2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Women's Action Network (WAN) and transphobia[edit]

Women's Action Network (WAN), a feminist organization led by Ueno Chizuko once published a transphobic article and many trans activists boycotted WAN in respose to that. Furthermore, Senda Yuki, a board member of the WAN, translated Sheila Jeffreys' anti-trans book into Japanese. Despite being the head of the WAN, she made no statement about those criticisms.

Muta Kazue, another board member of the WAN, defended TERF and claimed "Trancel isn't a slur". Spicyemerald (talk) 08:28, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
