Highlighting Womanhood

               Women’s History Month is wrapping up next week, and what month it was! We have been able to celebrate women for everything they do to keep our world moving. Our society would never be able to survive without them—which may seem like a very obvious concept on the face of it.

               Recently, the world has gone so far into tolerating and advocating for different minority demographics that the idea of being a woman is no longer special. Our society is ignoring the rules which were set by a higher power, and saying if you feel like a woman you can be a woman. Not only is this completely insane to those of us who subscribe to the Bayou Observant brand of common sense, but surely has to be insulting to real women.

               Take the Hershey chocolate company’s International Women’s Day campaign. One of the ads featured a man who calls himself a “transwoman” as one of their main faces of the campaign. My legitimate knee-jerk reaction when I first saw that was “I think we have people for that part already.” Women are being passed over by men acting as women to represent and celebrate women.

               It’s the wildest thing and never ends. More and more stories are coming out about men switching to women’s sports and blowing out competition, while stories of women earning starting positions in men sports barely scratches the surface. Why is one group being celebrated by many and the other by a few?

               Drew Barrymore did something strange on her TV show recently. In a conversation with a man named Dylan Mulvaney (who made a big celebration of his first year as a girl recently), she gets to her knees and then moves to the floor talking to this fellow about his journey. Vice President Kamala Harris added to the farce surrounding this person by sending them a letter congratulating him on his “first year of girlhood.” A note on that: Dylan Mulvaney is 26 years old. Saying this past year was his first year of girlhood instead of womanhood is very strange.

               Men who make these changes and try to take a bigger part of their life over the line, such as using women’s facilities, playing women sports, etc., are putting themselves in a position to be the best “woman” they can be without dealing with the real aspect of being a woman—the possibility of childbirth and everything that goes along with it. If I was a woman, and have seen men become “Woman of the Year” or become champions in women’s sports or be the face of a pro-women campaign, I would be mad as all get out.

               Part of the problem is celebrities, prominent business owners, and the government keeping bowing to the demands in ways that encourage the desire for more by the pro-trans crowd. Whenever they have been given an inch, they have tried to take a mile. Seeing everything going on should bring a new wave of feminism! And I hope that day comes soon.

               The sexes were meant to be different. It is really a sad thing that some people do not feel “right” in their God-given bodies. If there is a perfect solution to that, I don’t know, but what is happening now surely cannot be it.
