There seems to be something attractive about believing such an absurdity, doesn’t there?

Because it’s so counter-intuitive (most things that are wrong are — thankfully), it seems ‘deep’, ‘philosophical’ and clever. The belief protects itself, because anyone that disagrees doesn’t ‘get it’.

But it’s just boringly, blandly wrong. I know that because of the logical inconsistencies. If a trans-woman is a woman, what’s the definition of ‘woman’? How can you compare your own entirely subjective ‘gender identity’ to anyone else’s to make sure there’s an objective commonality between them?

It’s maddeningly mad, the whole thing. But the virus has infected so many. They let it in because it seemed vaguely kind, and there’s no way back for them unless they swallow an awful lot of pride.

I think we may be stuck with this.

All gender ideology leads here. The professional feminists with their absolute contempt for ordinary women who hungered for a shot at a life of basic satisfactions--a reliable, appealing mate and the privilege of enjoying their children's earliest years without mockery and contempt--dragged us behind them as they thundered down this road shrieking about liberation.
