I was quite surprised to see the level of respect this film had for the subjects, at many points reflecting on the sympathy for children suffering with gender identity.
I think what I appreciated most was that these weren't trick questions, the presenter asked very basic and honest questions - the fact that a univeristy professor was unable to answer simple questions in his own field was very telling. It was a running theme that those who wanted honest discussions were being shut down, lose their careers and even faced imprisonment.
Speaking with an African tribe was also an interesting juxtaposition of societal ideals.
My one criticism is that I wish he had not been able to open the jar of pickles.

I'm a Democratic voter but this is a genius documentary
I voted Democrat in 2008, 2012, 2016 and I gotta say that this really makes you wonder what is going on academia, whether professors are failing to teach Classics, Classical Philosophy, logic/rationality, critical thinking, and Biology 101. These gender ideologues seem to base their ideas on things they found on blogs rather than textbooks and actual scientific literature.
There were folks were being deceptive about puberty blockers as if puberty can just be resumed in your 20s or 30s or even 40s without serious health issues. People need to speak up professionally against this and see the truth is being overrun by these ideas.
The documentary is a golden example of the Socrates Method which any educated person would recognize and commend Matt Walsh for and for staying in character to ask simple inquisitive questions that investigative journalists should have already asked long ago but were too afraid of being labeled a "phobe" or "prejudiced" or something.

Just watch it.
An incredibly important and insightful documentary for our time and surprisingly funny at times.
Highly recommended to anyone who is interested in the topic and wants to learn more about how gender has become politicized including what different people from various fields and communities have to say from both sides of the discussion. 10/10.
This guy is one of the few people who are not afraid to speak freely, and he doesn't follow every stupid idea people say.
The idiocy is that this is even being discussed.
just man and famale
I support (real) trans people but turning language and reality upside-down for 0.1% of the population crosses too many lines for me. But the trenders and the pronoun warriors just need to gtfo asap. Also GRS is horrible and nobody should be expected to do it.
A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk, have at you!
Proof that having a beard and a camera doesn't make you smart...poor scared Matt Walsh.
Pffft, "what's a woman"? I'M a woman, I do have a sack of balls and a peenus afterall.
great documentary and the patients are truely running the asylum and they couldn't even answer basic questions. I feel sorry for this generation.
Great documentary. Matt Walsh has balls the size of watermelons. Anyone know where I can get the focus group video that goes along with this doc?
Superb documentary. It is very disturbing that some medical professionalism are totally delusional and belong in an asylum, but are practicing on children!
The world's gone crazy, and the lunatics are running the asylum.
Definitely well worth watching. Download and protect your copied file. The way things are going this documentary could end up banned.
it all makes sense now. these people are completely insane.
absolutely brilliant, really gets to the point.
Why does this even take a documentary to answer this question. You learn the difference between men and women almost the second you are born. A woman is the person who breast feeds you. My son never tried to suck my tit to get a drink of milk.
Spoiler: A woman is an adult human female, a human being with 2 X Chromosomes. Accept no substitutes!
Finally someone has the courage to expose the insanity, the madness, the absolute nonsense of this "gender ideology" (WTF that means). We MUST fight it. We NEED to fight it. They are pushing it on our children, on our kids. If we don 't stop this indoctrination process, the world will fall in the hands of a generation of confused, distracted, soft, weak, and misguided beings who really believe that masculinity is toxic, that virility is morbid, that all men ar rapists, and that the Force is female...
Great movie! Watch it!
A biased film whose only purpose is to promoter an transphobic agenda.
Your chromosomes decide your gender. Nothing else. You can demand to be called whatever you want, it's on the other person's kindness if that person will accept that or not. I find it increasingly disturbing when we're forced to accept something we don't agree with. A guy with a moustache tried doing that somewhere at the start of 2/3 of 20th century. Whenever someone is forced to do something they don't want to, it's wrong.
@petitvelo you're so right they're very sick demented people who actually know that they are men. Nobody's born that way women in mens bodies and men in womens bodies or minds. If i should find anyone of those hideous things near my child or trying to brainwash my that they are normal i would hunt them down believe me our planet is not that big.
Watched this doc the other night - very entertaining and also upsetting at the absolute disconnect from reality half of our country is experiencing. Highly recommended.
of course these people know what a woman is. Theyre just too afraid to say it because they know their lives will be destroyed by angry white males in dresses.
bring back insane asylums
It's on par with "No Safe Spaces" once it gets rid of the Daily Show style interviews that are gotcha moments. The funny thing is that the guy looks like a typical reporter for Vice and has a hipster look. It's okay, but funny how women can't say what they are out of fear of public scrutiny.
What is a woman? Calling yourself a woman when you have a beard and a d**k doesn't make you a woman. Sorry woke snowflakes and antifas but gender is biological, not sociological.
the US needs to do more to care for its mentally ill.
Wearing a dress and pigtails doesn't make you a woman.
Very much interested in this theme, thanks for sharin', downloaded it already! :)
Ring wingers are such pussies lol
