NextImg:'Feminists did lead the way in this debate': US professor claims trans ideology is ‘anti-feminist'

US author Robert Jensen has argued that trans ideology is "anti-feminist and intellectually incoherent" as he spoke about his views on the debate.

The outspoken critic is not shy when it comes to speaking out on his views about transgender in July 2014, MonkeyWrench Books collective cut all ties with Jensen over his article reviewing two feminist books that critiqued transgender identity.

Speaking to Jacob Rees-Mogg on GBN America, Jensen said: "The first radical feminist critique of the ideology of the trans movement came in the late 1970s by an extraordinary feminist philosopher who's done work on violence and prostitution.

"I think feminists did lead the way in this debate.

"In this case, I think the UK is far ahead of the US because of the debate over what it means for instance, for a male to claim to be female and therefore claim access to women's spaces.

"That debate is much more interesting in the UK than in the US.

"Unfortunately, my left-liberal comrades have all pretty much embraced the trans idea, and I think that's to the detriment of girls and women.

"I think it's to the detriment of basic intellectual life. I think there are a lot of problems with the claims the trans movement makes."
