Seriously, it is almost UNBELIEVABLE that they are actually this brain fucked!! The extent of the crazy, OBVIOUSLY upside-down and inverted shit that they believe!! 😱 Oh, and I love that term you just invented, «EMBODIMENT feminist»!! ❤️❤️❤️ This extremely dissociated culture, that has somehow fallen prey to the idea that we are NOT our bodies, and that our bodies are just these purely insignificant OBJECTS that we own and control, with no intrinsic value and meaning to them..? SO needs this stuff, as an antidote!!

Plus another thing: most of the people who support gender ideology, as well as overall woke ideology, tend to be agnostics and atheists, by the looks of it. Either that, or alternatively spiritual people. At the very least, they tend to be anti Christianity, and very loudly and proudly REJECT traditional Christian dogma, as being sexist and regressive! (It is absolutely NUTS to me that they don’t feel the same way about Islam! Yet another example of their INSANE double standards!! But that is a different discussion altogether.) Which, one thing they reject about Christianity..? Is this idea of the body, and overall human nature, (especially as far as sexuality and its ability to feel PLEASURE goes), as being inherently SINFUL and inferior, and something that should be denied, punished, and dissociated from, as overall LESSER than our (supposed) souls, and a source of «sin»… So clearly, dissociating from the body, our senses, and the physical aspect of our existence, is bad THERE! And they hate THAT dualistic way of seeing it! But dissociating from one’s body due to hating it, blaming it, and even severely harming it and punishing it, due to its being supposedly the wrong sex for one’s inner, supposedly much more wholesome, «gender» soul..? Is totally progressive and marvellous!! Because they love this brave NEW religion, even if it really has a TON of overlap with the bad and oppressive version of Christianity that they rejected! And even if it is EXACTLY as sexist and harmful as their old one, if not even WORSE! But I mean, it still says «progressive» on the tin, and so they just go along with it, without looking any deeper. Mindlessly BELIEVING the lying sales pitch that was used to recruit them. Thinking that they CANNOT even question it, or else they’re basically SINNING. (Even if they don’t call it that. That is still more or less the thought mechanism that keeps them in line. And it is EXTREMELY similar to how OTHER dogmatic religions and cults ALSO keep people in line.) Yet they remain DEEPLY convinced that what they’re doing now is COMPLETELY different from what they were doing, and how they were kept from critically thinking and questioning, back when they were conventionally religious believers! Even though they have just simply swapped the Christianity that they were raised with, and rebelled against, for a slightly DIFFEFRENT religion! That is also EXACTLY as sexist and regressive, if not even worse! Just in a different way. Plus it is somewhat better at concealing it, through manipulation and excessive Newspeak. Whereas good old-fashioned Abrahamic religion is at least more HONEST about its sexism! (In certain ways, I appreciate that. As someone who prefers honesty.)

Anyway, I also get WHY women who call themselves “non-binary” think it is all rebellious, feminist, and defiant. Definitely not all of them, but I absolutely think many of them, use that as their replacement for radical feminism, because no one told them the latter was an option! With what they REALLY want being: they just want to be able to EXIST as themselves, and escape bullshit imposed sexist stereotypes that they don’t relate to! That paint women out as WEAK, intellectually inferior, inherently SUBMISSIVE, endlessly nourishing and self-sacrificing, pathetic second rate citizens, whose only value lies in being PRETTY and sexy, and constantly sexually available to men! Plus eventually popping out a few babies, before growing old and irrelevant, and then shutting up, because how dare you not be SEXY, or pretty, anymore?? OMFG, and of course ANY woman with any sense of dignity and self-respect, who insists on being seen as an actual goddamn PERSON, would fucking hate that!! I fucking hate it, too!! And I completely REJECT it!!! Me being a woman simply means me being female by sex, and having survived into adulthood. That’s it. It says NOTHING else about the kind of person I can be, or how I have to live! (Other than the purely biological and reproductive repercussions, of course. Like for instance, I can never be a father, and I can never produce sperm.) But if I had believed that all of these shitty sexist stereotypes were part of what being a woman actually inherently MEANT..? (Even on a subconscious level, that I was not aware of, which I believe to be the case for MOST of the women who insist that they are “non-binary”. They probably don’t KNOWINGLY, consciously believe these things! But somewhere deep down in their psyches, they have still subconsciously internalized it, anyway.) Then I ABSOLUTELY would have noped the hell out, too!! And I would have concluded that I was as “non-binary” as the freaking day is long!!! But: I was lucky, and I eventually found real feminism, instead. So I now reject all this sexist bullshit, while still owning and embracing my femaleness! Which, let’s face it, no matter how any woman FEELS about it, can’t be changed, anyway! So we might as well accept it!

I think there is also the retort of: “non-binary is just a harmless new invented word / concept, and a new way to signal that you REJECT all this sexist bullshit that is imposed on women!” And yeah, sure… “Goth” is also a construct. “Punk” is also a construct. But those are actually rebellious, and they don’t sell anyone out. While “non-binary” is used as an excuse for increasing dissociation, delusion, self-harm, and profound hatred and REJECTION of one’s healthy, sexed body! Plus it is SO devastatingly often the on-ramp to “trans”, then “trans masc”, then “trans man”, etc!! And sure, you very well may be a woman who uses it simply to express that: “I want to rebel against sexism! I don’t relate to, or want to partake in, ANY of the oppressive BS that is expected of women!” In which case, AWESOME, and good for you!! But by framing that experience as you being “non-binary”..? (Which, I think they also like it because it makes them feel a bit extra SPECIAL, let’s just face it. Which is also very human! Who doesn’t love to feel special?) You are: 1. further playing into, and supporting, gender ideology, and perpetuating the EXTREME harm it keeps doing to women and girls, (especially), and really our whole entire culture and society, and REALITY at large. 2. further reinforcing the idea that rejecting all that sexism makes you somehow NOT a woman, thus “woman” = a female who LOVES her chains, and “identifies” with said sexism! Which.. almost fucking none of us do!!! And especially, ESPECIALLY not rad fems / TERFs!! Newsflash: you can reject all that crap, AND still not lie about your sex!! And be a proudly defiant and ACTUALLY strong, brave and unique woman, who truly broadens people’s understanding of what a woman can be!!!

..Probably mostly just preaching to the choir, here. But I felt like going on a long rant about this before bedtime. 😜

Amy, what do you think about Trump’s walking back his stance against medically transient youth?!

Betina Søndergaard's avatar

I need to understand this.

Is Trump now saying that medically transing youths is the right thing to do?

I would love a link so I can read more

I just tried to send you a link about Trump's decision to walk back his decision to block taxpayer funding for Transing kids.
