BBC Radio 4 - Analysis, Beyond Binary

Linda Pressly explores the challenge to conventional ideas from 'gender-neutral' people.

Linda Pressly asks if being 'non-binary' breaks the last identity taboo, and explores the challenges it creates for the law, society and conventional concepts about gender.

In communities around the globe, genderqueer, gender-variant and gender-fluid people are rejecting the categories of male and female, and attempting to re-define gender identity. Linda Pressly asks if being non-binary breaks the last identity taboo, and explores the challenges it creates for the law, society and conventional concepts about the very nature of gender.
