His book translated in more than 20 languages. Douglas is a regular contributor to National Review and has been a columnist for Standpoint magazine. In this book, Murray does an excellent job of outlining different points of view. He covers four identities that are gay, women, Trans, and race.
His basic point is that homosexuality is complex. Before covering women, Murray forcefully outlines the socialist foundations of identity politics and intersectionality. Then we get an equally complex analysis of women in society, including a rejection of the idea that power is unitary or easy to understand, and the actual war on men. In addition, Murray moves on to race and covers all the laughable recent horrors of the racial hucksters. His goal is to clear a path to reasoned discussion, with an explicit reference to the mine-clearing technology when an explosive rope is shot across a minefield and detonated to clear a path. To know about further, then read this best-selling book.
