In the last ten years, laws, company policies, school and university curricula, sport, medical protocols, and the media have been reshaped to privilege self-declared gender identity over biological sex. Joyce investigates the consequences of redefining "man" and "woman", the significance of our bodies, fairness in sport, and children's development.
