Rebecca Tuvel has to retain her job in academia. She’s not well known enough to be able to destroy her academic career by speaking the truth, like Kathleen Stock was able to.
"What is it about the maleness that makes males a greater risk?" Is Tuvel serious? What matters is that, for whatever reason, they ARE a greater risk, as a group, as clearly shown by sexual assault & other violent crime statistics, which we ignore at our peril. Specifically, the peril of vulnerable women & girls when forced to share close quarters with them. This is what we need to be focusing and acting on, to preserve single sex spaces. The academic questions about the "why?" of male violence are very secondary & we don't need to find an answer before we protect women & girls from male predators enabled by gender self-ID.
Tuvel speaks like a white privileged academic. How she figures men who think they are women don't pose a threat to actual women is beyond me. She's naive at best, ignorant at worst.
It's as though she has just arrived on the planet and knows nothing about the species living on it. Men are bigger, stronger, and anatomically and hormonally different, which makes them more likely to engage in sexual predation. How a grown woman could be unaware of this is beyond me.
Kathleen has the patience of a saint! She is our international lesbian heroine! Along with Julie Bindel, Kathleen has inspired lesbians like me all over the world to stand up to the violation of women’s, children’s, and gay people’s rights!
By saying the same things us straight men have been saying for years but would called slurs for. How the times have changed. People have joked about things like men being raped in gaol for years now it’s different if men are in women’s prisons?! I don’t think they should be allowed in women’s prisons. Just a double standard.
I totally agree about Bindel and Stock - both are wonderful women. That said, for me it was Kelly Jay Keen (KJK) who gave me the courage to finally speak the truth and aloud.

Nobody can cut through the gender insanity BS like KJK can and I admire her for this not to mention her ability to consistently hold the line when it comes to defending not just women's rights which includes Lesbians but also children's rights and welfare and the truth itself.

Hello Rebecca. You were very civil during discussion. Thank you for that. When you said that gender ideology hasn't hurt anyone, I was wondering if you were just taking an opposing stance for discussion. . Parents have had their children taken away for not affirming pronouns, detransitioners are being silenced, and people are fired from their jobs for maintaining that there are only two sexes. It's not complicated. Male and female are fact regardless and independent of human social constructs.
I sort of understand Rebecca's point, if she'd said about transwomen who have had surgery instead of testosterone levels it would have made more sense to me. But Kathleen Stock is right, we can't rearrange society around these things, the obvious division has to be between the sexes.
She participated in an event with someone whom she disagrees with, respectfully pushed back when she thought it was appropriate to, and emphasized at many points the common ground she shares with her co-panelist... Did we watch the same video?
This purity spiral idea that everyone has to completely agree on every single point is why our entire world is so toxic right now. I, for one, appreciated that they both respectfully spoke to eachother, agreed on some things, disagreed on other things, and neither called for the other to be not allowed to speak. I wish people in the comment sections of social media could behave the same.
So hard to understand why language and definitions have been so easily and valiantly given away. They were never prizes that would, will benefit females, any female, person, no matter position. This is 2024.

What is it about maleness that's the problem? - 1) More aggression, partly, but not only, due to much higher levels of testosterone. 2) Much greater strength and usually greater experience in exerting in that strength. 3) The sexual element, most men are attracted to most women. Of course, not all men are violent or predatory. The majority would not misuse their strength. But the minority is big enough for it to be a problem for women. And surely this is more of a problem with men who are imprisoned for violent crime?? Really, it's not rocket science. A child of five can understand it!
And elsewhere! Like the women who have been injured competing in sports against men! I hate that she is basically willing to experiment with real women's safety & bodies while she gets to perform her thought experiments from a comfortable & safe place. THAT'S ACTUAL privilege!
Rebecca, go camping in a remote area with an entire group of men who say they're women & tell me you felt no fear that entire time. That fear women feel is the result of evolutionary biology based on a million years of men being stronger, faster, larger, & having other physical advantages over us. It's there to keep us safe. You're telling women to ignore that fear, ignore the evidence of their own eyes, ignore their intuition that something isn't right, ignore the experiences of women around the world & throughout history in deference to men. That's infuriating!
That question from the stammering and probably very young audience member, “Why did you self-ID a lesbian?”-and Rebecca’s nonsensical follow-up-was so irritatingly sophomoric. Sex is reality; there is no question about one’s maleness or femaleness. Sexual orientation is also something that isn’t just a vague “feeling”-it’s a biological response to erotic stimuli, it really can’t be faked, at its most basic level. No male person is ever a “lesbian”. It’s a ridiculous proposition. Kathleen’s response is spot-on, as was her point about the use of the word ‘valid’.
From studies, male violence does not decrease upon CSH, not at all. Female violence and offending patterns do increase to close level, for females on testosterone.
@marysalluce9685 cross-sex hormones. It's the correct term rather than the queer preferred hormone replacement therapy ( HRT) all trans people aren't replacing any hormones they produce, they block the hormones they produce and take synthetic hormones of the opposite sex.
I don't understand the criticism of Tuvel in these comments. She's great, she was vilified as a very young assistant professor, and survived. She's younger and maybe not at tough as Stock, but then who is? Both philosophers are speaking the important truth. We should be grateful to them.
How do you define 'legitimate'? Given how outmatched intellectually Tuvel is, and how determined she is to ignore reality, there is no way that she could win a debate against Stock. Because their ideas are so crazy, there are only 2 ways in which trans ideologues can approach debate: either they deny reality, or they acknowledge reality and say we should ignore it.
Thank you for the wonderful discussion and the opportunity to hear educated people discuss a topic that is so fascinating, but that we often don’t get to discuss because it’s so polarizing. I appreciate that both participants were respectful and allowed the other to speak without demanding purity.
Rebecca's attempted analogy to black male prisoners is so off the wall. It's not greater criminality, but racialized prosecution, conviction and sentencing, most easily demonstrated by the handling of drug cases. She should know this.
Rachel suffers from toxic compassion on the trans issue and safeguarding women’s spaces. Which makes her view on being cancelled somewhat hypocritical.
I'd really like to hear the whole discussion, but unfortunately, the microphone for Doctor Stock is about 1/3 the level of the other panelists, so she can barely be heard, and the others are inadvertently drowning her out. If you can possibly correct the audio and re-upload it, thanks in advance.
At my school, in my film studies, they introduced queer theory to me and we watched queer films including Soldiers Girl which was interpreted by the professor as violence due to a man dating a trans woman, NOT, as I think it was, a man being killed due to being perceived as gay.
Ms Tuvel decided to claim that since Black inmates are overrepresented in prisons, a Black inmate is more dangerous than an inmate of any other race convicted of the same crime, and thus (get this causality!) sex 'inclusion' in women's prisons isn't as dangerous. As if one male murderer is more dangerous than another male murderer just by virtue of their skin color. They are both murderers jailed for murder! I can't believe someone employed as a college professor would take such an obviously nonsensical position.
You misunderstood Tuvel's example. The example is meant to challenge the principle Stock is (or seems to be) relying on, which is something like "If members of two groups A and B are housed in the same prison, and members of group A are on average more violent than members of group B, then members of A and B ought to be segregated in that prison (or have completely different prisons)." Stock employs this principle to derive the conclusion that trans women and natal women ought to be segregated in prisons (or have entirely different prisons). Tuvel points out (correctly) that, if Stock is indeed relying on that principle, it would equally justify segregating black and white men in prison (or having separate prisons) since violent crime rates among black men (in the U.S.) are significantly higher than violent crime rates among white men (in the U.S.). But it's silly to suggest that black and white men ought to be segregated in prisons. So, the principle Stock is (or seems to be) relying on is silly. Now, Stock can either argue that she's not relying on that principle or argue that she is but there's a relevant difference between the two cases so the principle doesn't really have the absurd consequences Tuvel suggests. In any case, the philosophical move Tuvel is making is totally standard, and you completely missed it. No doubt this explanation, too, will fly completely over your head, but I'm giving it for the benefit of sharper people scrolling through the comments, not you.
@@esizzle2005 I suspect the black v white male offending difference is considerably less than offending differences between trans identified men v women. As Kathleen Stock pointed out in her 2019 submission to UK Parliament, 60% of UK ‘Trans women’ prisoners are sex offenders Including in 36 x rape; 10 x attempted rape. Since then we’ve learned 50% of US Federal ‘Trans women’ prisoners are sex offenders, and 50% of Canadian ‘Trans women’ prisoners are sex offenders. For male Prisoners generally the percentage is about 18% and women 3% . The risk for women from trans identifying men is greater than the risk for white men from black.
@@esizzle2005 Let's see how far your snide patronizing gets you. If the race analogy held any water and Stock is wrong, Tuvel should be in favor of the reverse of her example - if we don't lock up people by race we shouldn't lock them up by sex or gender either - and gender ID proponents should not want segregated prisons either. But neither Tuvel nor the gender lDs do so which is a huge tell. It's fundamentally silly to suggest race-based segregation in prisons, especially for the 'reason' Tuvel offers (the erroneous equating of race and sex vis-a-vis crime, and the misuse of the notion of statistical rates). It's silly because: 1) The rate of criminality does not mean one group is more violent than the other, it means one group may offend more times than the other. 2) The prison population is like a self-selected sample- they are all convicted criminals, no matter the race, while crime rate stats are on the basis of the whole population including non-offenders. 3) Prisoners are locked up for specific offenses, and along with sex segregation there IS severity of crime segregation (e.g. violent offenders; minimum, medium and max security prisons, etc.). It is a causal error to extrapolate from a statistical rate of criminality that a black male inmate locked *in max security* is much more violent and dangerous for his fellow inmates than any of the non-black inmates there. They are in max security for one reason only - they are all violent dangerous criminals! 4) However, there is consistent evidence that male crime patterns and associated crime and incarceration rates are substantially higher and qualitatively different than the respective female rates. They don't change just because you start playing language gender games. 5) The 'gender self-ID' (sometimes miraculously emerging right at trial!) of a male criminal, especially if convicted of violent crimes, and especially if convicted of violent crimes against women, should have no consequence for the sex segregation rule in prisons. Interestingly, we hear no demands from transmen to be put in male prisons due to their self-ID, wonder why that is - oh wait, who's more likely to be subject of a crime in prison: a male 'woman' in women's prison or a female 'man' in men's prison? Where prisons and I would add sports are concerned, gender self-ID seems to work in mysteriously lopsided ways to the exclusive benefit of transwomen aka males.
@@esizzle2005 "Stock employs this principle to derive the conclusion that trans women and natal women ought to be segregated in prisons" No she does not. She says that men, so called "transwomen" are men, and women ought to be segregated in prisons...something that was not controversial until queer theorists made you believe that subjective self-identifications are more importand than the very reason why women were put in seperate prisons in the first place.
Perhaps Tuvel's article should never have been published just for being too daft, but of course what happened around it was not right regardless. I doubt she learned anything from it though, judging by this conversation.
She seems like an idiot. She doesn't understand the issue at all. Just for starters, anyone talking about "transwomen" - a deeply offensive phrase I really try to avoid - is granting the false premise that there is some type of woman who is male.
God love you, Rebecca, because I know you mean well, but you remind me of the guy in our golf foursome who always gives pointers or tips on what the other 3 are “doing wrong” in their golf swing, or has marginal impulse control and has to blurt out after every strike of the ball “Good shot!” Also, what’s funny in this p-cast is watching Stock’s droll and mildly exasperated expression with many of the comments from Rebecca. Rebecca, academic teaching is meant for people like you. Do not lose that position ever, because you’ll be eaten alive outside the bubble. The name we have for the guy in our foursome that we use when he’s out of earshot is the one I have for you: Good Shot. I know this sounds cruel, but it’s given by me ”humbly and with charity.” (Your words)
This doesn't sound cruel - it *is* cruel. And you mentioned no substantive disagreement you have with Dr. Tuvel in this comment - just ad hominem attacks against a clearly intellectually curious woman. This comment gives us no reason to think poorly of Dr. Tuvel, and gives us every reason to think poorly of you
@@connorkianpour1077 Lighten up a little, Connor! I have to confess to a HUGE degree of admiration for K Stock, and generally agree with her ideas on this subj. and am likely a bit biased, but I tried to be objective... I found it fascinating to watch the discussion a SECOND time - for the SOLE purpose of watching R Tuvel's body language and facial expressions throughout. Her obvious and constant self-conscious behaviors betray her lack of confidence, either in herself or her ideas or BOTH. I don't know that I've EVER seen such a telling display, really. Coy, funny faces, eye rolls and a peeking side-eye, hair twirling...juxtaposed against Stock's easy, self-assured demeanor, the contrast was stunning. I wound up feeling bad for her, she was so profoundly outmatched.
She is an idiot. She's so so afraid of being seen as not nice, that she makes an utter fool of herself, like so many women are doing. The trans narrative is a threat - that's true - so you have to have self-respect and commitment to honesty to not cow to it, but plenty of people are able to do that. I have no respect for those like Tuvel who fail to even recognize the threat and that they are being threatened, and therefore their job is to not cow. That's all it is, is a threat to get us to roll over. Our job is to not roll over.
@@connorkianpour1077Connor, the dude you’re responding to isn’t *debating* Rebecca, so invoking the term ‘ad hominem’ is pointless. He’s just pointing out what is obvious to many of us.
"Biolphobia": an irrational aversion to biological reality (as a concept), and/or to those for whom biological reality is important. Those for whom biological reality is important, can find biolphobic ideas troubling, distressing, or offensive. Many adherents of the new gender ideology are biolphobic. But by no means are all trans people biolphobic. Gender dysphoria and biolphobia are very different concepts. Gender dysphoria is when you feel very uncomfortable about your own body and if the condition persists you may feel better presenting as the opposite gender, even living that way full time. Society had over the last few decades started to become far more accepting of people like this. But that progress has been hampered more recently by confusion with a new idea far less worthy: Biolphobia. Biolphobes reject the very concept that everyone's body is either male or female, and/or that that is important in some situations.
I admire Kathleen Stock but just could not bear to listen to the other young woman speaking as the vocal fry was absolutely unbearable. As well as the unecessary question mark at the end of each sentence.
Just watched a great video this week analysing the development of female vocal fry in the media, then swiffly all proffessional arenas, that particularly affects American women. Truly a horrible affliction
You can identify as different sex, and probably soon a different species, but never race or ethnicity. Who gets to decide these thing? TikTok? I don't get the logic.
Complete change of topic mid run by the mod. Broke the flow of thought and exchange, tho perhaps needed as RT adds not much content to the conversation.
Regarding the American woman theoretical counter argument of controlling testosterone in trans women would be a solution? Testosterone has nothing to do with violent crime as there are many examples of dangerous females that void this reasoning.
Testosterone may well have something to do with violent crime and there would need to be a lot more violent women to prove this isn't so. In fact many think there is a link. The problem is that it isn't the only or even primary factor and that reducing it doesn't have any guarantee of preventing violence or even significantly reducing it.
@@ribbonsofnight Fair point I overreached, yes testosterone is a factor in the level of violence and the level of violence corresponds to more men being in prison, but most men [alpha] who have high testosterone levels do not commit violent crime? Psychotic Disorders, personal trauma and other uncontrolled chemical imbalances appear more evident.
@@ribbonsofnight Not to mention females are not in a body that can do as much damage as a male body can inflict, in terms of violence against women and kids and men. Even if she is dosed up on T. The "trans men" in sports situation shows us that disparity clearly. They do not become as strong as men.
@@user-hv5wi6nd4i There is marked difference in crime patterns of men and women, with men consistently responsible for most violent crime, and virtually all (96+%) rape. The share evens out more in categories like 'larceny-theft', 'property crime', 'fraud', 'embezzlement'. The only category where women dominate (60%+) as perpetrators is 'prostitution and commercialized vice'. Looking at victims by sex is also educational. Whatever the reasons, sex differences matter greatly in crime, and should matter in incarceration. No wonder the prison system has two types of segregation, by sex and by severity of crime (level of security prisons).
If Tuvel has the ability to be rational and think critically, she certainly doesn't display it here. She's trying desperately to make stupid ideas sound intelligent, and she fails, miserably. She is clearly not a smart person.
Rebecca is saying we should be less politically divided,but i bet in her class she discriminates against white males and she encourages DEI pleadges by the way she talks
She seems to think DEI and academic freedom can peacefully coexist if only people didn't "misguidedly" apply DEI (at ~ 53:11). Despite her own 'lived experience' with the article and mounting evidence from numerous academic and other institutions, she doesn't realize DEI at its core is a rejection of academic freedom. Talk about cognitive dissonance.
@@SlickSimulacrum yes exactly, free speech is the constitutional right to be paid by universities to launder right wing talking points as intellectual pursuits rather than distractions from class warfare
They asked multiple trans people and trans advocates to participate and they all refused on the grounds that they did not wish to be co-platformed with Kathleen Stock. Rebecca Tuvel was the only one who accepted the invitation and she should be applauded for doing so.
@@SlickSimulacrum Your side had a choice to defend the claim to the uber right to invalidate the rights of other protected classes They hid. It's not our fault they can't muster a normal debate and instead resort only to invectives as you amply demonstrate.
But this is different. Women are not a threat to women the way men are a threat to women. Segregating gay people is like the argument for racial segregation. A black woman has MUCH more in common with a white woman physiologically than she does with a black man (skin color). Men as a class are larger, stronger, faster, and have countless other physical advantages over women & that makes them dangerous! That's why we have sex segregated spaces in the first place! We didn't always have them & women were virtually tied to their homes because they didn't want to use public toilets with men.

Men as a class are larger, stronger, faster, & have countless other physical advantages over women & that makes them dangerous! Men who care about women know this & are happy to "stay in their lane" & not "colonize" women's spaces. Ironically, the kind of men who would demand access to women's spaces are exactly the kind of men who don't respect women's boundaries & the kind of men that needed to be kept out of women's spaces in the first place! That's why we have sex segregated spaces! We didn't always have them & women were virtually tied to their homes because they didn't want to use public toilets with men. This is entirely different from lesbians & hetero women using the same facilities. Something like 95% of sexual crimes are committed by men & women are the targets of sexual crimes in 90% of cases. That alone tells you that women need protection from biological men, not from biological women (including lesbians). We are dealing in reality, not prejudice against a group of people. All we have to do is look around the world & throughout history to see the pervasiveness of male violence against women. That's why we HAD a "Violence Against Women Act," (although that's been gutted because now men can just say they are women so the world woman is meaningless).
The online environment can be very much like that. I recognise this. However, I don't think Stock is being non-platformed in the least. How is it a witch-hunt? Stock has a huge audience and a lot of support.
Right? I wonder how much more she's paid now relatively to her work as a professor. Nowadays getting canceled just means receiving criticism and then fat paychecks doing press tours about your feelings after receiving criticism.
Thanks for letting us know that you're a typical brainwashed wokie who makes conclusions before actually even listening to what a person has to say. Nothing new here. Your statement is literally the caricature of your ideology.😅
She's not anti-trans. She is for biological reality & the protection of women & girls from men who will use self-ID to get access to women & girls. You will even call actual transexuals anti-trans if they disagree with your dogma in any way. You sound like a True Believer in a cult. You haven't listened, but you know someone is "mega anti trans" w/o hearing a word they say. You've been indoctrinated to not listen to anyone who disagrees with you by the cult, who calls dissenters bigots & transphobes so they can dismiss the points they make without even hearing them. Cults don't like people hearing the insights of people outside the cult.
Kathleen Stock makes so much more sense than Rebecca Tuvel, simply because she is speaking plain truth.
Probably because she is older and has more experience as well.

I would actually love to see a legitimate debate between these two women regarding their points of disagreement.
How do you define 'legitimate'?
Given how outmatched intellectually Tuvel is, and how determined she is to ignore reality, there is no way that she could win a debate against Stock.
Because their ideas are so crazy, there are only 2 ways in which trans ideologues can approach debate: either they deny reality, or they acknowledge reality and say we should ignore it.
Thank you for the wonderful discussion and the opportunity to hear educated people discuss a topic that is so fascinating, but that we often don’t get to discuss because it’s so polarizing. I appreciate that both participants were respectful and allowed the other to speak without demanding purity.
Rebecca's attempted analogy to black male prisoners is so off the wall. It's not greater criminality, but racialized prosecution, conviction and sentencing, most easily demonstrated by the handling of drug cases. She should know this.
Pursuit of social justice must be based on truths .
great discussion. sharing
Rachel suffers from toxic compassion on the trans issue and safeguarding women’s spaces. Which makes her view on being cancelled somewhat hypocritical.
I'd really like to hear the whole discussion, but unfortunately, the microphone for Doctor Stock is about 1/3 the level of the other panelists, so she can barely be heard, and the others are inadvertently drowning her out. If you can possibly correct the audio and re-upload it, thanks in advance.
OMG, I love your nametag user pic!! I saved that image to my computer!
At my school, in my film studies, they introduced queer theory to me and we watched queer films including Soldiers Girl which was interpreted by the professor as violence due to a man dating a trans woman, NOT, as I think it was, a man being killed due to being perceived as gay.
The audio is not great. Kathleen tends to speak softly and her sections need boosting.
Ms Tuvel decided to claim that since Black inmates are overrepresented in prisons, a Black inmate is more dangerous than an inmate of any other race convicted of the same crime, and thus (get this causality!) sex 'inclusion' in women's prisons isn't as dangerous. As if one male murderer is more dangerous than another male murderer just by virtue of their skin color. They are both murderers jailed for murder! I can't believe someone employed as a college professor would take such an obviously nonsensical position.
You misunderstood Tuvel's example. The example is meant to challenge the principle Stock is (or seems to be) relying on, which is something like "If members of two groups A and B are housed in the same prison, and members of group A are on average more violent than members of group B, then members of A and B ought to be segregated in that prison (or have completely different prisons)." Stock employs this principle to derive the conclusion that trans women and natal women ought to be segregated in prisons (or have entirely different prisons). Tuvel points out (correctly) that, if Stock is indeed relying on that principle, it would equally justify segregating black and white men in prison (or having separate prisons) since violent crime rates among black men (in the U.S.) are significantly higher than violent crime rates among white men (in the U.S.). But it's silly to suggest that black and white men ought to be segregated in prisons. So, the principle Stock is (or seems to be) relying on is silly. Now, Stock can either argue that she's not relying on that principle or argue that she is but there's a relevant difference between the two cases so the principle doesn't really have the absurd consequences Tuvel suggests. In any case, the philosophical move Tuvel is making is totally standard, and you completely missed it. No doubt this explanation, too, will fly completely over your head, but I'm giving it for the benefit of sharper people scrolling through the comments, not you.
@@esizzle2005 I suspect the black v white male offending difference is considerably less than offending differences between trans identified men v women. As Kathleen Stock pointed out in her 2019 submission to UK Parliament, 60% of UK ‘Trans women’ prisoners are sex offenders Including in 36 x rape; 10 x attempted rape. Since then we’ve learned 50% of US Federal ‘Trans women’ prisoners are sex offenders, and 50% of Canadian ‘Trans women’ prisoners are sex offenders. For male Prisoners generally the percentage is about 18% and women 3% . The risk for women from trans identifying men is greater than the risk for white men from black.
@@esizzle2005 Let's see how far your snide patronizing gets you. If the race analogy held any water and Stock is wrong, Tuvel should be in favor of the reverse of her example - if we don't lock up people by race we shouldn't lock them up by sex or gender either - and gender ID proponents should not want segregated prisons either. But neither Tuvel nor the gender lDs do so which is a huge tell. It's fundamentally silly to suggest race-based segregation in prisons, especially for the 'reason' Tuvel offers (the erroneous equating of race and sex vis-a-vis crime, and the misuse of the notion of statistical rates). It's silly because: 1) The rate of criminality does not mean one group is more violent than the other, it means one group may offend more times than the other. 2) The prison population is like a self-selected sample- they are all convicted criminals, no matter the race, while crime rate stats are on the basis of the whole population including non-offenders. 3) Prisoners are locked up for specific offenses, and along with sex segregation there IS severity of crime segregation (e.g. violent offenders; minimum, medium and max security prisons, etc.). It is a causal error to extrapolate from a statistical rate of criminality that a black male inmate locked *in max security* is much more violent and dangerous for his fellow inmates than any of the non-black inmates there. They are in max security for one reason only - they are all violent dangerous criminals! 4) However, there is consistent evidence that male crime patterns and associated crime and incarceration rates are substantially higher and qualitatively different than the respective female rates. They don't change just because you start playing language gender games. 5) The 'gender self-ID' (sometimes miraculously emerging right at trial!) of a male criminal, especially if convicted of violent crimes, and especially if convicted of violent crimes against women, should have no consequence for the sex segregation rule in prisons. Interestingly, we hear no demands from transmen to be put in male prisons due to their self-ID, wonder why that is - oh wait, who's more likely to be subject of a crime in prison: a male 'woman' in women's prison or a female 'man' in men's prison? Where prisons and I would add sports are concerned, gender self-ID seems to work in mysteriously lopsided ways to the exclusive benefit of transwomen aka males.
But...but the white murderer wears a frock.
@@esizzle2005 "Stock employs this principle to derive the conclusion that trans women and natal women ought to be segregated in prisons"
No she does not. She says that men, so called "transwomen" are men, and women ought to be segregated in prisons...something that was not controversial until queer theorists made you believe that subjective self-identifications are more importand than the very reason why women were put in seperate prisons in the first place.
Perhaps Tuvel's article should never have been published just for being too daft, but of course what happened around it was not right regardless. I doubt she learned anything from it though, judging by this conversation.
She seems like an idiot. She doesn't understand the issue at all. Just for starters, anyone talking about "transwomen" - a deeply offensive phrase I really try to avoid - is granting the false premise that there is some type of woman who is male.
God love you, Rebecca, because I know you mean well, but you remind me of the guy in our golf foursome who always gives pointers or tips on what the other 3 are “doing wrong” in their golf swing, or has marginal impulse control and has to blurt out after every strike of the ball “Good shot!”
Also, what’s funny in this p-cast is watching Stock’s droll and mildly exasperated expression with many of the comments from Rebecca.
Rebecca, academic teaching is meant for people like you. Do not lose that position ever, because you’ll be eaten alive outside the bubble.
The name we have for the guy in our foursome that we use when he’s out of earshot is the one I have for you:
Good Shot.
I know this sounds cruel, but it’s given by me ”humbly and with charity.” (Your words)
This doesn't sound cruel - it *is* cruel. And you mentioned no substantive disagreement you have with Dr. Tuvel in this comment - just ad hominem attacks against a clearly intellectually curious woman. This comment gives us no reason to think poorly of Dr. Tuvel, and gives us every reason to think poorly of you
@@connorkianpour1077 Lighten up a little, Connor!
I have to confess to a HUGE degree of admiration for K Stock, and generally agree with her ideas on this subj. and am likely a bit biased, but I tried to be objective...
I found it fascinating to watch the discussion a SECOND time - for the SOLE purpose of watching R Tuvel's body language and facial expressions throughout.
Her obvious and constant self-conscious behaviors betray her lack of confidence, either in herself or her ideas or BOTH.
I don't know that I've EVER seen such a telling display, really. Coy, funny faces, eye rolls and a peeking side-eye, hair twirling...juxtaposed against Stock's easy, self-assured demeanor, the contrast was stunning. I wound up feeling bad for her, she was so profoundly outmatched.
@@Ukie1MTMP More ad hominem attacks and bizarre psychologizing
She is an idiot. She's so so afraid of being seen as not nice, that she makes an utter fool of herself, like so many women are doing. The trans narrative is a threat - that's true - so you have to have self-respect and commitment to honesty to not cow to it, but plenty of people are able to do that. I have no respect for those like Tuvel who fail to even recognize the threat and that they are being threatened, and therefore their job is to not cow. That's all it is, is a threat to get us to roll over. Our job is to not roll over.
@@connorkianpour1077Connor, the dude you’re responding to isn’t *debating* Rebecca, so invoking the term ‘ad hominem’ is pointless. He’s just pointing out what is obvious to many of us.
Terrible audio volume.
People are starting to say they have pre crime in Canada
Rebecca is very naive.
But earnest, an earnest idiot.
"Biolphobia": an irrational aversion to biological reality (as a concept), and/or to those for whom biological reality is important.
Those for whom biological reality is important, can find biolphobic ideas troubling, distressing, or offensive.
Many adherents of the new gender ideology are biolphobic.
But by no means are all trans people biolphobic. Gender dysphoria and biolphobia are very different concepts.
Gender dysphoria is when you feel very uncomfortable about your own body and if the condition persists you may feel better presenting as the opposite gender, even living that way full time. Society had over the last few decades started to become far more accepting of people like this. But that progress has been hampered more recently by confusion with a new idea far less worthy: Biolphobia. Biolphobes reject the very concept that everyone's body is either male or female, and/or that that is important in some situations.
I admire Kathleen Stock but just could not bear to listen to the other young woman speaking as the vocal fry was absolutely unbearable. As well as the unecessary question mark at the end of each sentence.
Glad it wasn't just me who thought this😢
Just watched a great video this week analysing the development of female vocal fry in the media, then swiffly all proffessional arenas, that particularly affects American women. Truly a horrible affliction
What is vocal fry?
Stock is so grounded. Tuvel seems so much weaker and neurotic.
Got a little, or a lot, tired of the sound of RT's voice. She goes on and on and on...
Would have liked to hear more from Stock.
Kathleen! Rebecca writes books? Yikes. In that tone of voice, that vocal fry, that reveals so much?
I❤️KS
2 wrongs don't make a right
You can identify as different sex, and probably soon a different species, but never race or ethnicity. Who gets to decide these thing? TikTok? I don't get the logic.
So can we start protecting men from being raped in prisons now instead of joking about it? Lose the drop the soap jokes etc ?
I agree
Vocal fry-y-y-y-y-y. Why oh why ???
Complete change of topic mid run by the mod. Broke the flow of thought and exchange, tho perhaps needed as RT adds not much content to the conversation.
Vocal fry is nauseating! I cannot abide.
I find myself struggling to take any professor who throws in casual ”like”s like some 14-year-old girl into every second sentence seriously.
‘Academic article’. Lmfao
1:27:58 rebecca is so cute i can’t take it
Regarding the American woman theoretical counter argument of controlling testosterone in trans women would be a solution? Testosterone has nothing to do with violent crime as there are many examples of dangerous females that void this reasoning.
Testosterone may well have something to do with violent crime and there would need to be a lot more violent women to prove this isn't so. In fact many think there is a link. The problem is that it isn't the only or even primary factor and that reducing it doesn't have any guarantee of preventing violence or even significantly reducing it.
@@ribbonsofnight Fair point I overreached, yes testosterone is a factor in the level of violence and the level of violence corresponds to more men being in prison, but most men [alpha] who have high testosterone levels do not commit violent crime? Psychotic Disorders, personal trauma and other uncontrolled chemical imbalances appear more evident.
@@ribbonsofnight Not to mention females are not in a body that can do as much damage as a male body can inflict, in terms of violence against women and kids and men. Even if she is dosed up on T. The "trans men" in sports situation shows us that disparity clearly. They do not become as strong as men.
@@user-hv5wi6nd4i There is marked difference in crime patterns of men and women, with men consistently responsible for most violent crime, and virtually all (96+%) rape. The share evens out more in categories like 'larceny-theft', 'property crime', 'fraud', 'embezzlement'. The only category where women dominate (60%+) as perpetrators is 'prostitution and commercialized vice'. Looking at victims by sex is also educational. Whatever the reasons, sex differences matter greatly in crime, and should matter in incarceration. No wonder the prison system has two types of segregation, by sex and by severity of crime (level of security prisons).
She appears to be a Canadian living in America. We do not claim her.
Duvet brings a good point, a realistic one that’s to say.
people who believe men can be women if they say so do not have “good points”
If Tuvel has the ability to be rational and think critically, she certainly doesn't display it here.
She's trying desperately to make stupid ideas sound intelligent, and she fails, miserably.
She is clearly not a smart person.
Rebecca is saying we should be less politically divided,but i bet in her class she discriminates against white males and she encourages DEI pleadges by the way she talks
She seems to think DEI and academic freedom can peacefully coexist if only people didn't "misguidedly" apply DEI (at ~ 53:11). Despite her own 'lived experience' with the article and mounting evidence from numerous academic and other institutions, she doesn't realize DEI at its core is a rejection of academic freedom. Talk about cognitive dissonance.
What a nasty thing to say about an educator without a shred of actual evidence to substantiate the accusation.
@@connorkianpour1077 What was said that was so nasty?? You make it sound like someone accused her of something heinous.
Seems like a less-than-useful panel to discuss an entire population of people without actually including those people in the discussion.
That's what free speech is, didn'cha know?
@@SlickSimulacrum yes exactly, free speech is the constitutional right to be paid by universities to launder right wing talking points as intellectual pursuits rather than distractions from class warfare
They asked multiple trans people and trans advocates to participate and they all refused on the grounds that they did not wish to be co-platformed with Kathleen Stock. Rebecca Tuvel was the only one who accepted the invitation and she should be applauded for doing so.
@@meanbugappreciationclub4460 ,
Well, yeah, that's certainly a strategic reasoning for platforming human garbage.
@@SlickSimulacrum Your side had a choice to defend the claim to the uber right to invalidate the rights of other protected classes They hid. It's not our fault they can't muster a normal debate and instead resort only to invectives as you amply demonstrate.
I find Kathleen stock fascinating. Here is an out lesbian using the sane arguments used against people like her 40 years ago
You sound insane. Her sexuality has nothing to do with using the bathroom and she doesn't take any space that is not already hers.
none of these arguments were ever used against lesbians - after all, 40 years ago precisely everyone understood that a lesbian doesn’t have a penis.
But this is different. Women are not a threat to women the way men are a threat to women. Segregating gay people is like the argument for racial segregation. A black woman has MUCH more in common with a white woman physiologically than she does with a black man (skin color). Men as a class are larger, stronger, faster, and have countless other physical advantages over women & that makes them dangerous! That's why we have sex segregated spaces in the first place! We didn't always have them & women were virtually tied to their homes because they didn't want to use public toilets with men.

Men as a class are larger, stronger, faster, & have countless other physical advantages over women & that makes them dangerous! Men who care about women know this & are happy to "stay in their lane" & not "colonize" women's spaces. Ironically, the kind of men who would demand access to women's spaces are exactly the kind of men who don't respect women's boundaries & the kind of men that needed to be kept out of women's spaces in the first place! That's why we have sex segregated spaces! We didn't always have them & women were virtually tied to their homes because they didn't want to use public toilets with men. This is entirely different from lesbians & hetero women using the same facilities. Something like 95% of sexual crimes are committed by men & women are the targets of sexual crimes in 90% of cases. That alone tells you that women need protection from biological men, not from biological women (including lesbians). We are dealing in reality, not prejudice against a group of people. All we have to do is look around the world & throughout history to see the pervasiveness of male violence against women. That's why we HAD a "Violence Against Women Act," (although that's been gutted because now men can just say they are women so the world woman is meaningless).
Can you explain what you mean by that specifically?
There's no witchhunt. Both these academics are platformed everywhere and Kathleen Stock in particular is constantly in the limelight.
@@DexterDexter123 he didn't miss it, he purposely ignored it because it doesn't fit the trans cult's narrative
How many feminist lives are regularly being threatened online? terfisaslur
The online environment can be very much like that. I recognise this. However, I don't think Stock is being non-platformed in the least. How is it a witch-hunt? Stock has a huge audience and a lot of support.
She should be. She’s a genius.
Right? I wonder how much more she's paid now relatively to her work as a professor. Nowadays getting canceled just means receiving criticism and then fat paychecks doing press tours about your feelings after receiving criticism.
Rebecca Tuvel is a good caricature of everything classist, reality-divorced, and spineless in academia.
Come on, at least she showed up, we gotta give her that.

No, she is pro women and children and if you actually took the time to listen to it you would know that.
"I have not listened to any of this but I can tell that woman in the middle is mega anti trans."
No, she's pro-women's rights!
Thanks for letting us know that you're a typical brainwashed wokie who makes conclusions before actually even listening to what a person has to say. Nothing new here. Your statement is literally the caricature of your ideology.😅
She's not anti-trans. She is for biological reality & the protection of women & girls from men who will use self-ID to get access to women & girls. You will even call actual transexuals anti-trans if they disagree with your dogma in any way. You sound like a True Believer in a cult. You haven't listened, but you know someone is "mega anti trans" w/o hearing a word they say. You've been indoctrinated to not listen to anyone who disagrees with you by the cult, who calls dissenters bigots & transphobes so they can dismiss the points they make without even hearing them. Cults don't like people hearing the insights of people outside the cult.
😂😂😂 no, she is pro-women. No need to be paranoid, dear.
Love love love Kathleen Stock!! Can't even listen to the other one.She's unbearable with a voice to match.
