The Federalist: Trans demands aren't human rights

submitted by WrongToy from self.GenderCritical

As a rape survivor, I can tell you firsthand that there are many parallels between the ways transactivists behave and the way sexual abusers act: They’re gaslighting. They’re grooming children. They’re making people feel guilty for having boundaries. They’re threatening to kill themselves if you don’t give them what they want. The price tag is your dignity.

Transmania has become a cult religion, complete with chants (e.g. “Trans women are women), shunning, punishing dissent, and silencing the opposition. If you have to shout people down, it’s probably because you’re afraid what they have to say makes too much sense. The trans cult exercises mind control over the masses who are terrified into submissive silence.

Oh yeah, they're conservative and pro-Trump so TRIGGER WARNING and all that.

The author is a member of a non-partisan group of women fighting gender ideology called HANDS ACROSS THE AISLE.

As with every other person on Earth, I agree with a lot of what she says and disagree with other things she says, but she is one brave woman.

And I think that women (and men) working together across the political spectrum is the only way we're going to defeat gender ideology.

yeah, they came on with miriam ben shalom in that UW debate that ended up being a shitshow in 2016.

I don't know which debate?

A few British feminists seem to have a bone to pick with HANDS ACROSS THE AISLE, but I think that they're magnificent. Such brave women willing to put aside differences and work together to save women's rights. As I said, I don't agree with every members every thought, but I applaud their courage, their dedication and their hard work. Sheros.

It was "Just Want Privacy" at UW in 2016. The YT used to be live but you can still see remnants of it.

Kaeley got shouted down. Ben-Shalom got more attention because she was the first military drill sergeant and carries an intimidating appearance, but the TRA crowd really quieted down when they brought on a detransitioned female and her girlfriend.

Thugs.

"Trans rights" as they stand now are mostly the right for straight men to walk around with gender euphoria boners in women's locker rooms, bathrooms, and shelters.

Which means women will just stay away from those places and suffer. The pleasure of men over the safety and comfort of women. I hate these people.

And to have sex on demand from any woman they want.

Any person of any political affiliation -- Monster Raving Looney Party for all I care -- who stands up for women, I'll listen. At this point, I don't need a "warning, pro-Trump" because Biden has been spouting off pro-Trans bull for a long time now. If anything, I need a "warning, pro-Biden" label. The Biden Foundation or whatever it was called is closed now -- I guess because of his candidacy-- but it had a lot of pro-Trans garbage on it.

THIS: <If you have to shout people down, it’s probably because you’re afraid what they have to say makes too much sense. >

Makes me think of college campuses [Zoom campuses!] today.

A big cyber hug to you for being a rape survivor. Gaslighting and Grooming are the way of the 21st century, at least in the West. I'm sure it's spreading.

Sadly, it seems to be not AGP but mothers who are pushing Trans Bull on children. "My child is special. My child is trans!" That is major child abuse. How many more mothers are going to do this? I've been asking around and almost everyone has a story about a mother they know or their friend knows and "her child is trans" ! If your OWN MOTHER will do this to you, what chance do you have as a child?

There are fathers too, when they are finding that their boy is gay.

[–]our_team_is_winning 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

So you think the father wants to pretend he doesn't have a gay son (gay boys being real), but the mother wants to pretend she actually has a "trans" child (which isn't real)? Interesting how the man doesn't want attention for his child being different, but the woman craves it in these cases.

[–]MezozoicGay 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

No, I am saying that there sometimes fathers who do not want to see their kid as gay, so they are transitioning them, and mothers can't do anything with that. On west this seems to be happening more rarely, while here it is the majority of cases, and mothers very rarely want kids as trans. And the more authoritarian or homophobic country is, more often this happens (ending up with extremes of Iran or Russia) with fathers. On West it seems like "being woke and special" plays big role in society, so everyone want to be special, especially this expected from women, so seems that if affected by this woman can't become special herself - she makes her kid that.

So Ovarit dropped the old GC Rule 8, it seems.

Is that something about posting conservative news links?

[–]WrongToy[S] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yeah, gc didn't allow it unless you archived per the old rule 8 so clicks wouldn't be sent to them.

Frankly I think that's at the lowest of our concerns at the moment, but whatever.
