With all our recent discussion on Skrmetti, and questions of scrutiny as applied to gender dysphoric individuals, the question of where women’s rights stand in this morass deserves new attention. Professor Jill Hasday has written an important book, We the Men, which is deeply relevant to these discussions. To what extent does inequality persist in the law? When Courts seek to answer this question, they often cite the great progress that has been made. Professor Hasday hypothesizes that this very celebration of progress tends to obscure the remaining issues, and may in a sense pre-empt the scrutiny required. The echoes of Skrmetti are profound, and Professor Hasday joins us for a lively discussion of these issues and many others - including that recent bugaboo, the Geduldig case, which rears its ugly head once again.
