21. Transness, Eid and Christmas: A Love Story with Mie and Jalal

As a trans man, how do you work out what kind of man you are? Jalal and Mie have recently been the focus of a new Danish documentary series called 'Macho', which explores exactly this theme in Jalal's life. In this episode, we interview the couple about navigating Danish-Arab cultural norms, trans healthcare, and masculinity, but also how to be a good partner and ally to a trans person.
