Leslie Corbly

  • Author of Progressive Prejudice: Exposing the Devouring Mother, and Silent Suffering: Poems of Pain and Purpose.
  • Attorney advocating for fathers’ rights in divorce.
  • An anti-feminist challenging liberal feminists’ inconsistent messaging that protects female perpetrators of violence and commodifies children.

Leslie Corbly is an attorney, author, poet, political commentator, and columnist. Her
multidisciplinary background includes journalism, legislative advocacy, constitutional research,
and political/cultural commentary.

Leslie has a unique ability to blend the analytic and emotive challenges the heart of progressive dogma,
exposing the exploitative tactics that hide behind the virtuous veneer of “tolerance,” “kindness,”
and “love.”

A rising voice in the conservative movement, Leslie has been publishing extensively in opposition to the
left’s moral and ethical social vision. Her writing focuses heavily on a critique of liberal
feminism because of the widespread – yet largely ignored – problems that arise when female
perpetrated violence is socially and culturally normalized. While “toxic masculinity” receives
wall to wall press coverage, understanding how women can perpetuate abuse receives virtually no airtime. Why is that?

Despite the devastating consequences of female abuse – from abortion to the disturbing rise of
transgenderism in youth – the ways in which women engage in relational exploitation, abuse, and
manipulation remains a taboo topic. This presumption of female “Moral purity” actually strips women of
their agency and silences those who were abused by female caretakers – since these women exercise enormous relational power over vulnerable victims.

In her talks, Leslie draws on personal experience to make her keynotes intimately compelling and inspirational.

As a rule, a Leslie Corbly keynote presentation appeals to a variety of audiences, and, because of her extensive knowledge of law, policy, culture, and politics – her keynotes are highly customizable.

Women as Divine Tyrants

A woman’s “right” to create and kill or create and nurture children defines feminism. Because
liberal feminism believes the ability to birth or kill human beings is a human right, children are
taught their existence – and corresponding human dignity – is determined exclusively by their
mother’s beliefs and desires.

Leslie learned this lesson the hard way by growing up with an unorthodox and truly shocking maternal nickname: half-aborted. This was the first word she learned and, from an early age, Leslie knew that children, according to modern feminism, are the “products of conception,” i.e. the property of their maternal creators. One can imagine how this might affect a child or teen!

But:

While Leslie’s personal story is tragic, it is important to hear and it’s culturally relevant, because millions exist under the weight of this kind of feminist tyranny. The 20th century gave rise to this sex based right to violence, otherwise known as abortion. And, for over fifty years US society and culture existed where this form of sexism was legally defined as a constitutional right.

Leslie’s goal with this keynote is to help audiences understand how the dehumanization of
children has led to the widespread view that women, particularly mothers, do not abuse children.
Instead, they own human beings until they are born. This viewpoint is expressed throughout
society, evidenced by how culture approaches issues like IVF and surrogacy. While there are
many voices speaking against the unethical practices of these industries, few are willing to
critique the underlying issue that allows these social ills to persist.

Biography

In 2024, Leslie published her first book, a collection of analytic poems critiquing the predicates
of postmodern/progressive thought by highlighting those – including victims of abortion – who
live under the weight of leftist cultural oppression.


Her latest book, scheduled for release in October 2025, titled Progressive Prejudice: Exposing
the Devouring Mother
, explores how left wing, pro-choice culture protects abusive mothers by
explicitly and implicitly telling children they are unequal to their mothers. Progressive Prejudice
masterfully combines Leslie’s personal experiences with cultural, political, and social
commentary, showing how liberal feminist ideals silence and shame vulnerable, unwanted
children.


Leslie currently practices law, specializing in fathers’ rights in divorce. She also advocates for
the rights of children to be protected against female perpetrators of abuse, and critiques leftist
politics and thought.


Leslie attended the University of Oklahoma where she graduated Phi Beta Kappa with a B.A. in
Journalism in 2015. She earned her Juris Doctorate from the University of Oklahoma College of
Law in 2019. She is licensed to practice law in Oklahoma, Tennessee, Arizona, and Utah. Leslie
has practiced bankruptcy, lobbied for digital privacy, and advocated for protecting constitutional
rights.


Leslie is an alumnus of numerous prestigious fellowships, including the Mercatus Center’s Frederic
Bastiat Fellowship and the American Institute for Economic Research’s Visiting Fellowship.
Through her extensive public advocacy, Leslie makes routine appearances on podcast, radio, and
broadcast shows, discussing culture, politics, legal, and social issues.

Leslie was born in Georgia, raised in Oklahoma, and now calls Utah her home.
