Long time lurker and skeptic here. I'd just like to correct a few points raised earlier about so-called Elevatorgate. This is a reference to the fall out to Rebecca Watson's embarrassing encounter in an elevator at a skeptic conference.
Firstly, there was no harassment in the lift, horrific or otherwise. Watson never claimed that there was. She had an awkward encounter with some nerd who invited her for coffeee. She turned him down and that was it. Later she chose to raise the matter in her address to the conference. Her comment on the incident was 'Guy's, don't do that.' The fall out over the matter was about the amount of discussion that followed online afterwards. There was certainly some mysogyny in that but there was no 'horrific' elevator incident and Watson never claimed there was.
Secondly Watson isn't gender critical, she's trans inclusive. She has written extensively in support of transwomen, access to changing rooms, etc.
Thirdly she's part of the same identitarian axis as Danielle Muscato. A few years back when Mark Schierbecker, the autistic student assaulted by lecturer Melissa Click for refusing to stop filming at a protest on a US campus, appeared as a guest at a skeptic conference, Muscato, who was supposed to be representing Schierbecker as his PR agent, turned on his own client in front of the audience and forced him to publicly apologise for his 'white privilege' (presumably being autistic doesn't cancel out his whiteness), at which point Schierbecker was reduced to tears (ironically Schierbecker later transitioned himself).
Watson was one of the prime movers in the shaming campaign that followed this incident, which is when I became aware of both her and Muscato. Although I am a skeptic I am not involved in US skepticism. My interest is in neurodiversity. It was the hate campaign she participated in against a young Aspie that drew my attention to her.
