Ten years ago, the overwhelming majority of Americans didn’t think about transgenderism–but now, it’s become a phenomenon that could cost you your job if you end up on the wrong side of the gender ideology debate. What explains the rapid growth of this ideology? How does transgenderism affect children? How has this development affected free speech? Is it actually harmful toward women to accept the radical demands of gender ideology?
The Jefferson Council and Common Sense Society hosted a night of discussion with Abigail Shrier, an award-winning author and renowned scholar of transgenderism and its impact on society.
