Men and women used to cheer: vive la différence!

But now, contrary to all science and common sense, we’re supposed to believe that there is no difference. (And if you insist there is, you just might be accused of a hate crime!)

Our culture—and our laws—are endorsing a worldview rooted in craziness.
For instance, we’re told that:

•Boys who think they’re girls (and who could change their minds tomorrow) should be allowed to participate in girls’ sports—and shower in their locker rooms

•Expectant mothers are now “birthing individuals”

•Coed college dorm rooms and bathrooms are great, but single-sex clubs are a campus danger

•It’s horrible for stores to have separate boys and girls clothing departments (let alone toy sections)

•It would be a great idea for our military to lower physical standards and push young women and mothers into combat roles in the military

If you think that’s insanity, you’re not alone, but you might be surprised at just how widespread—and successful—this lunatic campaign has become.

In her compelling new book, Sex Scandal, journalist Ashley McGuire takes this radical campaign to task and reveals:

•How so-called “gender-norming” flies in the face of science (which is proving that men and women are even more different than commonly acknowledged)

•Why—especially if you have kids—it’s almost impossible to avoid the dangerous consequences of a “gender neutral” world

•How embracing sexual differences can make policing safer, government more efficient—and hedge funds lose less money

•How “gender neutrality” is making women more vulnerable to violence

•How the word “gender”—formerly a grammatical term—has been used to dismiss the reality of definite, biological “sex” (male and female) with fluid “gender identities”

•Why “gender” insanity is not something we can just ignore and hope will fade away, but need to refute—now—with hard, cold facts before it does any more damage (which it likely will)

Sex Scandal: The Drive to Abolish Male and Female is packed with news-breaking interviews, shocking examples, and “inconvenient” facts that everyone needs to read—and act on.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Amazon.com review: "Reading this book was a major wake up call. Although many of us hear anecdotal stories here and there that demonstrate how the gender issue is gaining steam, I had no idea this ideology has penetrated our culture so deeply. Despite the medical community's evidence that sex is a more significant index than previously thought, gender radicals are relentlessly strong-arming their agenda of gender neutrality and gaining momentum across America like a rapidly spreading virus. Written in a smart, modern tone, thoroughly researched (61 pages of footnotes), and covering many segments of society (schools, universities, the military, sports, hollywood, etc.), this book demonstrates the bizarre schizophrenia that characterizes the elite 'thought police' of the extreme Left. Where the Left used to claim the moral high ground in supporting women and their rights across the board, Mcguire reveals how their current agenda of denying the differences between male and female is actually leaving women more vulnerable than ever as this gender theory delegitimizes claims of abuse or discrimination that originate from our sex. This book is not shrill or whining - McGuire encourages empathy for those who genuinely do experience confusion about their sex, but she does meticulously and logically argue the benefits to all of recognizing our unique differences. The author frequently uses her own personal stories to illustrate her platform. Sex Scandal is an important book for just about ANY reader, from an academic in the throes of the issue to a new parent contemplating the challenges and choices ahead for their child. How society narrates what IDENTITY is impacts ALL of us directly and deeply. It's time to wake up and use our voice. Thank you for this tool Ashley McGuire." "Human biology is under siege--at the workplace, on the playing field, in classrooms and bathrooms, and even in our dictionaries! In this ground-breaking and meticulously researched book, Ashley McGuire plunges into every front of the progressives' war on the sexes. She rips the lid off the Left's obliteration of the fundamental differences between men and women. She exposes the profound havoc militant feminists and gender-bending crusaders are causing in our schools and culture. Sex Scandal searingly documents how the radical pursuit of 'gender neutrality' threatens true equality for all. McGuire's work is both an invaluable resource and a brave public service."
--Michelle Malkin, New York Times bestselling author of Culture of Corruption and Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild

"The 'war on boys' turned into a rout and we now live in an Orwellian society where everything about 'sex' and 'gender' is dictated to us by a group of powerful, ideological bullies. Ashley McGuire documents where we are, how it happened, and what's next in exacting--and harrowing--detail."
--Jonathan V. Last, author of What to Expect When No One's Expecting: America's Coming Demographic Disaster and senior writer at the Weekly Standard

"In her important book Sex Scandal, Ashley McGuire sounds the alarm on the destructive drive to eliminate sex differences. With devastating facts and figures she exposes the radical gender warriors who deny reality as the enemy of women's true equality."
--Kate O'Beirne, former Washington editor of National Review and author of Women Who Make the World Worse

"A masterful indictment of the Sexual Revolution and all its empty promises, Sex Scandal establishes Ashley McGuire as a powerful new voice and leader in the rising counterculture. Stylishly written, morally urgent, and logically flawless, this breakthrough book is essential reading for an age of delusion."
--Mary Eberstadt, author of It's Dangerous to Believe, How the West Really Lost God, and Adam and Eve after the Pill

Disaster will happen unless... you BUY and READ this BOOK... NOW!!!
This is exactly how to sell a book... plenty of excitement, condemnation, and *"all will be revealed"* by buying my book.I have not heard most of these concerns... clothing stores that are combining boys and girls departments?Boys playing on girl's teams and showering I have heard of. Gender and Sex are distinctly different as our heart and mind are. A person who has gone through a transformation to look like a girl, talk like a girl, dress like a girl, walk like a girl... and sometimes even get surgery -- is completely dedicated to being a girl. What is left out much of the time is girls who seek the male identity. Some people were born Russian, but dream of being American. And we treasure immigrants in this country. If we accept immigrants, then why not accept transgender?? True real-life transgender people are not, will not, can not just change their identity overnight.Girls and mothers are strong and have the same rights as boys and fathers for joining the military. Fathers have just as much right to paternality leave to bond with his baby as the mother.I bet the author was miss popular in high school and everyone supports her. Read her and tell me what you think.

Beyonce, sports, birth control, Kate Middleton, women in combat, paid leave policies… there is something for everyone in this fascinating, timely book. This is a must-read for anyone trying to make sense of the gender wars of today, and I would especially recommend it to anyone raising young girls. The book is firmly rooted in reality and gives so much more context to the sexual revolution and culture wars of the last 40 years than anything you’re getting from your Facebook newsfeed today.

Ashley's message is this: men and women are different, biological sex is real, and embracing and understanding that difference is what gives us the ability to work toward real, authentic equality for women. The book is more than bathroom policies at Target. It is thoughtful, grounded in careful research, and easy to read. Read it even if (especially if) you’ve made up your mind on the gender issues of today. Our daughters and sons deserve to know the whole story.

5.0 out of 5 stars A One-Size-Fits-All Approach Hurts Women and This Book Shows Why
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2017
Verified Purchase
The modern feminist movement has gotten it all wrong.

We thought that the way for women to get ourselves some respect was to insist that we be treated exactly the same as men.

But it turns out, this puts a far greater burden on us than we ever dreamed.

An attempt to treat the sexes exactly the same ends up being not androgynous, but rather an attempt make women be and function exactly like men.

This leads to women being thought of as - and feeling - inferior when we can't keep up the same physical pace as men, or when we interrupt our careers to have children, or when we want to raise those children ourselves rather than doing something else with our adult years, or when we experience the mood swings, sensitivity, and depression that come with hormones that come with the unique design of our bodies.

It leads to insanities like ... asking a mother of toddlers to go to war. Refusing to give a pregnant woman a seat on the bus because "she chose to get pregnant." Asking college women to behave like drunken frat brothers and then acting surprised when they get raped. And on and on and on. The "men and women are exactly the same" movement has a lot to answer for.

McGuire, who used to buy into this movement herself, lays out these and many other, very depressing examples and gives us a little bit of analysis about how the "we are exactly the same" philosophy has led to them. The book is alarming and, as I said, depressing, but I have given it five stars because everyone ought to read it. The claim that "gender is a fluid concept" is actually an anti-woman claim, because it denies the unique things about being a woman, the unique vulnerabilities that come with that, and the, yes, special treatment that we, as a society, ought to resume giving that half of the population whose biology makes us uniquely vulnerable.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lot of statistics and reference to studies
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2017
Verified Purchase
Was an impressively researched book, but overall it wasn't very engaging to me. In fact, the book was almost entirely research. Just study after study after study. Personally, I found it a bit tiresome? I bought the book because I already agreed with the premise (that our culture is trying to eradicate traditional male and female roles). I would venture to guess that most people who buy the book are already in agreement with said premise, so this majority faction doesn't necessarily need as many studies as possible to convince us that this is the case. I already was well aware, for example, that certain stores made a push to make children's toys genderless and not label any toys 'for girls' or 'for boys'. I wanted a little bit more cultural commentary than just a really long study if I'm honest. But these are all MY subjective thoughts, so if you're someone that really likes digging into statistics and you like the cold, hard facts rather than hearing more of the personal thoughts of the author then by all means you'd probably really like this book. It has excellent reviews already so that should say something.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a thinker!
Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2021
Verified Purchase
I’m in love with this book! Even if you fall more on a leftists point of view on gender fluidity and how our society is shifting to better adapt to those few individuals choices, this book helps you fully process the two sexes differences scientifically. Women and men are both built and wired differently. It’s science. I also love how it focuses on how our shift in society to revolve more around these 70 to 90 different genders, is causing one sex to slowly become extinct in the way it gives to humanity and society and how it’s viewed, the female sex. I wish it would delve into the individuals who went through being transgender and regretted it, but maybe it still will since I still have about 1/3 of it left to go.

3.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing and frustrating in equal measure
Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2017
Verified Purchase
First off, I will say that I agree with the author insofar as modern society seems to be jettisoning the concept of biological sex. I admit that transgender people are not people I completely understand. However, because of what appears to be a fundamental difference in how I see human nature, I don't necessarily agree with all of the implications that are drawn in this book. Being somewhat of an optimist at heart and not having the stain of religion, I believe that we as humans have the responsibility to transcend whatever biological tendencies we may (or may not) have. The central issue at stake is one that is never addressed by the author: that people are deserving of respect no matter who they are, irregardless of sexual proclivities. If people actually lived up to that, then maybe there wouldn't be so many sad cases as described within these pages. Still, despite not agreeing with the author at many points, I feel like the book is important and should be read. If nothing else, it provides much food for thought.

This is well written. The arguments were presented succinctly.
I hope this discussion get taken further. As a man I always thought the modern male expectations of today’s society were ridiculous. I just rejected those parts of them as I saw fit - bugger that for a joke! I didn’t think many women thought they had the same option for rejecting the female expectations they didn’t like.
