Abstract:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This article responds to claims advanced by \u201cgender critical\u201d feminists, most recently expressed in a criminological context by Burt (2020) in\u00a0Feminist Criminology,<\/i>\u00a0that the Equality Act\u2014a bill pending in the United States Congress\u2014would place cisgender women at risk of male violence in sex-segregated spaces. We provide legal history, empirical research, and conceptual and theoretical arguments to highlight three broad errors made by Burt and other trans-exclusionary feminists. These include: (1) a misinterpretation of the Equality Act; (2) a narrow version of feminism that embraces a socially and biologically deterministic view of sex and gender; and (3) ignorance and dismissal of established criminological knowledge regarding victimization, offending patterns, and effective measures to enhance safety. The implications of \u201cgender critical\u201d arguments for criminology, and the publication of such, are also discussed.<\/p>\n
