Gender studies professor: Women who believe men can’t become women are like white supremacists

Like telling foreigners they don’t belong in the United States

It’s not enough for some academics to say that women who choose biology over subjective mental states are “transphobic.”

One of them says these women, known by the slur “trans-exclusionary radical feminists,” are in the same league as the Ku Klux Klan.

The subject is dissident feminists in academia, such as the University of California-Santa Barbara’s Laura Tanner, who argue that treating men as women based on their gender identity is misogynistic at its core and invalidates women.

A professor of gender and women’s studies at the University of Arizona, Susan Stryker, tells Inside Higher Ed that female identity is like immigration:

If womanhood is a “a restricted country,” Stryker said, citing the writer Joan Nestle, “Who says what those restrictions shall be? Who is womanhood for? How does one become its citizen?”

It’s “legitimate to ask all such questions,” Stryker continued. “There should be no bounds on academic inquiry.” Yet “what I see in the TERF wars is not disinterested academic inquiry,” she added. “It’s more akin to white supremacists wanting to propagandize other whites about foreigners, where the position of foreigners in the conversation has been deemed illegitimate in advance.”

Wow, that’s a heck of a typo.

How does one get to “ like white supremacists” when you are supposed to be typing “sane”.

When a man can have a baby I will concede the quack professor’s point.

Drac men can have babies. Does that count?

Sane people: Anyone who believes a man can become a woman just by thinking it is a mental case who belongs in a cell.

"She entered the Ph.D. program in U.S. History at the University of California-Berkeley in 1983, picked up an M.A. along the way, and earned her doctorate in 1992. Somewhere towards the end of that process she came out as transsexual and publicly transitioned genders."

I disagree that it’s a parody.

It’s a profanation.

Professor SFB (s**t for brains). Close down the “universities” - they’re good for nothing but propaganda and idiocy.

Remember the old days when we locked insane people up in sanitariums and asylums?

To protect them from themselves, and to protect sane society from them.

Now we make them college professors, encourage their delusions and help them spread those delusions to a gullible public.

I miss the old days.

I am so tired of these people.

Tell me when this crap ends, once and for all, because I am so tired of this.

How did these people get political power?

These people, like this professor, are all about chaos. They really aren’t concerned about women’s rights - except as far as it produces chaos.

Then when “women’s rights” get in the way of further chaos and destruction, then feminism is turned upside down, and anything else that gets in the way of producing more chaos.

This has always been about the destruction of, not just the United States, but all of Western civilization through the annihilation of the family and of moral absolutes.

The so-called sexual revolution which occurred during the sixties along with the outright rejection of faith and the grounding of moral standards (moral relativism) has all but destroyed the family integrity of all ethnic groups in our society - particularly Black families.

But, I digress - anything and everything that destroys moral absolutes and the family structure - that’s what the ones who know what they are doing want. They want that because that is what will eventually bring our country to its knees. The true believers in this “woke” idiocy don’t really get what’s going on.

This professor is either a true believer or just a woke pigeon.

A man won “woman of the year,” and they’re winning at women’s sports.

It’s confusing isn’t it?

In fact, it’s weirdo men reasserting themselves over women in a way no feminist, no historian, no philosopher could ever imagine. And it will not end well for anyone.
