‘People are sick of being pushed around and told they can’t even ask questions,’ said one commentator
Over the past few years, the transgender movement has pushed its way into every nook and cranny of American culture, and major institutions and authorities have tried to force all people to go along with it.
But now, the tide is turning.
It started quietly, with biological science and objective reality being given a backseat to internal feelings and chosen identity. To become a member of the opposite sex, all one needs to do is declare it to be so and others will be forced to acknowledge it is so.
Next came the reengineering of language. The word โsex,โ which defines a man or a woman, has been replaced by the word โgender,โ which can be anything.
Then came the new terms and pronouns.
To help people keep up with the growing list of terms and pronouns, Trans Student Educational Resources provides a tutorial, advising that โthese are not the only pronounsโ and that โthere are an infinite number of pronouns as new ones emerge in our language.โ
For those who struggle to differentiate and understand the new terms and pronouns, thereโs an โLGBTQ+ Glossaryโ explaining all of the gender terms, acronyms, initialisms, and pronouns on their ever-evolving and expanding list.
Even the National Institutes of Health under the Department of Health and Human Services provides instruction and guidance on the proper use of โGender Pronouns & Their Use in Workplace Communications,โ warning that โintentional refusal to use someoneโs correct pronouns is equivalent to harassment and a violation of oneโs civil rights.โ
Refusal to use a colleagueโs preferred pronoun at work can result in punishment or termination.
Erasing Women
Then came the effort to erase womanhood itself.
Females are no longer โwomen.โ Those promoting gender ideology cannot define the term โwoman,โ and women are instead referred to as โbirthing peopleโ or โpeople with uteruses.โ There are also claims that โmen can have periodsโ and โwomen have penises.โ
