Publisher's summary

As seen on Tucker Carlson Tonight!

The so-called “transgender” agenda is a misogynistic assault on the rights, privacy, and safety of women and girls—and is being fueled by a massive, vicious, and well-funded industry.

Most Americans do not understand the real threat that the “transgender” agenda, or the so-called “gender identity” movement, poses to all of us—especially women and girls—nor do they understand the extent to which it is taking over US law and civil society. The simple truth is that “gender identity” functions to abolish sex, and all of our civic institutions—government, media, academia, and business—have been completely captured by it. We have been told that “transgender” is a word to describe a marginalized group of people who are in need of civil rights protection; it is not. Instead, it is an incoherent word that is being used to advance a much broader agenda. There are many people—including people on the political left—who understand the threat that enshrining “gender identity” in law and society poses, but they are silenced when they try to speak out. This book shines a light on the truth about “gender identity,” the “transgender” agenda, the very real threats that they pose to all of society—specifically to the rights, privacy, and safety of women and girls—and what the global Women’s Human Rights Campaign is doing to fight back.

This is an urgently necessary book.

In this well-researched and clearly-reasoned book, the author lays out exactly what dangers we are all in from the “trans” agenda— and it is worse than you thought. This book should be required reading, especially for women, girls as well as all parents. If you think you won’t be profoundly affected by the “trans” agenda, you already are affected, it’s worse than you thought, and it’s about to get much worse. Be afraid, be very afraid. Then get angry and buy this book! This is a book to be shared with friends and family, and one that will arm us with enough facts to start making noise and taking action!

Gender ideology intrusion in law.

this is a must read book to understand the political implications of gender ideology. my only criticism is that I feel parts of the discussion about objectification of women were a little bit exaggerated. Very different than other gender ideology critical books like Debrah Soh and Abigail Shrier.

Every woman (Adult Human Female) MUST read!!

Kara Dansky makes a great explanation of how the transgender movement is the newest form of suppressing of women. Politically, Ms. Dansky and I may not totally agree; she presents an incredible argument and discussion of how the trans movement is hurting women and girls

Outstanding read

Thought provoking. There is much more to the trans movement than accepting one’s wish to be something they cannot be. Thinking that tolerance is harmless is incorrect.

hero exposing the truth

this is the 4th book I read in the past 12-14 months on gender identity ideology & how it harms the rights of women and girls as well as LGB rights. I wish everyone on the left would read this book as well as similar books by Kathleen Stock and Helen Joyce, although I know most won't. It's a very serious problem in public policy and law. Dansky writes movingly about what it is like to be a lifelong Democrat, as she is and I am, and the betrayal that politicians are engaged in by prioritizing gender identity over sex based rights. This is an emergency for women and girl's rights, gay rights, and science based public policy and law.

ROGD mom here! Very thankful for all the excellent books coming out on this subject. I have been immersed in this world for 4 years and people are finally waking up. We need to protect women and girls! It’s a scary time

Read and share and talk about it!!!!

I have read everything I could find on the Gender Idiology movement to try to understand why corporations seem so willing, insistent even, that everyone abide by it, and this is the clearest, shortest, most action-oriented one I found. A must read and share.

A must read for anyone concerned about women and girls.

And absolutely critical book in a time when women’s rights and women’s and girls safety is being set back decades. They must read for anyone who’s interested in the lives of women and girls.

This is a very important book

Gender ideology has become my obsession since the day my daughter announced her own capture. When it happens, life becomes a hall of mirrors in which you’re frantically seeking daylight. All of the recent gender-critical books have delivered some of it, but Kara Dansky argues the case using nothing but devastatingly objective facts. Clear, direct and unemotional, she doesn’t reach for the crutches — virtue signals, hyperbole, and righteous snark — that marked the early entries. My top three recommendations now include this book, Helen Joyce’s “Trans,” and “Galileo’s Middle Finger.” Serious works by serious women (yes, I said women!) who will be celebrated for their courageous sanity when the intellectual fog finally clears.

The left marginalizing women

This book illustrates that the societal norms and legal instruments giving "rights" to Transgender women are obliterate the long standing protections of biological women, both straight and lesbian. The book implies that right now, mostly lesbians are keeping to their own to fight this. And that for the most part, straight, cis gendered women don't even get to think about fighting this. I hope that straight and lesbian women can unite with men to oppose this, because it is, and should be, a fight for all of us. In the mean time, let's hope that TERF becomes synonymous with TUFF.
