We discuss what's currently happening with Jesse Singal and why we think it matters.

In this episode, we follow up last week's chat about logical fallacies with a conversation about how we've questioned our own assumptions and ideologies and what we've learned from it.
Aja sits down with me to chat about some recent events in the gender critical world, why she speaks out on this topic, the nature of truth-telling, and whether a cultural shift may be approaching.
We also talk about her first time hearing the word TERF—when lesbian group Get The L Out protested London pride in 2018. After witnessing the event, she began to do some research, and learned that gender identity ideology was demanding that lesbians view transwomen as women. She also tells her firsthand story of a notorious incident, a women's Labour party meeting near Grenfell Tower where transgender activists in masks set off smoke bombs and harassed the women attending the meeting.
There is currently a massive misunderstanding in society. For some people, I think this misunderstanding is intentional. It serves a very clear purpose. For others, it is a pure and simple misunderstanding. I think the only way to move forward is communication, honesty and compassion. The misunderstanding regards female rights and the transgender community.
I want to give you a little bit of a history of what I do and why:
I am the founder and CEO of Giggle, a social networking & social media app for females.
Lauren Adams, Legal Counsel for the Women's Liberation Front (WoLF), joins us to discuss the Equality Act. We discuss the language used in the bill, how it will affect women if it passes, and why Lauren sees it as a men's rights bill.
Crack. The sound of the egg hitting Marguerite Stern in the face. The sound of women’s patience reaching its breaking point around the world.
Because the truth is, she took that egg to the face for all of us. For the victims of femicide, whom she was demonstrating for that day, but also for every woman who has been told to shut up by the trans activists who tell us we are not allowed to say what a woman is.
Marguerite is a full time French activist. She founded a collage campaign to raise awareness and speak out against femicide. She also refuses to lie about what a woman is. She knows a woman is an adult human female, she knows that the reason some people are victims of femicide is because they were born with a female body. She knows and says out loud that woman is not a feeling, not an identity that a man can don at his will. For this crime, she has been hounded, pushed out of her living quarters, forced out of work, and been physically attacked.
Arty Morty sits down with Sasha for an in depth conversation about what made him start to question gender identity ideology, the realizations that come with being outside the popular opinion of the cultural mainstream, the problems plaguing worthwhile social justice movements today, and so much more.
In this episode we broke out our acting chops... we acted out two sample conversations between a gender critical woman and a gender ideology supporter. Both conversations cover the same topics, but a simple switch in argument technique on the part of the GC speaker changes the entire outcome and the tone of the exchange.
MK Fain, the Communications Fellow at the Women's Liberation Front, answers questions about the Equality Act: what it means for women's and LGBT rights, and the poison pill nature of the gender identity wording in the bill.
