Democrats: ‘Cruel and Unscientific’ to Define Legal Sex by Biology
Breitbart ^ | 11 Nov 2018 | Neil Munro

Posted on 11/12/2018 7:21:51 AM PST by Mr. Mojo

It is “cruel and unscientific” to define a person’s legal sex by their biology, says a complaint signed by 98 Democratic House legislators.

The Democrats’ statement was sent to President Donald Trump’s administration as the New York Times has reported that the administration will formally clarify that the sex of people involved in sex-discrimination legal fights will be based on their male or female body.

Trump’s biology-determines-sex policy “makes it clear that members of this administration are willing to … solidify an archaic, dogmatic, and alarming view of the world,” the Democrats complain their letter to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

The Democrats instead want government agencies to let people define their legal sex by declaring their internal feeling of male or female “gender identity,” regardless of their male or female body and biology.

Get that? In the progressive weltanschauung: DNA = unscientific; "internal feeling" = scientific.

Sooo... it’s unscientific to use science to make an argument. I’m feeling a catch-22 here somewhere.

That’s how they feel about “climate” too.

Your comment is almost verbatim to what I was going to say. Great minds...

Not quite sure how much longer this bullshit parade can go on with the left. Are regular Americans ever going to stand up to them, or are we going to be fed into the paper shredder of history for being too complacent?

This is what they mean by the word "morality" they have been bandying about lately. Not ending the murder of the unborn. Not ending the looting of the productive to subsidize the non-productive. Not ending the theft of every election that isn't personally guarded by the US Marines. No, those things apparently have nothing to do with morality. But elevating unnatural sexual fantasies to the level of scientific fact - that is the morality they are trying to force upon America. And that is the implicit bribe they are offering: "You can have all of this, as long as you let us control every other aspect of your existence."

It’s “unscientific” to use basic biology, but it is “scientific” to use obviously flawed computer models........

In other news Congressional Dems have introduced a bill to ban the term “sexual organs” since they have no relevance to gender /s

"Archaic" in the sense of "traditional," "time-honored," or "tried-and-true?" Bring it on!

"Dogmatic" in the sense of "objective" and "unambiguous?" Bring it on!

But how is it at all "alarming?" I, myself, find it rather calming.

Trump is probably the only one with the balls (so to speak) to stand up against this PC nonsense without worrying about the fallout. He knows his base.

Sorry, but the law cannot change nature. There are 2 sexes. No more, no less.

I need to contact my high school biology teacher and my college biology professors to tell them their classes were 'archaic, dogmatic, and alarming'.

Apparently science is 'archaic, dogmatic, and alarming' to democrats.

It is going to be a VERY long two years. Hopefully the Republican Party can get their act together before 2020.

My first thought was satire, too. It's just another example of Democrats being beyond satire.
