About this listen
In Feminism Against Progress, Mary Harrington argues that the industrial-era faith in progress is turning against all but a tiny elite of women. Women's liberation was less the result of human moral progress than an effect of the material consequences of the Industrial Revolution. We've now left the industrial era for the age of AI, biotech and all-pervasive computing. As a result, technology is liberating us from natural limits and embodied sex differences. Although this shift benefits a small class of successful professional women, it also makes it easier to commodify women's bodies, human intimacy and female reproductive abilities.
This is a stark warning against a dystopian future whereby poor women become little more than convenient sources of body parts to be harvested and wombs to be rented by the rich. Progress has now stopped benefiting the majority of women, and only a feminism that is sceptical of it can truly defend female interests in the 21st century.

A must read for self proclaimed feminists and beneficial for most
I do wish modern day feminists would listen/read this or just be exposed to some of Mary’s key points.
Although it is niche literature, it addresses so many factors and nuances that effect most of our daily lives by using some critical thinking but constantly just common sense. There are many parts that may register as salient points when listening but they are truly rarely thought of, this book is made up of these important reminders and new eye-opening insights.

The tragic truth.
As a long-time consumer of "Red Pill content" from the Manosphere, I can say without a doubt that this is the best thing yet written on the train wreck that is modern male-female relations. It's the full story, free of bias, viewed from both sides. She absolutely nailed it.

A call to arms!
I've been listening to Mary discuss her book and ideas on several podcasts / YouTube so it was good to hear the whole book. Her case for Reactionary Feminism is sound and I couldn't agree more. Make feminism for women again! 😘

Brutal Truths
Mary is wielding some brutal truths. As a male, some of them very uncomfortable to hear. I don’t know whether I feel liberated or deeply shamed. A good portion of both most likely.
A must for anyone feeling sexual discontent in the digital age.
