How can anyone look at this guy and think, "Oh, trans women really are women?" How? Boggles my mind. He's a textbook autogynephile.

Due to the media onslaught of the last 10 or so years, during which we've been bombarded from all sides by representations of TiMs (TRANSPARENT, TRANSAMERICA, THE DANISH GIRL, etc., and ad nauseum) many people are now scared to speak out for fear that they're the only one who can see that the Emperor has no clothes.

It doesn't help that in many countries, our kids are being bombarded with gender ideology in school, so if we state the obvious, that biological sex is real and that's why you're here kid, we get mocked by our own children.

In my day, parents ruled. Now, I feel, kids rule, and many parents are desperate to be hip and stay on their kid's good side, so try to believe and push gender ideology and not notice its glaring lies.

Gender ideology is absolutely codified in social media like Tumblr and Reddit. Most adults don't have a clue what gender ideology or even transgenderism means. I think most naively assume that there is some new scientific evidence that they're not familiar with and just go along with the flow for fear of being labelled a bigot.

To be fair, parents who do understand what's going on are being actively undermined by legislation that denies them the right to block 'gender affirming' medical procedures and accuses them of 'abuse' if they don't 'affirm' a child's 'gender identity'.

The gender legislation being passed under the radar around the world will be truly horrifying once parents wake up.

I think in the US, Biden's executive order opened the door a crack, but at the moment the concern is about sports - wait until parents wake up to the fact that legislation has already been passed that takes away their right to decide their "gender divergent" kids' health!

Your first paragraph is what was happening to a lot of my middle-aged, well-educated friends with kids in high-parental income schools. They're not on Tumblr or Reddit, but their kids are being brainwashed in the schools. Then the kids come home and make their parents (who were Goths or punks or whatever was hip at the time when they themselves were in school) feel like they're old-fashioned. So the parents embrace gender ideology in an attempt to be with it.

In the meantime, the gender lobby has been relentless in trying to normalize transgenderism/ genderism in the media, both entertainment and publications. The gender lobby in the US has also bought up formerly respected popular science magazines and forced them to lie that there's new data that biological sex is a spectrum, etc.

That the gender lobby is pushing the sex is a spectrum line makes no sense in itself, because if biological sex is a spectrum, what is transgenderism, given that it's a member of one sex feeling that they're the opposite sex? But then trans logic does eat itself...

Well, most people don't know the word "autogynephile"

People are fucking sheep waiting to be told what to think by the MSM.
