TUF: Women as a sex class in a world of 'identity' – The AAWAA Women’s Advocate
In this first episode of The Unmoved Feminist, Martine and Liv dig into one of the most consequential shifts of the past two decades: the gradual displacement of sex by gender identity in law, policy and public debate. Drawing on the foundational work of Kate Millett, Shulamith Firestone and Christine Delphy, they trace the second-wave concept of women as a sex class — where it came from, what it explains, and why abandoning it doesn't advance equality for women but obscures the conditions that make struggle necessary. A grounding episode for listeners who can see something has gone wrong but haven't always had a framework to name it.This podcast provides general information and opinion only and does not constitute legal advice. Listeners should seek independent, professional legal advice before acting on any matters discussed. The hosts and AAWAA accept no liability for decisions made based on this content.
