For today’s final free Singal-Minded of 2019, I’m simply going to highlight my recent work and thank all of you reading this newsletter. I’m very pleased with how it has gone so far, which is partly because of those who have shelled out for a paid subscription (hey, thanks!), but also because those who read the free version have sent it to their friends, posted it on social media, and so on. I really appreciate that you read what I write, whatever flavor of subscriber you are.
Today I posted a long, in-depth look at the Maya Forstater/J.K. Rowling situation for paid subscribers. It gets into the details of various legal and philosophical debates over gender identity that are likely to be very important in the years to come. I also posted an email exchange I had with a very smart and helpful expert on British labor law — that one’s free and here (I didn’t want to clog your inboxes with it).
Below is the other stuff you’ve missed recently if you’re not a paid subscriber. If you aren’t, please consider it! What better way to kick off 2020 than with more emails in your inbox??? Also, if you’re searching for a last-minute gift for someone you feel lukewarm toward, this could really be the ticket:
