I find it interesting that so many commenters here have reacted to this female-centered perspective with such knee-jerk emotion, throwing around accusations of bigotry rather than engaging intellectually with this feminist viewpoint.
At least there was one commenter who approached the issue with intellectual curiosity, marvelling at a point of view he'd never before encountered, and on that basis I consider this article having been well worth posting.

I think you may find this article of interest, it's a decent backgrounder to this point of view, and hopefully gives insight into why many left-leaning feminist women have adopted this view or are moving towards it:

Holly Lawford-Smith's book Gender-Critical Feminism expands on this in much detail. Kara Dansky's book, that you cited, is an enlightening read too, with more of a focus on US law and politics, as her linked blog post is. If you would prefer a more philosophical treatment of this topic, may I also recommend Kathleen Stock's work Material Girls.
