There was another electric moment when Senator Kennedy asked the democrats’ witness, Kelly Robinson, to explain why we have women’s sports at all, if men and women are NOT biologically different? Why not just have unisex sports?
It’s a question we’ve all hoped to hear an answer for. And the anticipation was momentarily excruciating.
But it was ultimately disappointing. The trans advocate’s answer was, as you would predict, completely unsatisfying word salad. First, Ms. Robinson refused to simply agree or deny that any biological differences exist between men and women. Instead she just kept spouting marxist, pseudo-intellectual claptrap about social constructs of gender being distinct from biological sex.
Curiously, Ms. Robinson’s answer reminded us of Ms. Rowlings’ Twitter comment. Sex — biological sex — is easily provable. If in doubt, just check the undercarriage equipment. But GENDER, as Rowling points out, is a completely “unprovable essence.” It’s a meaningless phantom, a ghost of an idea. ‘Gender’ is a perfectly subjective concept that means whatever anyone thinks it means.
“What is a woman?” Nobody knows for sure! They circuitously answer, “a woman is a person who identifies as a woman.” And as Matt Walsh has asked until his vocal cords gave out, “yes, but what is THAT?”
