I need to be immersed in feminism, because feminism is anti-fascism. Both sides of this debate represent from my perspective different faces of feminism. I need to be acquainted with both, and both are useful for my work, but deciding between them is not my primary issue.

I have been on both sides of the debate, and therefore think it's complex.
I don't disagree the debate is complex. But I didn't like the bad faith thing, because a lot of the women on the gender critical side of thing are working-class British women, not privileged, not working in academia, and they're at the sharp end, and arguing in good faith.

I hope you have a good rest of your night. Good luck with the chapter!

I was referring specifically to a point in the second-order debate where one side complains about being called "transphobic" while calling the other side "misogynistic". I would prefer neither side did this. But your heat of the moment point was fair.

Okay, fair enough. I apologize for the earlier snark. Hope you have a good rest of the evening.

Likewise!

I like that a lot of women outside of academia have done the work and have entered the debate. It has been an enfranchising debate. My reading list has certainly diversified. Coming from ancient philosophy and science, a lot of this is new to me. But I feel that I can contribute
