    • 2015 April 17, David Dobbs, “‘Galileo’s Middle Finger,’ by Alice Dreger”, in The New York Times‎[1], archived from the original on 18 April 2015:
      “Galileo’s Middle Finger” is many things: a rant, a manifesto, a treasury of evocative new terms (sissyphobia, autogynephilia, phall-o-meter) and an account of the author’s transformation “from an activist going after establishment scientists into an aide-de-camp to scientists who found themselves the target of activists like me” — and back again.
