Female Masculinities and the Gender Wars
The Politics of Sex
Finn Mackay
Explore the complex and current 'gender wars' or 'TERF wars' within the LGBTQ community with Female Masculinities and the Gender Wars. Finn Mackay examines the generational shift challenging assumed fixity of sex, gender, and sexual identity through queer and female masculinities. With growing political backlash against transgender and trans rights movements, this book uniquely approaches the debate through the lens of female masculinity, butch and transmasculine lesbian masculinities. In the wake of popular discourse on 'toxic masculinity', men's rights activism, and the MeToo movement, this groundbreaking work sheds light on essential topics in political science and sociological academia.
