This week, Olivia speaks to writer Paris Lees.
The two discuss the joys of being single, how Paris found herself experimenting with the idea of celibacy, and why we fetishise authenticity so much in relationships.
They also talk about transphobia in the dating world and Paris’s new book, What It Feels Like For A Girl, and how it felt for Paris to revisit her childhood.
Finally, they discuss the perils of social media and why Paris believes that being a trans person in the public eye is like being a “professional victim”.
