David Marcus: calling representative Sarah McBride ‘Mister’ is not impolite, it’s just reality

Chaos erupted in Congress on Tuesday, when a Republican “browned a chamber member” to a chamber member. But maybe it was really just a case of a politician doing the unthinkable: telling the truth.

Rep. Keith Self, R-Texas, who presides over the Foreign Affairs of the House Subcommittee from Europe of the Committee, referred to the representative Trans Sarah McBride, D-Del., As “Mister McBride”, causing a Heated exchange That put the audience to stop. Classification of Democrat Bill Keating, Massachusetts, rode to the rescue of McBride.

“Mr. President, he is out of service!” Keating Tronó. “Mr. President, don’t you have decency?” Harumphed, channeling the well -used phrase of McCarthy audiences of the 1950s. “This is not decent.”

Now, we all understand that if we find a trans person at a party or a ball game, we can work with pronouns and not be a moron about it. But a Congress audience is not a private event, it is the official public discourse of our government. It must reflect objective reality.

In other words, Self did exactly the right thing in that official situation so as not to publicly sanction a deception.

During the last decade, from the moment Orange became the new black, our society has fought with how to show deference to those who wish to live as the genre they are not while pursuing public policies that protect women.

But that was always the wrong question. That type of accommodation for the idea that human beings can transform their gender would always unite us in the knots we face today. Female sportsor spaces only for women such as prisons, shelters and bathrooms.

It is as if many Americans, including many conservatives, would have been saying: “It is fine, this is to pretend, but we will follow it while nobody hurts.”

The problem is that the simple acceptance of the delusional position that everyone can choose their own genre hurts many people, especially all young children and adults who are seduced by almost divine power of supposedly overcoming nature itself.

“It is due to adults in the room who entertained the lie that I was born in the wrong body and needed to make the transition that I now suffer from irreversible damage to my body.” Prisha Mosley

It turns out that the next day in Capitol Hill, the independent ambassador, Prisha Mosley, attended the awareness of the detransitioners. With only 16 years, Prisha, who seemed sure she was really a child, had a double mastectomy, which now laments, but cannot undo.

“It is due to adults in the room who entertained the lie that I was born in the wrong body and needed to make the transition that I now suffer from irreversible damage to my body,” Mosley told Fox News Digital. “The truth is not transbian. It is never loving to lie.”

This happened largely because good and decent people who wanted to be polite have allowed the non -scientific and frankly absurd notion that people can change their genres to gain legitimacy, for at least be an opinion.

It is not a matter of opinion, it has never been a matter of opinion, and it will never be a matter of opinion.

Only a few days ago in Calgary, I ran into a protest against the policy of putting men in women’s prisons, and we talked about how, 10 years ago, people were nervous about questioning the quasi -religious transology even in private conversation. Today, reality can be spoken with pride and should be.

The philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein convincingly argued that language is not simply the glass of our thoughts, it is the driver of our thoughts. Once we allow the words “man” and “woman” to mean more than what the biological reality dictates, that choice leads us to madness and the irreversible consequences we are seeing now.

Perhaps all our efforts to accommodate the lie of the transgender during the last decade come from a true place of care and kindness. But it doesn’t matter, people are hurting a lot, and you have to stop at this time.

The process of restoration of reality on this subject will lead to uncomfortable moments and situations and even volatile as we saw in the collapse of Congress on Tuesday? Absolutely. Those who defend the truth will be called fans? Definitely.

But when we listen to stories such as prisha mosley, and many others whose lives were altered forever by the insidious lie of the transgender, we know that anyone and arrows occur to us, the acceptance of the lie makes us accomplicted.

At some point, a young woman or a man is contemplating the transition, willing to risk irreversible surgery or even her own fertility to try to become something they can never be. For your good, we must stop pretending and firmly replace our boots in the solid terrain of biological reality.
