What Is a Woman: The Erasure of One’s Identity

As Matt Walsh goes around asking the question “What is a Woman?” in his famous documentary, the gender battle wages on in athletic events and schools across the West. We are treated, almost on a daily basis, to new pronouns and concepts that are directly at odds with what we see and experience around us and what has been historically taught.

On the one hand, we are told that there are specific things that do make someone a man or a woman. Don’t believe me? My Windows desktop is constantly feeding me clickbait of one kind or another trying to tell me about things men or women are interested in, habits that I should avoid, or the latest in fashion trends.

As the image at right shows, when a man believes he’s a woman, he takes on certain behaviors and traits that we associate with womanhood and totally disregards the biology involved. So we have men on social media dressing as a woman, wearing makeup, and being invited to represent womanhood in front of Presidents and on beer promotions because of ESG.

Women were always diverse. The concept of the “tomboy” is not a new one, but typically referred to a girl that had interests that were typically aligned with boys (cars, trucks, action figures, etc.) and dressed like them to some degree, but never, until this generation, did we suggest that the tomboy was actually a boy!

Women are on a spectrum– each one is individually different, no matter what all the clickbait says. Just because a certain woman likes sports or video games doesn’t mean they are a man, just like if a man is a jeweler or a fashion designer makes him a girl.

Some things need to be immutable and not malleable if we are ever going to be able to define them. Even the rules in English (however crazy it can be) have to define the rule before we can mention the exceptions. And that’s a big problem for what’s currently happening– that the culture has decided to redefine the rules to include the exceptions because being an exception might make a person feel bad… but definitions don’t care how you feel, they are here to help us understand and operate in the world.

Instead, we’re choosing to erase some people’s identities in order to provide one for a minority, and then telling those people that they aren’t who they thought they were, and that what they’ve known to be true is actually false. I have a feeling that biology will always win.
