You can’t be born in the wrong body

The science behind gender ideology is dubious at best

What if you woke up one morning and found you’d swapped bodies with someone else: your mumthe boy next door“a monstrous vermin”, an older version of yourself? Would you still be “you”?

There’s a reason this setup is a classic. Most of us feel that there’s an “us” conceptually distinct from the body we inhabit. In fact, anthropologists suggest it’s a belief held in some form or other across all human cultures.

Jokes are not violence – this is violence

The attack on Dave Chappelle reminds us why we must never equate violence with words.

We don’t know why that man rushed comic legend Dave Chappelle onstage at the Hollywood Bowl last night, allegedly wielding a replica gun with a blade inside. What we do know is that Chappelle’s attacker got his arse handed to him by security, if the images of him being wheeled into an ambulance, bloodied, cuffed and with his arm cocked at a gruesome angle are anything to go by. And we also know that Chappelle handled it all like a pro, returning to the stage shortly after the attack to quip that it was a ‘trans man’ who had tackled him to the floor, a nod to the heat Chappelle has caught in recent years for his jokes about gender ideology.

Transgender Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine sparks fury by claiming ALL pediatricians agree on ‘gender-affirming care’

One of America’s top health officials has come under fire for saying that all pediatricians agree on providing children and teenagers with ‘gender-affirming care’ – despite vocal opposition to puberty blockers from doctors over the past few years.

Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine – who is also America’s highest-appointed transgender female – told NPR in a recent interview that ‘there is [an] evidence-based standard of care for the evaluation and treatment of trans individuals’ set by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health.

The Left Is Willfully Blind to Transgender Attacks on Kids

The left knew full well they could “woke” their way into letting dudes in dresses use ladies’ rooms (and attack women and girls in those restrooms) because they saw something very similar happen in England.

You may not have heard of England’s Muslim grooming gangs, but here is the dirt: Brit cops turned a blind eye toward Pakistani Muslim men raping mostly English girls between the mid-’90s and the late 2000s because — ready? — they thought that arresting them would be “racist.”

A Man in a Prom Dress Is a Test Case for the UK’s New Transgender Bathroom Rules

The law allows businesses to decide whether to permit “trans” men in women’s restrooms — but is that enough?

An 18-year-old British man who identifies as non-binary claims he was kicked out of a luxury dress shop last week while trying on prom dresses in the fitting room. The man, Charlie Moore, said he visited the retailer alongside his girlfriend, who also identifies as non-binary.

Moore, a political activist who is the “trans rep” for the youth wing of the U.K.’s Liberal Democratic Party, blasted his claims around social media, naming the business — Monsoon in Birmingham, England — and using his political clout to inflict a firestorm of complaints on the company.

Radical Gender Lessons for Young Children

Evanston–Skokie’s school district adopts a curriculum that teaches pre-K through third-grade students to “break the binary” of gender.

Evanston–Skokie School District 65 has adopted a radical gender curriculum that teaches pre-kindergarten through third-grade students to celebrate the transgender flag, break the “gender binary” established by white “colonizers,” and experiment with neo-pronouns such as “ze,” “zir,” and “tree.”

Some on the Left Are Worried That the Transgender Craze Has Gone ‘Too Far’

“Transgenderism” or “gender identity disorder” is based on an actual, rare, psychological condition known as gender dysphoria. No one is sure how many individuals are actually afflicted with the condition. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) — the Bible for psychiatry — estimates that about 0.005% to 0.014% of people assigned male at birth and 0.002% to 0.003% of people assigned female at birth are diagnosable with gender dysphoria.

The Testosterone Hangover

The Biden administration says transgender kids are entitled to ‘gender-affirming’ medical care. These girls disagree. ‘I have this intense rage in me over the harm that was done to me.’

When Chloe woke up from an elective double mastectomy, she texted her mother in the waiting room: “Booba gone.”

This was a little over two years ago. She was 15 at the time. “The typo was intentional,” she told me recently. “I thought it was funny.”

“Is that a good thing?” her mom replied.

“Yes,” Chloe texted back.

“I don’t think that answer aged well,” she said to me.

Groomer School in Massachusetts Sued for Hiding ‘Gender Identity’ From Parents

The fight against gender cult grooming is raging across the country and in Massachusetts, two sets of parents have filed a lawsuit alleging violations of religious freedom, privacy, and parental rights against public school officials who attempted to drive a wedge between them and their children using extreme gender ideology.

Lia Thomas and the Contradiction Between Liberty and Equality A tyrannical view of equality yields subjugation and mediocrity.

Kurt Vonnegut’s 1961 short story “Harrison Bergeron” stands apart as one of dystopian literature’s most poignant works, making up for its brevity in striking social commentary. The tale is set in the United States, year 2081. The newly ratified 211th, 212th, and 213th constitutional amendments demand that all men be equalized — nobody is allowed to be stronger, smarter, or more beautiful than anybody else. It’s a prescient tale that has much to say about our current struggle over equality and liberty, especially in the debate about transgender athletes in women’s sports.

A victory for free speech as Christian preacher is cleared

I HAVE some encouraging news for this special weekend, as we focus on the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. The trial of open-air preacher Pastor John Sherwood took place at Uxbridge magistrates’ court last week, and he was acquitted of the public order charges brought against him. This represents some welcome relief in the assault upon Christian liberties in contemporary Britain.
