This book demonstrates that the Left has lost its collective mind.

While the question “What is a woman?” shouldn’t be controversial, in today’s world, it undeniably is.

Matt Walsh provides a darkly comedic examination of our society by asking modern experts to define what a woman is, and finding that they come up completely empty.

He exposes the radical gender agenda and offers strategies for how you can push back against it.

Detrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult (Mary Margaret Olohan)

Mary Margaret Olohan Books - Detrans

Trans activists are vocal advocates—unless you regret your transition and choose to detransition. Questioning gender ideology is often met with silencing, but a powerful new book breaks this silence by featuring multiple interviews with detransitioners, giving voice to young people who were ensnared by this harmful ideology. Their testimonies, including those from lawsuits against the medical and therapeutic professionals who treated them, are unforgettable. June’s “Gay Pride Month” celebrates not only Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals, but also transitioning—a process that, as detransitioners reveal, involves far more complexity and pain than most people realize.

The number of teens and pre-teens convinced they were born in the wrong body has surged. Encouraged by a toxic online community and aided by teachers, doctors, and even their own parents, they are quickly set on a path involving puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and invasive “gender-affirming” surgeries.

Media and activists promote transitioning as a happy ending. However, countless young people suffer severe emotional and physical scars. Adding to their distress, the transgender community that once supported them now seeks to silence them.

In “Detrans,” fearless reporter Mary Margaret Olohan shares these hidden stories. Through in-depth personal interviews, the book uncovers the abuses detransitioners have faced—manipulative therapy, emotional torment, botched surgeries, and attempts to create phantom body parts. Their accounts reveal a disturbing truth that transgender activists strive to conceal.

“Detrans” is crucial evidence of the devastating impact of gender ideology.

Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity—and Why This Harms Everybody (James Lindsay)

In this compelling collaboration with Helen Pluckrose, James Lindsay dissects the pervasive woke talking points dominating today’s discourse, challenging notions such as the belief that only white people can be racist and the denial of biological sex.

If you find yourself perplexed by these seemingly irrational ideas and are tired of being labeled racist or transphobic for not conforming, this book is for you.

Lindsay begins with a thorough exploration of the origins of these concepts, tracing their roots to the French postmodernist movement. He details how these ideas have been embraced by intellectual elites and institutionalized in higher education.

He argues that science is not inherently racist and that not all social interactions are mere Marxist power struggles. Lindsay further demonstrates how these radical ideologies are fundamentally anti-democratic and conflict with the liberal principles that underpin our society.

While acknowledging the real issues of racism and inequality, Lindsay contends that these modern radical ideas ultimately harm the very individuals they claim to support. This balanced critique is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand and counter the woke agenda.

The End of Gender: Debunking the Myths about Sex and Identity in Our Society

Is gender an inherent trait, or are we shaped by societal influences? In The End of Gender, neuroscientist and sexologist Dr. Debra Soh explores this contentious issue through a research-based lens, debunking common misconceptions about the nature vs. nurture debate and examining what it truly means to be male or female in contemporary society.

Scientific and objective, and rooted in original research and carefully conducted interviews, Soh delves into a broad array of topics, including gender-neutral parenting, gender dysphoric children, and the neuroscience behind transgender identities. She challenges the prevailing notion that gender is purely a social construct and exists on a spectrum, arguing against the idea that male and female brains function identically.

The End of Gender is an essential, conversation-starting read that provides the facts needed to form your own informed conclusions about gender identity and its role in the modern world.
