Welcome to the weekly Fairer Disputations round-up: your one-stop shop for the best in sex-realist feminism. This week: Katherine Dee on Snapchat and sextortion, Lyman Stone and Brad Wilcox on why Elon Musk’s high tech polygamy is a dead end, and Stephanie M. Murray on Aella’s most controversial tweet. Plus: double standards of surrogacy, gender-critical women and empathy, human after all, newborn bonuses and family policy—and more!
First, Featured Author Katherine Dee discusses the internet sextortion that often targets minors—and suggests that the only path forward may be drastic.
Next, Lyman Stone and Brad Wilcox make the case for a pronatalism that is radically distinct from Elon Musk’s tech-driven quest to have children with many women.
Finally, Featured Author Stephanie Murray argues that AI-generated child porn would stunt men’s capacity to be good fathers.
