Listen Later

On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Dr. Abigail Favale about her book The Genesis of Gender. It’s a conversation that seeks clarity about contested questions including feminism, womanhood, and gender identity. Among the topics we discuss:

  • Dr. Favale's story of her journey from conservative evangelicalism to gender studies scholar to Catholic convert
  • What it might mean to be a "feminist" and the distinctive characteristics of the four "waves" of feminism
  • A clear definition of what it means to be a woman
  • What it might mean to disagree with the gender paradigm while also caring for persons who have adopted it
  • Wrestling with the contemporary issue of pronoun use
  • What Dr. Favale would say to young women in contemporary society
