I first encountered Kajsa Ekis Ekman almost a decade ago, after she became known for her expertise on and analysis of prostitution and the Nordic model of law, implemented in Sweden back in 2009, which had a notable impact on curbing trafficking and the purchase of sex. She published Being and Being Bought: Prostitution, Surrogacy, and the Split Self in 2013 and has worked as a prominent and respected journalist in Sweden for many years. Activists pulled one line out of her book, and labelled her “transphobic,” targeting her with a cancellation campaign. Then, in 2022, Kajsa published The Mea ..read more

Helen Joyce is a journalist, editor, and the author of Trans: When ideology meets reality. She is also a founder of Sex Matters, a campaign group advocating for clarity about the two sexes — male and female — in law and in life. In this episode, I spoke with Helen about new political developments in the UK around gender identity legislation and women’s sex-based rights, why women’s washrooms matter, the reality of forcing female swimmers to change with male athletes, and her spat with Matt Walsh.

The trans movement is a lie

I spoke at Let Women Speak Austin, organized by Michelle Evans, on Saturday, August 12, 2023. Our mics and megaphone were drowned out by trans activist chants, including “Trans rights our human rights” and “TERFs go home” throughout, but the event was well attended I am ever grateful for all the work Michelle did to organize and fundraise to ensure this event went on, despite predictable attempts to shut us down, as well as to all the women — many of whom traveled from out of state — who attended and spoke. As women have been bullied, censored, silenced, and threatened in order to keep them o ..read more

Jennifer Bilek is a writer, a journalist, and an artist. As many of us struggled to understand the seemingly sudden onset of gender identity ideology and wonder how it took hold of institutions so quickly, Jennifer dug in and found the truth: billionaires, biotech, and transhumanists. In this episode, I speak with Jennifer about her research and what she found about the roots of the transgender movement after “following the money.” Find more of Jennifer’s work at the 11th Hour blog or on Substack.

Yolanda Díaz, leader of leftist party, Sumar (Image: Twitter/https://twitter.com/sumar/status/1682477508627759105) Many feminists in Spain looked at the new left coalition government formed in 2019 between the Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party and the hard left Unidas Podemos party with some skepticism after it declared itself “feminist,” but nothing could have prepared them for what lay ahead. In February 2023, the “most feminist government” in the history of Spain, according to President Pedro Sánchez, passed what is commonly referred to as the ‘’Trans Law,’’ despite feminist push back.

Transgenderism doesn’t disrupt the ‘gender binary’, it reinforces the most misogynist stereotypes
Feminist Current
by Meghan Murphy
9M ago
A common claim from defenders of gender identity ideology is that transgenderism subverts “gender binaries,” freeing individuals from rigid ideas about what it means to be a man and what it means to be a woman. By contrast, those of us labeled “TERFs,” on account of our refusal to abandon women’s sex-based rights and protections to male fetishists and who understand that “woman” means “adult human female” are often accused of upholding the “gender binary,” or even, as a journalist named Emma Vigeland tweeted today, “upholding the patriarchy.” Vigeland, who is co-host of what I understand to b ..read more
