“In the past it was well-established, well-known to most people that there’s a very wide range of characters of men and women and it didn’t mean that because you were not a typical man or typical woman you were the wrong sex. That’s to say that there’s only one kind of stereotyped male and stereotyped female and anyone else needs to swap boxes. There are occasional individuals who have a very, very strong feeling that they need to have a sex change. But what’s happened recently is this idea that has run wild with damaging consequences, I think.”

Rebel Wisdom Sep 23, 2022 Iain McGilchrist has been outlining for many years that a fundamental problem in the way we are perceiving the world is likely to lead us into trouble. Now in 2022 he believes the situation is reaching a crucial turning point and we need to wake up urgently. In this conversation with Rebel Wisdom’s David Fuller he talks about how our current culture’s domination by a ‘left brain’, reductionistic, materialist and literalist perspective had reached crisis point. He explains how this is manifesting as a ‘war on reality’, and a series of attacks on free speech. Iain’s work can be found here: https://channelmcgilchrist.com/
