   Can men get pregnant?   
      
   Years ago, such a question would have been an insult to the intelligence   
   of anyone above the age of 8.   
      
   And yet, Dr. Nisha Verma, a senior advisor to the nonprofit Physicians for   
   Reproductive Health, attempted a rhetorical bob-and-weave when asked about   
   it by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) at a congressional hearing on abortion   
   pills Wednesday.   
      
   “I take care of people with many identities,” Verma said before expressing   
   a hestitation about where Hawley was going with his line of questioning.   
      
   “The goal is just to establish a biological reality,” Hawley said. “You   
   just said a moment ago that science and evidence should control, not   
   politics. So let’s just test that proposition. Can men get pregnant?”   
      
   The doc, who presumably knows a thing or two about the reproductive system   
   in humans, dug in — to the detriment of her reputation.   
      
   She called “yes/no questions” political tools and insisted Hawley’s query   
   reduced the issue’s “complexity” and was also polarizing.   
      
   One wonders if she accused her professors of the same behavior while in   
   medical school at the University of North Carolina.   
      
   But admitting that men cannot give birth would subject Verma, a Democrat   
   witness, to ridicule inside her progressive bubble, where identity and   
   ideology trump objective truth and science.   
      
   She’s not alone.   
      
   Just a day earlier, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito asked attorney   
   Kathleen Hartnett another simple question during oral arguments over state   
   laws banning transgender athletes in women’s sports.   
      
   “And what is that definition? For equal protection purposes, what does it   
   mean to be a boy or a girl or a man or a woman?” Alito asked.   
      
   Hartnett, who was representing a transgender athlete, said “we do not have   
   a definition for the court.”   
      
   To which Alito responded: “How can a court determine whether there’s   
   discrimination on the basis of sex without knowing what sex means for   
   equal protection purposes?”   
      
   Indeed, what are we doing here? We’re arguing about an issue that hinges   
   on simple biological definition that these medical and legal professionals   
   are simply unable or, more likely, unwilling to offer.   
      
   This was a especially ridiculous week for progressives, who showed that   
   they are a seriously unserious bunch — despite declaring themselves the   
   party of science and sticking all those “In this house, we believe … ”   
   signs on their lawns.   
      
   For years, activists have used language to create an alternative reality,   
   one rewired to suit the transgender minority.   
      
   One where non-trans people are “cisgender” and gender is “assigned at   
   birth” by physicians — a phrase so outrageous, it evokes the image of   
   doctor with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, pulling an F or M out of   
   a bingo spinner.   
      
   It’s been a full scale effort from the left to blur the sex binary and   
   subjugate anyone daring enough to call it out as nonsense. In fact, the   
   act of “misgendering” once resulted in bans from Twitter. (Those   
   censorious polices are what led Elon Musk to buy the platform in 2022.)   
      
   During her 2022 Supreme Court confirmation hearings, Ketanji Brown Jackson   
   was asked by Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) to define “woman.”   
      
   “No, I can’t … I’m not a biologist,” Brown said without an ounce of shame.   
   She knew she was risking alienating the base.   
      
   Wielding control of cultural institutions and corporate culture, activists   
   as well as also regular old well-intentioned liberals tried to create a   
   new reality in which sex is not immutable and identity takes priority over   
   science.   
      
   But this isn’t 2022 anymore. No one fears the social-justice mob or   
   cancellation. Call us transphobes. Call us bigots. Deployed to dismiss a   
   point of view and avoid a conversation about real facts that would disrupt   
   their worldview, these labels have zero impact.   
      
   Our society is no long buckling under the tyranny of the pronoun police.   
      
   If the left wants to continue to wander the political desert for another   
   four years, rudderless and obsessively clinging to a fantasy, by all   
   means.   
      
   One cannot change their sex, nor can a man give birth. Only those with   
   common sense are willing to admit it.   
      
      
   --   
   November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look   
   forward to America being great again.   
      
   We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that   
   stupid people won't be offended.   
      
   Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.   
      
   Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama   
   / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.   
      
   Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the   
   The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood   
   queer liberal democrat donors.
