Scenes of women being threatened for talking about gender ideology have become commonplace. This has to change.
In almost all areas of politics, the idea of hearing women’s voices is celebrated. Men are encouraged to take a backseat in boardroom meetings, to let women’s voices be heard. Politicians wear ‘I am a feminist’ t-shirts to celebrate how much they supposedly care about women’s rights. New laws are proposed to protect women’s ability to engage in public life, from making misogyny a hate crime to enforcing gender quotas in workplaces. And on a weekly basis, awareness is raised across media platforms about the need to hear more women in everything from STEM to social media, football to finance.
It seems women are encouraged to speak in all areas of life, except when they have something to say about gender ideology. Scenes of women being heckled, threatened, assaulted and left to fend for themselves, all for the crime of talking about sex-based rights, have become commonplace. Perhaps the most battered gender-critical activist is Kellie-Jay Keen (also known as Posie Parker), who was forced to flee a rally in New Zealand after being kettled, crushed and attacked by pro-trans activists. No irony was lost on the shrieking opponents of Keen, who were shutting down a ‘Let Women Speak’ event, opposed to the idea that it is women who should decide who is allowed to enter women-only spaces, and not transgender women or violent activists.
