At the moment there, is no such thing as a liberal democracy. To me this is the most important issue of the current time, the attempted coups around the world in the name of a virus. I too was caught up in the gender wars but they're a distraction right now, when lives are actually at stake and are being lost. I've seen a lot of gender warriors on the right side of the virus tyranny argument but most of us are gender critical. Nevertheless I am unwilling to see divisions right now, we need everyone on board.
Hi Viviane, thanks. No I haven't. I am unlikely to read academic feminism, I really have lost interest in it, to be honest. For me liberal democracy is the mechanism by which the working class has been able to achieve a great deal of freedom and liberty. I don't look at it as an ideal to be achieved, just a set of imperfect mechanisms and principles that we clumsily stubble about to try to stop us from trying to kill each other.
sure I'll have a listen. I'm always happy to listen to women talk about feminism, particularly where there are practical applications for ordinary women. But I'm pretty sure I'll never read an academic feminist book again in my life. I just don't have any interest anymore. If I have to inform work I will try, but it's like pulling teeth for me now. I don't even use patriarchy much anymore as a concept except for women who live in patriarchal societies, like in the middle east etc.

My view - there is not a hope of bringing sense to the gender debate unless the war against medical tyranny is won.
Working class I am, still am. And I could tell you a thing or two about blacklists.
