The Men Struggle To Distinguish Porn Scripts From Real Sexual Assault Situations. One Observes, That

“The men struggle to distinguish porn scripts from real sexual assault situations. One observes, ”That feels like a sexual assault.” Another speculates that the situation before him is a #MeToo story. At the conclusion of the video, it is revealed that all of the scenarios were taken from pornography.”

Now we’re connecting some dots.

I have been looking for this screenshot bc every time I think about how many liberal feminists used language like this all the time 5-10 years ago, I wonder how the same group of supposed feminists can now so heavily promote the inclusion of transwomen in government (and everything else) and not understand the problem.

You can literally reword the above statement as: if you are not a biological female, which is a unique experience, then you should not be representing women in government and you certainly should not be making laws about that solely affect a group that you are not a part of, and never will be a part of.

If the US military wants so bad to liberate a desert region from a repressive religious organization, Utah is right there.

Let's break the bookosphere for Kathleen Stock 📚

Gender-critical lesbian philosophy professor Kathleen Stock resigned from her Sussex University post a few days ago after a concerted harassment campaign from trans activists.

This whole escapade has come across as an attack on free, considered speech, and an attack on critically-thinking women. In general protest, I'd like to propose a 📚 mass book club event based around her latest release, Material Girls: Why Reality Matters for Feminism.

From the blurb:

'Material Girls is a timely and trenchant critique of the influential theory that we all have an inner feeling known as a gender identity, and that this feeling is more socially significant than our biological sex. Professor Kathleen Stock surveys the philosophical ideas that led to this point, and closely interrogates each one, from De Beauvoir's statement that, 'One is not born, but rather becomes a woman' (an assertion she contends has been misinterpreted and repurposed), to Judith Butler's claim that language creates biological reality, rather than describing it. She looks at biological sex in a range of important contexts, including women-only spaces and resources, healthcare, epidemiology, political organization and data collection.'

As part of this mass-reading:

What?

We all read the book

We post quotes, commentary, expand on ideas, put it in the context of other reading, do extra research and engage in relevant discussion (positive or negative) on Tumblr as we go, using the tag #Stockathon (please let me know if you have any better ideas!) to collate all our posts. (Can also bring to twitter, FB groups, any other radfem social media you're on, make private subreddits etc)

Those of us who are interested can also expand to read/discuss her previous academic publications

When?

November 2021, but generally starting whenever the first person starts reading the book and finishing whenever the last person stops! This will be a slow-moving long-haul event. Some may choose to liveblog erratically, some may write long and considered posts months afterwards. There will ideally always be someone to engage with as long as our tagged posts stay up (that's why Tumblr is the ideal platform for this - it's slow-moving, is host to all kinds of people, and has the capacity to host all kinds of written content).

Why?

To promote discussion of relevant literature within the radblr sphere (community-building, critical thought, well-read women are dangerous creatures etc)

In protest of the current Anglosphere campus culture in which gender-critical thinkers are routinely no-platformed and harassed into submission

To protest the notion that students must be protected from certain 'harmful' ideas (radblr skews young, many of us are in higher ed - let's read what they don't want us to read)

If you have the resources to do so, you can buy the book on Amazon (I lament the moral implications but couldn't find it elsewhere - removed from Waterstones website, not yet out in paperback, although you might have more luck on ebay). If you don't have the resources to buy the book, but still have a pet parrot and own an eye patch, you might like this link (as the aim is to get as many people reading as possible).
