformation.

In this first episode, Sarah talks us through how their gender is perceived throughout their daily life; from when they walk out the door, to being in a changing room, to getting a coffee; and we find out why they sometimes have to hum 'call me maybe' in a public toilet.

Written by and starring Sarah Keyworth with additional material from Ruby Clyde.
