I appreciate what you are trying to do here, but I don't see how it cannot be an ad hominen attack. What she says is "you can't not believe what this author is writing because of who she is" which is an ad hominen attack. She did not engage with the author's argument in anyway, and only dismisses it based on who the author is. Which is too bad since I would think, perhaps wrongly, that laurelai would appreciate a book about intersectionality, and how interest organizations constantly try to frame advantaged group issues as being universal, while ignoring disadvantaged group issues.ignore the person who lives the reality as opposed to the cis woman with privilege
