- Feminists for Free Speech presents a new live stream series: Where Are All the Women? A question asked perpetually with regard to the gender identity debate and attack on women's rights and free speech demands to know "Where are all the women?!" We are, after all the ones losing our sex-based rights and sex-segregated spaces. "The women" are, in fact, everywhere, but silenced, censored, banned from social media, and without platforms to speak out. Well, here we are. We are long time feminists who have been banished into political homelessness. We are advocates for free speech, civil liberties, and bodily autonomy, and we will continue speaking out, no matter how much we are bullied, ignored, threatened, silenced, and shouted down.
We are presenting a bi-monthly four-part live stream series. This is our second stream in the series. Please tune in on Wednesday, July 19th at 5PM PT/8PM ET and join the live chat with your questions!

Back in the mid 1970's when there were still lesbian bars I was in my early 20's and a newly out lesbian. The occasional AGP would show up on a Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday night, the quiet nights, the nights when newly out single lesbians, like me, would practice going to the bar and working up the courage to go on a busier night. They would try and hit on lesbians who were there by themselves and talk about their internal sense of self, that they were really lesbians on the inside, blah, blah, blah. They wouldn't take no for answer then either and I dumped my scotch on the rocks in the lap of more than one of those creeps. Everything old is new again... only it seems much worse now. The internalized misogyny and homophobia coupled with the rise of "trans ideology" are taking a huge toll on young women and lesbians in particular. It breaks my heart. I'm so glad to hear you bring up the names and quotes from the second wave feminists. They certainly helped me develop strength and a sense of self that helped deflect a lot of the overt sexism of the culture back then. Great stories about Nero, too. I hope you send Matt Walsh your notes! I would love a copy, too. Thanks to all three of you for your strength and courage and will to pick up and share our true feminist legacy (and take care not to fall for the bullshit that if it isn't perfectly presented then none of what women say is relevant and worth paying attention to).
This needs to be a national and international movement.
Loving this series. I love how we are getting three different perspectives from three different generations of women. The knowledge shared and referenced between the three of you is invaluable.
For decades Radical Feminists have told men and boys that they are ALL toxic scum, patriarchal oppressors that lack empathy and compassion and that they are ALL a danger to women and girls.
Then we wonder why young males fear manhood and want to transition into womanhood.
For decades Radical Feminists have been telling women and girls that ALL men and boys are out to get them and hurt them and control them and being a woman is all doom and gloom.
Then we wonder why young females fear womanhood and want to transition into manhood.
Abusive mothers who groom their infant sons to be trans girls and drag queens have been brainwashed and driven by the hatred and fear of the masculine and malesness, they don't want to bring another evil man into the world, so they create little women that will grow into the women that feminism has told them are perfect human beings.
Pro-trans women who identify as feminist have helped create the mess we're in but for some reason radical feminists are terrified to hold them accountable too, it's just easier to blame men.
Traditionally mothers produced all kinds of goods in the home…eg food production, textiles etc. the house is and has always been a source of family income
Now mothers are grooming their sons to be trans/drag.
Historically
Hi beautiful ladies, I’m a WOMAN and I appreciate you all so much! Thank you ❤
Joining your comment:)
Sex is a term of biology.
There are two sexes - male & female.
Gender is a term of grammar.
There are three genders - masculine, feminine, and neutral. (he, she, it)
Anyone who has studied languages would know this.
I started noticing the widespread misuse of the term "gender" in place of "sex" back in the eighties. I attributed this to a combination of poor education and an aversion to using the word "sex" in media.
Unfortunately, through a combination of intentional language manipulation by activists,, and an overall lowered societal intellect, there is probably no going back.
So excited to see you three again. It was a big deal for me last time. To hear Mary Lou was especially awesome, and brought me back to my 90's roots!! Much love to each of you.
So nice to hear writers from the past
So freaking grateful for you ladies, all the ppl before us, and the resources mentioned for those of us who have been swimming in disbelief and shock not knowing where to start looking for grounded push back
All real women need to get outside and support Kellie jay keen donate to LGB Alliance and amplify Detrans voices more its time to stop this gender madness.
For the algorithm....💥💥💥💥
Really interesting to learn about how feminists spotted the gender madness early on. This soup has been on the stove for quite a while. To counteract it a united front is needed. That is what the focus should be, IMHO. When sanity returns all the old conflicts can be rekindled and honest battles ensue.
Interesting discussion. I'm interested to know how this translates to action. How can women pushback against bad forces?
Maybe we need to establish more societies and events for women only and just refuse to let men invade…
Three inspirational women! Thank you so much xxx
Wow. I’ve been watching videos by Helen Joyce, Louise Perry, Posie Parker - all in Britain. Glad I found you guys- wonder why I didn’t I find you until now. My little sister did, and she told me about you. You all have been aware of and addressing gender ideological and the assault on women’s rights for SO long. Sorry I’m late! Can’t believe you were there, Meghan, testifying alongside Jordan Peterson … and I just today learned about your work. Jordan Peterson and Matt Walsh are now famous (and they both seem a little too angry for my tastes). You three are so real, so nice and so smart. I’m going to text this video series to my best friend and ask her to text it to a woman she knows will appreciate it -and so on - hopefully we can keep adding links to the chain. 🤷♀️ 🤦♀️
Its hard not to get distracted when we and the women before us fought so hard for our voices and now we are experiencing things like the Central Park Pride 2023 incident. An angry mob coming after regular women for doing normal stuff we've earned the right to do. Like Riley Gaines being basically held for ransom at SF State. Its hard not to get distracted and I dont know if we even know what our focus is. Do we? Free speech to promote the preservation of women's sex based rights and spaces?
We are being gaslit by transhumanist narcissists and the mob they have purchased. Narcissists always try to accuse you of the exact thing they are doing to you, so you do something crazy to defend yourself, and it makes you look bad and then they accuse you, and win over the crowd who then defends them by attacking you. Its a super effective strategy. It is designed to produce massive amounts of emotion. They do not have an internal power source like regular people have.
Lots of people have studied how to deal with narcissists. Its what the human race by and large needs to get good at- recognizing narcissists, who are often magnificent liars. One place to start is by identifying the shared fantasy. Being bonded with a narcissist is founded in a shared fantasy. I think that's Richard Brannon who talkes about that. You started this episode basically looking at that I think.
Anyway, I am absolutely loving this. I feel so supported by these conversations, as I learn to keep these conversations going in my circles.
The common denominator is the 4th industrial revolution, AKA the Great Reset, stakeholder capitalism, Transhumanism, communitarianism sustainable development etc, which must be stopped by all means necessary.
Thank you for this series and for all the work you ladies do!
I'm really enjoying this series.❤
Yay!
love these!
I am 60 and I had football coaches for history teachers. Erasure of history is intentional and reactionary.
So did I!
Transhumanism, social engineering, eugenics, transgender ideology.
🎯
Very good conversation. 👍
You really broke some new ground here, - it’s the patriarchy.
FABULOUS! I think this was my favourite of the three!
At about 19:00-19:18, Yes, that's exactly the way it is. And it is bizarre to propose or suggest that who we are (the stereotypes) isn't connected to what we are (biologically male or female). It's not even sexist (in the pejorative sense) to admit as much, find me a mammalian species which doesn't exhibit sex-based behavourial differences.
Of course some of our behaviour is biological, but they're saying that there is a portion of it that is taught- cultural and societal beliefs about how men should behave vs how women should behave. Mary-lou was saying it's sexist to believe that all male stereotypes are 100% rooted in biology, and that all female stereotypes about women's strengths and weaknesses are true and are also completely rooted in biology. Biological essentialism posits that male behaviour vs female behaviour (e.g., sex roles) is completely dictated by biology, rather than social factors such as differences in how society socializes boys vs girls.
@@JosieMarie-vg9ei It may well be that your interpretation is what she meant to say, but she did not choose the words you chose e.g. I heard the words "it's biologically connected; that's just the way it is," and so that is what I commented on.
We‘re here, we‘re here😊and going nowhere!! Certainly not hiding💪
Absolutely the Great Cosmic Mother is a wonderful book! Highly recommended everyone read it.
One of the things that Mary Harrington points out in her book is that people have this false idea that before the Industrial Revolution women just stayed home taking care of babies and warrants a part of society's production which is completely false. Yes women's production happened in or just around the home in agriculture and baking and spinning and weaving etcetera but it was production nonetheless. Part of the reason it was that way was so that women could take care of children while being part of production. The reaction against stay-at-home moms happened post industrial revolution when women were removed from societal production and there was an alienation and being a housewife or stay-at-home mom. After I posted this Isabella started talking about it I guess that's where the conversation was going thanks Isabella
Oops too late.
29:00 the distinction between actually being a mother and actually being an income earner at home is if the mother PAYS/HIRES a substitute for her mother work (nannies and daycare... daycare is simply nannies for the not so wealthy).
Sending love, Meghan. Love your channel.
❤
hey! loved the podcast, could you make a list of the sources you've used, kate millet's speach etc...
I've been trying to find them but it's difficult , would love to be able to read more ...
Another quick comment: I'm glad to hear Isabella accept traditional stay-at-home moms. As a early-40s man, growing up at the end of the 20th century and being an adult in the 21st century, traditional stay-at-home moms being highly prized by feminism was most definitely NOT the message I absorbed (although it might be a stretch to say such moms are highly prized by Isabella). And in terms of stay at home moms who actually do stuff... I know these three ladies won't ever do this, but I suggest they whip out the Old Testament and read Proverbs 31 and see whether or not the profile of "Lady Wisdom" that appears there suggests someone who does nothing but stay in her house and clean the floors all day, or whatever.
In the early eighties there was a split before third-wave feminism completely took over, between the more radical feminist and what was Loosely being called care feminism. And Care feminism was an attempt to recognize the actual physical and biological differences and evolutionary differences between men and women while saying that women's nurturing and Care is a strength not a weakness. That there's value in both stereotypical masculine qualities and stereotypical feminine qualities
It’s confusing to understand why men who want to be women insist on being defined as women when the opportunity they have is to define an entirely new class of human beings. To be free of women’s past and to be free of false definitions that have plagued the female since time immemorial Why don’t they just do this? Why is it so essential for them to take over women and all things women? It’s very clear that transgenderism is concerned with a relationship a man has with the experience of women. And more than that, a
dominating predilection and obsession with entering the female. A desire to fully “Buffalo Bill” the female, and to re-create a fixated, stunted, frustrated, scared stiff, overwhelmed relationship with women. A desire to be forever in the womb, forever breastfed, forever in mom’s bed and mom’s clothes and the power to enthrall and control men (the father) with sex and sluttiness with no desire to possess and to have a level of daddy’s attention that is impossible as a male. All of this once again reveals that transgenderism is a particularly MALE preoccupation/fetish. And what men want to do is conquer, possess, control, dominate and erase women. it’s NOT/NEVER to join or to be a partner with or ally with women.It’s really sad to see what it is really about. Even if a transgender acknowledges their true sex, and is meek and humble, and knows they feel relaxed and de-stressed when they wear women’s clothes…, it’s still a fetish, an enactment, an obsession. It’s not a rational response to attempt to be what one can never be… and that’s they key to whatever is derived from the fetish. If men could actually become women, they would find their same essential self on the other side. No completeness or truth, just a suicide. Either that or they would find NOTHING of the authentic self (by definition) and NEITHER of these outcomes would be AS satisfying as the impossible fantasy that hides their authentic self.
You could also ask the same about women who identify as "men"
@@Ash-gtr32 yeah. I just didn’t want to engage in a parallel discussion because they’re not exactly the same. Women transition for the same reasons, but different percentages. My instincts say few transwomen have a male fetish. Most are butch. Exceedingly few have the bottom surgery and those seem to be the younger lesbians who are just following the medicalization gauntlet. And women also have no pretensions about joining men, participating in male competitions or wanting to punch transmen rejecting males in the face. Transmen are the female equivalent of transwomen, but because (as we have been didcussing) men are men and women are women, and there is no actual possibility of transitioning, there is nearly nothing in common between the two. They are diametrically opposed rather than mirror images of one another. I also think the question of redefining transmen as a separate physical and political body is also nearly impossible. Because they are women and not men, and will always e seen as women, and women are still largely shunned as a political and advocating force, the idea to “arise” as anything more than exotic lesbians is nearly impossible. Then, we have the other issue, which is REAL transmen have zero interest in advocating for transmen’s rights… like “REAL” transwomen, (not the mysogynist) they want to blend into and be accepted as males. The last thing they’d want to do is signal and concede they are not/can’t be men. So MEN who want to be women, because they DON’T want to blend into femaleness should pursue their own political agenda. I see it as a HUGE contradiction and irony that these radical mysogynist fetishests INSIST on being thought of as only female, but when they fight it’s 100% for “trans rights” and NEVER for woman’s rights. It’s completely revealing as it is disgusting and absurd. I mean, we know there really is no “trans rights” being fought for, it’s a camouflage for an attempt at mind control, gaslighting and the erasure of women.
Men & women transition for quite different reasons. The best descriptions I've heard from detranstioners goes something like, "Men are seeking something & women are escaping something". Also, women's & men's sexuality is quite different. Women are not AGP's.
@@sherrietaha8377 yes! And this illustrates yet another reason (of quadrillions), why men and women aren’t/can’t be each other. The entire EVERYTHING is different. It’s very troublesome when rather than grope and struggle to understand oneself, individuals opt for emulation and pat answers. THE REALITY is, this “hardship” of identity is not the sole realm of trans individuals. They just find themselves in a catchment area where some acknowledge reality and others don’t. But in TRUTH EVERY human is on a singular personal somewhat unknown journey of self discovery. And no individual group plight takes precedence over any other. In men wanting to be women, we are asking ALL women to redefine themselves and their history and struggle, but you are also asking ALL MEN to redefine women as well. So, suddenly my mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, wife are NOT what i thought they were? Because men are not women you cannot have them join women without completely redefining what a woman is. I know that what I love about all of the women in my life, the ones that raised me that nursed me and birthed me. that made love to me and supported me and held me and gave meaning and purpose and indescribable fullness to my life, -there’s something so incredibly specific and special about what WOMEN provide that it’s beyond my imagination and power to draw s circle big enough to include a man was in that female space. It’s infuriating. WHAT is happening to me (and I’m not a woman) is the most CORE experiences if my life, I’m being DEMANDED to have these experiences denied, diminished, invalidated, erased and replaced, thus destroying the special gem of the female that has served as the brightest and most essential beacon of meaning and beauty in my life. No. That demand is NOT a trans right. And my wholesale rejection of that demand is not a phobia.
One of the things I used to point out when I taught self-defense is that there is a great overlap in terms of just basic size between men and women. At the upper echelon say top 10% will be men and at the bottom, the smallest, will be women but there is an 80% overlap in between roughly. That does not mean that a man and a woman of the same size have the same physical capacities in terms of Defending oneself. But you're right Isabella, it's even a bit starting to point that out right now, because it feels like you're almost proving the gender c u l t point, even though you're not
Thank you so much. I am very interested in what you say. For some reason Mary Lou is very enlighten for me, possibly because Im a boomer
I would love for you to go into AGP stuff. I am seeing it as deeply and inherently nisogynist., would you agree? Also Im thinking that AGP is the term for straight men fetishizing being a women but trans women are also sexualizing being a wonen just theyre gay is the only difference really. Would you gals agree?
I'm a millennial and I also find Mary Lou enlightening, I could listen to her all day 🤩
@@megankwisdom i agree entirely, thank you so much for having her on. I am a new subscriber and loving your channel
Mary Lou is magical and changed my mind about so many things
54:00 Greer has always been BRILLIANT!
I can really respect what you say at 20:45 - as a conservative Christian, I obviously believe that there is a divine component to gender roles. I don't think that means there can be no flexibility at all (and to state the extremely obvious, no amount of changing of gender roles can ever make a man a woman or vice versa).
1:13:00 My favourite line in my early days of academia in the 1980s was "Cogito Ergo Sum"
That line sounds toxic to me me, because it became it's own opposite, "I am what I think" rather than "I think therefore I am", anglo fucking up Latin!
Men blaming women for what they have done?? NOthing new to see here folks, just your regular misogyny.......please..........
But you have to admit this madness wouldn't be anywhere near the heights it's at now if it was only men running this sh!t show, people aren't blaming women, they're just sick of all the blame being put entirely on men.
Beating around the bush
I think the criticism that feminism had something to do with this isn't quite what was pointed to here. I think that the criticism stems from those feminist who fought to be completely equal in every single way the feminist who were so, and rightly so, concerned with Biology being used against women that they put it to the back and said biology doesn't matter.
31:40 💯
28:00 fake trad moms, yup!
GOOD MORNING JESUS LOVES YOU ❤
@@opalescentmica would you like to dance?
Respectfully, and I say this as a real fan, you're preaching to the converted. The people who say "where are the women?" - and I am one of them - aren't targeting you or the other women on this panel, so this defensive posture doesn't serve your argument. I don't agree with Matt Walsh and can't abide his POV on many issues and the GC feminists who have been in the trenches on this issue have every right to be frustrated, but instead of being frustrated with the odd man who asks "where are the women?" why not focus your energies on converting more of the under-35, educated women who seem to be in the thrall of gender ideology?!
You're wasting your time being mad at Matt Walsh even if he is a jerk... be honest about the problem of female complicity and stop blaming "the patriarchy" (eye roll) on this one.
If more under-35 women came over to the GC side of the argument regarding self-ID, trans participation in sports, access to sex-based spaces like prisons and the medicalization of minors then the whole movement would fall apart like a house of cards.
Sorry not sorry.
PS: Mary Lou Singleton hit the nail on the head: follow the money.
You may be right in part that focusing on Matt Walsh is pointless. But our aim is in large part to document history, which is important!
