![]() ![]() So, while I don't agree with every fine point Stock makes in Material Girls, I know that her positions are not influenced by any special interest group. Stock has pissed off academia and feminists-I've seen it myself on Twitter, never mind her book calling out academia's penchant for "novel hot takes"-and she clearly doesn't care. Stock represents no one but herself she's at once an academic, a philosopher, and a feminist-but she's gone rogue in search of the truth. ![]() These ideas dominate almost all areas of public debate and policy. ![]() Material Girls is about gender, sex, feminism, and transgender ideology, topics that are inseparable from wider cultural forces today-like postmodernism and poststructuralism. In future decades, there will be a set of canonical books by authors who challenged today's mainstream doctrines and promoted reason-imagine that!-as alternatives to our deranged, identity-politics-obsessed culture Kathleen Stock's Material Girlswill be in this canon, no doubt. ![]()
