Who’s Afraid of Gender Ideology?

Judith Butler could be considered the godmother of transgenderism. Her 1990 book Gender Trouble advocated a socially constructed “performative” view of gender. (Butler claims to be “non-binary” and uses “they/them” pronouns.) Her latest book is her response to conservatives’ victories against the transgender movement in “red states” like Florida and Texas. Who’s Afraid of Gender? is a polemic against the anti–gender ideology movement on the right.
