When people decide to ignore and redefine away the created order in which God has placed them, problems arise in all kinds of interesting places. Kevin Staley-Joyce observes, "While the earlier generation of feminists accepted psychological
identity as integrated with bodily form, today’s feminists are
increasingly strict mind-body dualists, holding that the mind alone
determines gender—a ghost in the body’s machine." Nonetheless a fascinating situation has developed at Smith College that illustrates how difficult it is for feminists to embrace this when it involves a "transgender woman."
