February 27, 2022 Made By History - with Alice Dreger
Historian and journalist Alice Dreger is perhaps best known for her book Galileo's Middle Finger, in which she chronicles the smear campaign against Dr Michael Bailey for his book, The Man Who Would Be Queen. Her book has been described by some as "an exoneration of Dr Bailey" and an important reminder that politically motivated science denialism exists on the left as well as the right.

February 14, 2022 Light Reading for Grandparents - With Dr Michael Bailey
Dr Bailey is a psychologist, behavioural geneticist, and professor at Northwestern University. His research on the etiology of sexual orientation led him to the topic of transsexualism in natal males. In 2003, his book The Man Who Would be Queen, about 2 types of transsexualism (HSTS and AGP), launched the concept of Blanchard's Typology into the mainstream, and Bailey into hot water with trans activists.

The Man Who Would Be Queen is no longer in print, but is available as a free PDF: https://www.nap.edu/login.php?record_id=10530&page=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nap.edu%2Fdownload%2F10530
