Episode 45: Fighting for Trans Rights in Hong Kong 🏳️‍⚧️ w/ Saxon Chung
"Hong Kong’s top court has handed a victory to two transgender men who challenged a government policy that bars transgender people from changing the gender marker on their identity cards if they have not undergone full sex reassignment surgery (SRS)." - Hong Kong Free Press (https://hongkongfp.com/2023/02/06/hong-kong-trans-men-win-appeal-against-govt-id-card-amendment-policy-in-landmark-ruling/)
This court case sparked Chrystal and Summer to talk about the transgender community in Hong Kong. In this episode, they discuss the tedious and unjust process for people to get sex reassignment surgery, the barriers and discrimination trans people face daily, and the heartbreaking implications trans people have to face. They also have a special guest, Saxon Chung come on to talk about his experience.
