Episode Synopsis

HI THERE, QUILLETTE READERS! Holly seems to have used my video (without my permission) to explain the Motte-and-Bailey fallacy, in an article defending some half-baked TERF ideology. I invite you to think critically about why it’s so important for TERFs that the legal protections afforded to women are never extended to trans women, why TERFs (at best) insist on separate-but-equal treatment, and why it’s so important for them to deny a tiny minority of people the right to live as they choose.
