Thank you so much Lisa!! Your writings, thoughts and way with words helps me articulate the reality about Gender Ideology to people who don’t understand-- which is everyone around me. It is destroying my young adult daughter and taking the rest of us down with her. I truly appreciate what you do for us.
i agree with your sentiment. but gender critical ppl need to use common terms to oppose this hostile takeover of language. when people say there are more than two genders, one can reply there are only two genders or one can reply there are only two sexes. if its the latter reply with no added info, gender cultists will later claim your definitions meaning is that males are actually women and these males are included in the definition of "female sex". im not an expert on what all the possible ways to consider this question. but it seems that simply saying there are only two genders is one easy way to make an understandable reply.
there are different audiences when it comes to this issue. there are people who are more concerned with harms to child safe guarding, harms to womens safety and rights. there are others who go along with gender ideology because they have been duped that somehow its kind to a group of magic people. to reach anyone duped by gender biz dogma, its almost always necessary to meet them on thier own terf to explain how theyve got it wrong.
i agree one can ID as anything they want. people can pretend to be a christmas tree. one can pretend to be the star on top of the tree. and certainly a man can ID as a women. im with you there. the line has to be clear that protects women's safety by preventing biological men from womens spaces. kids right to unmedicated pubrrty needs protection from cultists, quack drs and people who have been scammed by their dogma. ergo. a man can ID as a womem, but he should still use the mens restrooms and participate in mens sports. these terms arent academic. they are being used to harm marginalized groups whose rights are only protected via multiple underlines and repeated clarity

I really like this article spelling out the damage to pre-homosexual kids and those that might struggle to accept their homosexuality.

A critique of one of the more ridiculous pro-trans articles from the New York Times: https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/there-is-no-way-to-live-a-life-without
Lisa, thanks for this. Exactly what's needed. Not sure if you already reference this piece from The Free Press in your field guide but it makes a good case for why this argument isn't red vs blue, but right vs wrong. https://www.thefp.com/p/i-thought-i-was-saving-trans-kids?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email
For a glimpse of the high button shoes, the tool used to pull the buttons through their holes. and, as well, a reality check
