Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "What Is a Woman" in English language version.
Disappointingly, Walsh didn't consult the British and Irish writers and speakers who know more than most about what it means to be a woman, or indeed what it means to be a man. ... Helen Joyce's Trans and Kathleen Stock's Material Girls are superb commentaries. Those two authors – distinguished in journalism and academia respectively – are walking antidotes to the gobbledegook, but neither were featured. And how could any commentary on transgender nonsense fail to cite Julie Bindel who was ploughing this furrow when Walsh was still at school?
What is a Woman? does have its blindspots. It builds upon the work of feminist writers and academics – including Helen Joyce and Kathleen Stock in the UK and Abigail Shrier and Kara Dansky in the US – but Walsh does not reference their contributions. Nor does he mention the groundbreaking work of Janice Raymond, who warned of the threat posed by transgenderism way back in 1979 in her book, The Transsexual Empire.
