Who's Afraid of Gender? is a 2024 book by Judith Butler that discusses the conservative movement against transgender rights, abortion and feminism, which is coalesced under the "anti-gender movement". Butler covers examples from Pope Francis's comments comparing transgender people to nuclear weapons and Vladimir Putin calling Europe 'Gayropa' and saying gender is a Western construct that will destroy the family. Butler argues that the moment calls for solidarity between persecuted groups and a coalition of resistance. [1] [2] [3]
