When Ideology Meets Reality

I’ve avoided talking about the whole ‘gender identity’ debate here because, frankly, only fools rush in…! And where there is rational discussion on this topic, it often isn’t happening online.

But Richard Dawkins is braver than me, and seldom shies away from pointing out actual facts, even when it makes some people uncomfortable!

So I found his interview with Helen Joyce, formerly an editor at the Economist, fascinating. It’s long, and I know many of my readers will have very different views about it, but if you do have any interest in the topic, it’s well worth watching. And it should be required viewing for anyone involved in education, I think, because they talk a lot about children.

As somebody says in the comments, “Listening makes me feel like grown-ups have entered the room.”
