Trans Activists: The Word "Vagina" Is Too "Triggering" for Trans People Without Vaginas. May We Suggest the More Inclusive "Front Hole" as a Replacement?
In the "not enough mind bleach in the world to blot out what I just read" category of the week, Healthline has decided that the word "vagina" is too triggering for trans people and so they will now use the term "front hole" in their sex education materials. No, really. Please keep in mind that these are the same people who for years have told us that toddlers need anatomically correct vocabularies in order to be properly aware of body parts, lest they become victims of sexual abuse.
But now, we are going to stop calling a vagina a vagina and call it a "front hole."
Let's start calling breasts "artificially implanted saline sacs" too, just to increase transculsivity on that score too.
I am totally down with this program of re-architecting 200,000 years of social custom regarding men and women in order to spare 0.01% of the population into feeling like they're "different."
Spoiler alert: You are different from most people, at least in this one way. I'm sure people in wheelchairs wince sometimes at the mention of walking and running, given that such mentions remind them that they've lost this ability. Shall we begin forbidding people from using the words "walk" and "run" to spare some feelings, too?
Why not? Maybe we should erase walking and running from physical reality while we're at it-- maybe all people should get around in wheelchairs so as not to make people who are actually wheelchair-bound feel "triggered."
Last week, "news" broke that nearly all heterosexuals -- and 75% of homosexuals, too -- would not date a trans person. It turns out that straight men prefer to date women, straight women prefer to date men, gay men prefer to date men, and gay women prefer to date women.
This was called "discrimination." Vice was very, very sad about it.
Interestingly, even those people (both straight and gay) open to dating trans people would mostly only date people born with the actual sex they're attracted to, not the "gender identity" that person claims.
In other words, even among the minority of lesbians open to dating trans people, the vast majority of them would only date trans men, which is another way of saying "biological women claiming now to be men." Lesbians open to dating trans people still want to date someone who's actually a woman, not a guy dressing like a woman.
Similarly, the even smaller percentage of gay men open to dating a trans person generally will only date a trans woman, also known as a "biological man who has transitioned, sort of, to appear as a woman."
In other words, people, both straight and gay, remain attracted to the actual sex they're sexually oriented to be attracted to, and do not just drop their basic sexual orientation because someone says "Now I'm the other one."
Apparently, trans activists are shocked that sex might be an important component in sexual attraction or sexual orientation. They've tried to rewire reality and claim that sex isn't important, that only expressed, performative "gender identity" matters -- but notice the terms aren't "gender identity attraction" or "gender identity orientation."
Oh, and there's that funny (bigoted!) little bit about the great majority of heterosexuals intending one day to have children as the ultimate product of a sexual union (not a gender identity union), and of course that is not possible with someone who has a nonfunctioning reproductive system due to drugs or surgeries.
But people who envision sex and coupling as directed towards family-formation must now drop their traditionist (bigoted!) preferences because it hurts trans people's feelings to be reminded that reproductive acts sometimes result in reproducing.
And sometimes, weirdly enough, that's the whole point of it.
We seem to have deviated quite far from the sexual left's previous slogan, "Love whoever you want." Now it's "Love who we tell you to love, bigot."
