Transgender ideology is rife with paradox. This is one of the more important aspects because it illustrates the friction between a supposedly liberating dogma and its actual effects.
Gender stereotypes are, for the most part, harmful for the women and men that follow them. Like the cartoon above – the stereotype is that dresses are worn by women. Well we all know that clothing for the most part, has no gender and can be worn by anyone. But men are ‘not supposed’ to wear dresses because they are for women – men will feel social pressure not to wear a dress because of the arbitrary gender stereotypes.
So what is transgender ideology to do when it argues that wearing a dress, in fact, makes you a woman. Transgender ideology reinforces the stereotypical notion of gendered clothing and who is allowed to wear what. It maintains the status quo and is no way revolutionary.
Contrast this with the gender abolitionist radical feminist position – Let’s dispense with the notion of gender stereotypes altogether and celebrate gender non conforming behaviour because clothes are for people – the end. A woman in a suit or a man in a dress are simply that, a female and a male with clothing that matches their personality and goals for the day. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Wow. The better idea might be to dispense with the toxic notion of gender (sex stereotypes) altogether and let men and women dress however they please. Wouldn’t that be nice?
This is a key feature of almost every debate with the queer woke theorists – their arguments are based on a keenly negative facet of our society: gender stereotypes. To be a woman (or man) is to like and do X. It is the at the very root of oppressive patriarchal culture and thus trans ideology is also oppressive and regressive because of its adherence to toxic gendered norms and behaviour.
Imagine for just a second that, as the Second wave postulated, that men and women could dress as they please, act as they please, be who they please without worrying about what the gender gremlin has to say about it. It would be amazing.
Gender non conformity is what needs to be accepted in society. For example wearing a dress and make up should be acceptable male and female behaviour, period. What isn’t contested is the fact that wearing a dress doesn’t and will never change your sex.
This quote from “The Sexist Pseudoscience of ‘gender identity'”
“the sexist pseudoscience of “gender identity” is still written into their literature. This is of course inevitable, because without “gendered stereotypes” there would be no markers by which to identify anyone as transgender. Whether one thinks of it as a utopian dream or dystopian nightmare, had the feminists of the 1970s and 1980s achieved their aims there would just be women and men with a variety of jobs, interests, clothes and hobbies. Transgenderism can only exist if one believes that there are appropriate personalities and behaviours for each sex – otherwise what would be left to “trans”? Were this sexist social lens to be removed, girls who wear trousers and enjoy scrapping and boys in pink who bake would be seen and valued as the children they are.”
