Pro-girls, Pro-women Refresher
What I Stand For
After writing three essays in a row that were fairly hard-hitting on why gender ideology doesn’t impress me, I wanted to remind my readers that I advocate fiercely for girls and women. I do this because I want girls and women to have safe spaces to gather with other girls and women, to experience fairness in sports, to protect their bodies from harm, and to enjoy the feminine spirit and power that was passed down to them through generations of their matriarchs and ancestors before them.
When young, it is often best to pause decisions that alter one’s body and life forever. Perspective and wisdom come with maturity and experience. A focus on family closeness and connections will have a better chance of bringing a lifetime filled with precious moments and contentment than rash, rushed, and impulsive decisions to alter one’s body with drugs and surgeries. I also advocate for protective parents who are passionately and lovingly trying to do what is best for their children in the present and with their futures in mind.
So with that said, please review three essays of what I stand for.
A Message to Girls About Their Bodies
Protective Parents are Not Hateful Transphobes
As we move beyond this current culture that lost its way, sacrificing many kids and shattering many families as it did, some will forget or bury the reality of what really happened. Kaeley Triller Harms suggests how we can learn from the past in an article, As We Celebrate the Return of Sanity, Never Forget How We Lost It.
She says and I echo, “I want people to know about the many other grieving parents who lost this battle and had to watch their brilliant young daughters undergo double mastectomies and pump their bodies full of testosterone because a compromised medical industrial complex convinced them this was the solution to their trauma-related issues.” You may choose to look away or pretend it didn’t happen, but it did. I watched it happen before my eyes. I’m a witness, and I won’t forget. But after I’m gone, how will the story be told?
Lisa Shultz advocates for parents’ and women’s rights. She is deeply concerned about the influence of gender identity ideology and the lack of comprehensive, ethical care for children and vulnerable adults.
The "catchphrase" for the Holocaust is "Never forget." (Unfortunately, some are already forgetting!)
In the future, we will need a similar "catchphrase" for gender ideology because many will deny that it happened or that they were part of it, and future generations will have a hard time believing it did. As happened during the Holocaust, even now, while it is actually happening, many are in denial about the many thousands of children, teens and vulnerable young adults being harmed.
I know this is not the decimation of a people. However, it is still an atrocity with widespread harm. Besides, something shouldn't have to rise to the level of the Holocaust to be cause for concern.
A very thoughtful article.
