There is a palpable uptick in men wanting to be women, and women wanting to be men.
Why? What are the social forces and dynamics behind this trend?
I'm not a psychologist, social scientist, or even a guest at a Holiday Inn, but it's pretty obvious to me.
1. The People Magazine crowd loves a victim.
Remember Pat O'Brien's lame Olympic "coverage"? Or Oprah, or Jerry Springer? They set up the false notion that vast swaths of the American people hate this or that type of person, and if we all just accepted as normal every nutty psychiatric disorder, it would be a better world. And so, permission to be a man inside a girls' locker room and toilet! It's normal and you're a Neanderthal bigot if you disagree. Those damaged minds with gender dysphoria don't need therapy! They need to use your daughter's potty and play on her water polo team.
2. GI Jane is a Demi God.
Ridiculous pop culture pap like GI Jane, Marvel girls, Star Wars girls, and Madame President Hillary set up real young women to actually think they are the same as men. Sorry, men have their issues from Mother Narure and so do women. The sexes are different, duh. Nothing could underscore this any more than NCAA mandates to include biological men in female sporting events. Whether weight lifting, soccer, swimming, running, softball, the boys dressing as girls are setting records that females will never un-set. Soon more and more scholarships and Olympic slots will go to men instead of women. The reality is that 99% of women cannot carry the same loads of ammo or fire victims as 99% of men, nor do it as fast either.
3. Women have bennies that Men do not, so become one!
Women do not have to register for the draft or be compelled to enlist in the armed forces. Women get special social treatment, and not just doors opened to cars and buildings. Women get more scholarship and hiring opportunities than men. Women are celebrated for being successful "as women". Women get put on pedestals, pageanted, and worshipped for sheer sexuality or beauty, which isn't an accomplishment as much as an accident of birth. Women get EEOC points for their employers and thus are sometimes given walking-around jobs. Women get special treatment as mothers in divorce and in criminal court as accusers and as victims. So looking at all this special treatment, a male with a damaged ego may leap eagerly to womanhood, and keep his block and tackle in the bargain.
4. Moral relativism is the state religion.
There are no hard definitions. There are no hard rules. There are no actions for which the individual must accept responsibility. There is no free will. We are all forced by some force field to do bad things, and thus no one is accountable for their decisions. Have the Wokesters worked out where this will lead? They don't care. As long as certainty, science, truth, and morality is dissolved in favor of chaos and dependency by unhinged masses on the Big Brother. So they WANT men and women to be confused and disordered. They want the construct of objective reality to be displaced by fantasy. Disney, not Church! No, Disney is Church!
My Aunt Josephine told me 50 years ago that the "world is going to Hell in a handbasket." She was right then and increasingly right now.
Men, regain yourselves as males who protect and defend. Women, cherish your natural role as nurturers and lifegivers.
What else really matters? Nothing. It's all about life, peace, compassion, justice, and reality. That happens with the only 2 actual genders, the ones people are born as. Not assigned. But as factually noted at birth.
