	I need somebody.
	Help!
	Not just anybody.
	Help!
	You know I need someone.
	Help!
	When I was young, so much younger than today.
	I never needed anybody's help in any way.
	But now these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured.
	Now I find the gent mind, I'm opening up the doors.
	Help me if you can, I'm feeling down.
	And I do appreciate you being round.
	Help me get my feet back on the ground.
	Won't you please, please help me?
	Well, this is Jim Fetzer, your host on The Raw Deal.
	I am a host of The Raw Deal.
	I'm going to spend a fair amount of time on this absolutely sensational film, What is a Woman?
	You're going to love it.
	I am so impressed.
	But before I get there, I want to say a few things about all our preoccupation with race and gender and, you know, the bands and all that sort of stuff, because it's reached a point of absurdity now.
	There are various kinds of knowledge we can possess about the world or.
	Not.
	Including.
	For example, when it comes to what's known as synthetic knowledge that's informative about the world.
	We can draw distinctions between, for example, our knowledge of the laws of science as it include the laws of physics.
	Chemistry, biology, psychology and so forth.
	Which cannot be violated and cannot be changed.
	Versus particular historical facts, you know, reports about just to offer a controversial example 9-11 right now.
	Someone calling themselves 9-11 revisionists who are seeking to defend Judy Woods account of directed energy weapons having been used to destroy the twin powers.
	In a.
	I was a very strong proponent of judy way back when actually in two thousand six eleven november.
	I began interviewing her on my radio shows where i was in pioneering interaction between computer and radio so i give the report on the radio but everyone go to her website.
	Can we discuss videos and stories and reports and charts and all that we did this.
	Fifteen times over the next couple years.
	Fifteen times!
	And when I organized the first conference for scholars for 9-11 Truth on the Science and Politics of 9-11 right here in Madison at the Radisson, I gave Judy Wood an unprecedented three hours to speak.
	Three hours!
	Now, of course, in my academic life, I've been involved in hundreds of conferences, conventions and the like.
	No one at any of those events or any other of which I am aware was ever granted three hours to speak.
	But I gave Judy Wood three hours.
	Nevertheless, There is a point where I no longer thought dues was a plausible account, though I regard it as far superior to nanothermite, which to my understanding is still being pushed by some members of architects and engineers, which is among the reasons I regard architects and engineers and Judy Wood and her group to be limited hangouts because they're promoting false accounts of how the towers were destroyed.
	But not only that, they will not address neither Who was responsible or why and without understanding who was responsible, why you cannot get a firm grasp of what happened?
	Well, when it comes down to particular facts.
	There are, in addition to the laws of nature, by the way, in particular facts such as whether a Boeing 767 hit the South Tower.
	The evidence is very striking because as the laws of physics cannot be violated, it cannot be changed.
	If we're witnessing a violation of laws of physics, you know you're witnessing a fantasy, a fabrication, a vague.
	The plane is traveling too fast in the videos to be structurally sound.
	It would have come apart physically in the air.
	Pilots for 9-11 Truth have documented this in their 9-11 intercepted video.
	What's the plane makes it impossible entry into the building is simply disappears into the building in the same number of frames its whole length and the same number of frames that passes through its whole length in the air.
	What's up physical impossibility there then you have the nose out phenomenon of the nose actually breaks through at the other end what's ridiculous and those most fragile part of the plane.
	And it couldn't possibly have that been a real plane.
	Have traversability to come out intact as we see in the video so so we know something is wrong.
	Well, there is another kind of knowledge known as analytic.
	We're not talking about the laws of the physics or the world or particular facts about events in the world, but we're talking about the meaning of words and the nature of mathematics.
	These are things that merely depend upon.
	Assumptions that define a language framework.
	For example, we can know if John is a bachelor, then John is unmarried.
	Because a bachelor, the word bachelor is defined as unmarried adult male.
	So if John's a bachelor, then John's unmarried.
	If, now that doesn't mean John is a bachelor, that's a question about empirical fact.
	Then you have elementary mathematics.
	Two plus two equals four.
	You can prove this.
	If you take, for example, you know, use a stroke methodology and two remedies at two strokes, two strokes plus two strokes equals four strokes.
	There are ways in which you can prove this, but it's all something that does not require observation, experiment, or measurement.
	Now, in my research about evolution and mentality, the relationship between biology and behavior I spent a fair amount of time addressing variations between the races.
	There are variations between the races with regard to average IQ, for example, as tested by IQ tests, standardized tests, which have been voluminously studied.
	These differences in average intelligence remain.
	It appears to have been a function of evolution.
	All human life originated out of Africa and then diverse spread north into different regions where the locales, the geography, the weather was significantly different.
	In the savannas of Africa, you don't have major variations in weather.
	Hunter-gathering worked very successfully in Africa.
	No necessity to anticipate the future, no necessity to store up nuts for the winter, but in other regions that wasn't the case.
	The phenomenon known as genetic drift is talking about, you know, populations that are in semi-isolated situations and dealing with diverse environmental variables, which leads to the evolution in specific ways that vary, some very subtle, others not.
	From those of other groups from the same original genetic population that have produced genetic diversity, such that studies of genetics by anthropologists have differentiated perhaps as many as, and it depends how specific you're going to go, maybe 23 different
	Racially distinguishable, including various tribes in the South Pacific on islands which are conveniently isolated, so you have genetic drift taking place there.
	Darwin, of course, did his famous work on the Galapagos Islands about turtles and birds and so forth, which we're developing there because they have an evolutionary history of their own.
	And in the differences.
	For example, that I was reporting in my book, The Evolution of Intelligence, are humans the only animals with minds?
	Which, when you properly understand the nature of mentalities, emphatically no, shows that there are these differences.
	And that, you know, if you assume whites have an average IQ of 100, then Asians have an average IQ higher than 100, maybe 108.
	Blacks have a lower average around 80.
	There are all kinds of cultural reasons, for example, including that slave masters weren't happy with strong, intelligent slaves and tend to kill them off so they weren't reproducing into the next gene pool.
	And of course, it was importation from Africa.
	And by the way, it turns out that the slave owners who are most involved in this happen to be Jewish.
	The Jews, by the way, tend to have a higher average IQ even than the Asians, so you got a kind of a hierarchy ranking.
	Now, this doesn't mean that there aren't other physical attributes.
	For example, if you look at the NFL or the NBA, you can see the Overwhelming predominance of black athletes.
	I think that leads to a very appropriate inference that blacks are athletically superior to white.
	I mean, just look at the proportions.
	And I think that, you know, that's a game where ostensibly it's motivated by a desire to win and they want the best players and blah, blah, blah.
	And while I believe the NFL, to a lesser extent, the NBA, but it may be the NBA as well.
	I mean, the bookmakers, all this.
	I got a guy who, you know, regularly informs me about Betty Knotson, who's going to win big games, and I've never known him to be wrong.
	But there are other respects in which blacks and whites are going to be similar.
	Basic physiology.
	I was therefore kind of stunned.
	Today to see an article in the Wisconsin State Journal, bias leads to misdiagnoses.
	New York.
	Racial bias built into a common medical test for lung function is likely leading to fewer black patients getting care for breathing problems, a new study suggests.
	As many as 40% more black patients in the study might have been diagnosed with breathing problems if current diagnosis-assisting computer software were changed, the study said.
	Doctors have long discussed a potential problem caused by race-based assumptions built into diagnostic software, which is news to me.
	If you're designing diagnostic software, why would you build in racial bias?
	There's no reason to believe there's racial differences in these particular respects now, but where it turns out there were, then obviously it ought to be taken into account.
	The study published Thursday in JAMA Network, that's a journal of the AMA, which I have known to be used for political purposes before I got into research on JFK, because the editor-in-chief was abusing the journal to promote a false account of the assassination, and it led me to infer that perhaps some of us with special background and abilities, such as my own in epistemology and methodology and the philosophy of science, ought to become involved.
	Offers one of the first real-world examples of how the issue may affect diagnosis and care for lung patients, said Dr. Dashali Ibas, a pulmonary care doctor at Mass General Hospital.
	So I wonder, what in the world are they talking about?
	The results are exciting to see, probably, but it's also what we'd expect.
	From setting aside race-based calculations, and mind you, I don't believe there are race-based calculations in medicine.
	Why the hell would there be?
	Said Vias, who was an author of an influential 2020 New York Journal of Medicine article that cataloged examples of how race-based assumptions are used in making doctor's decisions about patient care.
	Now, if you have a background of empirical knowledge when dealing with patients who are, say, Asian, Black, Native American, and so forth, You may well find there are race-based differences in there that require different forms of medical treatment.
	But get this.
	For centuries, some doctors and others have held belief that there are natural racial differences in health, including one that black people's lungs were innately worse than those of white people.
	I just got to tell you, this is so effing absurd, I cannot believe it.
	Why would anyone think black people's lungs were innately worse than those of white people?
	I mean, this is just ridiculous!
	That assumption ended up in modern guidelines and algorithms for assessing risk and deciding on further care.
	As a result, we're just in account for, or correct for, a patient race or ethnicity.
	Well, if there's a racial factor of which I'm unaware, then of course that would be appropriate to factor in, but this appears to me utter propaganda.
	I submit to you this is on the line of trying to justify reparations for blacks on the ground that they have been abused by the medical system.
	Now, mind you, We're even getting reports that mathematics is racist, right?
	Can you believe that two plus two equals four?
	That's racist?
	Why?
	Because blacks do less well than whites or Asians who are superior in mathematics.
	They just don't do as well.
	And this is being attributed to racial bias in mathematics, not in the groups that are not doing as well.
	They don't do as well on standardized tests.
	This has led to the absurdity of abolishing standardized tests for college admission.
	That means you're tossing away an objective measure of background ability and achievement.
	I mean, it's going to turn our colleges and universities into remedial education facilities.
	It's going to be immensely damaging.
	This is very much along the line of those who argue that Because there are disproportionately more blacks incarcerated, there must be a bias in the judicial or law enforcement system ignoring the fact that blacks commit disproportionately more of the crimes.
	If you look at the proportion of those who are committing the crimes, then the incarceration is roughly approximately right, because blacks are committing overwhelmingly more crimes.
	So what I'm saying here is, You can take the most objective area of inquiry, which, you know, pure mathematics, for example, and claim there's a racial bias when there's no possibility of any racial bias there.
	If you wanted to talk about in the instruction of mathematics or in the ability to deal with mathematics or in mathematical computational ability, of course, there are going to be differences.
	Well, there are differences from person to person among the same, say, white community.
	Of course!
	Of course!
	But saying that, you know, mathematics is inherently racist, isn't that frankly absurd?
	That's an intellectual atrocity and can't possibly be true.
	Any more than saying definition, defining, you know, saying if John is a bachelor, then John is unmarried.
	That can't possibly be false, given the meaning of the words involved.
	But if blacks, say, aren't very good at reasoning in some context, I mean, could you even claim that definitions are inherently biased and racist?
	In some cases, of course, you can have what are known as persuasive definitions.
	Calling the Dallas Cowboys America's team, for example, is presuming what may very well not be true.
	Everyone is enthusiastic about the Dallas Cowboys.
	At one time, that may have been true of their cheerleaders, at least among men.
	But the fact of the matter is, you've got to distinguish between logic, evidence, types of knowledge, and ability to utilize that knowledge.
	This thing about lungs just looks to me completely absurd.
	That's kind of background, because there's a preoccupation with race and gender that has gone completely wacky and haywire.
	We got a Washington Post article accusing bigoted right-wing extremists of inciting anti-democracy target boycott.
	Number one, how can a boycott of consumers if not shopping somewhere be anti-democratic?
	That's democracy!
	So how can it be anti-democratic?
	And why are those who are boycotting target right-wing or extremists much less bigoted?
	What makes that?
	That's because there's Democrat presupposition built in that everyone should be equally enthusiastic about pride events and the LGBT plus.
	I mean, they got stringing out so many variations.
	The Washington Post is receiving pushback for publishing an article paying conservatives to support the target boycott as extremists and opponents of democracy.
	Again, I'm telling you, this is the kind of propaganda at which we're being besieged every single day.
	Washington Post published an article titled, Target Gets Caught in Cultural Crossfire Over Pride Month Items.
	And month?
	Why is there a pride month?
	You know, the veterans of the United States get one day, Memorial Day, but if you're queer, you get a month?
	Give me a break.
	I mean, this is just so frankly absurd and unjust.
	Frankly, it's not equitable at all.
	They have published equity versus equality.
	Equality means everyone being treated equal.
	They don't want that.
	They want equity.
	Equity means getting what you deserve.
	They think they deserve preferential treatment, which, by the way, is the opposite of equality.
	So don't get Let yourself be played by this equity versus equality nonsense.
	Equity is biased.
	Equity is prejudiced.
	Equity presumes certain groups are entitled to benefits and certain other groups are not entitled to it.
	It's the opposite of equality.
	Equity versus equality.
	It was very clever to introduce this concept into discourse without it being properly defined.
	The article about supposed right-wing extremism stemming from a retail boycott begins with the account of a female customer allegedly upset because Target was carrying Pride Month merchandise.
	The woman reportedly used her own scissor to cut her Target credit card in front of guest services at a Target location in South Florida and informed them, I am never shopping here again.
	That's something an American's entitled to do for crying out loud.
	The manager of the store said there were several tense encounters that workers have reported over LGBTQ plus items.
	Ticked off customers, allegedly accused Target of shoving your woke agenda down our throats, and boys were repeatedly called child groomers.
	Well, that's an opinion one's entitled to have in America until the Democrats finish stamping out the First Amendment as they're trying to do with a second.
	Yeah, I gotta touch on bomb threats.
	I'm very doubtful about this, by the way.
	They're trying to play the victim card, targeting several Target stars in multiple states.
	However, local news said the bomb threats were made by an individual claimed to be angry Target was cowardly for turning their back on the LGBTQ community.
	So the bomb threats are coming from a gay guy.
	Decided to cater to the homophobic right-wing redneck bigots who protested and vandalized their store.
	Homophobic right-wing redneck bigots?
	Look, I may not be wildly enthusiastic about gay lesbian movements, but I don't hold any grudge against them.
	I'm a different-strokes-for-different-strokes kind of guy.
	But I do find it offensive when they're rubbing it in our faces.
	Let everyone have the privacy and discretion for their own personal sexual relationship.
	We don't need to tell the world.
	The article, written by a retail reporter, a business reporter, noted Target decided to pull some items because of the backlash.
	Queer and transgender designers blamed Domestic terrorists for Target taking their controversial products off the shelf.
	Domestic terrorists, right.
	If you don't buy into the Democratic agenda, if you don't buy into gay-lesbian alliance and all that, you're a domestic terrorist, didn't you know?
	The article painted the Target boycott with a broad brush.
	Conservatives are upset the national chain was selling LGBTQ merchandise.
	No, actually, I don't think anyone gives a damn if Target wants to publicly, you know, market LGBTQ merchandise.
	Just don't shove it down our throats!
	However, the article did not mention the boycott really took off after it was revealed that Big Box Jane was selling tuck-friendly bathing suits, LGBTQ onesies for babies and products from a transgender designer.
	Promoting satanism, violence, and drug use.
	Though Pride Month and other inclusivity initiatives have been around for years, they've increasingly become litmus tests for consumers, forcing companies to fully commit on social issues or yield to critics, the article read.
	Target, one of the largest American general merchandise retailers, said it has offered products celebrating Pride Month for more than a decade.
	That may well be.
	Well, they haven't put them out in the front of the store.
	Of course, we haven't had a whole month devoted to honoring gays and lesbians.
	Why the hell do they deserve any more honoring than, say, veterans, for example, or national heroes or sports figures or whatnot?
	This is just absurd.
	The article cited experts on extremism.
	That's your average Democrat politician, of course.
	Right, when influencers were inciting an anti-democracy movement.
	But as I say, there's nothing anti-democracy about consumers using their pocketbook to support or not companies, stores and products they like.
	Lindsay Shibner, who studied violent movements for the anti-extremism, washed up Western State Center, told the Post.
	It's like not like any of this is unpredictable.
	We'd always know exactly where these sort of anti-democracy actors are going to point to next.
	But the increase in threats and harassment from anti-democracy movements in the U.S.
	has become so frequent.
	This is something that absolutely needs to be planned for.
	I think it's great.
	There's a protest.
	My God, they weren't protesting when Antifa and BLM were out in the street rioting, looting and committing arson.
	Hell, they were describing that as mostly peaceful.
	They went right with the program.
	So here you have people who are not enthusiastic about the LGBT program and don't want to buy there, and they're being described as extremist domestic terrorists.
	The LGBTQ Antifa, the Antifa and BLM people were not being described as domestic terrorists when they absolutely are domestic terrorists.
	So this is another way in which language is being used to promote a political agenda.
	True to claim, the bigoted and anti-democracy groups, pegging the question by taking for granted they're anti-democratic when there's no reason to think they are, will attempt various boycott tactics to see what will stick.
	Sarah Kate Ellis, president and chief executive of LGBTQ media advocacy group GLAAD, G-L-A-A-D, said, as soon as you cede ground to extremists, you give them more permission.
	That's exactly what a politician in Washington did by tolerating the BLM and the Antifa riots during the summer of law.
	Ellis claimed Republican lawmakers such as Marjorie Taylor Greene demonized the LGBTQ community.
	Well, I don't think so.
	The Washington Post article stated, according to experts on it, who the hell are these?
	Boycotts and the threats and harassment that have extended from them are part of a diffused, unfocused campaign inflamed by influential, conservative, exploiting TikTok and right-wing media.
	This is just ridiculous.
	This is just making it up.
	This is bullshit.
	The article named conservative commentator Matt Walsh as an anti-LGBTQ rabble-rouser who stirs up boycotts against war companies.
	And, of course, Matt is the one who produced What is a Woman?
	A sizable number of Twitter reactions to Washington Post laughed off the accusations that the Target boycott was based on extremism of any kind.
	Good.
	A person explained today in the narrative, if you shop, stop shopping at places that endorse child sex changes, you're an extremist.
	Exactly right.
	A Twitter user said, parents not wanting their children being exposed to a satanic sex cult while they're shopping at Target is not an example of extremism.
	Real extremism is offering LGBTQ themed onesies for babies.
	Another user stated, you're calling a normal and fairly muted response to a corporate sponsor to people in our social norms extremism.
	Target has lost billions in market value since the boycott began and the retailer's stock is recently down 14%.
	I like that.
	That's totally appropriate.
	Similar for Bud Light.
	Similar for Walmart.
	Now Chick-fil-A is falling into the same pattern.
	Consumers are protesting.
	Why mix politics with retail stores?
	Why mix politics with Food with a fried chicken sandwich!
	Give me a break!
	Give me a break!
	Meanwhile, get this, and I find this fascinating.
	Daily Wire's controversial What is a Woman sparks firestorm.
	In a whirlwind 24-hour period, the Daily Wire, based on expected challenges and triumphs surrounding this documentary, What is a Woman, on Twitter initially, Some individual within the platform attempted to sabotage the film's visibility, putting a restriction being placed on it due to alleged misgendering.
	However, thanks to the intervention of Elon Musk, who has a significant following on Twitter, the film received a tremendous boost and garnered attention from millions of people.
	Co-CEO Jeremy Boring expressed gratitude to those who supported the cause of free speech during this tumultuous period.
	He acknowledged both Elon Musk and Twitter for rectifying the situation, allowing the documentary to continue being available on the platform for the weekend.
	Boring even humorously referenced the Streisand effect, a phenomenon where attempts to suppress information inadvertently leads to its wider dissemination.
	The groundbreaking documentary featuring Matt Walsh explores the radical transgender craze and seeks to foster a meaningful conversation on the topic.
	By posting on Twitter for free viewing, The Daily Wire aimed to mark the one year anniversary of its release and engage in an open dialogue.
	However, the platform initially labeled the documentary as hateful conduct.
	Due to alleged instances of misgendering.
	That's, what, not calling everyone by their preferred pronouns?
	Even Megyn Kelly has come up and said that's just rubbish nonsense.
	She's not going to do it anymore.
	Fortunately, Twitter later removed the tag and restored the film's visibility, enabling users to like, retweet, and engage with it freely.
	I have retweeted it on my Twitter account, at Jim Letzer.
	Elon Musk, a prominent figure on Twitter, of course, became a significant advocate for the documentary, not only acknowledged the mistake by Twitter, but also encouraged his substantial following to watch the film, highlighting its relevance to every parent.
	Musk's endorsement exponentially amplified the reach and impact of the documentary, turning it into a viral sensation.
	A daily tweet Byron's tweet featuring the film garnered an astonishing 65 million views in less than 24 hours thanks to most support.
	This episode serves as a testament to the power of free speech and the unintended consequences it can arise when attempts are made to suppress certain viewpoints.
	Despite initial obstacles, a film made to transcend its limitations sparked important conversation about gender and identity.
	It is a reminder of the critical role that platforms like Twitter play in facilitating diverse perspectives and allowing open dialogue on complex issues.
	By embracing a conservative perspective that champions free speech and the exchange of ideas, we can continue to foster meaningful conversations that drive our society for precisely.
	This is why we had a golden age on the internet when anyone could say anything, let a thousand flowers bloom, you could actually find All research rolling con against a given subject at the touch of your fingers by your laptop.
	No longer true the amount of suppression.
	Meaning the Babylon Bee.
	Damning leak reveals Matt Walsh knew what a woman was this whole time.
	Nashville.
	A damning leak from the hacked emails that conservative commentator Matt Walsh has revealed.
	In spite of the question posed by his documentary, what is a woman?
	He has actually known what a woman was this entire time.
	Stunning, disgusting, rank hypocrisy, said transgender former journalist Brian Stelter.
	We knew Walsh wasn't who he claimed to be, but now we have proof.
	Daily Wire CEO Jeremy Boring also expressed disappointment at the news.
	I dumped millions In a man's documentary to discover the answer to this question.
	And it turned out he knew the answer this whole time.
	I feel betrayed, he said.
	On top of that, I found out he's still subscribed to Harry's Razors.
	I feel like I don't even know him.
	Authorities say they are still searching for the alleged hacker and are warning people not to share the leaked emails as it could radicalize whoever reads them against gender ideology and publishing time.
	Things have gotten worse for Walsh after someone posted the entirety of his Cowboy Bebop fanfic online.
	Wow.
	Love it.
	Now, incredible.
	Another.
	Listen to this.
	That Walsh what is a woman hits 165.4 million views on Twitter.
	Everyone is watching the movie they really don't want you to see.
	LifeSite News.
	After a chaotic day and a half of suppression and free speech victories, the groundbreaking What Is A Woman documentary has reached over 65 million views by Sunday at 7 p.m.
	on Twitter.
	Numbers will continue to rise as The Daily Wire has left the film free to view on the platform over the weekend.
	Matt Walsh, Daily Wire podcaster and star of the film shared on Saturday morning that in addition to the 110 million views, the movie had 120,000 retweets, figures he described as incredible.
	It's a movie they really don't want you to see.
	What is a woman watching an explosive documentary starring Matt Walsh free on Twitter for 24 hours?
	Fascinating.
	Fascinating.
	The milestone came out after Daily Wire's Friday Night Update sharing a film that amassed over 78 million views in just 24 hours.
	With this number, the outlet decided to leave it up for the weekend.
	The prevalent spread of the documentary followed Walsh's cinematic exposé of gender ideology being suppressed by Twitter executives, a decision which great owner Elon Musk was a mistake.
	A temporary censorship occurred after Daily Wire reached an agreement with a platform to stream the film for free in honor of its one-year anniversary.
	Twitter reportedly backed out of the deal due to certain scenes which featured characters misgendering others.
	I mean, he's illustrating what the hell is going on in the community!
	This is just absurd!
	Musk later resolved the issue and promoted the film on his own Twitter page.
	Criticizing child mutilation and saying that every parent should watch the documentary that post is now a pinned tweet on his account.
	Let me just say I couldn't agree more about how important this film is and that I want to share with you what's going on here.
	Well, we'll play a good part of it here.
	You'll be able to see it on the video version.
	Shona, birthday cake.
	Happy birthday, twins.
	They're blowing out the candles on their cake.
	Son has a football.
	Daughter has a tiara.
	Being a dad is one of the great privileges of my life.
	Give my son a BB gun, and that's just about all the emotional support he needs.
	My daughter, on the other hand... I've heard people say that there are no differences between male and female.
	But those people are idiots.
	I'm a husband.
	I'm a father of four.
	I host a talk show.
	I give speeches.
	I write books.
	I like to make sense of things.
	But making sense of females is a whole other matter.
	Even astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who could come up with a theory on black holes, was completely dumbfounded by women.
	Women.
	They are a complete mystery.
	And now our culture is telling us that the differences between girls and boys don't matter.
	That if you identify as something, then you are that thing.
	How do we help our kids make sense of this when they're bombarded with conflicting messages about gender and identity?
	Forget trying to figure out women.
	The real question is, What is a woman?
	As you grow, your body changes from that of a young girl to that of a woman.
	Soon, Molly will be a young woman, having dates, going to dances, and lovely romantic dresses.
	The boy's shoulders are broad and his body muscular, while the girl's body is more curved.
	I'd like to know more about different kinds of hormones.
	Presence of these hormones in the blood brings about many changes in the bodies of both boys and girls.
	Being a woman is one of the things I like best about myself.
	I think you'll like it too.
	I like to come out here to think.
	I like to come out here to think.
	Nature seems to always tell the truth, even when we don't want to hear it.
	Thank you.
	Truth is, I'm not very good at fishing.
	But what is truth?
	Is there a truth?
	Is this what progress looks like?
	Can my boys really become girls?
	Do I have four daughters?
	Do I now have to pay for four weddings?
	Is there a son trapped in my daughter's body?
	If so, how do I get him out?
	Are any of my kids who they claim to be?
	Who are these people?
	Who am I?
	I better see a therapist.
	In the state of Tennessee, I'm a licensed marital and family therapist, which basically means I've been trained up to think about systems, family systems, how we were raised up, how that shapes who we are today.
	So on your website, if you'll bear with me, you say, I use a combination of approaches in my therapeutic work, including anti-oppression, feminist, and narrative frameworks.
	I rely deeply on systems theory and understanding that individuals are products of and in dialogue with our surroundings, including our families, broader culture, workplaces, nature, and political climates.
	What does that mean?
	Yeah, so thinking about the modalities that I use, I'm definitely informed by like feminist family therapy.
	And the idea is that we live in gendered worlds where there are certain imperatives that are placed on us about who we are and what we do based on how we've been gendered.
	From the minute I was assigned female, I was told, okay, these are the kind of clothing that you're going to wear.
	These are the kind of the type of play that you're going to engage in as a child.
	Um, the path that maybe your life will take because of social expectations.
	What do you mean by assigned female?
	Who, who assigns female?
	Yeah, so, um, most times people when they're born, um, they're assigned a gender by the, the doctors.
	Yeah.
	What do they, what do they base that assignment on?
	So basically, it's based on genitalia.
	So people are looking at genitalia and deciding, okay, this is a girl or a boy.
	And we know now that sex and gender are so much more than just this binary.
	Some women have penises, right?
	Some men have vaginas.
	That's not how gender works.
	How do we know that that's not true?
	Where do we learn that from?
	Yeah, well, I learned that from hearing from transgender people who've said, like, oh, I'm a trans woman, and just because I happen to have a penis, right, that doesn't mean that this is, like, who I am as a person, or that genitalia doesn't equal gender, who they are, their gender, their gender expression, that, yeah, a trans woman is a woman.
	With the fluidity of these things, How do I know if I'm a woman?
	That's a great question.
	I like scented candles.
	Yeah.
	I've watched Sex and the City.
	Yeah.
	So how do I know?
	Yeah, Matt, that question right there, like that question is like one that's asked with a lot of curiosity, right?
	That's the beginning of a lot of people's like gender identity development journeys.
	If my mom of gay birth to me is a woman, And my wife is a woman, though I haven't asked her.
	Maybe I should.
	But if they're all women, and also the boy who sits down with you and says, I think I'm a girl actually is one, then what is a woman?
	Great question.
	I'm not a woman, so I can't really answer that.
	I thought therapy would make me less confused.
	Am I the only one feeling this way?
	I need to hit the road and find out.
	We're talking about gender in society.
	Let me start with a real basic question.
	What is a woman?
	I don't know.
	A woman?
	I don't want to assume, but you guys are all women?
	We're all women.
	So how would you define it, like in the simplest terms?
	That is hard.
	Yeah, it is.
	It is a stumper.
	A woman is someone that wants to be pretty and think of themselves as a delicate creature.
	I'm pretty and delicate.
	Oh, good.
	I could be a woman too.
	Yes, you could.
	Defining womanhood.
	It's a simple question.
	So why is it so hard to answer?
	Yeah, but what do they identify as?
	They identify as a woman, but what is that?
	I honestly don't know.
	It's a simple question.
	So why is it so hard to answer?
	This is going to take some serious investigation.
	For all of human existence, women were understood to be a certain thing.
	So what changed?
	No one can seem to answer the question now.
	Over 2,000 surgeries and counting, Dr. Marci Bowers is the nation's preeminent sex change surgeon.
	Surely someone who does sex change surgeries can answer what a woman is.
	Dr. Marcy Bowers, first of all, thanks for talking to us.
	My pleasure.
	So, you're a world-renowned gynecologist and surgeon.
	You're also a transgender woman.
	Can you tell me a little bit about... No, I mean, I identify as a woman, but... You're a woman, right.
	I'm a woman with... I mean, that's my life, day-to-day, but I have a transgender history.
	So one thing on your website, it says gender-affirming vaginoplasty.
	What is that exactly?
	A vaginoplasty is creation of a female vagina and vulva.
	We're altering the physical characteristics of the individual to fit better with a gender identity that is female.
	This is all constructed from the penis?
	Yes, that's right.
	The surgeries are quite refined in the sense that they really, not only do they look like female anatomy, but they also function that way for the most part.
	I mean, certainly it's a bit of a Faustian bargain.
	You know, it's not perfect.
	Does anyone ever regret their surgeries?
	We know they do, but how often do people regret their surgeries?
	Well, actually we don't know that they do.
	There are legitimate detransitioners and there are people who truly feel that in their journey, They may have made a mistake.
	Now, fortunately, this is a really, really uncommon phenomenon.
	I don't know if you've ever heard of people in the trans-abled community.
	These are people who are physically able-bodied but feel like they should be disabled or identified as such.
	For example, a man who has two arms but feels like he should have one.
	If a man in this kind of marginalized community went to the doctor and said, I want to have my arm cut off, Do you think that that doesn't have anything to do with gender identity?
	Well it's uh someone's someone's self-identity.
	That's someone who has a um I'll accept it as a mental diagnosis, a psychiatric condition.
	I don't even pretend to know what aptamentophilia is all about, but somehow it's the idea that you're fascinated or charmed by having a limb or part of a limb missing.
	I would say that's, pardon my non-medical language, kooky.
	You don't see any?
	You think this is totally irrelevant?
	So the biggest broadest question is what is a woman?
	A woman is a you know it's a combination of your physical attributes and then what you're showing to the world and the gender clues that you give and hopefully those match your gender identity.
	The critics on the other side of this of uh of this of this issue?
	There aren't many.
	But go ahead.
	There aren't many who would disagree with what you're saying about... Well, you know, the dinosaurs of the world are certainly out there.
	How long have you been running the shop here?
	25 years.
	How long have you been running the shop here?
	25 years.
	Wow.
	Now you had an incident here a little while ago that went really viral online.
	Lots of reaction in the public.
	Aberdeen Councilwoman Tiesa Meskis confronted owner Don Zucker about a sign he posted in his store.
	One day I just put the sign up over here and he came around the corner and I thought, okay, I recognize him.
	I says, oh, I recognize you.
	You're our new city councilman.
	He says, no, I'm your new city councilwoman.
	So it was, it was kind of on from there.
	You know what?
	It's bullshit.
	No, what you're spouting is bullshit.
	No, it's not.
	These women are women, sir.
	That sign is bullshit.
	I've been doing this 25 years.
	I've never had a problem with anybody, whether they're gay, trans, sex, anything.
	Now, you're saying Councilman E, this individual, was saying, I'm a woman.
	Right.
	And you said you're not a woman.
	How do you know that that person's not a woman?
	How do I know?
	Well, uh, Common sense.
	Doesn't the science say that if someone identifies as a woman, then they are?
	No, no.
	Now that's completely bogus.
	I don't care if you think you're a sheepdog.
	And you come into my store, it don't matter to me.
	Just don't come in and try to shove that shit down my throat.
	If it makes someone feel better, what about their feelings?
	I don't give a shit about their feelings.
	I'm old.
	We're on a Star Wars universe.
	Jar Jar Binks?
	Ansexual, do you think?
	Transgender?
	Um... Why would I even care?
	If it's his truth?
	Well, it ain't true.
	You're not a scientist, you're not a gender studies major, or are you?
	No.
	How do you know that you're a man?
	How do I know that I'm a man?
	I guess because I got a dick.
	Well, I guess Don isn't overthinking it.
	He admits he's not a gender studies major, or at the very least a doctor.
	Maybe I should go talk to one.
	My name is Michelle Forcier and I have a medical degree from the University of Connecticut residency, University of Utah Pediatrics, and I've worked for a number of different Planned Parenthoods for 20 years.
	I do advanced contraception and abortion, as well as gender hormones, and sort of looking at the whole sort of schema of gender, sex, and reproductive justice.
	So you've done a lot of work in this field.
	Can you just start by telling us?
	Sure.
	At what age can a child first begin to transition into another gender or identify themselves as A gender different from how they were born?
	Yeah, well I mean there's there's research and data that show that babies and infants understand differences in gender.
	Some children figure out their gender really early and the reason why we are say oh that's it's interesting or important is because they're figuring out their gender identity is not necessarily congruent with their sex assigned at birth.
	When the doctor sees the penis and says this is a male As a sex of male, that's an arbitrary distinction.
	Telling that family, based on that little penis, that your child is absolutely 100% male-identified, no matter what else occurs in their life, that's not correct.
	So what is gender affirmation care?
	You're a big proponent of.
	We walk through, a child is sitting down with you, is questioning their gender.
	What's the gender affirmation process?
	Affirmation means that as a pediatrician, as someone who says my job is to provide the best medical care for you, is I need to listen really carefully.
	And how I put it in words for kids so that they can understand it is, tell me your story.
	Where have you been in terms of your gender and your gender identity?
	Where are you right now?
	And more excitingly, where would you like to be in the future?
	Have you ever met a four-year-old Who believes in Santa Claus?
	Mm-hmm.
	So this is someone who believes that a fat man is traveling through the sky on a flying reindeer at lightning speed, coming down his chimney with presents.
	Yeah.
	Would you say that this is someone who maybe has a tenuous grasp on reality?
	They have an appropriate four-year-old handle on the reality that's very real for them.
	Agreed, agreed.
	But Santa Claus is real for them, but Santa Claus is not actually real.
	Yeah, but Santa Claus does deliver their Christmas presents.
	Well, yeah, but he's not real, though.
	That child, they are.
	When I see a child who, you know, lives in Santa Claus, and then let's say this is a boy and he says, I'm a girl.
	This is someone who can't distinguish between fantasy and reality, so how could you take that as a reality?
	I would say that as a pediatrician and as a parent, I would say how wonderful my four-year-old in their imagination is.
	Aren't kids famous for their active imaginations?
	Should we really let our children define reality?
	If I said that I feel a certain way, then obviously you can't tell me I don't feel that way.
	But just because I feel that way doesn't mean that it's true.
	I mean if it's your reality.
	Yeah, if it's your reality.
	It's truly like none of my business.
	So we all have our own What if I said I want you to say that it's true that I'm a woman?
	Would you say that?
	I would also say that.
	If you want.
	I honestly don't care.
	Whatever makes you happy.
	What's true to you can be false to me.
	What if I said that my truth is that you don't exist?
	Does that mean you no longer exist?
	I mean, if that's your truth, sure.
	I don't.
	But you do.
	I mean, if you're saying that I do, then I do.
	Well, but even if I said that you don't, you still do because we're having this conversation.
	I mean, are we?
	I think so.
	I mean, I thought... That's what you think.
	Well, I should have known it would be hard to define reality in Hollywood.
	I should probably look to the place where truth is the foremost pursuit.
	- The American University. - What we do in gender studies is not just reduce gender to what psychologists might call individual differences, but rather thinking about gender, Now, it's not women and men, but gender as a social form.

	Well.
	You're picking up the slack, my friend.
	Here we go with Dr. Patrick Gronska, Professor of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, University of Tennessee.
	We're thinking about gender.
	Now, it's not women and men, but gender as a social form, something that kind of infuses itself into virtually all aspects of social life.
	Let's talk about that then.
	I guess we should start with we've got gender and sex by hand.
	What's the difference between the two?
	Is there a difference?
	I saw that in your questions and I thought, my goodness, this is what we spend an entire semester kind of thinking through.
	But what we tend to think about in the social sciences today is that sex refers to a set of biological characteristics and gender is a social construct or category.
	What I think is often misleading about that characterization is it's allowed to be sort of messy and complicated, but in that framing, when you split them up into these wholly discrete constructs, studies, scholars, and really more specifically people who study gender and sex, we're not talking about sexuality right now.
	To mention the kind of academic universe that I travel in is that we see how deeply gendered ideas, cultural ideas, about masculinity or femininity, maleness and femaleness, both in humans and in lots of other animals.
	So are gender and sex two different things?
	Well, I think that they both are and they aren't.
	I'm comfortable saying that gender and sex are two different constructs, but they're deeply intertwined with each other.
	We're talking about gender and sex and there's a lot of controversies there.
	If we're talking about a trans woman has all of the male physical characteristics, so would that not be a male then?
	Could we plainly say This person is a male.
	Well, I guess it's like, why are you asking the question?
	I think I want to understand sort of why that's so important.
	So if someone tells you... So you sort of understand reality?
	Well, I mean, I think when someone tells you who they are, you should believe them.
	So if a person says that they're a woman or they're a man, Then that's them telling you their gender is.
	I'm not so sure what social interactions would have to do with maleness or femaleness.
	I'm not even talking about social context.
	I'm just trying to start by getting to the truth.
	Yeah, I mean, I'm really uncomfortable with that language of like getting to the truth again in social life.
	Why is that uncomfortable?
	Because that it sounds actually deeply transphobic to me.
	And if you keep probing, we're going to stop the interview.
	If I probe about what the truth is?
	You keep invoking the word truth, which is condescending and rude.
	I'm saying to you, how is the word truth condescending and rude?
	Why don't you tell me what your truth is, and you're walking on 30 seconds more of thin ice before I get up.
	What my truth is?
	Well, I don't think I really have a truth.
	I think that there's just the truth, like the reality.
	And so we should begin by trying to figure out what the reality is.
	Uh-huh.
	And why are you concerned with When someone else tells you that they're a man, or even if they use the word male, why are you concerned with not believing them?
	Well, you keep bringing it back to, you know, how do you respond in a social situation.
	That's what I do, I'm a social scientist.
	Well, right, but we're in a university, this is a place of understanding truth, isn't it?
	Absolutely, we pursue truth, and I'm a social scientist, and that's what I do.
	But you just said the truth is transphobic.
	That you would say, if you're saying the truth is that I get to say, you're not a man, show me your genitalia, that's transphobic.
	No, I don't want to see anybody's genitalia, I just mean Someone can make a statement about themselves that could be untrue.
	Like, for example, if I were to say that I'm a black man, would you accept that, or would you be skeptical?
	Are you?
	Black?
	Are you African American?
	Are you biracial?
	I don't think so.
	You don't look that, and I don't think that's a... It doesn't sound like that's a genuine statement of who you are.
	Okay, so that's my point.
	I could make a statement about who I am that's incorrect.
	Of course, I think it's well established that human beings can lie, yes.
	Or not even lie.
	I mean, I could just be mistaken.
	Yeah.
	I guess this all comes down to really one question, especially women, gender, and sexuality studies.
	What is a woman?
	Why do you ask the question?
	I'd just really like to know.
	What do you think the answer to that question is?
	Well, I'm asking.
	That's why I came to a college professor.
	This is what you do.
	What other kinds of answers have you gotten?
	A lot of like this, where you're not answering it.
	I've gotten a lot of that.
	I think it's interesting that you say that some of the people you've interviewed have been reluctant to answer it, and I think that has a lot to do with the questions that preceded it and the way that you've conducted yourself in the interview.
	How have I conducted myself?
	How do you think you've conducted yourself?
	You just really don't want to answer the questions, do you?
	I came today very willing and enthusiastic about answering questions about women's and gender sexuality studies, which is what I do.
	So you wanted to answer questions about women's studies, and so the first answer you should be able to provide is what exactly is a woman?
	Well, for me, it's actually a really simple answer, and that's a person who identifies as a woman.
	But what are they identifying as?
	As a woman.
	So what is that?
	As a woman.
	Do you know what a circular definition is?
	I do.
	It's sort of like what you're doing right now.
	A woman is a woman.
	Because you're seeking what we would call in my field of work an essentialist definition of gender.
	I think it sounds like you would like me to give you a set of biological or cultural characteristics that are associated with one gender or the other.
	I'm not seeking any type of definition.
	I'm just seeking a definition.
	Yeah, and I gave you one.
	Well, now I can say I've been to college.
	Glad I didn't pay for it.
	Is there anyone willing to give me a straight answer?
	Ideally somebody with a bunch of medical degrees on the wall.
	Dr. Grossman, thanks for talking to us.
	You're a psychiatrist, medical doctor, and you've done a lot of work in child psychiatry.
	What is transgenderism from a psychiatric standpoint?
	The best way to approach it is by speaking about gender dysphoria.
	Which is an intense loathing and discomfort with one's biological sex.
	They exist anywhere between one in 30,000 people and one in 110,000.
	It's important to distinguish those people from what's happening much more recently, which is kids that never had any Discomfort or dysphoria, as it's now called, with their biological sex.
	And then quite suddenly, as preteens or as adolescents, they come out and they announce that they are gender fluid or they start to question their sex.
	So first, let's define the terms sex and gender.
	Yes, please.
	Sex is biology.
	Sex is unchanging.
	It's based on chromosomes.
	99.999% of the cells in the body are marked either male or female.
	Gender, on the other hand, is a perception.
	It's a feeling.
	It's a way of identifying.
	It's an experience.
	Okay, that's subjective.
	It sounds like what you're saying is that if a man He's male, but thinks of himself as a woman.
	He's not actually a woman?
	That's correct.
	Male gametes.
	That's what makes me male.
	No.
	Your sperm don't make you male.
	Then what does?
	It's a constellation.
	In reality.
	In truth.
	Okay?
	Whose truth are we talking about?
	The same truth that says we're sitting in this room right now, you and I. No.
	You're not listening.
	If I see a chicken laying eggs and I say that's a female chicken laying eggs, did I assign female or am I just observing a physical reality that's happening in the world?
	Does a chicken have gender identity?
	Does a chicken cry?
	Does a chicken commit suicide?
	Let's explain this because you're talking, you're trying to... A chicken has sex like any biological organism.
	A chicken has an assigned gender, but a chicken doesn't have a gender identity.
	So we assign female to chickens when they lay eggs?
	We assume they're female if they lay eggs.
	Now I was told that Really everyone agrees with the current approach to gender and transitioning kids and all that.
	And if you don't agree, you're a dinosaur and a bigot.
	So are you a bigoted dinosaur?
	I'm not bigoted and I'm not a dinosaur.
	I am rooted in reality and in science.
	Whose reality?
	There's one reality.
	The first race that I competed against a transgender athlete was during my freshman year.
	And once the gun went off, the two transgender athletes took off flying and left all of us girls in the dust.
	For all four years of high school, I was forced to compete against biological males.
	I only competed against them in sprinting events, but I raced against these athletes over a dozen times throughout the years and every single time I lost.
	Did they inch you out of Medals that you would have won otherwise, or trophies you would have won?
	They beat me out by 20 meters out of medals.
	And qualifying spots, I missed out on qualifying for New England's.
	I had to go in the long jump and the 4x200 meter relay, so I was forced on the sidelines in my own event.
	And if they were not there, I would have been able to qualify.
	So I missed out on so much throughout my high school career.
	Did they win all the events, or almost all the events?
	Between the two of them, they won every single event they competed in.
	How does that feel?
	It is so frustrating and heartbreaking because we elite female athletes train so hard to shave just fractions of a second off of our time and going into races knowing that we will never be able to win.
	Feels like all that work gone to waste?
	It does.
	After so many losses, it just gets to the point of why am I even doing this?
	Why am I keep training so hard and sacrificing so much just to place third and beyond?
	In the case in Connecticut, there were two male track runners.
	They were trans girls.
	Right.
	And who, who decided that, um, they were going to race against the girls.
	And you look at the, those individuals, you look at their times against the men, against the boys.
	So they were kind of middle of the pack and then the race and the girls are there, you know, first and second place.
	Is that indicative of some kind of unfair advantage that those individuals might have against the girls?
	No, it's not indicative of an unfair advantage.
	And I think part of the proof of this is that more transgender girls are coming out in high school and still playing sports.
	And they're not winning.
	You know, the Connecticut case is the exception.
	It got a lot of attention because those two trans girls performed well.
	But there are many, many more trans girls competing in sports, and they don't excel.
	At the end of the day, whether or not you win a game is about how hard you work in your practice, and most of us aren't going to win.
	And that goes for transgender athletes too.
	Let's go girls.
	The norm is that transgender youth don't win that much in sports games.
	It is very much the exception when a transgender young person does win.
	And it's because there's not really an advantage to being trans.
	now but she got a couple punches in.
	It is very much the exception when a transgender young person does win.
	And the tap!
	And it's because there's not really an advantage to being trans.
	Only a few people are going to lead the path.
	There are some slight differences, but does it translate to a competitive advantage?
	I think we'd be very hard-pressed to prove that.
	If there was a big advantage to being transgender in sports, then we would see transgender women totally dominate.
	You know, to the last half of the pool, nobody will touch Leah Thomas.
	Transgender swimmer Leah Thomas breaking barriers and records, but in a new article Sports Illustrated calls the college senior the most controversial athlete in America.
	Mia obviously helps us do better, right?
	Mia's swimming really fast.
	Mia's performance helps the University of Pennsylvania swim team.
	The feeling of winning doesn't feel as good anymore because it feels tainted.
	There was a lot of things we couldn't talk about that were very concerning, like a locker room situation.
	We even brought up concerns about it.
	There's never any conversation.
	If you even bring up the fact that we assume it might not be fair, you are immediately shut down as being called a hateful person or transphobic.
	There's never any conversation.
	The coaches don't sit everyone down and acknowledge what everyone's really upset about.
	So Pound actually brought in people high up in the athletic department to talk to us.
	They brought in someone from the LGBTQ Center.
	They brought in someone from the psychological services.
	So you're upset about what's happening and so you need psychological help.
	So you're anonymous for this interview.
	And they said, look, we understand there's an array of emotions, but Leah Swinning is a non-negotiable.
	However, we can help you make that okay.
	That's what we're here for.
	So you're anonymous for this interview.
	Why did you decide that you can't have your face out there saying this?
	They've made it pretty clear that if you speak up about it and you say anything negative, that your life will be over in some way.
	Like, you'll be lost all over the internet as a transphobe if you come out and then you'll never be able to get a job.
	Like, anyone who wants to hire you will look you up and see you're transphobic and your life will be over.
	Let's say that I identified as a woman tomorrow and I wanted to go into the same locker room where you are.
	Would you not be allowed to do that?
	As long as I identify that way.
	I don't know.
	I just feel that other women wouldn't be uncomfortable while you walk in there.
	She says, what do you think about men who are transsexuals?
	Do you think it's okay?
	No.
	But say it.
	- - Controversy at a health club in Koreatown over the issue of gender.
	That's right.
	Video of spa goers complaining was posted on social media.
	I just want to be clear with you.
	It's okay.
	It's okay for a man to go into the women's section, show his penis around the other women, young little girls, underage.
	Your spa, we spa, condone that.
	Is that what you're saying?
	Like I asked.
	It's so he can stay there.
	He can stay there?
	What central orientation?
	I see a dick!
	Hello, I'm Congressman Mark Takano.
	a dick.
	Police identified the person involved as 52-year-old Darren Moragor of Riverside County.
	Moragor, who has been a registered sex offender since 2006, now faces five felony counts of indecent exposure.
	Hello, I'm Congressman Mark DeCano.
	Trans Month of Visibility is a time to recognize the strength, diversity, and resiliency of the transgender community.
	Together, we can make our country and our world a more accepting place by speaking out against transphobia at the source and supporting the trans community by getting the Equality Act signed into law.
	Congressman, thank you for being here.
	Thanks for joining us.
	You are the first member of Congress who's a member of the LGBT community and also a person of Asian descent.
	You're also a big proponent of the Equality Act.
	Yes.
	What is the Equality Act?
	If you were to just summarize it very briefly, I know it does a lot.
	The most simplest way to talk about the Equality Act is that it simply amends the 1964 Civil Rights Act to include sexual orientation and gender identity.
	So, public accommodations is one area.
	What's a way that someone who's LGBT could be discriminated in public accommodations currently?
	Currently, you know, public accommodations
	is the whole area of um you know hotels and motels and bathrooms and sports teams is that I say bathrooms and sports teams athletic events let's get into more specific policy issues there there are some women who say and I've I've talked to a few who say this they say hey you know I'd like some privacy in the bathroom uh I'd prefer not to encounter naked penises frankly uh
	They say even that the penis is a telltale sign that someone is a male.
	There are people kind of really bought into the rumor that only men have penises.
	How do we account for that?
	How do you respond to that?
	Well...
	Thank you.
	Well, what I would say is that most transgender people that I know, and it's a very, I think, distinct minority of people, it's a very, it is a very, I think, we're talking about a lot of people,
	I think a person who wants to use a woman's bathroom, who identifies as transgender, really does think of themselves as a female.
	So how we go about trying to, you know, respect their basic right to live, I think will be, of course, an important part of this law.
	Bathrooms are Bathrooms are, you know, where you want to take this conversation instead of the basic right to dislife is something that I'm kind of mystified that you're kind of not focusing on first.
	So we're going straight to controversy over bathrooms.
	So, you know what?
	I think this interview is over.
	I think the interview is over.
	I just have one last question.
	Well, the interview is over.
	We want to know what is a woman.
	Please turn off the cameras.
	I just wanted to know.
	I came all this way to know what is a woman.
	My trip to California isn't providing many answers, but at least I'm making new friends.
	You worried about kids walking around out here?
	No, because I raised two daughters.
	They're two of the most well-adjusted adults.
	They grew up around naked people, and there's been studies that have shown that children raised around non-sexual nudity actually have fewer hang-ups when they're adults.
	People do have hang-ups.
	There's a lot of things hanging right now during this conversation.
	Uh, can anyone be any gender they want to be?
	Can a man become a woman if he wants to?
	I leave the, I mean, what people do, if that's personal choice, people can live the life they want to.
	I'm trying to live the life I want to, an authentic life, and that's why I respect other people's rights to choose what they want to do.
	Well, why are you asking a gay man as to what it means to be a woman?
	You should be asking women what it means to be a woman, especially trans women, who, what it means to be a woman.
	I'm asking all kinds of people.
	Can anyone have an opinion about it?
	Only people who are women.
	Gay men don't know nothing about what it means to be a woman.
	Have you told gay men here in San Francisco that they're not allowed to talk about this?
	No.
	It's not like I come around and say what a gay man is allowed to be.
	So you're saying if you're not a woman then you shouldn't have an opinion?
	Where does a guy get a right to say what a woman is?
	Women only know what women are.
	Are you a cat?
	No.
	Can you tell me what a cat is?
	This is actually a genuine mistake.
	I am sorry I even came up here.
	You want to tell us what a woman is?
	If my friend in the purple hat is correct, and only women can tell me what a woman is, I guess I need to go where the women are.
	What is a woman?
	Can you tell me that?
	Oh, you're at the Women's March, you must have some idea.
	idea.
	So I see girls, vagina, does that mean that they're the only people who can get pregnant?
	If men can get pregnant too, I think they want the right to choose.
	But men can get pregnant?
	We're saying someone who was born as a woman but identifies as a man.
	Is that a man?
	A real man.
	It's a real man?
	Yeah.
	So men can get pregnant?
	Yes.
	If they have the parts to do so.
	Is it just women that get birthed?
	So men can get birthed too?
	Anyone with a vagina.
	Well that could be a man or a woman.
	I think that's the whole point, right?
	That it's fluid.
	The way that we define these things changes a lot.
	What are you doing here?
	I'm asking these questions.
	I'm trying to figure out what a woman is.
	That's why I'm here.
	This is a women's march.
	I figured this is a good place to find out.
	I've come all this way to ask that question.
	Can anyone tell me what a woman is?
	We do not care for women!
	We ask you to leave!
	What is that?
	What is a woman?
	Can anyone here at the Women's Park tell me what a woman is?
	question.
	What is a woman?
	Can anyone here at the women's parks tell me what a woman is?
	Can anyone tell me what a woman is?
	Do you guys know what a woman is by any chance?
	I've been all over America.
	I still can't find an answer.
	Maybe I'm looking too close to home.
	He's flying to Africa.
	Yeah.
	ALELUJAH ALELUJAH ALELUJAH ALELUJAH BAKAMANI VIETEMO.
	We came a long way to come and talk to you guys.
	Thousands of miles from America.
	So thank you for inviting us into your tribe, first of all.
	I can say it is my pleasure to meet you and feel most welcome, but you're here to learn with me.
	I'm here to learn with you too.
	Great.
	What's the right form here?
	With the elbow?
	Yeah.
	I mean, they're laughing, so I guess it's not good, but I thought it was pretty good.
	Not good enough to be a man yet.
	What does a man do?
	What are his roles within the tribe?
	I thought it was pretty good.
	Not good enough to be a man yet.
	What does a man do?
	What are his roles within the tribe? - At the role of a man, you need to work for your woman.
	Secondly, to have children.
	if you have children and you don't have something to feed them you are not still a man at
	the blood was the best rock in the i've had What if a man decides that he wants to do the roles of a woman?
	In Maasai community, it does not exist at all.
	It doesn't exist?
	In the Maasai community, it will not exist at all.
	It doesn't exist?
	What if a man decides that his gender identity is woman?
	A woman has its own duty and a man has its own duty and a lady cannot do the duty of a man and a man cannot do the duty of a woman.
	Can a man become a woman?
	No.
	No?
	No.
	What about a transgender?
	Transgender?
	No. No. No.
	No. No. No.
	No?
	It looks like if you want to become a lady but you're a man, you have something wrong.
	Something wrong.
	Something wrong in your family, something wrong in you.
	What about if someone was non-binary?
	Again?
	Non-binary?
	You know, like non... Like someone is... You're not a woman, you're not a man.
	Yeah, someone's like... someone is neither.
	There's something else.
	Is that...
	He's saying we have never seen things like those.
	For a man, he has a penis.
	For a woman, he has a vagina.
	So we know this is a lady, this is a man.
	What if it's a woman with it?
	What if it's a woman with a penis?
	Boy.
	In the money they're getting good.
	And double.
	Is that a dumb question?
	They're just laughing because they have never heard something like that.
	It's their first time.
	Never heard it before?
	A woman has a penis and she's a woman.
	In my country, I can't go a day without hearing it.
	We hear it every day.
	So in my country, sometimes you'll hear people say, a man will say that I'm a woman trapped in a man's body.
	And so they say that I have a woman trapped inside me.
	They want to know if a woman has a breast.
	They want to know a woman has a priest.
	Secondly, he has a vagina.
	And the question is, does this man deliver?
	Does he deliver babies?
	No, not as far as I know.
	The question is, let's say if you want to sleep a woman, definitely you'll do sex.
	Sex with a woman.
	And you f*** the vagina, is it?
	But for the man, where do you f***?
	You have that question.
	I don't know all the logistics of it.
	Based on what I'm saying, would you ever want to move to America?
	They say no.
	Never.
	What is a woman, if you had to give a definition?
	They say no, never.
	What is a woman, if you had to give a definition?
	She say a woman delivered, a man cannot.
	So it sounds like you don't spend a lot of time thinking about gender.
	You just kind of live your lives, you don't think much about it?
	He said, no, because we believe that's a God's plan.
	God's plan?
	He's saying that I'm shocked on what you're telling me.
	You're shocked?
	Yeah.
	The Maasai people don't think much about gender, but they have a firm sense of their identity.
	It's clear that gender ideology is a uniquely Western phenomenon.
	So where did all this come from?
	Who came up with it?
	And why?
	Matt, I want to show this to you.
	You're a parent, right?
	Okay.
	It's perfectly normal for 10 years and up.
	Here's just one page I want you to see here.
	They're turning up.
	It's unspeakable what these people have done to our children.
	When did that start?
	When was it decided that we need to start teaching kids about this stuff at such a young age?
	So I'll answer that with one word.
	Kinsey.
	Kinsey was a social reformer.
	He wanted to rid society of Judeo-Christian values when it came to sexuality, and he worked very hard to do that, and I would say he succeeded.
	Kinsey would be very happy with our culture today.
	His idea was that children are sexual from birth.
	That we're all inherently sexual creatures from cradle to grave.
	He believed that true happiness is found in a life of perverse sexual experimentation, no matter the age.
	What came out is that his research was fraudulent.
	Kinsey based his fraudulent conclusions on data he collected from convicted sex offenders and child molesters.
	His research was conducted in prisons, not everyday America.
	He also performed horrific sexual experiments on children, some under the age of one.
	His most influential book, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, contains an infamous chart called Table 34, which documents the orgasms of very young kids, including babies as young as five months old.
	But instead of suffering the consequences for his heinous actions, he was and still is celebrated by academia and Hollywood.
	His ideas form the foundation for sexual education in public schools today.
	How do we get from this to... You can choose your own gender.
	Okay, well now we have another very important character.
	And his name was John Money.
	John Money was a psychologist and professor at Johns Hopkins University.
	Gender ideology was his brainchild.
	In fact, he coined the terms gender identity and gender roles.
	And according to Money, babies are gender neutral at birth.
	And ultimately, environment determines whether a person is a man or a woman.
	Money was telling the world about his theory that a boy could be raised as a girl and do just fine and vice versa.
	And so Money tried out his theory on two young twin boys, the Reimer twins.
	When the twins were eight months old and they went to be circumcised, the first twin, whose name was Bruce, something went wrong with the John Money convinced Bruce's parents to transition him into a girl.
	didn't do a second circumcision on the other twin, as you might imagine.
	And the parents, of course, didn't know what to do.
	How are they gonna raise this child? - John Money convinced Bruce's parents to transition him into a girl.
	Money also conducted sexually abusive experiments on the twins throughout their childhood, including forcing them to simulate sex acts on each other. - He reported up to the age of 10 that this was a complete success.
	Well, it wasn't true.
	The results were a disaster.
	Bruce could never fully accept his female identity.
	Eventually his parents told him the truth and he chose to transition back to a boy taking the name David.
	As an adult David spoke out about the abuse and the damage done to him by John Money.
	The girls would do their things with their Barbies and things like that and That wouldn't interest me.
	And things such as trucks and building forts and, you know, getting to the odd fistfight and climbing trees.
	That's the kind of stuff that I like, but it was unacceptable.
	So as a girl, as a girl, I had no place to fit in.
	The trauma that he and his brother and his entire family went through left deep scars.
	His brother died of an overdose.
	Uh, when he was 38, and then David died, committed suicide.
	There was never a retraction or an apology from John Money.
	Instead, his ideas were adopted by mainstream psychology, and they form the basis of gender ideology today.
	Why don't more people know about John Money and Muffet Kinsey?
	Evidently, there are forces that don't want this information out.
	I never fit.
	I was an alpha female sales executive that kind of just didn't fit in any box.
	When psychologists or somebody that I was in love with or whatever said that I was in the wrong body, I started to think, well, maybe I am.
	I'm a biological woman that medically transitioned to appear like a male through synthetic hormones and surgery.
	I will never be a man.
	Is it transphobic for me to tell the truth?
	Why is it that a couple hundred years from now, if you dug up my body, they're gonna go, yeah, that was a woman.
	Had babies.
	Can you tell me about the procedures that you, you had?
	I've had seven surgeries.
	I've had one stress heart attack.
	I've had a helicopter life ride, uh, with a pulmonary embolism.
	I've had, uh, 17 rounds of antibiotics.
	I had six inches of hair on the inside of my urethra for 17 months.
	Nobody would help me, including the doctor that did this to me because I lost my insurance.
	I get infections every three to four months.
	I'm probably not going to live very long.
	Was there any real discussion of the risks and the side effects?
	No.
	No, there's not.
	And I know that people want to think that there is, but there's not.
	The truth is, is that medical transition is experimental.
	We have studies that said that medical transition helps mental health, helps mental health with kids.
	They've all been retracted, modified, changed.
	But the only long-term study tells us 7 to 10 years is when transgender people are the most suicidal.
	After surgery.
	But that's transphobic to say.
	For the first time in history, A marginalized group has a huge dollar sum on the top of their head.
	We have five children's hospitals in the United States promoting that.
	That's a phalloplasty.
	That's a bottom surgery.
	We have five children's hospitals in the United States telling girls that they can be boys.
	At $70,000 a pop in a surgery that has a 67% complication rate.
	That will kill me from infection that I can't sue on for butchering a generation of children because nobody's willing to talk about anything.
	I have three kids at the age that they're doing this to kids.
	I'm not transphobic.
	I love my kids and I love other people's kids and you should too.
	This is wrong.
	On so many levels.
	Can kids consent?
	Do you think kids are capable of consenting?
	No, they're not.
	Being a parent is loving the hell out of your kids and helping them see around corners.
	What's the youngest patient that you've operated on?
	The youngest patient I've done vaginoplasty on?
	Do you worry that minors just don't understand enough about themselves?
	They're not neurologically developed enough yet to make permanent life-altering decisions?
	Absolutely not.
	A young person's self-perception, one day they may be clear, the next day they may be totally confused and not sure, and you're affirming it with hormones that have never been used in this way in the field of medicine.
	You're talking about puberty blockers?
	Blockers and then opposite sex hormones.
	At what age does the medical transition begin with medication?
	So medical affirmation begins when the patient says they're ready for it.
	So that could be a kiddo who is just starting puberty and panicking because they're getting breast buds or their penis is Getting bigger and busier and they're worried about all kinds of masculine changes.
	And that way, puberty blockers, which are completely reversible and don't have permanent effects, are wonderful because we can put that pause on puberty.
	It's like if you were listening to music, you put the pause on and we stop the blockers and puberty would go right back to where it was.
	The next note in the song just delayed that period of time.
	You can just pause puberty.
	No, you can't.
	And then pick it up.
	No, you can't.
	No, you can't.
	How many studies do they have, long-term studies, on hormone blockers for children?
	None.
	I just spoke a month or two ago with a mother whose 14-year-old daughter was put on blockers.
	They discovered after two years This 14-year-old girl has osteoporosis.
	That's something that, like, old women get.
	How can doctors assure parents that a certain medicine is totally safe?
	Based on what you're saying, they can't possibly know that.
	How can they be removing the healthy breasts of 15-year-old girls?
	How can they be sterilizing kids?
	How can this whole thing be happening now?
	Every child that they convince is Transgender and in need of medical transition it generates 1.3 million dollars to pharma and we're believing a pharmaceutical company Lupron hormone blockers reversible so they say well the truth is is that in 2003 Lupron was sued and deemed a criminal enterprise by the US government they paid the most Is Lupron chemical castration?
	company at that time, $874 million.
	Is Lupron chemical castration?
	Yes.
	We're giving it to pedophiles, aren't we?
	We're giving it to people that are dying, and we're giving it to kids, telling them that they were born in the wrong body and it's completely safe.
	One of the drugs used is Lupron, right, which has actually been used to chemically castrate sexism.
	You know what?
	I'm not sure that we should continue with this interview because it seems like it's going in a particular direction.
	Well, you're a medical professional.
	I am a medical professional.
	You don't want to talk about the drugs that you give to kids?
	Again, I'm a physician and I use medication.
	You're choosing exploitive words.
	Drugs.
	I'm choosing a word that was in a dictionary.
	That's not a correct term for puberty blocking.
	I can look it up on my phone, but I'm pretty sure if I looked it up.
	You can look it up on your phone.
	So it's medical definition, the administration of a drug to bring about a marked reduction in the body's production of androgens and especially testosterone.
	And I'm saying as a pediatrician who takes care of hundreds of these kids, When you use that terminology, you are being malignant and harmful.
	I mean, there are some who would say that giving chemical castration drugs to kids is malignant and harmful.
	It's about the context of caring for a child and seeing the suffering that kids can have that have not been in affirmative home situations.
	What do you say to the claim that, well, we have to do this for these kids?
	Because if we don't, they'll kill themselves.
	A lot of them were hurting themselves.
	A lot of them were suicidal before they even discovered gender.
	That is never part of the discussion.
	And they say, what would you rather have?
	A living daughter or a dead son?
	If this is what the professionals are saying, it's terrible emotional black men.
	Hello?
	Hey, is this ***?
	This is, yes.
	Hey, it's Matt Wolf.
	Where are you right now?
	I'm in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada right now.
	Are you able to leave?
	I'm not able to leave BC.
	I can't even go to another province in Canada right now.
	It's because I'm technically out on bail.
	What happened exactly?
	How exactly did this get into the courts to begin with?
	Right, so what happened is we set up a meeting with BC Children's Hospital and according to the BC Children's Hospital website there's going to be a thorough evaluation and I'm thinking good child is not the opposite sex so my ex-wife brings my child into bc children's hospital i get a call less than an hour into that appointment is that they were going to pump her full across sex hormones within the hour and i put a halt to that i said no they agreed to stop for the moment they figured well
	let's get the dad on board too this is all going to be better let's just get everybody on the same page i said it's not going to happen so i get a letter from bc children's hospital in december of 2018 and it says that under the bc infants act they will start injecting my child with prostathex hormones and i have two ways to respond to legal action if i so choose and And so that's how I ended up in court because I didn't respond with legal action.
	So you called your daughter a she and you went to jail for that?
	It's considered criminal violence to not use the preferred pronouns.
	It is no different than let's say I were to take a burn stick and whack one of my kids over 2010 until I would say 2016 I would say 80% of my clients were trans youth.
	Now it is you identify, you take hormones, you do surgery.
	She is.
	The court ordered that she could do whatever she wanted.
	2010 until I would say 2016, I would say 80% of my clients were trans youth.
	Now it is you identify, you take hormones, you do surgery.
	There isn't any other pathways to So if you have two parents, one parent wants to affirm the trans identity, the other parent doesn't, who wins that battle?
	The one who wants to affirm.
	Every time?
	Every single time.
	The goal is to get the parents to affirm the kid.
	There's no such thing as a gender-affirming therapist.
	That's a contradiction in terms.
	Why?
	Because you don't affirm if you're a therapist.
	It's not your business to affirm.
	You come to see me because there's something wrong.
	Maybe you come to see me because a destructive element of you is wreaking havoc in your life.
	I'm on the side of the part of you that wants to aim up, man.
	That's what I'm on the side of.
	Okay, now I don't know what that means in your case.
	We're going to talk about it.
	Am I going to affirm what you think?
	No, it's not up to me to affirm it.
	You don't get a casual pat on the back from the therapist for your pre-existing axiomatic conclusion.
	That's not therapy.
	That's a rubber stamp.
	Is anybody at any point explaining to these kids the real long-term consequences of hormones and tuber blockers?
	I don't think they're explaining it to the kids.
	That has frightened me that it's become Yeah, we're even talking to the kids about it at 10.
	We're presenting it in schools.
	So this generation, they're the lab rats.
	Biological sense.
	Binary.
	Been binary for, like, a hundred million years.
	Longer than that.
	Temperament is not binary.
	Temperament or personality.
	So it's gender.
	Temperament is gender?
	Well... Gender's a not good word.
	Because it's vague and it isn't measurable.
	So do we need it?
	Why can't we just say temper?
	What do we even need the word gender for?
	Well, I don't need it.
	But what I would say is that people who talk about the diversity in gender are actually talking about diversity in personality and temperament, but they don't know it.
	You can have a masculine temperament if you're a woman.
	Maybe one in ten women have the average temperament of a man.
	And you can have feminine men temperamentally.
	And it's not that uncommon, because the differences between men and women temperamentally aren't that great.
	There are masculine girls.
	There are feminine boys.
	What are we going to do about that?
	Carve them up?
	You as someone who started your professional life, you know, transgender care.
	Yeah.
	Now you're sitting here talking to me.
	I'm a dangerous man, I've been told.
	Are you worried about reprisals?
	Are you worried about how this is going to play among your professional peers?
	I am worried that I can't have conversations with any other peers.
	I don't know.
	Any other peer that will speak to me around these things that question it.
	I just don't think developmentally this is helpful to our children.
	You step wrong as a therapist.
	You say the wrong thing once and like your bloody career is over.
	Now it's the same with physicians.
	How's that going to work?
	You're going to go have an honest conversation with your physician?
	He's terrified out of his mind.
	He'll say something politically incorrect during the diagnostic processes.
	Hey man, you're sick with whatever you want to be.
	See you later.
	You want a prescription for something?
	I left academia because the climate had become too stifling politically, especially when it comes to the topic of gender identity and the science of gender.
	It is absolutely impossible to do good research.
	You basically have to decide beforehand what you're going to find so that you don't upset activists.
	And that is not how you do science.
	Why has this shift occurred where all of a sudden gender and sex have become so politically and culturally charged?
	There's a really ugly history between sex researchers and transgender activists.
	In the past, if any sex researcher spoke out about science that went against activist orthodoxy or particular narratives that activists wanted to promote, Trans is very cool.
	would basically have their personal and professional reputations ruined.
	So what you see is that only experts who tow the party line and say the things that activists like, those are the people who get attention, those are the people who get lifted up in the media.
	And also I would say people are incentivized to go along with the activist narratives and gender ideology because that helps their career.
	Trans is very cool.
	Trans is a way of giving yourself value, given the way society at the moment is functioning.
	All of the things that used to give us anchors of identity have become very fluid or very volatile in recent years.
	And into that context, I think what you find then is new identities.
	start to fill the void of the vacuum.
	Whereas in the past, I might have got my sense of self-worth from being part of the village where I grew up.
	Now I might get my sense of self-worth through being part of the online community that I connect with or part of the sexual identity community.
	So now we are seeing kids that are identifying as animals going to school, and they are purring instead of answering questions, and they meow.
	And the teachers are not allowed to question it because it's considered a queer identity.
	So, you have kids that are going to school and they're saying, I'm a cat.
	And the teachers have to affirm them as a cat.
	Yes.
	So it's not just the young... The schools are literal zoos now, basically.
	They are.
	I am a 27 year old transgender woman.
	I am a wolf therian and a member of the furry fandom.
	When and how did you discover this inner wolfness?
	Probably around age 10 or 11.
	There's so much to this.
	It's so brilliant.
	The psychiatrist just speaks with such clarity in a definitive way.
	My favorite is a store owner who put up the sign, if you've got a dick, you're not a chick.
	And then this transgender councilman comes down and says, he's a, you know, he's a woman, a transgender woman is a woman.
	And he replies, he said, well, if he comes in and thinks he's a sheepdog, does that mean he's a sheepdog?
	And you've got kids who think they're cats and wolves.
	I mean, I'm telling you, listen, this documentary is as important to American culture today as Dr. Strangelove is to the world.
