Women Must Stand against the Transgender Movement

No matter what women suffer at the hands of the transgender movement, those who claim to stand for social justice, feminism, and gender equality ignore them. During the COVID-19 outbreaks, we saw the attitude of “if it kills just one person we need to take action!” Yet, when it comes to discussing how women and girls are harmed, humiliated, and diminished by many transgenders, discourse is strictly prohibited. The Left would rather tell women to be quiet about their experiences, so as not to provide ammunition for the oppression of transgender ‘women’.

Supposedly they want to live their lives peacefully. Yet they would rather turn the word ‘woman’ into a discriminatory slur—unless it’s being applied to trans people, of course—and reduce women to their bodily functions; coercing them to adopt words like “bleeder,” “uterus/vagina-owner,” “pregnant person,” or “chest-feeder.” Radical transgenders believe themselves to be better than women, and they would love to remove the ‘transgender woman/cisgender woman’ distinction while women get reduced to words that could just as easily serve as more disgusting, dehumanising, and objectifying replacements for the word “handmaiden.”

How interesting, that they vilify those who wish to unite under a shared national identity, yet desire so strongly to unite as one collective group that supposedly understands femininity better than women and is therefore more deserving of the title. This collective movement is the threat. Of course, not all trans individuals degrade or disregard women. But while their voices are so important in online and cultural discourse, they’re not in the highest ranks of government or industry making decisions that can affect the rights and well-being, or the perception of women.

Currently, we have a trans ‘woman’, Rachel Levine, as the serving Assistant Secretary for Health of the United States, who was named USA Today’s “woman of the year” in 2022. We also have Sam Brinton, a genderfluid individual, as the recently-ex-Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Office of Nuclear Energy, who featured his real name on fetish websites and was only booted from his government position after two instances of stealing a woman’s luggage at an airport baggage claim.

The entire Biden administration prides itself intensely on how it has advanced “equality and visibility for transgender Americans”: so much so that the self-congratulatory fact sheet provided to such individuals on all that the government has done for them is longer than the equivalent outlining state commitments to women and mothers (sorry, “uterus-havers” and “birthing people”).

We have transgender/gender-nonconforming individuals who prioritise their advancements above all else in the highest positions of power in the country. Yet somehow, to call out the way in which some members of that sect of society have genuinely harmed women is dangerous to them? They are perhaps the most prioritised sect of society under this administration and the culture that has thrived today, which only emboldens them to be fully outspoken with their unabashed hatred of women.

“An extreme example!” is what some may say to the above screenshot. “Most really do want to just live their lives and be left alone,” or if that’s not the case, it is just an expression of frustration, “like when a woman says ‘I hate men!’ after a bad date with a guy!” But if you were to alter the Reddit post to make it look like it was written by a man, would such rhetoric still be okay?

Does this not constitute incel behaviour?

It's important to point out how expansive the vitriol of the collective trans-female movement towards women is, and just how easy it is for them to put it on full display since they are the most ‘marginalised’ group on the social justice totem pole and, presently, the most lauded and supported. The vitriol doesn't stop at social media posts where someone complains they can't get a date. We have the dystopian trans horror fiction novel Manhunt being positively reviewed on NPR and Reddit, where the story’s plot centres around two trans women and their fight against the ‘Knights of J. K. Rowling’ who are out to kill them in light of a plague that turns individuals with enough testosterone into feral beasts that rape and kill women. The novel has received praise for its “completely believable” depictions of gender-critical women, but can you imagine that praise being given to the story if it had been written by a non-trans-identifying man? In what universe would a rape and murder power-fantasy against women be celebrated in the news or on social media if it hadn't been written by a trans woman?

At this point, it is incredibly difficult to believe that the current collective trans movement means well. It is easier than ever to call oneself trans without having to prove it, and this opens the door to excusing and ignoring criminal behaviour. In 1988, it was reported that sex offenders have multiple paraphilic diagnoses, with 96.5 per cent of transsexuals in the study having one to three additional paraphilias. Additionally, it was reported that over 80 per cent of those paraphilias targeted women, with 67.2 per cent targeting women exclusively and 20 per cent targeting both men and women. There are indeed individuals who sincerely feel as if they were born in the wrong body, and that physical and medical transition may be an appropriate course of treatment for them. However, in accepting transgenderism with no questions asked, we have opened the door to potential sex offenders who genuinely wish to harm others and can now use transgenderism as a defence.

Before you say “that just doesn’t happen,” it does, and it has.

A male found guilty of raping two women in Scotland started identifying as a woman following his arrest. Despite the horrendous nature of the crime, he’s been allowed to be held in a women’s prison for up to a month while awaiting sentencing. In Arizona, a transgender board member of an elementary school district allegedly went into a women's locker room at a gym to stare at a woman’s bare chest, and police did nothing since it was “a touchy subject.” Would a girl have the same courage to call the police, let alone document the incident? Meanwhile, prominent transgender activist Eli Erlick was recently featured on Vice, despite the disgusting allegations of being a sexual predator and the admission of illegally distributing hormones to minors.

Actor Ezra Miller has committed some truly awful crimes, including choking a woman, harassing bar patrons in Hawaii, allegedly robbing and threatening a couple who housed him, throwing a chair at a woman, and grooming a child before supplying her drugs. Despite all this, he has not lost any of his acting jobs and is reportedly one of the only actors to maintain their role in the DC Entertainment Universe while actors like Henry Cavill have been sacked. Similarly to Cavill, Johnny Depp was condemned by the mainstream due to unfounded allegations. It is likely Ezra's status as a “nonbinary” has something to do with the fact he keeps getting away with actions that a cisgender man would not. 

Ladies, especially those who welcomed radical inclusivity—spaces that were previously women-only are now open to anyone who identifies as a woman. There's no guarantee that they will respect you or care about your comfort or safety. You could be kicked out of a women’s shelter if you’re fleeing a domestic violence situation; you could work your entire life and sacrifice your youth to train in a sport, only to be beaten by someone who had the advantage of greater physical strength that being male offers; or you could be the most beautiful woman in the world and still miss out on the title in favour of a biological male.

Unless we want this to continue and potentially lead to harm to us, our mothers, sisters, daughters, or other women we know, we need to stand against the transgender movement.
