Abstract
Can we find a way through and even around the messy gender wars currently raging on- and offline? In this wide-ranging and timely conversation with Jana Bacevic, sociologist and activist Finn Mackay provides important theoretical background and context to the “gender wars” or “TERF wars” – the fracture at the forefront of the LGBTQ international conversation. Using queer and female masculinities as a lens, Mackay explores the current generational shift that is refusing the previous assumed fixity of sex, gender, and sexual identity.
Finn Mackay is a Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of the West of England and completed a PhD in the Centre for Gender & Violence Research at the University of Bristol. A longstanding feminist activist, Finn founded the London Feminist Network in 2004; and is a frequent media commentator on feminist and LGBTQI+ topics. Finn’s latest book "Female Masculinities and the Gender Wars" was published last year by Bloomsbury. drfinnmackay.co.uk / twitter.com/Finn_Mackay
