TERF Statement

The TERF (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist) Community is not welcome on JUDAS. None of our writers will ever publish anything reflecting TERF or Transphobic views, and we at JUDAS will always work against the interests of the TERFs. We promise that, should any questions surface about the stances of our staff on the topic of Trans people, such an incident will be investigated and punished with no mercy. JUDAS is no place for transphobia and works to be a space for all queer people and the LGBTQIA+ community's allies.

An Argument for Barbie's Feminism

Barbie is almost always criticized by feminists, who claim that Barbie exemplifies the kind of compulsory heterosexuality, white imperialism, and oppressive patriarchy that feminists so hate. These claims aren't just based on suppositions, but more so on the heap of ethnographic research conducted amongst Mattel's consumers.  Barbie is a household name, having been a computer engineer, astronaut, rockstar, doctor, and even a presidential candidate. Over the last few years, Mattel has given Barbie a woke new makeover fit for the 21st century. I don't doubt for even a second that Mattel's re-invigoration of Barbie is motivated by anything but a consumerist need for more profit, but that doesn't mean that she isn't a feminist. One can have skewed motivations for their feminism, whilst still existing in a space that benefits and benefits and uplifts women. One of their latest adverts really does exemplify Mattel's newfound liberalism - and pulls on my heartstrin...

Churches, Charnel Houses, and Catholic Repentance

So, in the 17th Century, the Portuguese were really into God. This meant that people were also really into being buried at their local church, cathedral, or other Christian-flavored places of worship. Over time, these place's cemeteries became full of bodies, and most churches resorted to stuffing skeletons behind the walls, underneath the floorboards, or just deeper into the cemetery. This meant that after a while, Iberian churches were just absolutely full of bodies, which wasn't exactly sustainable. Skeletons aren't exactly known for being that decomposable, even if their flesh vanishes pretty quickly, which led to churches literally overflowing with bones. During times of disasters and plague, churches would have to bury thousands of bodies at once, which left little room for other bodies.  The solution for this, the Portuguese Catholic establishment concluded, was bone houses, which became charnels in English. They're also known as Ossuaries in Latin, from the Lati...

Subtle Misinformation: The Joys of Modern Transphobia

Hatred isn't a feeling I'm often attracted to, but when reading the disgusting, transphobic, hateful rhetoric of J.K. Rowling, Helen Joyce, and Germaine Greer it's hard not to reflect a little of the hate they radiate.  I was watching a clip from the British TV show Good Morning Britain , ironically this evening, in which the presenters (Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid) are discussing J.K. Rowling's (at the time) new, allegedly transphobic, tweet, which read: 'People who menstruate.' I'm sure there used to be a word foor those people. Somebody help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woodmud? Isn't that a jolly little thing to laugh about! J.K. has observed that the woke left is using accurate terminology for, literally, people who menstruate, and she's decided that's bad because she's a transphobe. Anyways they've invited fellow bigot, Professor Kathleen Stock to speak on the issue, captioned as an 'Author and philosopher, University of Sussex....
