What does the word transgender even mean?
Part of the problem is that someone, somewhere decided to
give separate meanings to the words gender and sex, and society accepted it.
But what is gender apart from sex?
Gradually we are being trained to refer to a person as a man
or a woman entirely on a person’s self-identification apart from the objective
markings that have defined them throughout all of human history.
So now we often refer to a man as a woman and a woman as a
man apart from their biology, yet it is biology that defined them in the first
place.
What is a woman, and how is she different from a man?
A woman has a womb. A
woman is able to create living beings in that womb. The survival of the human race depends on
women creating living beings in their womb.
When the average woman in a society bears less than 2.1 living beings in
her lifetime, the society shrinks. There
are fewer people in it, and the average age increases, which gives that society
fewer productive people and more people dependent on others for their care.
A man has the ability to get that life started in the woman’s
womb. A woman cannot do that on her own,
and a man cannot create life on his own.
The world needs the two to join together in the process.
It can be argued today that science can make the need for
human interaction here unnecessary, but that also removes the human emotional
involvement in the life of the child, as if that were not important. Personally, I don’t think it would be wise to
do a longitudinal study on that, because if it were proven to be detrimental to
the life of that child, we will have inflicted damage on thousands of children
just to prove or disprove our theories.
We have gone so far as to think of sex as having been assigned
to us at birth, like maybe the doctor preferred one over the other, or they
drew straws in deciding what sex to call the children.
But why is this all important, important enough to call it a
myth and no doubt incur the wrath of innumerable people.
If a person thinks they are of the other sex and they want
to live like that and even undergo physical changes through surgery, why is
that even any of my business?
It’s not.
Except for one thing.
Our schools and our society insist that we teach this to our
children and demand that they make their choices NOW.
We recognize a distinction between children and adults,
where adults can assume full responsibility for their actions, and children need
the consent of an adult or guardian to do certain things and other things they
are strictly forbidden from doing until they reach adulthood, because we deem
them not mature or knowledgeable enough to make wise or informed decisions.
But now, we are telling our children that the biology they were
born with means as little as the clothes they wear as to who they really are
inside. They can really become one of
those other humans who we detect are different from us, and we are now
encouraging these children to undergo life-changing medical procedures that
alter their outward appearances yet cannot change what they are inside.
The most egregious example of this is an enormous number of
young girls who believe that they are boys, whatever that may mean. Or that they can become boys if they take the
right medicines and have the right surgeries.
And the medical community has been coerced into accommodating their
wishes. They routinely give hormone
treatments and do surgeries even without the children’s parents’ knowledge or
consent. I understand that there is a
push such that if parents object to this, they may be deemed abusive parents
and lose custody of their children.
So young girls, long before they have ever thought of having
children or getting married, are pushed into making permanent decisions about
the rest of their lives. Some will argue
that the effects of the medicines are not permanent. Surgeries certainly are. And I understand that puberty blockers and
then later hormone injections do have permanent ill effects.
These girls will never play on the boys’ sports team nor
will they ever become comfortable changing in a boys’ locker room. They will never create life in another woman’s
womb, though they will still have that ability in their own, but they have made
it as difficult as possible. So what exactly
do they think they are becoming, and what are we telling them that they can
become?
This is all absurd, wrong, and nothing other than child
abuse.
