We are supposed to believe w/o question that Ann has been raped when she says so a week after climbing into bed w/Joe and enthusiastically participating in it all, but insists that Joe didn't ask the last 4 permission questions, whatever they may be. This accusation could cost Joe at least his college career at that school and maybe even his hoped for career. He and his representative - even if he is allowed to have one - are not even allowed to question Ann.
On the other hand, if Brad - clearly a guy - shows up in the locker room of a college swim team to share an open shower with the coeds, we are supposed to support him w/o question if he says he's really a girl. That none of the females in the shower w/him have agreed in any way whatsoever to share their private space w/him is of no consequence. He's right; they're bigots.
I won't go into environmental, economic, education, and a host of other issues affected by the open borders attitude. I could write a book...
I've been kicking myself for 60 years for having failed to think of claiming that I was a girl so that I could get into the girls' locker room in eighth grade. Oh, if I'd just been more.........................................creative!!!
Decades ago, Michael Barone discussed in an entry in the Almanac of American Politics how a left-wing college was stymied by a student who streaked while naked through a public space, until the administration "had the ingenuity to charge him with sexual harassment." At the time I thought this was funny, and cheered the administration. The strategy seemed a brilliant and admirable turnaround from libertinism. Now it's not so funny. Once the left weaponizes the harassment charge there is no stopping point.
Using a cat as an example made me smile because that’s what I’d like to be - a cat - if I were to sign on to this lunacy. I love to sleep, desire treats, an am basically lazy. And I use this as an example when I poke fun at wokesters. Which I do frequently. 😊
Well said. A number of years ago one of my children was at a meeting with an undergraduate associate dean when this type of topic came up. He asked the dean what happens “if I identify as an Apache helicopter.” The dean was not amused.
In your anecdote the teacher’s reaction reminds me of how, in the old Soviet Union, people were sent to “re-education camps” for expressing subversive ideas. I guess anyone with traditional notions of biological sex requires re-education?
It's not going to be about the things you say as long as Donald Trump represents "our side". If he is the nominee it will be about him and his lunacy, narcissism and manifest unfittness for anything but a forced retirement.
I agree with your conclusion. As I'm sure you've seen, Paul and I oppose giving the nomination to Trump, for the reasons you note (and numerous others).
The inconsistencies alone will kill you.

That's why I subscribe.
