Nancy Mace of South Carolina and other members of the House of Representatives are fighting a valiant and important battle to keep men out of women’s bathrooms in the United States Congress. It is a wholly common-sense measure.
As Speaker Mike Johnson bluntly told reporters, “Let me be unequivocally clear. A man is a man and a woman is a woman. And a man cannot become a woman.”
It is that simple.
This is a battle against the relentless redefinition of humanity and reality. It is also a battle that needs to happen and be supported by every person of good will.
If you cannot objectively define male and female, you cannot speak sensibly about humanity.
If you cannot objectively define male and female, you can speak sensibly about reality.
If you cannot objectively define male and female, you cannot speak sensibly about sexuality, marriage, parenthood, and the family.
If you cannot objectively define male and female, you cannot speak sensibly about God’s very image and likeness in creation.
If you cannot define male and female, you cannot protect women and girls, which is what every honorable society does.
Those that fail to do so are not honorable. That is where we find ourselves today.
Focus on the Family supports the strong boldness of Rep. Mace, Speaker Johnson and their colleagues standing strong for reality.
But we must also point out an important inconsistency among some opponents of “trans” -intrusion. Representative Nancy Mace unfortunately demonstrated this contradiction in a November 20 post on X.
In an effort to curtail a bit of the “progressive” backlash against her, Rep. Mace proudly proclaimed to the world, “We support gay marriage, and voted for the Respect for Marriage Act twice.”
What Mace and others who say such things fail to understand is that same-sex marriage is the ideological mechanism that delivered us directly to this present trans moment. They are two parts of the same effort.
Same-sex marriage made the humanity-challenging claim that a husband or wife, mother or father can be equally and adequately replaced by someone of the same sex with no ill-effect.
“Nothing to worry about here, and everything to celebrate!” was the claim pushed upon all of us. It effectively erased any functional meaning of male or female. That is precisely how the gay rights movement brought us the trans movement.
There is a direct line from one to the other and it has everything to do with sex subjectivism.
This is why it is certainly no coincidence that Obergefell v. Hodges, the Supreme Court decision that created a constitutional “right” to same-sex marriage, was decided June 26, 2015 and Bruce Jenner famously appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine dressed up as a woman at that very moment: July 1, 2015.
In fact, the article highlighting Jenner’s revolutionary adventure appeared online the day before the Obergefell decision was announced: June 25, 2015. There was literally no pause between the two developments.
We all saw a literal seamless transition from the biggest win of gay rights over marriage to the launch of the transgenderism movement.
Good people fighting for women’s protections against trans intrusion like Nancy Mace, J.K. Rowling, and Megyn Kelly must recognize that the rhetoric that delivered same-sex marriage delivered the erasure of both male and female in any meaningful way. Trans madness was the unmistakable, logical conclusion. Just follow the one single thread linking both of them: the redefinition of humanity by attacking the objective necessity of male and female for the family.
