You Have Permission to Question, Scrutinize, Push Back, and Dissent!
Jamie Reed, Cori Cohn, and Lauren Leggieri report on their adventures and misadventures trying to explain and mitigate the gender culture wars. We will publish most weeks, focusing some on the news and some on important topics from social transition to lawsuits to what the heck the word “gender” means.
Jamie Reed, Lauren Leggieri, and Cori Cohn break down the U.K.’s big news: the National Health Service launching a dedicated detransitioner service. What does this mean for accountability—and how does an institution open a clinic to address harm while continuing to cause it?
Then, attorney Glenna Goldis joins to discuss the Texas doctor who fled to Oregon and the Kansas lawsuit challenging gender medical practices. Glenna will return regularly as our resident legal analyst.

We’re also looking for a sports expert to join us from time to time—someone who can keep us updated on the state of women’s sports, and the men who refuse to take the hint and play where they belong: the open category, where they can finally compete on a level playing field.
If you have any suggestions (or think this could be a good fit for you), please contact us at [email protected], attention Sports Desk, or drop your ideas in the comments below.
Sorry for the short show notes this week — it’s Halloween, we’re tired, and there’s a full-size bag of Reese’s Pieces waiting for me. 🎃
