Since OUTinPerth broke the story about the new Lord Mayor’s comments about gender the story has been picked up by newspapers, websites and television stations around the country, as well as overseas media outlets.

On October 29th, the day after the story was first published, Graeme was invited on to 6PR’s Breakfast Show which is hosted by the Lord Mayor and his longtime radio partner Steve Mills.

Graeme spoke about his own journey is learning more about the lives of people who are transgender, and what he’d learned from speaking to people, and covering major medical conferences as a journalist.
