Trans Activists Don’t Want Compassion. They Want Science Denial And Heresy
To many trans activists, compassion and respect requires something those bound by either scientific or Judeo-Christian beliefs cannot give.
To the uninitiated, adding “gender identity” to non-discrimination laws simply signals society’s acceptance of, and compassion for, transgendered people. But in actuality, the trans movement assaults every person’s biological identity by framing sex as something “assigned at birth” then distinguishing that mere happenstance from how an individual identifies—as male or female.
That is key because it means that underlying every gender-identity law—whether municipal, state, or federal—is the premise that everyone’s sex is “assigned at birth.” In essence, gender-identity laws treat us all as transgendered, no matter how few people might actually identify that way.
Federalist senior contributor Stella Morabito first exposed this hidden aspect of the trans agenda three years ago in “The Trans-Agenda Seeks to Redefine Everyone.” Morabito noted that at its root the agenda isn’t about the transgendered:

It’s mostly about everybody else. It’s all about changing you and your self-concept. As fringy as they may sound, injecting such lies into our language—‘the pregnant man’ and the push to separate the word ‘pregnancy’ from the word ‘woman,’—are clear signals that we are moving steadily towards erasing all gender distinctions in the law. And why should we care? Because erasing gender distinctions, especially as they apply to childbearing and rearing, would serve to legally un-define what it means to be human. A new legal definition of human—as neither male nor female—would apply to you whether you like it or not.
