Pitt students petition university to cancel "transphobic" speaker events
More than 2,000 people have signed a petition circulated by students at the University of Pittsburgh objecting to events scheduled on Pitt’s campus featuring speakers who “advance a platform of hate and transphobia.”
This the usual trans nonsense, but it's worth looking a little closer, since this is an "institution of higher learning" (from which I hold two degrees).
Point #1. A phobia is an irrational fear. Nobody fears transexuals.
Point #2. If I propose that biological men should not be allowed to compete in womens' sports, that is not denying that they exist. It is simply refusing to formally accept and implement their delusions. Consider the Garden of Eden, Adam & Eve were allowed to eat from any tree except one. Was G-d trying to starve them? Of course not. And if "trans-women" want to live their lives as though they were truly women, that's fine. The people they interact can accept the delusion IF THEY LIKE, or not accept it. "We" cannot compel others to patronize our delusions..They just can't inject themselves into a situation where BIOLOGICAL women are disadvantaged. What is so controversial about that?
Point #3. There is no such thing as a "trans-man" or a "trans-woman." Biology is fixed, even if you decide to mutilate your body to further the pretense. A man is a man and a woman is a woman. Why is this controversial?
