.Just another angry rant about how mind numbingly ridiculous the whole thing is.

It’s been taking up too much space in my brain today so I’m releasing my rage here, amongst those who understand...

How can anyone buy into this complete nonsense? This ideology demands we pretend there is no physical difference between male and female humans.

We are supposed to buy that our father, upon claiming a special (and nebulous) “woman identity” is completely anatomically and societally indistinguishable from our mother? That he is just as much a “woman” as the female who gestated us for 9 months and pushed us into the world through her birth canal/had us surgically extracted from her womb?

I will not pretend that my body is the same as a male body. My whole life has been shaped by my female body and the way society treats females.

Even if males and females were treated with equality, even if there was no crime disparity or systematic misogyny, even if women were liberated and there was no patriarchy (though I think Transgenderism is a symptom of misogynistic society) I would not pretend this...because it is a lie. I won’t lie. We are distinct from men.

We grow up internalising the struggles of our sex class; in history class we learn that females are aborted in utero, or left out to die or abandoned in orphanages, that heirs are male, and female children were unwanted, a disappointment...we wonder if our dad wished we were a boy.

We learn from the news that women and girls are abused, kidnapped, raped and killed by men. All the time. We learn that some of them deserved it for dressing the wrong way or walking in the wrong place or asking for it. We learn to stay away from strange men.

We know that if we were born in less fortunate circumstances we would be denied education, have our genitals mutilated, be forced to marry men twice our age...because we are female. We learn what happens to girls in other countries and our own.

We learn from our mothers that domestic and emotional labour is our domain, they didn’t have our opportunities - they were secretaries, receptionists, nurses ... their career paths limited because of their sex, their presumed reproductive capabilities. Their dreams never mattered as much as those of our fathers.

We learn from our peers that we are good at things “for a girl” (yet oddly enough, our male peers are taunted when they do things “like a girl” 🤔) we are chastised for being “unladylike”. When our bodies change, our male peers change towards us. So do older men. We are still children but suddenly our bodies are public property.

I could go on and on and on about being a female in this world. The objectification, the humiliation, the hardship, the biological struggles, the injustice, the sisterhood. The millions of ways our experience is different to men.

The universal experience of “womanhood” is being female in this misogynistic and completely male-centric world.

And all this horrible minimising of woman’s experiences, blatant untruths of biological denialism and denial of male depravity...it is SO unfair and so cruel. To deny women the ability to define their own bodies and experiences as female and distinct from men. To force us to pretend that our experience is isolated - not female specific (because that hurts the feelings of some narcissistic men)

What I want to ask the privileged idiots who buy into this foolishness is this....if you castrate a bull and stick a bow on its head does it become a cow?

Put a dog in a pink diamanté collar and is it magically a bitch?

No? Human beings cannot change sex. That is a fact. If you deny this then you are an imbecile who is colluding in gaslighting and abusing women and girls.

Sorry for how long and jumbled this rant turned out to be. It’s just so fucking maddening. Being demonised for understanding the most basic of truths...men are not, and cannot be, women (and vice versa) it is all gaslighting on an international scale. But how weak minded do people have to be to fall for it? How has it gotten this bad? :/
