Leaving? Allowing someone to speak their opinion and you the opportunity to disagree all without personal attacks. That is why I am in FAIR.

Leaving doesn’t stop another from speaking their opinion. Free speech means everyone has a platform to be heard without threats or cancelling from life, not that others have an obligation to listen.

My “opinion” is that this article completely distorts the actual movie, intentionally misquoting it until I pointed it out, and makes assertions that are demonstrably false about both the movie and child gender “transitions.”

The kind of baloney propoganda pushed in this article is free and abundant. While I’m not cancelling my subscription right now, the respect I once had for FAIR has mostly evaporated.

Yes. The article was filled with baloney. I can't understand why FAIR published it.

Precisely, why published, why?

Absolutely! What is a Woman? actually highlights the absurdity of where we are today. Interesting to see no mention of the Canadian dad who has not been allowed to parent his child because the mother decided trans was the only way to go. The author wistfully says, "We can protect kids and families from unscrupulous doctors without prohibiting the responsible doctors from deciding what is best for their patients" is such BS because all who believe they are in the wrong body are affirmed immediately. My friend has been going through this with her biologically female child for several years, and doctors, like those exposed in the film, are happy to affirm, make loads of money, destroy families and most significantly ruin children's lives. This author's opinion is obviously tainted by a strong dislike for the filmmaker, or he would have included the adult trans man's (TRevoices) who knows he'll die young and forever need medical intervention.

Thanks for not leaving before writing the above. You have given me more to think about and as a result I will read the article again and look for a different perspective. This is a difficult issue for me. It seems so clear and yet so many have a very different view. I think our politics are probably similar, but I am trying to make sure I move beyond that to get a clear view of the opposing ideas. Thanks again for commenting.
