Helen Joyce: how gender ideology gripped the West

On this episode, we tackle one of the most contested—and consequential—issues in public life: the rise of gender ideology and the erasure of biological sex. Over the past decade, the idea that gender is self-declared and disconnected from biology has reshaped our laws, schools, medical systems, and public discourse. But there’s growing pushback. In the United Kingdom, we’ve seen a remarkable reversal against this institutional capture. The shift has come through court challenges, investigative journalism, and public inquiry. To unpack this, Helen Joyce—journalist, editor, and author of Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality—joins the podcast. Joyce is currently the Director of Advocacy for Sex Matters, a U.K.-based organization that promotes clarity about sex in law and policy. Helen has been at the forefront of efforts in the U.K. to reinstate biological reality in public policy—and she’s helped shape the international conversation.
