Reassessing Gender Roles

Most people are not insane enough to refer to themselves as the opposite gender, but so many of us still act transgender. On today’s special evergreen episode, I share and expound upon Joy Pullmann’s excellent essay “How Feminism Makes Everyone Transgender.” She argues that conservatives have misdiagnosed our societal ills as stemming from too much femininity injected into government by liberal females. But, in fact, those women are extremely masculine and dysregulated. It’s a lack of femininity among a generation of women that is driving them to project their insecurities on society. I make the case that the lack of femininity among women is an even bigger problem than a lack of masculinity among men, and it’s a problem even on the Right. Too many on the Right are harnessing feminism to supposedly fight transgenderism, when feminism is what caused transgenderism and is even more destructive to society.
