Gender Matters: Insights from a Physician

From Headlines to Half-Truths: The Stories Shaping Transgender Rights (62)

Dr Shannon Season 1 Episode 62

We all know numbers can be misleading—but what happens when distorted facts are used to justify taking away people’s rights?

In this episode, I break down some of the most common narratives used to stir fear and confusion about transgender people—from bathrooms to sports to military service. Many of these stories aren’t just misleading—they’re factually incorrect. Still, they continue to shape public opinion and policy.

Rather than offer quick answers, this episode invites you to look more critically at how information is presented. Because when it comes to transgender rights, the truth often gets buried beneath sensational headlines and selective storytelling.
