Every man on Earth owes his life to a woman

Every man on Earth owes his life to a woman.

This is a very simple, undeniable fact.

No man would exist if a woman did not do the difficult, dangerous work of incubating him inside her female body.

It doesn't matter if you think your mother was a bad mother. It doesn't matter if she left you on a stranger's doorstep. You would not exist if she did not physically make you.

Ovulation, menstruation, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding - all part of the biological work women do to continue human life - including yours. Stop acting like they are a sign of weakness or subhumanity. You would not exist without those female biological functions you find so unspeakably gross.

I'm not arguing for matriarchy nor the worship of a mother goddess. I'm simply arguing for recognizing and accepting the fact that every man on Earth owes his life to a woman.

You don't have to "bow down" to women/mothers. Just be mature and honest and grateful enough for the reproductive work that led to your very existence that you won't 1) impose that work on unwilling women; 2) punish that work; 3) denigrate that work; or 4) erase that work.

Thank you and good day.

A conversation between MRAs

MRA1: The most oppressed people on Earth are men like us who are not getting all the male privilege to which our dicks should entitle us.

MRA2: Hear hear! Women don't pay me the attention they owe me. So how do we get them to center us in everything they do?

MRA1: Hear me out. We use transsexuals.

MRA2: Wait, what?

MRA1: We start out simple: "Transwomen are women, period." This makes an opening in the category "woman."

MRA2: Wait, you mean, chicks with dicks?

MRA1: Yeah man, but nevermind porn for a second OK? We say they're just chicks, period. This will be the easy part. Nobody wants to accept that some males are very feminine, nobody even wants to think about SRS. *shivers*

MRA2: Geez, bro.

MRA1: Right? They'll want to hand-wave it all away, like yes, sure, transwomen are women, they're weirdos but I'm liberal and super-tolerant of weirdos like women who think they're just as human as men, black people who think they're just as human as white people, and gay people who think gay sex is normal. *snicker*

MRA2: I don't mind some girl on g-

MRA1: I said nevermind porn for a second! God.

MRA2: Sorry.

MRA1: My point is, they'll just want to shove transwomen into their "approved weirdo box" so they can point to it and feel extra cool!

MRA2: Pfft. Libtards.

MRA1: I know right? Anyway, then we get to the harder part, where we re-define "transwoman."

MRA2: What do you mean?

MRA1: We say that what makes a dude a transwoman is a special feeling inside. A woman feeling.

MRA2: But won't the feminazis protest that there is no "woman feeling"?

MRA1: Yeah, even though we all know women are like delicate little children inside, while men have to be the adults and do all the work and fighting.

MRA2: I know, they have it so easy.

MRA1: Yeah, but we're not allowed to say all that out loud, so instead we just leverage how gross female biology is!

MRA2: OMG periods are so gross.

MRA1: Don't even get me started on breastfeeding.

MRA2: So gross! Boobs are to make my penis happy, not to feed babies!

MRA1: Anyway. We say that to define women as human females is to reduce them to their female parts, which everybody knows are gross.

MRA2: Isn't that like saying the phrase "black people" reduces people to their epidermises?

MRA1: Exactly! And we all know we're supposed to be colorblind, right? We're supposed to pretend black people are human even though they aren't white! We're supposed to pretend women are human even though they aren't male! Liberals want us to politely pretend, well quid pro quo, they should be willing to pretend penises are female!

MRA2: What? No. No way, man! Won't actual transsexuals protest this? I mean, they want SRS, right? Not just to call their penises female?

MRA1: Don't worry about that, nobody wants to listen to a tranny, they'll just want to use trannies as disgust tolerance merit badges!

MRA2: Oh, right. Genius.

MRA1: So, we go for: Anybody with a dick who claims special lady feelings is a transwoman. No dysmorphia required, no transition required. We can claim to be transwomen, but still keep our dicks. If we push it far enough we can even keep our neckbeards.

MRA2: Whoa.

MRA1: I know, right? Feminism is about women. Only women belong in women's spaces. But transwomen are women. And any dude is a transwoman if he says so. So any dude can claim the right to women's attention and care just by claiming special lady feelings!

MRA2: This can't work. Even liberals aren't that dumb.

MRA1: We'll see.

The psychological underpinnings of liberal support for transgender identity politics

It really is this simple:

• If you aren't disgusted by transwomen, you won't have to lie to yourself about them.
• If you don't hate women, you won't erase femaleness or feminism.
• And if you aren't terrified of men, you'll hold them responsible for the violence they commit.

Disgust, hatred and fear. Every emotion you project onto TERFs.

THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE.

Gender charts and graphics

I am no graphic designer, but I often try to get my ideas across visually, whether in charts or graphics. I have gathered most of them here for easy access.

Rachel Dolezal vs. Bruce Jenner: The Real Difference

There are, of course, a slew of new editorials out which purport to explain the difference - the identity politickers of the Left are tying themselves in pretzels to justify transgenderism while decrying transracialism, even though they have made this bed:

• Don't reduce women to vaginas? Don't reduce black people to epidermises.
• We're all female in the womb? We all descend from Africa.
• Intersex? Mixed Race.
• Infertile? Albino. (Albino Africans in Tanzania are hunted and killed because of attitudes like yours!)
• No shared girlhood? No shared black childhood.
• You can't police identities? WELP.

Anyhoo, the difference between how the Left treats transgenderism and transracialism is both simple and obvious.

Rachel is a villain because the Left does not believe in black brains (or at least - they know better than to admit such a belief.)

Bruce is a hero because the Left does believe in lady brains.

What's the difference between the idea of black brains and the idea of lady brains?

"Black brain" erases the experience of racist socialization. Some men experience racist socialization, so that experience cannot be erased.

"Lady brain" erases the experience of feminine socialization. No men experience feminine socialization, so that experience can be erased, with glee.

This is also why we can have an essay on how Rachel Dolezal is not a black woman because she did not grow up as a black girl, when no such standard holds for Laverne Cox or Janet Mock.

HTH!

[More thorough take on this issue here: Sex and Race and Boundaries on the Left.]

Editing to add: For those asking why Dolezal couldn't work for civil rights and socialize with black people as a white person: 1) I agree, and 2) Why are we not allowed to ask why Jenner couldn't simper in expensive lingerie on a magazine cover as a man?

Transgender identity politics and brainsex: the epitome of pseudoscience

Brainsex is the centuries-old, conservative idea that men and women have different brains - resulting in innately different personalities, which just happen to serve male supremacy. This is Jon Ronson, quoting 19th century doctor Gustave ale Bon:

Meanwhile, in 2015, male people become female via brainsex. What does a female brain mean? According to transwomen quoted here it means you like "being dominated and fucked in bed," are "super emotional and dramatic about silly things;" et cetera.

Brainsex now is just as sexist as brainsex was in the 1800s. However, the sexism of brainsex is not my topic today. As someone who values critical inquiry, what bothers me even more than the blatant sexism is the sheer level of anti-science thinking required to accept that transgenderism proves brainsex when in fact it disproves brainsex

WTF

If your thesis is that male humans and female humans have different brains, you must define male and female and those definitions must STICK. Male = sperm producer. Female = ova producer. The existence of males/sperm-producers who supposedly have "ladybrain" means THAT'S NOT A LADYBRAIN. 

THIS COPING METHOD OF CHANGING YOUR DEFINITIONS TO DISGUISE THE FAILURE OF YOUR HYPOTHESIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD.

P.S. for those who think the existence of (sexist, anti-scientific) brainsex theory differentiates transgenderism from transracialism/#wrongskin, I give you THE HISTORY OF BRAINRACE THEORY.

Stop bending yourselves in pretzels and just accept that human personality isn't innately sexed any more than it is innately racialized.
