Lady Gaga says she feels “very protective in this moment” for not only Dylan but the trans community as a whole, but it’s possible to do that without celebrating a man who was brave enough to slap on some lipstick and portray girlhood as crying too much and buying too many clothes.
Read MoreWomen are furious after Lionsgate sponsored an interview with famed author Judy Blume by trans social Tiktok influencer, Dylan Mulvaney.
Judy Blume's iconic coming-of-age classic Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret was adapted for film and received positive reviews. Savannah Edwards, who has a TikTok following of over one million followers, wrote on her Substack that women needed to take their daughters to see the film. “Your daughters deserve to hear the truth: Growing up female is rough, but it’s beautiful. Our bodies, the way they’re designed, are a miracle. Being born female is an incredible birthright. This movie is a celebration of the foundation of womanhood, the moment when it begins for each of us.”
After Mulvaney’s interview with Blume, Edward’s said, “I’m not offended, I’m pissed.” She tweeted, “The sad part is, #ItMeMargaret is perfect. Damn near perfection, one of the best movies of the year. It’s pro-female, and what a breath of fresh air that is in a culture that treats female puberty like a disease. Why would you ruin that by bringing Dylan into this? @Lionsgate.”
I’m not offended, I’m pissed. You couldn’t find any actual women to do this interview? I’m sick of seeing his face. I’m sick of companies using him to pander to women like me. I’m tired of ideologues treating female puberty like it’s something any man can do. https://t.co/cAvaalZJRE

Other women across social media expressed they no longer wished to take their daughters to see the film, would no longer buy Blume’s books, and wanted the time and money back they invested in the film.
Many other women expressed disappointment in Blume herself. “Shame on you for betraying girls,” said Twitter user Taru Ann. “The REAL most vulnerable people in societies. To suck up to privileged men like this, who hate girls and use their existence only to gain attention, false victim status and money! You could have tried to be brave, like many women with more to lose.”

Judy Blume received backlash after speaking out in support of fellow author, J.K. Rowling, who repeatedly stands up for women’s sex-segregated spaces. “I love her. I am behind her 100 percent as I watch from afar.”
Blume later released a statement to clarify her position, that she merely empathized with Rowling over online harassment. “I stand with the trans community and vehemently disagree with anyone who does not fully support equality and acceptance for LGBTQIA+ people. Anything to the contrary is total bullsh**.”
But you can’t support women’s sports and sex-segregated spaces while preaching total acceptance of the trans community, who want access to women’s locker rooms, bathrooms, prisons, shelters, and to play on their sports teams. As William “Lia” Thomas noted, how can you say he’s not a woman and not allow him to swim against women?
Mulvaney asked Blume for advice on how young creatives like himself can create content about his experience without societal backlash. Blume says, “You know what? You can’t be scared.”
In contrast, Mulvaney released a video last year issuing a not-so-passive-aggressive threat to women who wouldn’t bow down to his gender ideology. “I am also very nervous for you just because, hopefully, soon transphobia won’t be as tolerated online but your tweets are forever, and I don’t want those to come back and haunt you. Okay?”
Mulvaney has also expressed on his Tiktok (to over 10 million followers) that calling him a man and using he/him pronouns should be illegal.
Though women are disappointed with Blume, they should take her advice and not be scared to speak the truth: Dylan Mulvaney is a man and will always be a man.
Gender is not a social construct. Sex and gender are meaningfully intertwined. According to the etymology, the two words have been and are used interchangeably. Feminists can take the blame for morphing gender into a role in an attempt to break away from social restraints and undesired expectations, but a role is something you can either fill or play. Some aspects of womanhood cannot be mimicked. Only stereotypes can be replicated. Transwomen are method actors and activists like Dylan Mulvaney deserve Razzies, not Oscars.

Media Matters could have saved some time and plainly wrote: “Stuckey is a danger because she’s a sincere Christian, has the gull to be vocal about it, and wants her audience to vote.”

The book is about a boy who says he’s a walrus, and his mother takes drastic measures to make him live this reality. It was referred to as “problematic.”

Read MoreYou’ve probably heard USA Today named Rachel Levine as a “Woman of the Year.” That’s a pretty remarkable accomplishment, considering Levine is a man. He was born a man, remains a man, and will die a man, yet has excelled above more than 166 million legitimate contenders.

Read MoreI’ve been called a homophobe a lot over the past two weeks, and I don’t honestly care. Most of the negativity comes from groomers and a bunch of confused kids who feel as though you’re denying their very existence if you do not acknowledge their identity. Well, it’s not about me. It’s certainly not about their fragile egos or lack of self-esteem. It’s about our children while at one of the most vulnerable and malleable times in their lives. I wanted to inform parents, and I did my job.

There are many things I wish I could change about Trump, and I’m not afraid to voice my anger when he inspires it, but I will not accept the lie that Biden and the progressive agenda are best for the country and the world. It is a bald-faced lie.
Hobby Lobby once had to fight a fine for refusing to create a possibility that would end the survivability of embryos. Now, Cruz and Britt are holding the healthcare of millions hostage if states conclude that the cost of IVF is too many lives of incredibly young children.
“Christ is King” should not be known as an antisemitic phrase, but Christians should be aware that some very hateful people, who believe Hitler was “cool,” are trying to co-opt it. We don’t have to stop proclaiming “Christ is King,” but we should call out the wolves in poorly made sheep costumes.
In the beginning of Pearl’s recap video of the debate, she claims everyone is always trying to sell something and she’s just trying to tell the truth. This is ridiculous. Pearl is selling something: victim culture to men.

They didn’t choose to lose their children. And, yes, they are children because they are progeny. They are human—the same species as their parents—and they were alive. So, why isn’t the pro-choice crowd celebrating accountability against a corporation that allowed their choice to be taken away?
Loss of life is always tragic, especially a young life. But that doesn’t grant the license to lie.
God doesn’t need a PR team to edit him and become more presentable to mankind; we need to seek a greater understanding of God to grasp the fullness of his goodness. The same God in Genesis and Revelation is the same God in the Gospels, and he’s been perfectly loving the entire time, even in demonstrations of his wrath and judgment.
The viral clip of Nikki Haley talking about her experience as a “brown” girl, wasn’t brought up out of nowhere to bash America or gain sympathy. She was asked a question by Dasha Burns and responded. If people on the Right don’t want people to talk about their experiences with racism, they should stop creating racist experiences for them to talk about.
