Cracked Ivory

The Parent Trap. Shrier's 'Irreversible Damage'

17 Dec 2025

Description

In this very special episode of Cracked Ivory, Emma traps Talia and Lucy Kartikasari (she/they/he, luckartikasari on TikTok) on a call and subjects them to Abigail Shrier's opinions on transition, teenage sex, and race. Irreversible Damage is a fear-mongering screed combined with a how-to child abuse guide aimed at the parents of young trans children, a manifesto stating plain that children owe their parents not merely their lives and future earnings, but their very bodies and sex, neither of which can be tampered with under the heterosexual regime. We examine how this misbegotten suburban tantrum dehumanizes trans and detrans people alike, treating us as surgically mutilated sterile wretches rather than humans with dignity and free will.The most distasteful part of the episode starts at 54:09 and ends at 1:00:56.Sources:Abigail Shrier, Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Crazy Seducing Our Daughters, 2021Talia Bhatt, 'Racebending' and 'Womanface': Discussing Social ConstructsContact usSupport the showFind more of Talia at taliabhatt.com Find more of Emma at dolphindiaires.carrd.co
