Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) introduced a bill this week to legally erase transgender people, entitled the “Defining Male and Female Act of 2024.” He claimed that the bill will stop what he called the Biden administration’s attempt to “replace biological sex with dangerous radical gender ideology.”
The bill is a long list of terms and definitions, where words like “father” and “girl” are defined with the words “male” and “female.” Those two words are then defined as “an individual who naturally has, had, will have, or would have, but for a congenital anomaly or intentional or unintentional disruption, the reproductive system that at some point produces, transports and utilizes [sperm or eggs for male or female, respectively] for fertilization.”
That is the irony - there is a huge set of butthurt incels that are deeply incensed about what they see happening in culture. They seem to think it has been legislated. Honestly, part of me does wonder if big money is behind trying to annoy just enough of these types to tip things in the favor of the big money party - the Republicans.
Huge companies like Disney seem to almost be setting money on fire to do this…and it has zero to do with Democrats. It also seems to be making more Republicans with the sanctimonious aspect of it all. Representation is one thing, but some of this almost seems like its goes out of its way to give the finger to people that are otherwise kind of apolitical, thus radicalizing them and they blame Democrats for it all…and there is a ready set of Youtube “influencers” set up to get them agitated and outraged about all this, funneling them right into the douchebag universe of angry bros.
