activism by restoring a sense of balance to the current debate. Transgender people deserve respect and legal protections, but trans women are not identical to women. Contrary to what activists would have you believe, many transgender women agree — biology matters, and these associated differences have important implications for women's rights and safety.
The tribunal ruling also underscored the importance of allowing different perspectives to coexist in society, particularly when a given opinion, no matter how controversial, is based in truth. As time wears on and gender ideology continues to reduce women to their bodily functions while eroding their personal boundaries and rightful opportunities, I don't doubt that more women will feel emboldened to speak up about what they really think.
