We have reached the tipping point on the gender issue. If I had known that electing a trans-identifying man to Congress would so definitively advance the discussion of safety and privacy in women-only spaces, I might have donated to the campaign myself. For over a decade now, women have been speaking out about the problem of men who believe they are women seeking "refuge" in our bathrooms, locker rooms, college dorms, prison cells, and even sometimes our beds.
The pressure has grown as more and more Americans were confronted by the very real demands required by the "inclusion" of "gender diverse" people on their terms. Schools and sports teams have wrestled with whether, when, and how to accommodate the demands of transgender activists while ensuring the safety, privacy, and sanity of those folks unwilling to play along with pretending a person can change his or her sex.
The Biden-Harris administration was remarkable for shattering norms in this regard. In addition to appointing openly transsexual men to roles in the administration and hosting them for media appearances at the White House, President Biden creepily assured transgender students that he "had their backs."
