Trans Kids Exist vs. No They Don’t

In this Spectrum Street Epistemology episode, we engage the claim: There is such a thing as a trans child. This assertion sparks conflict, exposing raw tensions in beliefs about biology, personal identity, and medical ethics.

Researcher Mia Hughes steps into the fray, arguing that no one is "born trans"—biology dictates one is either male or female. Opposite her, a parent of a non-binary child defends the concept, citing intersex conditions, brain-body mismatches (e.g., a "female brain" in a male body), and the fluidity of gender expression. The conversation quickly spirals into deeper question, most importantly: Are we mislabeling kids who might grow up gay?
