Colt Keo-Meier & Diane Ehrensaft (eds.)
The Gender Affirmative Model: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Supporting Transgender and Gender Expansive Children
Washington, DC: American Psychological Association, 2018

I’m ancient enough to remember candy cigarettes — not bad for a sugar rush, best as I can recall. What a way to advertise addiction to the kiddos, right? That fell out of favor long ago, along with the Joe Camel logo and the Flintstones advertising Winston ciggies, for obvious reasons. (more…)

We might be at a critical point in history. It is possible that the Left’s vilification of all things they dislike has reached its zenith, and will soon begin its downward arc towards a more realistic understanding of history. What’s driving it is the rise of transgenderism and its odious step-sibling, transgender identity politics.

أبيجيل شرير
ضرر لا رجوع فيه: جنون التحول الجنسي يغوي بناتنا
نيويورك: دار ريجنيري للنشر، 2020

انتشر وباء في الآونة الأخيرة للفتيات المراهقات اللائي يعلنن أنهن مصابات بخلل في الهوية الجنسية وأنهن يصبحن “متحولات”. من المنظور الليبرالي الأبيض اللطيف، قد يبدو أن هذا هو الحاجز الذي كسره جنود “الحقوق المدنية”، لكن أبيجيل شرير تقول في كتابها الممتاز، “ضرر لا رجوع فيه”، إنه ليس كذلك. وبدلاً من ذلك، تجادل بأن الفتيات المراهقات اللائي يصبن بخلل في الهوية الجنسية ما هو إلا تطور جديد لظاهرة قديمة ومعروفة. يمكن للمرء أن يطلق على هذه الظاهرة بدعة (more…)

Abigail Shrier
Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters
New York: Regnery Publishing, 2020

There has recently been an epidemic of teen girls declaring that they have gender dysphoria and becoming “trans.” From the nice, white liberal perspective, this may appear to be a barrier broken by the foot soldiers of “civil rights,” but Abigail Shrier says in her excellent book, Irreversible Damage, that it is not. She instead argues that teen girls getting gender dysphoria is only a new twist to an old, well-known phenomenon. (more…)

After Stephen Breyer announced he was retiring from the Supreme Court in January of 2022, Biden fulfilled his 2020 campaign promise to nominate a black female for the position. While every rational person sees the problem with electing someone based on his skin color and/or gender, the nominee, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, should also feel somewhat disrespected for being chosen predicated on a campaign commitment to elect a black woman (not a particular black woman, just a black woman) instead of her professional and personal merit.

I’m a blond bimbo girl, in a fantasy world
Dress me up, make it tight, I’m your dolly!

We live in an era of apparently rampant transsexualism. The media insist upon spotlighting various gender-benders and forcing them down the throat of a captive audience, at which point vinegar-drinking moral guardians insist that the captive audience reiterates the lies (more…)

I’d been vaguely and reluctantly aware of the term “gender reveal party” for years, and without bothering to look into it, I always presumed it was some wacky sort of shindig that trannies threw when they wanted to expose their shiny new $100,000 surgical cybernetic genitals to their friends, family, clergy, therapists, nieces, nephews, probation officers, and meth dealers.

Jim Goad
Gender Psychosis: Insanity and Sexual Identity
Pine Lake, Georgia: Obnoxious Books, 2020

One of the strengths of this new collection of short pieces about today’s sexual confusions is that the author has no qualifications for writing them. Qualifications for writing about sex go mainly to the sources of our confusion. Thanks to an overabundance of experts, (more…)

I was at one of my Twelve Step meetings the other day, and as happens to all such groups sooner or later, they are going through their “God is sexist” moment.

In case you don’t know, all the Twelve Step groups – Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Gamblers Anonymous, and a host of others – are “God-based” programs. (more…)

What would politics be without sex scandals? Everyone knows lawmakers often engage in lurid affairs and try to keep their private lives out of the public eye. When they get caught, it’s front-page news and red meat for late-night comedy.

The latest political sex scandal is different from the past ones, however. It doesn’t feature a powerful man frequenting high-end hookers or jet-setting off with a hot young staffer. (more…)

New York: Bloomsbury Publishing, 2019

I discovered Douglas Murray when he was interviewed by the Hoover Institute’s Peter Robinson. What struck me about Murray was that he used phrases found in Counter-Currents articles. (more…)
