Julie Bindel: Lesbians – where are we now?

<div>My guest on this week’s <em>Book Club</em> podcast is the writer, activist and <em>Spectator</em> contributor Julie Bindel. In her new book <em>Lesbians: Where Are We Now?</em>, Julie asks why lesbian liberation seems – as she sees it – to have taken one step forward and two steps back. She traces the history of lesbian activism, explains why we’re wrong to assume that lesbians and gay men are natural allies, confronts the ‘progressive’ misogyny she identifies in a younger generation – and tells me whether she thinks the Supreme Court’s recent decision marks an end to the trans wars.</div><p>Become a <em>Spectator </em>subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
