They work on feminist and LGBTQ philosophy\, with a focus on what gender is and how it shapes social outcomes\, experiences\, and ways of knowing. Dembroff’s current book project\, Real Men on Top: How Patriarchy Weaponizes Gender\, is under contract with Oxford University Press\, with a planned release in 2024. Their work has been published in professional journals spanning three disciplines\, and appears in popular venues including Scientific American\, The Boston Review\, TIME\, The Guardian\, and The New York Review of Books. In 2019\, Dembroff co-authored an amicus brief in support of gay and transgender employees\, which was submitted to the United States Supreme Court on behalf of over seventy philosophy professors. They have given over a dozen keynotes and named lectures\, and will be a panelist for the 2023 Tanner Lecture on Human Values at the University of Michigan. In 2022\, Britannica named Dembroff one of twenty “shapers of the future” under 40 in academia and ideas. \nThese are the activities with Professor Dembroff \nThe Inaugural 58Թ Institute for Gender Studies Lecture   \nApril 18\, 4pm-6pm\, St Salvator’s Quad School II  \n‘Real Men on Top’  \nAbstract: Most people think that patriarchy is a matter of men versus women. Patriarchy is widely understood as a system that works to privilege men while subordinating women. In this talk\, Dembroff offers an alternative paradigm. Through this paradigm\, patriarchy is not taken to privilege men in general. Instead\, patriarchy is seen as reproducing the wealth and influence of men who conform to society’s most highly valued stereotypes of manhood. Patriarchy puts these “Real Men” on top.  \nArché Feminist Philosophy and Social Theory Seminar   \nApril 19\, 3pm-5pm\, Edgecliffe G03  \n‘Reimagining Transgender’  \nAbstract: ‘Transgender’ often is understood either as the name of an identity\, or else as a term covering the full spectrum of gender nonconformity. In “Reimagining Transgender”\, Dembroff advocates for recentering our understanding of ‘transgender’ on the experience of costly and willful gender deviance.  \n 58Թ Institute for Gender Studies Graduate Student Masterclass   \nApril 20\, 11am-2pm\, Old Burgh School Lumsden Room  \n‘The Metaphysics of Injustice’  \nAbstract: Patriarchy and white supremacy are unjust social systems\, constituted by social practices that produce systemic gender injustice and racial injustice. Intersectional theory highlights that these forms of injustice are inseparable\, but what does this mean? In this paper\, Dembroff suggests that intersectional injustice is best explained by the overlap of unjust systems\, or when unjust systems are co-constituted. They argue that\, despite this overlap\, unjust systems can be individuated in terms of their essential ideologies.   \nThis masterclass is registration only. Places are still available\, so to register please email the organiser: Dr Jade Fletcher jef1@st-andrews.ac.uk. Lunch will be provided. \nTweet URL:/philevents/event/professor-robin-dembroff-will-be-visiting-the-institute-in-april-2023/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe 104\, University of 58Թ\, 58Թ\, United Kingdom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230418T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230418T180000 DTSTAMP:20260615T083527 CREATED:20230223T155622Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230418T182445Z UID:10001687-1681833600-1681840800@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Lecture – details to follow DESCRIPTION:Tweet\nTweet URL:/philevents/event/lecture-details-to-follow/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe 104\, University of 58Թ\, 58Թ\, United Kingdom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230419T130000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230419T140000 DTSTAMP:20260615T083527 CREATED:20230413T142711Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230419T143809Z UID:10001692-1681909200-1681912800@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Special MPRG – Bart Streumer (Groningen) DESCRIPTION:Location: Edgecliffe G03 \nTitle: QUASI-REALISM FOR REALISTS \nAbstract: Reductive realists think that normative properties are identical to descriptive properties. But they are often charged with being relativists: it is often argued that their view implies that when two people make conflicting normative judgements\, these judgements can both be true. I will argue that reductive realists can answer this charge by copying the quasi-realist moves that many expressivists make. \nIn §1 I will outline the two main versions of realism\, reductive realism and robust realism\, and I will explain why reductive realists are often charged with being relativists. In §2 I will outline the quasi-realist moves that many expressivists make. In §3 I will argue that if these moves work\, reductive realists can copy them in order to answer the charge that they are relativists. In §4 I will discuss the assumptions behind these moves. In §5 I will discuss robust realists’ doubts about these moves. In §6 I will show that if my arguments are sound\, expressivism is closer to relativism than is often assumed.

To avoid making their view indistinguishable from realism\, however\, they usually stop short of saying everything realists say. Many realists therefore think that something important is missing from quasi-realism. I will argue that quasi-realists can undermine this thought by defending a version of quasi-realism that I will call super-quasi-realism. This version seems indistinguishable from realism\, but I will argue that this is a mistaken impression that arises because we cannot believe super-quasi-realism.
