I think most women are just extremely ignorant to consequences of this attack on language and the impact it has on laws. It took me a lock down and year of sifting through all of the dogmatic rhetoric to understand what was actually happening. JK Rowling and her essay made me look up and notice that this was an actually truly terrifying issue. However, prior to that I didn't even know how far this issue went.

So true.

So many of us, especially those of us who fought for gay rights, just think we're vaguely supporting LGBT-whatever without realizing that this isn't the gay rights movement of old and in fact former gay rights organizations are actively working against LGB rights, especially LGB children.

Then you start digging into what's really happening and you go down the deepest rabbit hole of your life.
