On Mon., Mar. 3, the U.S. Senate rejected The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, introduced by Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville, by a vote of 51 to 45. Not a single Democrat voted in favour of the bill!
Appearing on the Chris Stigall show of the Salem News Network, Paula Scanlan, a staunch defender of Women’s Rights, pointed out that 67% of Democratic voters in fact agree that biologically born Males should Not be competing in Female sports. Among Americans in general, that number surges to 80%. The obvious implication of these stats is that the Democratic Party has lost touch not only with the American public but perhaps with Reality itself! Indeed the overwhelming dominance of Trans Athletes such as Lea Thomas and others, does nothing but highlight the fact that biologically born Males are, whatever their claims to the contrary, whatever hormonal procedures they may receive, irreversibly distinct from the members of the opposite sex. This is a simple Objective Fact! In the days when Reason rather than Sentiment still ruled as the arbiter of our accepted Truths, the denial of such Facts would have been deemed a sign of dementia. But “demented” is precisely the adjective I would apply to the Democratic Party’s recent decision to support the delusions of a deviant minority at the expense of millions of biological females. Sadly, I must of course point out that I use the word “deviant” not as a moral indictment, not as an expression of hatred, but as a simple biological fact.
In defending his party’s rejection of Tuberville’s piece of legislation, Democratic Senator Brian Schatz stated as follows: “What Republicans are doing today is inventing a problem to stir up a culture war and divide people against each other.” That 80% of Americans agree that Trans Women should not be allowed to compete against Biological Females, that a host of examples in sports such as swimming, track and field, volleyball, etc., graphically highlight the advantages granted to biologically born males, is all apparently irrelevant to Mr. Schatz. So deluded are he and, apparently, the majority of Democrats, that they voted unanimously against the facts of Reality itself! And yet, of course, they blame those damned Republicans for inventing the entire issue!
Title IX was a 1972 piece of legislation banning discrimination against Females in the realm of Education. As it’s enforcement became increasingly more complicated due to the emergence of “Trans Rights,” Trump declared in 2020 that a Female was one who was biologically born as such. While the woke Biden administration ignored that dictum, Trump reinstated it this past February. Is he a heartless bastard devoid of empathy for those of a Trans orientation, or is he in fact a compassionate defender of Women’s Rights? This question, of course, is fraught with moral considerations irrelevant to the “inclusive” Left. Trans Females, that is to say, must have the integrity and self-awareness to admit that they are not in fact Biological Females and therefore not entitled to dominate the latter in various athletic competitions. Given this perspective, their decisive victories are not so much worthy of our admiration as they are of moral disdain!
The notion that anything I have said is the result of a trans phobia is utter nonsense. I have nothing but empathy for those born into a state of gender ambiguity. But their condition does not exonerate them from honouring the simple standards of human decency! This is, apparently, an issue too complex for America’s Democrats to understand.
