What is a woman?” This simple question—to which the dictionary definition, still clinging on for dear life, is “adult female human”—has recently been stumping Western politicians. During her recent confirmation hearing for the US Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson struggled to give a definition, demurring that she isn’t, in fact, a biologist. Britain’s Conservative chancellor, Rishi Sunak, likewise struggled painfully to answer it in a recent interview. Everybody in the world knows, however, that you don’t need to be a biologist to define what a woman—or, indeed, a man—is. Everybody, that is, apart from the gender ideologues who today occupy the commanding heights of media, business, academe, and philanthropy. Many of them are interviewed in Matt Walsh’s compelling new documentary, What Is A Woman?

Western societies have taken a wrong turn on transgenderism, and all of us should resolve to reverse course. We all want to do our best by each other, by our children. When people are unhappy, we shouldn’t rush to medicate and operate on them to “affirm” what they say they want. Sometimes institutions, such as medicine and education, and the people who comprise them, go wrong. Those who work in these places need to speak up when they know something isn’t right. Parents’ eagerness to change their children’s sex should be a red flag; doctors keen to be at the “cutting edge” of new technologies of the body are to be questioned, not worshipped. We may disagree on all kinds of issues, but here reality is howling out: You can’t change sex, and the damage being done in pretending otherwise is utterly, damningly horrific.

Our entire civilization—all of our technologies—are utterly dependent on accurately understanding objective reality. There is no such thing as your reality or my reality. This concept of gender as something separate from biological sex is total nonsense, even non-science. When a person’s perceptions don’t match measurable, objective reality, that person is considered mentally ill.
I consider transgenderism a doubling down on the sin of homosexuality. God calls homosexuality an abomination. It’s a perversion of His natural law. A man sexually using another man is simply wrong, a disorder, but a man using another man who claims to be a “woman” is even worse.
I don’t agree that ‘our entire civilization’ is utterly dependent on objective reality’. In fact, if it were, it would be an entirely materialistic system.
If we take ‘civilization’ in its general sense, it is based on many principles that are really SUBjective. There is no objective proof, for instance, for many of the values upon which our Constitution is based. Ideals are not always objective.
But I do agree that biological sex, DNA, etc., are objective facts, and ignoring them is just whimsy.
More than whimsical, irrational. We are talking about a full-blown demonic-driven insanity. Those who are in bondage need spiritual help from God and whatever help we can provide as per God’s guidance.
No, I think its whimsical - and I’ll add perilous.
But I don’t think that humans need ‘demons’ to drive their stupidity and evil. We do fine all on our own.
(It seems to me that if you believe they are ‘demon-driven’ you are absolving them from personal responsibility.)
These deranged gender blenders who quest for artificial sex could just as well buy sex dolls which can be made to be anything they want. While they are getting their money’s worth they can lay off our kids who have their futures ahead of them. We want for our kids a world where life is real—not something artificially created by surgical art. For them, there will no experience that equals the love that comes from the God given relationship between a natural born man and woman.
Remember how in George Orwell’s book 1984, the slogans of War is Peace and Freedom is Slavery were readily accepted in what Orwell called “doublethink”? When it comes to gender we have achieved “doublethink” accepting that the likes of Lia Thomas and Rachael Lavine are women
I cannot speak authoritatively, but I think one has to be first committing sins to be possessed by a demon. I presume serious sins.
Transspeak is simply Newspeak.
