Wendy McElroy

Wendy McElroy (born 1951) is a Canadian individualist feminist and voluntaryist[citation needed] writer.

[1] McElroy is the author of the book Rape Culture Hysteria, in which she contends that rape culture is a result of popular hysteria to the disadvantage of men, and in particular, white men.

[2][3][4] In November 2014, McElroy was scheduled to debate Jessica Valenti at a Brown University Janus Forum debate on "How Should Colleges Handle Sexual Assault?".

Before the debate, Brown President Christina Paxson sent out a campus-wide e-mail saying she disagreed with McElroy's views, and set up an alternative event at the same time to compete with the debate.

[5][6] The actions of Brown students and Paxson were criticized by various commentators.
