What happened when people from the trans community were asked to answer questions they often hear

What's the difference between transvestite and transgender? Which bathroom do you use? Are you a drag queen? What do you do in bed? Have you had 'the op'?

These are just some of the questions commonly asked of trans people, and the BBC Three show Free Speech convinced some members of the trans community to actually answer them.

A video featuring award-winning journalist and activist Paris Lees, and My Transsexual Summer star Fox Fisher has already been watched more than 3million times on the Free Speech Facebook page.
