Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
Matt Walsh has been trying to get transgender gurus to tell him what a woman is.
Watching this video will be among the best 1 hour and 34 minutes you ever spent.
The only answer he gets is “a woman is a person who claims to be a woman, a person who self-identifies as a woman.” Ok, Walsh says, but what is a woman that the person claims to be? Repeating the unanswered question gets him labeled “transgenderphobic.” But what is that? And why is it phobic to ask what is a woman?
The answer is that transgender is a hoax and the gurus know it. That’s why they cannot say what a woman is.
According to the transgender gurus, there is sex and gender. Sex is biological, determined by your chromosomes, but gender is a social construct, they say. A person with a vagina, womb, ovaries, mammory glands, and capable of giving birth is defined by chromosomes as a woman. But that is not definitive. Gender, a social construct, has a say. The biological woman is not a woman unless she declares herself to be a women. If she declares herself to be a man, her declaration over-rules her chromosomes, and she is a man.
Confronted with this, Walsh asks the transgender gurus if it isn’t a fact that people sometimes make false statements. The gurus, or some of them, admit that people do sometimes tell lies. Walsh asks them if persons can also declare their race. Suppose I tell you I am black, would you believe me, he asks. His question is evaded. A female philosopher at Rhodes College in Memphis, Rebecca Tubel, actually raised the question in a scholarly journal, and she suffered intemperate attacks as did the journal Hypatia.
The editors apologized for the “pain” the article caused those claiming to be transgendered, but were fired anyway. No one explained why the prospect of a transrace person is hurtful to a trangendered person or why the transgendered opposition to transrace isn’t transracephobic. For that matter, no one has explained why women confronted with males in their bathrooms claiming to be women have no right to be offended and are dismissed as transgenderphobic.
If it is OK for a man to be so confused that he thinks he is a woman, why can’t a person be transspecies and think he is a horse or a chimpanzee or a Martian?
Trans means on or to the other side, across, such as transatlantic, or beyond. So transgender is beyond gender or to the other side of gender. Transrace is beyond race or to the other side of race. Transspecies means beyond species. In other words, transgender is a made up word, just as it is a made up condition, that makes no sense. What is the other side of gender? How does one go beyond gender? How is it that biological reality can be over-ruled by a person identifying as something that they are not?
It is nevertheless happening. It is now a university subject and soon will be a course of study leading to a degree. Transgender advocates are turning it into the latest fad, putting the idea into people’s heads that it is a cool thing to do. We have reached the point in our decadent decline when we can no longer differentiate a man from a woman.

To be a woman is a great thing as is being a man. None of us, none of us would be here without a man and woman. I am a proud man and I know many women who are proud of their gender. BTW for all you ‘woke’ idiots the word ‘proud’ has nothing to do with the ‘proud boys’ so please do not go there. If you are unhappy with your gender that is your business but it is not my business. You can be whoever you want. If you want to be a muskrat that is fine too. I just do not to have your sexual preference in my face. Please stop and live you lives without whatever obsessions drive you to demand ‘equal rights’ for your gender. Your gender is your gender and your unhappiness with it is not the worlds business. We don’t need to know.
The feminists and others popularized the use of the word gender. If someone wants to be a different gender or a muskrat, it really does effect everyone else. That is what all this nonsense is about. The sexually wrong can’t help but fuck everything up. The 133 different gender people insert it into everything they can.
I used to believe that homos could be homos as long as they keep it at home. What someone does in their own bedroom blah blah. I was wrong. It inevitably turns into them abusing children, creating more fags, public degeneracy, drag queen story hour, and psychotic lesbians.
Give them purple triangles and throw them in camps. Work will set them free.
Just as it was treated 50 years ago, gender dysphoria is a mental illness. “Experts” telling me that something is normal does not make it so.
I think it should be treated as a crime (along with sodomy). Lets stop bullshitting about what is mental illness.
The best test for gender is the Blindfold Test.
A blindfold is put on you. Then you are told to smell a finger. If the finger smells sweet it’s a woman. If the finger smells like shit it’s a man.
Brain scans are also highly effective.
Best lines in the vid?
“Can you tell me what a woman is?”
“No, I’m not a doctor or a biologist.”
“Are you cat?”
“No.
“Can tell me what a cat is?”
…Walks away…
AP, that’s a fascinating commentary on this topic.
Flawless logic IMO, that refutes the emotional tantrum arguments of the pathos minds and their inability to think with reason.
Bravo.
Why did God give women vaginas?
So men would talk to them.
Why do men have a hole in their penis? So their brains can get some oxygen now and then.
What’s the difference between a penis and a bonus? Your wife will always blow your bonus.
Why did cavemen drag cave women by their hair?
If they drug them by their feet they would fill up with dirt.
If it weren’t for that thing between their legs we would hunt them like deer.
Brilliant.
Just send them to school….
Michigan Attorney General Calls for ‘A Drag Queen For Every School,’ Says They ‘Make Everything Better’
Mauger tweeted, “‘Drag queens make everything better. Drag queens are fun,’ Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel says at a civil rights conference in Lansing while speaking out against what she describes as efforts to divide people. ‘A drag queen for every school,’ she adds.”

She is a fuzz-bumping, rug-muncher, so this should come as no surprise.
Except there is nothing wrong with blackface. Blackface is funny.
Great comment!
Time and again, it gets back to the fact that these ‘T-bone’ folks have severe mental health issues — and they’re trying to have US overlook them as if in doing so we’re learning or discovering something ‘profound’ or ‘meaningful’ …
In the end, though — a pig with a dozen colors of lipstick on is still a pig … no matter what the makeup ‘artist’ tries to convince US to the contrary.
My grandmother taught US, her grandchildren, to not make our problems someone else’s problems … to just work through them on our own (or with parental help) — but to never inflict our problems on those around US … I’ve always found it to be sound advice from a woman who never got past 3d grade in her formal schooling …
Excellent … thank you for your clear elucidation …
Drop trou….it is the only way to be sure.
Trust but verify: can always get a DNA sample (although the “vaks” may alter that too.)
Someone else who also had no God once said pretty much the same thing, “What is Truth?”
Allow me to drop a four letter word here.
SICK.
An entire society has to be very very sick to transition into such madness and be PROUD of it by actually spending tax-dollars to entertain the madness instead of treating it .
Mental confusion aside about the definition of either what a woman or a man is, based on their biological functions alone is not sufficient, deeper dissimilarities exist based on the difference of the brain itself. One’s biological gender can be determined from the structure of the brain alone.
But what we are dealing with here is not biological confusion but mental confusion which should be treated in a psychiatric clinic.
This documentary must be watched by everyone still with a shred of sense in their heads and just like the Masai therein who said never to go to the US we must never permit such disease to venture out of the US and seep into other societies.

To answer the question ‘what is a woman?’ should not require an advanced degree in rocket surgery.
A grown adult who is unable to offer a succinct answer to such a basic question should not be accepted in polite company. It’s horrifying to think that they vote, and mortifying to think many are in positions of power. As for their representation in the teaching profession, it’s enough to leave even the most articulate genuinely speechless.
A woman is an adult female human.
A female is that of the offspring bearing sex.
As an aside, in all of Walt’s dictionaries, ‘transgender’ only appears in those printed post ’90’s. Many also fail to define ‘transvestite’. That word began as ‘transvest’ which simply means to wear the clothes of the opposite sex.
With rational thinking like this, Walt will be getting an invitation from Mr O’Brien to come visit Room 101.
“Watching this video will be among the best 1 hour and 34 minutes you ever spent.”
I would not describe it with the adjective ‘best’. I would use words such as ‘evil’, ‘demonic’, ‘demented’, ‘horrifying’, ‘disgusting’, ‘abhorrent’, ‘perverted’, ‘criminal’ and so on.
Unfortunately it was all I expected and more.
May God bless Matt Walsh.
