A Trans Hero
Cover illustration for "Die Trans-Mission", the title of the August issue of Cicero, a German magazine dedicated to current affairs and political culture.
In one of the central texts, journalist Ben Krischke retraces the debate on the new German law on self-determination of gender identity and, more generally, on the identity politics of the government coalition, highlighting the critical positions of biologists, psychoanalysts, and feminist activists. The article compares radically opposite positions on issues such as the use of puberty blockers, medical paths for young people with gender dysphoria, the influence of queer movements, and the consequences for women’s rights and single-sex spaces, offering a portrait of a particularly tense and polarized debate.
