Feminism and the Transgender Movement with Abigail Dodds

The About Her Podcast

In this week’s episode of The About Her Podcast, I chat with Abigail Dodds about Feminism and the Transgender Movement. Abigail and I address a number of questions in this episode including the following:

(1) Is it sinful or wrong to consider oneself a Feminist?

(2) Has the Feminist Movement advanced in recent years and if so, how?

(3) How do we rightly or biblically empower women, especially on issues where women are being mistreated or misrepresented?

In addition to these questions, we also discuss two events/articles that made their way into the public eye this past week. First, USA Today's publication of an article identifying Dr. or Admiral Rachel Levine as “one of USA TODAY’s Women of the Year.” USA Today considers this award, “A recognition of women across the country who have made a significant impact” (USA Today). Second, the NCAA's recognition of Penn State Swimmer Lia Thomas as "the first transgender woman to win an NCAA championship" (The Washington Post).

Abigail Dodds is a Wife to Tom and a mom to five great kids. She is a Regular Contributor at Desiring God and the author of '(A)Typical Woman.' She also writes frequently for her own blog hopeandstay.com and is a member of Bethlehem Baptist Church in the Twin Cities where her husband, Tom, serves as an elder. In her free time, Abigail is a baking enthusiast, gardener, and, as she says, a mediocre knitter, but I’m sure she is wonderful at knitting too.
