> she appears to identify as trans herself no, she doesn't. she's a cis-gendered lesbian. she was born female and still identifies as female nor has she ever done otherwise as far as I know. I'm surprised its your first time hearing about Camille Paglia though. She's moderately famous (in my circles anyway). Has been stirring the pot in the academia/inteligentisa scene for decades now. She's a very iconoclastic and contrarian thinker and has made enemies on both the left and the right. Her ideas are fairly deep and well thought out though and a lot of the controversy she finds herself in is basically the media trolling their audience with inflammatory out-of-context quotations. Not to say Paglia isn't sometimes deliberately inflammatory. She can light it up with the best of them.
