What Is a Woman? is a 2022 American anti-transgender propaganda piece distributed online by conservative media outlet The Daily Wire.

Hosted by anti-trans extremist Matt Walsh, the film was released to subscribers in June 2022, soon followed by a companion book, What Is a Woman?: One Man’s Journey to Answer the Question of a Generation.

Background

Walsh and the project’s producers created an anti-transgender front group called The Gender Unity Project in order to lure trans participants in under false pretenses. Using the name Makenna Lynn, Daily Wire associate producer Makenna Waters would contact potential interviewees. Associate Rebecca Dobkowitz also contacted people using a false name.

People who said they were contacted include MMA fighters Fallon Fox and Alanna McLaughlin, Miss Nevada USA winner Kataluna Enriquez, and Debi Jackson, parent to trans youth Avery Jackson.

Trans activist Eli Erlick revealed the scam in February 2022. The Gender Unity Project site was registered in 2021 to Justin Folk of Project Veritas.

The film was produced by Justin Folk, Dallas Sonnier, and Charlotte Roland. Folk directed.

Overview

On-camera interviews include:

Others who appear in the film include Don Sucher, Rodrigo Lehtinen, Naia Ōkami, and Carl Trueman.

What Is a Woman?

The Northwestern Chronicle is a conservative student media organization at Northwestern University, published sporadically since 1992.

Background

Its favorable coverage of J. Michael Bailey under editor Robert VerBruggen included actionable libel published about me, later retracted.

Founded in the spring of 1992, The Chronicle was “derecognized” in 1998 by the student government. It later won the right to publish.

VerBruggen editorship

In 2005, VerBruggen allowed Bailey to publish an article about himself and various controversies, claiming he is a victim of “academic McCarthyism.” Bailey included several related items, including one by transgender troll Willow Arune. Arune’s incompetent cyberstalking of me led Arune to claim that I had filed bankruptcy and lied about having a master’s degree. Arune had made these false claims on USENET, but VerBruggen was the first to let Arune make them in an edited publication. After a lot of correspondence, I finally got VerBruggen to retract all the actionable libel about me in the publication he edited.

After VerBruggen

Bailey and VerBruggen were removed from the masthead in 2007. Its last print edition was in 2011. It was dormant for several years before returning at a new domain in 2016 to 2017.
