"Catherine McGregor, Australia's best-known transgender individual, has exposed the deep rift within the transgender community, and the extreme radicalism of the Safe Schools Coalition.

In an article published last week, McGregor highlighted the paradoxical nature of the Safe Schools programme. The contradictory claims of the programme have been largely ignored by the mainstream media, which is reluctant to fault any programme that can be described as 'anti-bullying' or 'saving lives'."

Interesting that the author describes dialectical materialism as a reasonable effort, yet denounces  Marxism.

Interesting also that transgender issues are being brought up globally at the same time, just as gay marriage was about 10 years ago, and open borders was a few years before that.

Ok, I'll be quiet now...

I agree with Ms. McGregor.

McGregor accepts the importance of gender difference, arguing that transgender individuals are merely amending a disconnect between 'our anatomy and our psychology'. She argues that 'gender is important' and that being forced to accept the idea of a genderless world 'would have killed me'.

Yikes ...wait until the regressives get a hold of that artwork.

The drive to genderless and genderfluid expression is real. We see it in fashion and in younger people the trend to not identify as purely masculine or feminine is growing. (there was a recent poll on this i believe)

Social revolution may indeed lend itself to this.I agree with Beth Andrea: Demonizing Marxist theory, while calling one its foundational theories valid is contradictory.
