What you'll learn
Neuroscientist and sexpert Debra Soh is hardly a darling of the right, but here she delivers a matter-of-fact critique of the new gender orthodoxies guiding gender-neutral parenting, dating norms, women’s empowerment strategies, and public policy. Contesting assumptions like “Biological sex is a spectrum,” “Gender is a social construct,” and “Women and men are the same,” Soh comes after some of the central sacred tenets of gender studies and activists.
