VIDEO: Gender-Critical Feminism—And Academic Witch Hunts

National Association of Scholars

Kathleen Stock is a British philosopher who has been a lightning rod in the ongoing transgender controversies. In her book, Material Girls: Why Reality Matters for Feminism, she dives deeply into the confusion that surrounds sex, gender, gender identity, and transgenderism. She argues that transgenderism has allowed biological men to intrude on hard-won advancement for interests of women—which she has described as a "land grab"—to the ultimate detriment of women and girls. For this, she has endured a campaign of cancellation that she describes as "medieval."
