Canon

Peterson and Walsh discuss how certain claims about gender have become professionally dangerous to question, which removes them from the domain of science (where all claims must be falsifiable) and places them in the domain of ideology (where questioning is heresy).

Highlights

Walsh describes how asking the straightforward question What is a woman? to academics, politicians, and activists revealed an institutional unwillingness to engage with basic definitional questions. The refusal to answer a simple question became more revealing than the answer itself.
