Throughout history women have struggled to obtain equal rights: the right to vote, the right to control their own property, the right to raise their own children, the right to control their own bodies. Many felt that all this progress was secure. They were wrong.

Now progressives insist that biological males with male genitalia can be women whenever they wish. They can participate in women’s sports, even Olympics, and take medals and scholarships meant for women. They can participate in women’s martial arts and send a woman competitor to the hospital with a concussion and multiple facial fractures. They can be sent to women’s prisons and be cellmates with women, and beat them up. Worst of all, they can be admitted to battered women’s shelters and be put on cots a few feet from frightened women.

Rather than being honest and taking away the rights that women have won with so much effort over so many years, progressives have short-circuited the process by claiming that women do not really exist as separate entities – anybody can be one. This raises misogyny to an entirely new level.
