A #conspiracytheory about #sex and #gender is being peddled around the world by the #FarRight

Perreau, the MIT professor, suggests the best defense lies within the texts that conservatives are distorting. “#GenderIdeology” may not exist as framed by its creators, but there is plenty of serious theoretical work on gender. A better understanding of those ideas would inoculate people from believing their misrepresentation, and make them realize that when it comes to gender construction, religious institutions are seasoned authorities. What else, other than social constructs, are the ideas that woman came from the rib of a man or that only men can serve as priests? What of the notion that the Virgin Mary procreated without ever having sex? “It’s actually the church which believes in #creationism,” Perreau says.“They are the ones who believe that you can define yourself out of nothing.”
