Magdalen Berns (6 May 1983 – 13 September 2019)[4] was a British YouTuber. Berns, a lesbian radical feminist, became known for her series of YouTube vlogs in the late 2010s concerning topics such as women's rights[2][8] and gender identity.[9][10] She co-founded the non-profit organisation For Women Scotland,[11][12] which campaigns against possible changes to the Gender Recognition Act 2004, among other things. Some transgender rights activists characterised her vlogs as being transphobic[13] and Berns as a TERF.[14][15][16]
