Podcaster Andrew Gold debates trans person Katy Jon Went about trans activism, changing rooms, sports and autogynephilia (AGP). The pair have a fun and interesting discussion, and occasionally disagree. #gendercritical #transdebate #debate   IMPORTANT: Despite our differences, I think Katy is very reasonable, and was courageous and transparent enough to travel to meet me, give up an afternoon and debate/inform me. Whether Katy is a he, she, or they, Katy is certainly not an 'it'. Remember the human in your comments, and use logic and reason WITHOUT ad-hominem attacks on Katy's person.

Katy - Jon Went by truestorieslive

The idea of ‘safe space' has migrated into the arts - in all aspects of performance, in arts education and practice, from theatre, public galleries and museums to spoken word, music and dance. It has become a fundamental idea to community and identity-based art collectives and groups. Defined in the Oxford English Dictionary as ‘…an environment in which people, especially those belonging to a marginalised group, can feel confident that they will not be exposed to discrimination, criticism, harassment or emotional harm…', safe spaces are not just physical art spaces like galleries and rehearsal rooms. They are metaphorical, therapeutic: spaces free from judgemental speech and unwelcome criticism where identity, at both an individual and group level, is affirmed, nurtured and supported. The term 'safe space' connects with the idea of art as therapy, but it also joins up with anxiety around identity politics. For many young artists from diverse backgrounds, safe spaces are vital in a hostile world, offering protection from prejudice against women and people of colour, against the LGBTQ and trans communities, from Islamophobia. The term has become a key idea in arts education too, now embraced by institutions and students alike. But should the arts really be a ‘safe space'? Isn't the purpose of art to challenge, interrogate identity and our ideas of who we are? The struggle is between protecting artistic self-expression in a controlled environment, encouraging previously excluded voices on the one hand - and then, on the other, the easy slide into a silencing of troubling ideas, excluding ideas or projects that might make people feel vulnerable, offended or uncomfortable but that have artistic worth nonetheless. Critics of the safe space movement are arguing that art is valuable because it must be, in the best sense, an ‘unsafe' space. Whereas art once produced manifestos and disrupted safe spaces, it now creates them, looking inward rather than engaging outward. Hearing from artists across a range of backgrounds and disciplines this feature explores the history and politics of ‘safe space' and its growing hold on the arts today. Contributors include the theatre director Ola Ince, former artistic director of English National Opera Daniel Kramer, psychotherapist Adam Phillips, author and former editor of Frieze Magazine Jennifer Higgie, sound artist and sculptor Abbas Zahedi, director of queer theatre Charlie Caine, poet and compere Rakaya Fetuga, safe space facilitator Katy Jon Went, comedian Tom Walker (aka Jonathan Pie), sociologist Frank Furedi and FUBUNATION dance collective featuring Rhys Dennis and Waddah Sinadah.

If you go on to the Royal Academy's website you will no longer find work by the textile artist Jess de Wahls in the shop - in fact you will find no mention of her. It was last week that the Academy posted on their Instagram stories that her work would no longer be stocked because of her 'transphobic views' - they had contacted her just before this announcement and said they had had complaints about her. Mishal Husain spoke to Katy Jon-Went, a transgender thinker and writer and first to the artist Jess de Wahls. (Image: the Royal Academy, Credit: BBC)

'I don't have gender dysphoria. I have gender euphoria!'

This is a slightly different episode than usual. It’s Transgender Awareness Week this week, and Esther has a conversation with two cisgender LGBTIQA+ people; Tiga-Rose, an intimacy coach and sex therapist in training, and Ophelia, an historian, archivist and conservator, under the watchful eye (or ear) of project co-creator Katy Jon Went, who is transgender and non-binary, about how to be a better gender-diverse ally. We also talk about how to introduce pronouns into conversations and what to do if we get it wrong, the power of names and their importance in identity, ignorance versus privilege when it comes to wanting to be an ally, why we need more unity in the LGBTIQA+ community, how small actions can make a big difference, and that being willing to be wrong and have awkward conversations is essential.

A non-binary transgender person going by they or she pronouns. Katy Jon Went talks about her life, love and passions.  WHAT WE DISCUSS How being transgender (and the operation you had) affected their relationships How their mental health (bipolar ups and suicidal downs) affected their current relationship Why Katy and her partner have both chosen to live apart What the most critical component is, in their view, to maintaining a good relationship The effect of feeling asexual has on their relationship, and whether their relationship lacks something most other relationships would expect to be central to it.   Katy Jon Went ABOUT KATY JON   Katy Jon Went is a non-binary transgender person going by they or she pronouns. They do not feel limited or defined by labels and prefer to be seen as a person, as a human being, before any gender, sexuality, or other identity boxes. Katy has mental health conditions including bipolar disorder and has made friends with their health and is transparent about every aspect of their life, with all its ups and downs. They are a regular speaker at schools, universities and political protests on mental health, LGBT, and human rights and advocacy issues. They run several support groups for trans and non-binary spectrum people, their partners and families. Katy is a multipassionate polypreneur having founded many business ventures and support enterprises. She trained in Economics, Computing and Theology and these formed early career choices, but since a mid-life realisation that she needed to be fully authentic, as well as coming to terms with some mental health issues has subsequently developed into a speaker, writer and support group organiser on LGBT, wellbeing and other human rights issues. She is often on TV, radio talking about her life journey and how it has affected what she does now.
