Judith Butleris one of the world’s leading scholars and philosophers on issues of gender, sexuality, and the cultural phenomena that surround them. They are the author of the landmark 1990 book Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity, and more recently the 2024 follow-up work Who’s Afraid of Gender? Butler joined Current Affairs editor-in-chief Nathan J. Robinson to discuss the way people around the world—mostly conservatives, but some who consider themselves leftists, too—have become fearful and angry about what they call “gender ideology,” why they’re mistaken, and what might be done about it.
