Greetings fellow editors. The presentation of gender-critical feminism fails hard at NPOV, so I'm dusting off the old keyboard and jumping back in. We fixed it for Scientology, we can fix it for old-fashioned feminists.

Game plan

It's not a perfect analogy, but if I were to document communism from scratch I would start with the principles of Karl Marx while acknowledging the emergence of both Stalinism and democratic socialism, which rightly belong in separate articles. To start with, I would quote from accessible non-fiction books by modern authors who argued either for or against these principles, ideally both. Links to organization, community and news websites are an acceptable stopgap. Time permitting, I would go into the weeds looking for primary sources.

Looking for:


 * GC claims, especially frameworks used to break down the issues
 * Responses to gender identity claims
 * Actions opposing trans rights
 * Counterclaims and counterarguments

It would be foolish to characterize the issue as all women against all rights for all transwomen. Lesbians who support an expansion of trans rights, and transfolk who support gender-critical views are of particular interest.

Online sources

Unsurprisingly my best references so far are from the UK. I will try to do better!
