The transgender ideology will erase women and gays from the law and culture, said a polite tweet from J.K. Rowling, the British left-wing author of the Harry Potter books.
Rowling’s tweet prompted grateful responses from women, lesbians, and gays who have seen their priorities shoved aside as progressives embrace the transgender claims.
The transgender movement says each person’s biological sex is determined by their personal feeling of “gender,” not by their biology.
This claim demands governments force people of all ages to agree men do become real women whenever the men declare they have the “gender identity” of a woman.
It also requires everyone to accept the construct a man’s penis becomes a woman’s penis when he says so, and it requires all to encourage confused children to take risky and irreversible drugs and cosmetic surgery.
Critics say the transgender demand would outlaw the biological definition of women and men, and make it impossible for people to promote, protect or celebrate the social status of women and men, lesbians and gays
