Berkeley professor calls Josh Hawley ‘transphobic’ in hot exchange about whether men get pregnant
The Washington Times ^ | July 12 | By Valerie Richardson

Posted on 07/13/2022 3:01:12 AM PDT by RandFan

Asking whether only women can become pregnant could get you accused of being transphobic, as Sen. Josh Hawley can attest.

At a Tuesday hearing, University of California Berkeley School of Law professor Khiara M. Bridges accused the Missouri Republican of engaging in “transphobic” questioning after he asked her what she meant by “people with a capacity for pregnancy.”

“The Democrats say what they really think: men can get pregnant and if you disagree, you are ‘transphobic’ and responsible for violence,” Mr. Hawley tweeted afterward. “For today’s left, disagreement with them = violence. So you must not disagree.”

Mr. Hawley touched off the exchange by asking the law professor during testimony at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on abortion if she meant “women” when she used the phrase “people with a capacity for pregnancy.”

“Transphobic” - this seems to be the new label for people still in touch with reality.

Why on earth is Hawley engaged in a “hot” exchange with a Berkerly sicko? Hasn’t he better things to do?

Is the Left's love of gayness and weenie-wacking trannies part and parcel of their war on men and their so-called "toxic masculinity"?

After all, what better way for the communists to take over a country if they can first rid that country of its manly warrior types?

Which man among you can give birth to a baby naturally? It can’t happen because it is physically impossible. Of course if a woman identifies as a man and presents a man they still can”t get a woman or a man pregnant or play on a pfofessional male sport team. It does not seem fair lol.

The word that she needed was not “transphobic” but “sane.”

University of California Berkeley Bezerkley School of Law professor Khiara M. Bridges accused the Missouri Republican of engaging in “transphobic” questioning ...

Fixed the typo.

I think I would ask the professor if she was Christophobic, Biblophobic or possibly Theophobic. It is opposite day everyday with people like her. She goes through mental gymnastics to convince others that because you don't participate in her beliefs you are phobic or afraid. It is actually the opposite. When she is presented with facts about her religious like belief in transgenderism she becomes afraid of those facts and lashes out at the people presenting the facts. In her belief system everything is relative. Truth can only be presented through her system of beliefs. Submit or you will be labeled.

It was a US Senate committee hearing with this faux academic giving testimony. What was Sen Hawley to do? Sit there and accept?

Those earrings could be used as spares for my bicycle!

Affirmative action dumbs the whole class down, even the back row that does not speak English.

That snotty bitch needs to be slapped silly. I saw a clip of her and Hawley last night and couldn’t believe how she spoke to him.

I hate to think what she’d do if she got one too few McNuggets in her order. She’s a mean one for sure.

““The Democrats say what they really think: men can get pregnant and if you disagree, you are ‘transphobic’ and responsible for violence,” Mr. Hawley tweeted afterward. “For today’s left, disagreement with them = violence. So you must not disagree.””

What Hawley should have asked is whether a “biological” male can get pregnant. This is the reason why there is this kabuki theater that is successfully gaslighting the youth of America. The English language has been corrupted by the left and no one will call them out on this.
