I am so happy this was posted. Much of the propaganda I see from proponents of "gender ideology" is hate speech similar to racist or religious hate speech.

I wanted to add that I am a FORMER democrat turned independent. I simply cannot stomach or support a political party that is throwing women under the bus. That does not mean I have love for the Republican Party. I am simply saying I am politically homeless and will be screwed no matter which party is in power.
Good for you. I don't understand why you have to bend all backwards to reassure yourself you are not a republican for prioritizing women's rights. And why you reject that a Republican can not be a feminist. Most people do not agree with every single last position that a political party holds. That would be normal. I personally don't love either party, I think it is called compromise.
If you don't love either party then don't get bent out of shape that I'm not a republican. And if you don't agree with everything a party stands for then there's no logical reason for you to reject the democrat party. At least adopt a consistent position.
I am so sorry if I gave the wrong tone. I am not bent out of shape about anything. I freely admit I pick and choose from the two parties, and admit to neither in closed company. I just know being a republican doesn't always mean you can't be feminist.
SUZ, You are correct. My mother-in-law was a Barry Goldwater Republican, and a feminist. A lot of the boundaries around these sorts of categories are way more fluid than people think.

I share your position.
