This speaks to the issue of why the language we use matters. The term "transwoman" implies such a unicorn exists: a man who became a woman. I believe it is important to use descriptive terms: man with a gender identity, woman with a gender identity. Simply put, there exists a need to position the counter agruement in a biological reality matrix within which man and woman are meaningful constructs.
I hope this talk reaches a wider audience!
Wonderful Heather! And yes Wpath must be shut down. It is perfectly thinkable and will happen. Thank you so much for your research. Xxx
Brava, philosophy demands that we make up our own minds, not that we seek authoritative opinions on TH-cam, or anywhere else. Very well put.
Unlike most people, I've actually read Foucault (Madness and Civilization, The Birth of the Clinic, some volumes of History of Sexuality, Discipline and Punish, I Pierre Riviera, lots of commentary.) I don't think his work is anything like as original or as important as Brunskell-Evans does, but I'll concede that it does have some heuristic power and it works in this context, ie, discussing the construction of categories of transgenderism. I think the problem with Foucault is that his critique of the social order is a deliberate attempt to destroy the traditional ties and social mores that have historically bound us together. Remember, the power that Foucault was seeking to speak truth to was a very different system of power to the elite that holds power today. If anything, the modern Tavistock is very much a Foucauldian construction.
I agree though, that there's real value in the tools that Foucault has bequeathed us.
That's similar to what I've thought of him as well, although I'm not that very much versed in his work (other than just snippets you learn when you do a degree in humanities). That some of his theories and concepts are quite useful to navigate and understand our current times and social and cultural processes, however, that he also didn't like traditional values and had a clear and unreasonable bias against them (unreasonable because they didn't fit into his views, wants, and lifestyle, instead of having had countered them basen on reasonable arguments... there was clear bias and misrepresentation of the history when it came to traditional values, the Church, etc.).
James Lindsay did a a rebuttal video to the likes of Brunskell-Evans

Thank you for this perspective.
Thank you for this video!
Fantastic lecture. Wow!
This is a very good talk! I wish more people would listen.
Very informative indeed. Great to hear Foucault explained and ethics put to the forefront. Can it be said that Gillian Butler is misrepresenting Foucault?
It's a justification for p edofillia
(c5.10) Reification of the social construct of gender! Get in!!! 👍🏽❤
Spot bloody on
Foucault isn't exactly a saint. Alfred Kinsey and John Money are also to blame for the situation we are in today.
I don't know how you can blame John Money. He, incorrectly, believed that gender identity was flexible and could be formed by socialization. Gender ideology folks believe that these people are 'born this way.' That they have some sort of aberration in their brains such that they were 'born into the wrong body.' John Money would have never said anything like that. Also, I'm not sure how Alfred Kinsey has any role here. He just described what he found in his interviews.
Excellent. Thank you!
Wpath, Epath, psychopath, sociopath
By rejecting her daughter's 'transitioning' social or otherwise, the mother IS supporting her daughter. In a few years, when her daughter has grown out of this utter brainwashing, she will be eternally grateful her mother shut the cult behaviour down.
I'd love to her on Jordan Peterson. I'm pretty sure he'd be as impressed by her arguments as I am.
Why does she pronounce medicine as if it were a two-syllable word?
Who cares.
I don't know why it bothers me, but I do expect smart people to pronounce words correctly.@@treesart6914
I don't think 'normatize' is a word.
Could this top-down (revolution? phenomenon?) trend be a consequence of career-focused academics/ intellectuals/artists/creatives (etc, etc) just being bad parents? Especially in the absence of an extended family to ground parents and children into a broader reality?
phenomena are real; diagnoses are culturally situated
Not exactly connvinced of her defence of Foucault. But her arguments are 100% intellectual and theoretical... and I'm not an intellectual.
Wasnt too convinced.
Foucault was a dirtbag and his theory very much disregards the value/merit of truth. As i understand it.
But its easy to see how there is some good in the idea, but it isnt ground breaking.
The combination with marxian thought and ferierian ideas makes for an easy way out to those who want to misuse/dishonestly use those philosphies to their ends.
James Lindsay puts your case in a video, effectively rebutting the argument by H B-R.

Good content but presentation is sorely lacking.
My dear Ms Brunskell Evans, have you considered getting a tablet or a laptop and maybe just standing at the podium? I know it's 2023 and a strange new world, but, please, join us.
