Discriminating among kinds of discrimination
What we talk about when we talk about discrimination:
Equivocation in the first degree.
The word “discrimination” has a neutral meaning and a pejorative one.
The neutral one is just knowing the differences between things. If you have to sort stones out of a bowl of peas, you have to discriminate between stones and peas.
The pejorative one is treating people harshly for bad reasons or no reason. “Whites only” signs are discrimination in action.
Euan Weddell, aka “Sophie Molly,” is pretending that knowing a man is not a woman, aka discriminating between men and women, is the pejorative kind of discrimination when of course it’s not.
We don’t need to jump through that hoop to be legally recognized as women because we are women. And no matter how their legal status changes, they are not women.
Wait. Pot, meet kettle. You’re already supporting an ideology that pathologizes puberty, and condemns its practitioners to lifelong medicalization in pursuit of a goal they can never reach. If you believe that you are the sex you are not, you’re already delusional. And to top it all off, you’re demanding that everyone else accept and participate in your delusional belief. Now that’s disgusting.
Mister Molly is a walking, talking, singing (ugh!) instance of pathology. He’s actually doing a great job of demonstrating trans pathology to the world. I hope he keeps it up!
