Super Special: Before We Were Trans (with Kit Heyam)

As soon as I read Kit Heyam's new book "Before We Were Trans" I knew I had to try and get them on the podcast. And happy day, Kit agreed! We talk in this chat about the messiness of trans and queer history, women in sexy lady pants, the gender of hats, Njinga, Catalina de Erauso, Kristina of Sweden and MUCH MORE!
