    Bump - I just wanted to share this book that I read recently by Mary Beard Women & Power - Profile Books https://theconversation.com/mary-beard-and-the-long-tradition-of-women-being-told-to-shut-up-94285

    ...and at worst outright bigots or even organised fascists). I see it all the time both irl and on line. They were galvanised in opposition to feminism some years back and then (in the US in particular), they were galvanised by the Black Lives Matter protests. They've moved on to trans people...

    Maya Forstater Appeal case

    ...group of mostly male posters made the environment here so vile you drive women, cis and trans, away. You think that’s a great victory for feminism? I suspect it this kind of dishonesty that means women are much more likely to reject your arguments than men, and much more likely to support...

    ...anti-wokeness, ingrained and perhaps unacknowledged traditional views about gender and more legitimate debates (on the left and within feminism at least) such as concerns about the rise of identity politics and conflicts over whether the upcoming generation are attacking or strengthening the...

    ...to be men - from being forced to use men's toilets (unless and until toilets are gender neutral). I get how many women don't consider that risk anything to do with for feminism (any more than any of the myriad risks some men pose to other vulnerable males), but it is not just a matter of...

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    Why does that impact feminism? If trans women are or are not women does that negate female oppression?

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    I try and listen to a lot of viewpoints, but I don't agree with them all. In my part of the world views akin to gender critical thought are common amongst left wing women, often expressed quite vociferously. I listen to them as well.

    I'm 15 minutes in and it's about a writer's PhD on anti-feminism. So far it's drawing distinctions between various bits of this movement, but it's dragging a bit. The writer's a bit hesitant in her delivery and the hosts haven't done a good job of coaxing an overview from her. Not great as a...

    Identity Politics: the impasse, the debate, the thread.

    Actually, the claim of which I am thinking was made before the H Blocks came into being.

    Drag Queen Story Times picketed by protestors who claim that it grooms children and promotes paedophilia

    Well, by that token you were indeed blase in your post about a man dressing in exaggerated markers of a type of feminity.

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    ...a bit daft as a result of being tripped up while being badgered about a subject he doesn't know that much about than I do with the obsessive weirdos doing the badgering. Or do you think Nick Ferrari was so keen to bring the subject up because of his long-standing commitment to radical feminism?

    Feminism and violence again women

    The use of academic terms excludes as much as it includes, and it is based upon a hierarchy of authority. For me, men being genuinely respectful of women on this thread is to let women's voices be heard rather than imposing ours and if that means men taking a step back and terms being used in a...
