Recently, a trans person tried to tell me, and other women about periods. I was like please stfu as you never have and never will have one. The complete audacity and delusion. This person was also always victimizing themselves and leading with their issues of being autistic, and I think I might’ve been the first person to ever say “nobody cares” to their face. And about international women’s day: telling women that we need to do anything (such as uplifting other women just because we are women) is the patriarchy disguised. It is a control tactic meant to keep us small and from achieving our goals. We do enough. Being kind is great, but kindness doesn’t make people leaders or achievers. This same messaging isn’t given to men, and they’re running the world.
YES. The patriarchy disguised, spot on. Stop telling me what to do, WE ALREADY DO IT ALL. And if I dont fly around like Batman elevating anything with a vulva I'm a bad person? Fuck outta here. And you're precisely right MEN are not getting this messaging. Never have I heard "Bros help bros!" NOT ONCE.
They also claim they have period cramps and this feel the same as us! 🙄🤦🏾♀️ No sir, you don’t have period cramps and never will because you lack the organ that is cramping (contracting actually)! what you feel are stomach cramps and we get those too. And we can all tell tut the difference! The sheer nerve and audacity of mansplaining periods to biological women only a MAN can have! 😂😂😂
An Australian brand for women's swimsuits called Seafolly just hired a non binary man, with all his "original" parts and some women spoke out saying they didn't agree with this. And he's hit back saying "some women have P*nises" I'm sorry, but no we don't. And I need to see how the swimwear will look on a female body, not a hairy man with a 🍆!!! They couldn't find ONE woman to represent us?! This is misogyny at best!
But many women do support this identification movement though? I have seen so many interviews already where they are defending the trans person and saying things like anyone can be a woman😂
When I was a teen I didn't want to be a woman. I didn't like how society started to perceive me and I didn't feel I'm fitting to a role. But I realised at the age of 18 that woman is not a role. Woman is a material reality. There is no wrong way to be a woman. The same way as there is no wrong way to be a person with toes or blue eyes. I don't feel my womanhood is my identity. It's a fact. Identity is something that is partially internal and partially a social construct. I'm glad I didn't have access to mastectomy at the time, as some poor detransitioners had.
I am a social worker, I truly believe gender ideology is dangerous for kids and teens. I see soo many young people identity as “trans” or “nonbinary” and like 90% of them have a history of sexual trauma or autism, or both. I truly don’t think a lot of them are trans. I mean there’s no harm in going by a different name/pronouns for a while but I really worry about the irreversible surgeries and the effects of hormones. There really needs to be a middle ground between respecting trans people and not confusing troubled kids with this stuff
I haven’t seen this forever, so many “trans” people have been molested. It is simply not natural to feel THAT miserable in a healthy body. It’s not. There has to be a trauma bit again I’m the asshole for encouraging therapy and not surgery. Even if that not a factor IDK who thinks hormones will make them HAPPIER like dude do women seem happy to you?! WE ARE NOT.
A lot of people in my country complain about how hard it is to get approved for gender reconstruction surgery, but doesn't it make sense to go through extensive therapy to screen out those who are simply confused? Not to mention healthcare is free where I'm from, if it was easy it would be hell to pay down the line. My guess is that a large chunk of people view it as a solution to a greater problem, imagine how powerless they feel when changing gender isn't the final answer. Not to mention how much silence surrounds the topic of complications. If a boobjob can go horrible wrong, imagine what can happen when massively re-arranging the reproductive organ. Going to college I see a lot of people who go by trans and non-binary, and all of them have mental health issues and have been diagnosed previously...? I'm not claiming that there aren't people out there who were born in the wrong body, but statistically there shouldn't be that many of them.
And even worse teens are amputating their breasts & mutilating themselves for a esthetic. TikTok is evil when it comes to brainwashing especially teen girls into mental disorders. CCP are very, very happy. While they teach kids coding American/ Western kids cannot define a woman. I'm glad this has not spread to my country but I know its only a matter of time.
A few years ago it was considered a mental disorder to feel like you were “in the wrong body.” Now psychologists are telling middle schoolers that they should NOT accept themselves and they’ll give them meds and that’ll fix everything. It’s disgusting and so sad for those kids because they’ll be wondering how tf this happened to them in a few years.
Yup and instead of making therapy easier to access for everyone, the treatment is automatically the most extreme and irreversible of socially transitioning, starting hormones and getting surgery. It doesn't heal the underlying wounds that continue to be there post-transition.
I have nothing to add because you said everything I’ve been thinking. I’ve been watching for years and this might be my favourite video of yours. Thank you for saying what so many of us can’t, because if we do we’ll literally lose our jobs.
@@shallonlester Shallon trans women are not erasing women, your politicians are by banning abortions and not paying us properly. Open your eyes and focus on the bigger issue
thank you so much for this video - seriously I appreciate your views because you shoot it straight. As a former college athlete, med school student, in addition to being a woman from the south... trans women do not experience the same thing as biological cis gendered women. lol from being talked down to, being told "oh you're the nurse" when next to male medical students, pooped on for loving sports and lifting because it isn't "ladylike"... it is something males never experience. do they have their own set of struggles? absolutely. it is heartbreaking. but it is not the same. I love you shallon thank u for being so authentic ♡
I appreciate your channel so much, thank you for not just saying what you're supposed to say. Over the past few years I've become a lot more warm blooded and able to admit and discuss my own flaws, and it's helped me mature SO much. I've been in therapy and it's not even as helpful as what I take away from your videos lol
Thank you Shallon. THANK YOU. The overton window has shifted so severely, I feel i am in a madhouse. Trans women are on TikTok saying they are experiencing periods and can have children. I understand they don’t feel comfortable in their bodies and that SUCKS. I have the utmost compassion for people struggling with mental health, it makes life so hard, but what are we actually talking about now?? We’ve moved beyond compassion. It’s insane.
My daughter is 17. I tell her to listen to you and who knows she might either way she hears your words as they come out of my mouth all the time. My BFF also hears you.
I've loved you for years Shallon. This is top 10 of your videos here. And that's really saying something because you consistently put out great content and I've loved you for 5-6 years now.
I completely agree with the Owing thing. Having equal rights and equal opportunities doesn't mean you get to automatically HAVE what someone else has. It means you are free to PURSUE those things.
Shallon please do a video dedicated into diving deeper into how to fix a weak mind. When you said people who swerve too far into one thing and can’t walk middle path it made me realize that’s literally me. Thanks to your videos I’ve been working on myself a lot but this is still yet the one thing I continue to struggle with daily it’s a common pattern in my life. How do we fix it? 😫
Check out The Personal Development School here on RUclips. There you can deep dive into figuring out core wounds, attachment style, and unmet needs. Once you learn to heal your wounds and show up for yourself the swinging will stop.
I loved this video! Speaking purely from personal experience, it has always been the women that would make negative comments about my appearance (boobs, nose, body shape, etc), never a man. Also I was reading a study a few years ago that the biggest deterrent for promotion are not other men, but other women in the same company. So I don’t buy the whole “let’s lift each other up”. We each have to work on ourselves, to get to where we need to be, and then worry about supporting other women. Because of that, I now have an amazing group of female friends who don’t feel the need to compete with each other, because we’re each happy with our life! ❤
That moment about the strategic break, I swear to god men do this naturally, they always put comfort first not because they know they'll be cranky if they don't but because they know they deserve a break. I have to talk myself into making that time for myself and not feeling like I owe said time to doing the cleaning/cooking/working. Thank you for keeping it real Shallon.
This is so damn refreshing, Shallon. I am so fucking TIRED of this woke bull shit train, and I got off of it awhile ago. These certain ppl yelling in our faces to not be a "bigot" and "hateful" but some of those 1-2% people are the most hateful and mentally unhealthy people I have ever met. And absolutely, I am 35 and still growing... I don't mind ruffling anyone's feathers or someone ruffling mine. Well, context - as long as there is at least some respect in there.
@@salamander8301 Some Trans women are bitter and rude,also some of them say that they are better than us and understand womanhood better than us. Some of them wants to change our language,they believe that have periods,romantize period and want to erase the concept of biological sex,JK Rowling said that biological sex is real and they tried to cancel her.
@@salamander8301 I spoke about some trans people from the trans community,not the all community,you can support trans rights and call out toxic people. I won't attack the lesbian community,but I will attack the lesbians that were horrible specifically,that is what I am doing right now,only attacking the toxic part of the community.
I love Shallon speaking about EVERYTHING in moderation, walking the middle road. As a younger person, I would have said only the "right winged republicians" were the crazy ones, but as I've aged I've come to realize anyone advocating too hard for EITHER SIDE is ACTUALLY likely crazy. The right way to run this country would be to listen to both sides because both sides have great ideas and great points. And also both sides have TERRIBLE ideas, and we need a 3rd and 4th side to come into play. IMO. Uncap the House! Get a viable 3rd party! 4th party! Term limits on everybody. Not let the Legislative branch make the rules for us AND themselves too. Why is the Supreme Court a LIFELONG appointment?
I'm 31 and I have chronic fatigue syndrome from years of battling an eating disorder due to body dysmorphia and developing multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies. My "best days" are probably your worst nightmares. I'm in recovery but it is a long and scary road. Don't compare your worst days to someone's best days. It's not fair to you. Don't even compare yourself to what you were capable of a year ago versus now. Just do what YOU can, want, need to do TODAY. And yes sometimes just barely surviving is more than good enough💖Sometimes you can't even get out of bed for a whole day it doesn't mean you are lazy and unproductive it means your body needs rest and healing and you are in desperate need of peace and rest after years of trauma.
Hope your recovery goes well darling! I have just recently come to terms with my BED and it's so difficult to change established patterns. Everything worth doing for long term success is hard as hell, but I find myself gaining greater insight after every setback. It may seem dumb, but I keep a journal and write down my emotions and reasons for relapsing to keep tabs on my triggers. I find it easier to show myself compassion when I discover patterns. From your comment I guess we don't have the same ED, but I hope you get to the end of that road someday. You're worthy of feeling healthy and nourished. But so I don't sound too preachy... It's hard and miserable to struggle with the thing that's supposed to keep you fueled and alive. It's like being surrounded by your drug of choice 24/7 while going to addicts anonymous. I hope you have a great team behind you and get the support you need in all of this.
I was in the same boat for many years after a toxic relationship. Try high dose vitamin C and D along with oxygen therapy these things saved my life. Wishing you a full recovery and a lifetime of health.
Video Suggestion: Could you please do a video on your style?? Your clothes, your stores.. date night, travel… the fabulous outfit you’re wearing in your thumbnail. All of us fellow peacocks 🦚 would love to know!☺️ or maybe in the shallontourage??
Amen. I encourage from afar! I’m grateful that my very existence, drive, and life mission inspires and serves others, but that’s about all of the energy I have to give without taking from my cup 🙌🏾
we need international women’s day to remember our constant struggle throughout history and the present. i‘m not only thinking of the women in iran, afghanistan and ukraine but also bosniak women from my homeland bosnia who were put in rape camps during the genocide in the 90s. the fact that rape is used as a weapon against woman is beyond dehumanizing and reminds us that women will always be considered vulnerable because they are women. also knowing that almost every woman i know has dealt with domestic violence, narcissistic abuse and shame, makes this day of rememberance even more crucial. women are left to bear the brunt of the domestic household, child bearing and caring for the sick in the family. women work more than men and are at great risk for poverty when they retire. women get taught they‘re unworthy if they aren’t married and settle for a shit ass husband that will rob them of every happy emotion and self esteem. we need to teach women to be independent, to not fall victim to manipulation and exploitation and to stand up for themselves.
I agree that women are pressured to marry and are considered "unworthy" in many respects if they're not. BUT a healthy marriage has a LOT of worth when you find yourself 65 years old without the companionship and fulfillment that a relationship provides. ESPECIALLY if you don't have children.
@@mave143 i agree! women need to be taught at a young age what genuine love and safety look like in friendships and later on relationships by providing them a safe childhood. that is a precious fundamental for the rest of their life.
There used to be much more support for the trans movement when blue haired lunatics weren’t saying all sorts of ridiculous things. I 100% support any adult chasing happiness that doesn’t harm others but don’t gaslight me into saying we are the SAME. TeamTERF 💜
Well stop listening to non trans vioces, it's always non binary idiots speaking on behalf of them. Take Georgina Beyer who was mayor of a city in NZ, she advocated for trans people and people loved her. Pls don't equate all trans people with the crazies on tiktok
Yes, International Women's day feels a little patronizing, but there are some very real things women (and men) can and should practice that I still consider minimal effort. Plus I never want to give performative armchair activists an out for actual tangible things they can do to help women. 1) Talk about finances -- how much are you making in your industry vs mine, what is your long-term and short-term investing strategy, how did you afford to purchase your home, etc 2) Mentor younger women that are new to your industry, lifestyle, etc, answer their questions, give real answers about what day-to-day life looks like, give them real tips & advice to help them along in their fields 3) Be an aspirational example (You said this and I 100% agree!!) 4) Think about women FIRST when you can -- if a position is open at work, refer her first, if there's a woman who you think would enjoy a certain hobby, include her and bring her in. Of course, we can't pour from our own cup if it's empty, but unfortunately, looking around and always having the view of "how can I enable a woman in this situation" is a good habit to form, better than hollow cheerleading from afar
Enable a woman? What about enabling everyone to realise their potential. You call IWD patronizing but there is nothing more patronizing that referring or indeed hiring a woman simply because she is a woman.
This is my favorite video of yours yet and I’ve been watching you for five years now. I completely agree that the way to empower women as a whole is for all of us to focus on ourselves. I wonder if you’re a fan of Ayn Rand, I feel like you are and if not you would be. And yes I’m a TERF haha. Happy international women’s day 🤪
Exactly lead by example.! On a spiritual level I’ve learned to wish people well, but I’m leaning to not give anybody on this planet access to my time , energy, money, emotional currency for free and i feel like a better person overall.
This day is important so things get discussed and enter social consciousness. Is important to have a day to bring awarenes and reflect. Also to make social movements together at the same time. We continue the work all year, having a day help us to see what we have done and put intentions forward.
@@shallonlester Amen sista I am a proud TERF because I think everyone and their grandma knows that women's rights trump trans rights. I also wanted to add to you saying that you shouldn't give yourself up to help others with one of my favourite quotes that I remind myself of that you do not need to set yourself on fire to keep others warm.
My internet big sister, thank you for this video. You’re so on point and keep me in alignment with my truest self. If my ego starts flaring up~ I treat it with a dose of Lady Shallon. Lol love you!
I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I’m not really sure how to put it into words, but I wish that part of dealing with the identity of being trans (everyone has to “deal” with their identity, like I would have to deal with being a woman by learning about periods, self defence, shaving legs, working as a woman) is learning how to deal with having a body that is different from your perceived gender identity. I know there are trans people don’t go for sex change surgeries, but why should they? I know this isn’t the same at all, but I think about Shallon’s stance on plastic surgery in general. Fixing the nose you don’t like or the boobs you wish were bigger won’t magically make you more confident or happy with yourself. Learning to love your body and wanting to keep it healthy and happy is much more beneficial, right? I don’t mean this in a hateful or harmful way at all, I’m just curious.
Couldn't have said it better 👏👏👏 Such a good video need more we women who are unapologetic and not worrying about being an extreme political corrector this is what I love about Shallon 💞
She's just ignorant and bring hyperbolic about trans people. She dated that politician who is anti trans and he's getting alot if attention for it, she's likely just doing the same. I have never seen her be more of a dumb American.
Shallon, what I love about you is that you think like I do, except you have the cojones to actually say it with courage and confidence! Thank you for making me feel heard/seen even from behind my silent screen 💓
Shallon… you’re a libertarian at heart!! If you’re ever in Virginia? May I buy coffee and we can go to the range? This video nailed it to the wall! The wokeists seem to have moved the feminist movement back so many years. It’s frustrating
Shallon - if I could hit LIKE for EVERYTHING you said in this video, I absolutely would. I agree 100%!! Love it - Loving your channel & so happy I finally found you here - lots of catching up to do
Shallon you are the influencer i admire the most in this world! All your videos are so on point but this one is truly a wonderful wonderful gift! Thank you for speaking up for all the women who can't because otherwise they'll lose their jobs!
Oohhhh Shallon...your Covid-confidence, mentioning Jordan Peterson in a nice way, being a turf... I could literally not enjoy your content more right now 🤩 out of curiosity: are you familiar with the whole manosphere content? Or is anyone in the comments section here? I find the views of "the other side" fascinating, without agreeing with everything. But still very interesting. Stay safe and stay sane!
I read and listen to manosphere content. Because I genuinely want to know how men feel and think. But girllll there's a lot of toxicity in that whole community. Some of the things I hear being said about women is just so depressing cuz I really wanted to believe that men (at least some of them), valued women for more than physical appearance and didn't think that our expiration date is age 30. But then ya know most of these guys are prob angry incels.
Thank you for your reply! "Toxic" is sometimes an understatement... 🙈 And then so many panels with really ratchety women, who can't even build together a cohesive sentence or two, annihilated by those well prepared men with misleading or wrong interpreted facts...but once in a while, I can relate. And my husband is the profeteer. Still I think, most of what they are talking about does simply not apply to regular folks (men not considering women over 30 or single moms as long term partners, only dating 22 year olds, that have to be "peaceful and submissive"... Well bless your hearts then...while the rest of us falls in love, falls out of love but enjoys our lives as a whole). Have a nice day🍀
International Women’s Day has been a thing outside of the U.S. for a very long time. The U.S. only recently jumped on the bandwagon. But around the world, it’s an important celebration for many women. Claiming it is just performative takes away the history of the day globally
Even in sports… men that can’t hack it in men’s sports just shift right the hell over into women’s sports & take scholarships etc, and I’m so fucking done
I am a Terf, because trans women can’t truly understand the biological reality of women, the hormones, the periods, pregnancy, menopause, cultural experiences and expectations. Not to say that they don’t experience problems, they do, but those problems are not synonymous with being a women, but are exclusive to trans women, and if we can acknowledge differences as well as similarities we can have a meaningful conversation.
My family told me about the Academy Awards having "The Year of the Woman" and it was pretty much a ceremony that had no women who were nominated for much of anything unless it was a specific "must be a woman" category, and it was an extremely disappointing event, even with showing clips of great actresses performances from decades of film, to a point it was laughable to exhausting.
All I know is that Shallon Lester is always the main character. Sometimes I don’t always love what you say but I have come to live the human behind all the messages and can take what I don’t vibe with with a grain of salt and move on. Honestly at first I was a mega sensitive snowflake but I continued to watch and support your videos and podcast and really have come to think you are a really interesting and cool woman. Haven’t watched this video yet but just wanted to say that! Not sure you’ll even see this.
Can you do a part two to this using Selena and Hayley situation and the crazy fans basically being what’s wrong with our outlook and treatment towards other females. Because chileee… it’s saddens me that In a time where we’re all body positivity, feminism, gender fluidity, we still are down right bashing one women and bullying her probably into a depression over another! “But don’t say a model on a magazine is fat, that’s not feminism!” Make it make sense.
I think the women's day meaning changes were do you live , in México we dont say happy womens day , is a day of protest for feminicides, i would have thought is usa would be a reason to protest about abortion rights for example , but i guess there is a hollyday
Shallon is so right. I saw a post saying "Day are the women, but night..." Sorry but what that post gonna do? That post will help women not be attacked at night?
Excellent video! very rare to hear a reasonable view on feminism these days.. For me it's you and Camille Paglia that express this healthy take on feminism (even if Paglia is kind of a neurotic mess and sometimes expresses extreme views, but her take on postmodernism is truly great).
Dont even get me started on this mic 🙄 It's my back up one, my main one is getting repaired I'll have it back in a day. The in and out is me having to purposely turn the sound down in certain areas because it's too peaky and shrill.
I'll be honest Shallon, I don't know who these Vander people are so I don't really care. Will I still watch the video? Yes, because YOU will turn their stupid drama into a real life lesson worth watching and learning. I'd love a video run down of Tyga and why he's trash? Maybe just like a summary/rant/trash of him? I don't really recall all of the reasons why he's garbage but know he is.
I watch all your vids!! And, I agree with you 99% of the time. But I cannot get onboard with the statement that men make more than women for performing the same work. Do male youtubers make more than you? Also, have you listened to Thomas Sowell speak on this? He has an interesting argument.
To me, the whole concept of Valentine’s Day, Women’s Day, Men’s Day, Black History Month etc is ridiculous and hypocritical. Do you only love your wife and buy her gifts only on Valentine’s or Women’s Day? No and, if you do, get a grip. Do you only learn and celebrate black history during that one month? No and, if you do, are you really celebrating that culture and history or are you doing it to be politically correct? I get that it’s cute to have these days and months and stuff but if your man treats you like shit for 362 days a year but buys you bouquets and cars on your birthday, Women’s Day and Valentine’s Day, these days are nothing but an encouragement of hypocrisy. Another thing that bothers me with these things is that there are two extremists in the women’s community- one being mean girls/bullies and then those that are diehard obsessed with their identity being a “woman”. The mean girls have an issue with women that they deem as any kind of competition (whether it be beauty, brains, boys, business etc) and get cruel whilst also acting innocent in the eyes of others. Then there’s the WOMEN Allies who are so incredibly woke it’s disgusting (only buying things made by women, only watching films directed by women or saying that trans women have the right to celebrate Women’s Day too). And both of those types of women make the middleground women so confused because they don’t understand why finding female friendships are so difficult without being a threat to someone or how the toothpaste they buy is offending someone. I guess what I was trying to say with this rant is that there NEEDS to be a middle ground and Shallon, you’ve said it best.
Sometimes I don’t agree with you at all, but this time, you make a lot of sense. Thanks for the energy boost this video was, I appreciate it :) I don’t agree with all the things you said about trans people though. I do agree that we need to be able to talk about things rationally without worrying too much about being politically correct all the time. But I think you should speak a little kinder about the whole subject, words do matter too.
There has been an international men’s day since the 90’s to bring awareness of violence and other male related issues. Just because you aren’t aware of it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
This gives off the same energy as people pretending on Mother’s Day that Father’s Day doesn’t exist, be butthurt somewhere else. You don’t have to acknowledge any of these random holidays it’s just another day to meet or call the people that you love.
Step one: do not espouse that Bill Clinton “has a presence” as if he is attractive to your followers since- He’s such a big fan of Epstein Island… I was bummed you betrayed the female victims of that horror that he participated in…you’re normally soooo not, like, that type of woman.
@@shallonlester the bill Clinton call out in your “what are celebrities like in real life” video Big fan. But *that* felt weird…it’s been bothering me. Thanks for answering.
Us women are not victims. We are not unequal. We are not disadvantaged. I'm tired of being spoken about in such disempowering language. Stop with the victimhood.
Try making an account as a man on FB and speak in any research/scientific field and then comment from your woman's profile. See what happens. Someone did this. She made a man FB account and started speaking in her medical field with other ppl. Guess what? Everyone was paying attention to "him" and "he" could get away even when talking nonsense. The moment she would comment as a woman,immediately she was brushed off as she doesn't know what she's talking about. It happened to me so so many times as well. Men are not interested in what i have to say. They are there to educate me,correct me and talk over me.
You don’t have to build up women by tearing trans people down. It’s disappointing that you’re promoting conservative talk points about trans people. Trans people already know there’s a biological difference-you don’t have to shove that in their faces.
No honey it's time for you to understand that we're not conservative at all just because we agree on this one point of view.Women are losing their rights,spaces and sports!Educate yourself please!
Most of us, who are GC are not conservative. I'm a childfree woman, who is not particularly feminine, I don't care about family values, I am pro abortion, I believe in right to die as an ultimate bodily autonomy right, I'm not religious. But I did want mastectomy and hysterectomy when I was 15 because enforced gender roles made me not want to be a woman. But I realised, thankfully that woman is a biological reality and not a personality, feeling or behaviour. I'm a woman because I'm a human female and it doesn't matter I'm not maternal or if I'm dominant or if I'm not emotional. There is no wrong way to be a woman, as there is no wrong way to have blue eyes or an elbow.
@@joannawinters6592 Well when i was 15 i realized i was bisexual. So every straight person is confused and traumatized and wrong. See how that logic doesn’t hold up? Different strokes. Everyone is not you

Identity is something that is partially internal and partially a social construct.
I'm glad I didn't have access to mastectomy at the time, as some poor detransitioners had.
I am a social worker, I truly believe gender ideology is dangerous for kids and teens. I see soo many young people identity as “trans” or “nonbinary” and like 90% of them have a history of sexual trauma or autism, or both. I truly don’t think a lot of them are trans. I mean there’s no harm in going by a different name/pronouns for a while but I really worry about the irreversible surgeries and the effects of hormones. There really needs to be a middle ground between respecting trans people and not confusing troubled kids with this stuff
I haven’t seen this forever, so many “trans” people have been molested. It is simply not natural to feel THAT miserable in a healthy body. It’s not.
There has to be a trauma bit again I’m the asshole for encouraging therapy and not surgery.
Even if that not a factor IDK who thinks hormones will make them HAPPIER like dude do women seem happy to you?! WE ARE NOT.
A lot of people in my country complain about how hard it is to get approved for gender reconstruction surgery, but doesn't it make sense to go through extensive therapy to screen out those who are simply confused? Not to mention healthcare is free where I'm from, if it was easy it would be hell to pay down the line. My guess is that a large chunk of people view it as a solution to a greater problem, imagine how powerless they feel when changing gender isn't the final answer. Not to mention how much silence surrounds the topic of complications. If a boobjob can go horrible wrong, imagine what can happen when massively re-arranging the reproductive organ. Going to college I see a lot of people who go by trans and non-binary, and all of them have mental health issues and have been diagnosed previously...? I'm not claiming that there aren't people out there who were born in the wrong body, but statistically there shouldn't be that many of them.
And even worse teens are amputating their breasts & mutilating themselves for a esthetic. TikTok is evil when it comes to brainwashing especially teen girls into mental disorders. CCP are very, very happy. While they teach kids coding American/ Western kids cannot define a woman. I'm glad this has not spread to my country but I know its only a matter of time.
A few years ago it was considered a mental disorder to feel like you were “in the wrong body.”
Now psychologists are telling middle schoolers that they should NOT accept themselves and they’ll give them meds and that’ll fix everything.
It’s disgusting and so sad for those kids because they’ll be wondering how tf this happened to them in a few years.
Yup and instead of making therapy easier to access for everyone, the treatment is automatically the most extreme and irreversible of socially transitioning, starting hormones and getting surgery. It doesn't heal the underlying wounds that continue to be there post-transition.
I have nothing to add because you said everything I’ve been thinking. I’ve been watching for years and this might be my favourite video of yours.
Thank you for saying what so many of us can’t, because if we do we’ll literally lose our jobs.
The fact that that's true is the most fucked up part of all. STOP ERASING WOMEN AND LOGIC IN GENERAL!
It's crazy because a decade ago Shallon would have been considered far Left.... liberals have gone Communist which turns even far Left USA types off
@@shallonlester Shallon trans women are not erasing women, your politicians are by banning abortions and not paying us properly. Open your eyes and focus on the bigger issue
thank you so much for this video - seriously I appreciate your views because you shoot it straight. As a former college athlete, med school student, in addition to being a woman from the south... trans women do not experience the same thing as biological cis gendered women. lol from being talked down to, being told "oh you're the nurse" when next to male medical students, pooped on for loving sports and lifting because it isn't "ladylike"... it is something males never experience. do they have their own set of struggles? absolutely. it is heartbreaking. but it is not the same. I love you shallon thank u for being so authentic ♡
I appreciate your channel so much, thank you for not just saying what you're supposed to say. Over the past few years I've become a lot more warm blooded and able to admit and discuss my own flaws, and it's helped me mature SO much. I've been in therapy and it's not even as helpful as what I take away from your videos lol
Thank you Shallon. THANK YOU.
The overton window has shifted so severely, I feel i am in a madhouse.
Trans women are on TikTok saying they are experiencing periods and can have children.
I understand they don’t feel comfortable in their bodies and that SUCKS. I have the utmost compassion for people struggling with mental health, it makes life so hard, but what are we actually talking about now?? We’ve moved beyond compassion. It’s insane.
My daughter is 17. I tell her to listen to you and who knows she might either way she hears your words as they come out of my mouth all the time. My BFF also hears you.
Haha amazing I'm sure you're raising a bad ass alpha female just like her mama!
I've loved you for years Shallon. This is top 10 of your videos here. And that's really saying something because you consistently put out great content and I've loved you for 5-6 years now.
I completely agree with the Owing thing. Having equal rights and equal opportunities doesn't mean you get to automatically HAVE what someone else has. It means you are free to PURSUE those things.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Shallon please do a video dedicated into diving deeper into how to fix a weak mind. When you said people who swerve too far into one thing and can’t walk middle path it made me realize that’s literally me. Thanks to your videos I’ve been working on myself a lot but this is still yet the one thing I continue to struggle with daily it’s a common pattern in my life. How do we fix it? 😫
Check out The Personal Development School here on RUclips. There you can deep dive into figuring out core wounds, attachment style, and unmet needs. Once you learn to heal your wounds and show up for yourself the swinging will stop.
I loved this video! Speaking purely from personal experience, it has always been the women that would make negative comments about my appearance (boobs, nose, body shape, etc), never a man. Also I was reading a study a few years ago that the biggest deterrent for promotion are not other men, but other women in the same company. So I don’t buy the whole “let’s lift each other up”. We each have to work on ourselves, to get to where we need to be, and then worry about supporting other women. Because of that, I now have an amazing group of female friends who don’t feel the need to compete with each other, because we’re each happy with our life! ❤
That moment about the strategic break, I swear to god men do this naturally, they always put comfort first not because they know they'll be cranky if they don't but because they know they deserve a break. I have to talk myself into making that time for myself and not feeling like I owe said time to doing the cleaning/cooking/working. Thank you for keeping it real Shallon.
This is so damn refreshing, Shallon. I am so fucking TIRED of this woke bull shit train, and I got off of it awhile ago. These certain ppl yelling in our faces to not be a "bigot" and "hateful" but some of those 1-2% people are the most hateful and mentally unhealthy people I have ever met. And absolutely, I am 35 and still growing... I don't mind ruffling anyone's feathers or someone ruffling mine. Well, context - as long as there is at least some respect in there.
I’m a terf. I think it’s disingenuous to state that trans women and biological women are synonymous terms. It’s just not. Trans women are trans women.
@@salamander8301 Some Trans women are bitter and rude,also some of them say that they are better than us and understand womanhood better than us.
Some of them wants to change our language,they believe that have periods,romantize period and want to erase the concept of biological sex,JK Rowling said that biological sex is real and they tried to cancel her.
I’m also a terf and that’s just so weird to me that people try to make is seem like a bad thing 😌
@@sandychics would you think was okay to be anti LGBTQ? It's the same thing, it's not weird to be a TERF it's hateful
@@dhsf5937 so if a few lesbians are horrible does that mean you attack the lesbian community, call them illegitimate and call yourself a LERF?
@@salamander8301 I spoke about some trans people from the trans community,not the all community,you can support trans rights and call out toxic people.
I won't attack the lesbian community,but I will attack the lesbians that were horrible specifically,that is what I am doing right now,only attacking the toxic part of the community.
I love what you say, my ex tried telling me who I was and I was like boy stfu!!! It was so frustrating yet I’m glad I didn’t allow his negativity
I love Shallon speaking about EVERYTHING in moderation, walking the middle road. As a younger person, I would have said only the "right winged republicians" were the crazy ones, but as I've aged I've come to realize anyone advocating too hard for EITHER SIDE is ACTUALLY likely crazy.
The right way to run this country would be to listen to both sides because both sides have great ideas and great points. And also both sides have TERRIBLE ideas, and we need a 3rd and 4th side to come into play. IMO.
Uncap the House! Get a viable 3rd party! 4th party! Term limits on everybody. Not let the Legislative branch make the rules for us AND themselves too. Why is the Supreme Court a LIFELONG appointment?
Interesting
I'm 31 and I have chronic fatigue syndrome from years of battling an eating disorder due to body dysmorphia and developing multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies. My "best days" are probably your worst nightmares. I'm in recovery but it is a long and scary road.
Don't compare your worst days to someone's best days. It's not fair to you. Don't even compare yourself to what you were capable of a year ago versus now. Just do what YOU can, want, need to do TODAY.
And yes sometimes just barely surviving is more than good enough💖Sometimes you can't even get out of bed for a whole day it doesn't mean you are lazy and unproductive it means your body needs rest and healing and you are in desperate need of peace and rest after years of trauma.
Hope your recovery goes well darling! I have just recently come to terms with my BED and it's so difficult to change established patterns. Everything worth doing for long term success is hard as hell, but I find myself gaining greater insight after every setback. It may seem dumb, but I keep a journal and write down my emotions and reasons for relapsing to keep tabs on my triggers. I find it easier to show myself compassion when I discover patterns. From your comment I guess we don't have the same ED, but I hope you get to the end of that road someday. You're worthy of feeling healthy and nourished. But so I don't sound too preachy... It's hard and miserable to struggle with the thing that's supposed to keep you fueled and alive. It's like being surrounded by your drug of choice 24/7 while going to addicts anonymous. I hope you have a great team behind you and get the support you need in all of this.
I was in the same boat for many years after a toxic relationship. Try high dose vitamin C and D along with oxygen therapy these things saved my life. Wishing you a full recovery and a lifetime of health.
Video Suggestion:
Could you please do a video on your style?? Your clothes, your stores.. date night, travel… the fabulous outfit you’re wearing in your thumbnail. All of us fellow peacocks 🦚 would love to know!☺️ or maybe in the shallontourage??
Amen. I encourage from afar! I’m grateful that my very existence, drive, and life mission inspires and serves others, but that’s about all of the energy I have to give without taking from my cup 🙌🏾
we need international women’s day to remember our constant struggle throughout history and the present. i‘m not only thinking of the women in iran, afghanistan and ukraine but also bosniak women from my homeland bosnia who were put in rape camps during the genocide in the 90s. the fact that rape is used as a weapon against woman is beyond dehumanizing and reminds us that women will always be considered vulnerable because they are women.
also knowing that almost every woman i know has dealt with domestic violence, narcissistic abuse and shame, makes this day of rememberance even more crucial. women are left to bear the brunt of the domestic household, child bearing and caring for the sick in the family. women work more than men and are at great risk for poverty when they retire. women get taught they‘re unworthy if they aren’t married and settle for a shit ass husband that will rob them of every happy emotion and self esteem. we need to teach women to be independent, to not fall victim to manipulation and exploitation and to stand up for themselves.
I agree that women are pressured to marry and are considered "unworthy" in many respects if they're not. BUT a healthy marriage has a LOT of worth when you find yourself 65 years old without the companionship and fulfillment that a relationship provides. ESPECIALLY if you don't have children.
@@mave143 i agree! women need to be taught at a young age what genuine love and safety look like in friendships and later on relationships by providing them a safe childhood. that is a precious fundamental for the rest of their life.
There used to be much more support for the trans movement when blue haired lunatics weren’t saying all sorts of ridiculous things. I 100% support any adult chasing happiness that doesn’t harm others but don’t gaslight me into saying we are the SAME. TeamTERF 💜
Well stop listening to non trans vioces, it's always non binary idiots speaking on behalf of them. Take Georgina Beyer who was mayor of a city in NZ, she advocated for trans people and people loved her. Pls don't equate all trans people with the crazies on tiktok
So well-said! I'm all for equal rights but we should be able to talk about it without risking being called offensive.
Yes, International Women's day feels a little patronizing, but there are some very real things women (and men) can and should practice that I still consider minimal effort. Plus I never want to give performative armchair activists an out for actual tangible things they can do to help women. 1) Talk about finances -- how much are you making in your industry vs mine, what is your long-term and short-term investing strategy, how did you afford to purchase your home, etc 2) Mentor younger women that are new to your industry, lifestyle, etc, answer their questions, give real answers about what day-to-day life looks like, give them real tips & advice to help them along in their fields 3) Be an aspirational example (You said this and I 100% agree!!) 4) Think about women FIRST when you can -- if a position is open at work, refer her first, if there's a woman who you think would enjoy a certain hobby, include her and bring her in. Of course, we can't pour from our own cup if it's empty, but unfortunately, looking around and always having the view of "how can I enable a woman in this situation" is a good habit to form, better than hollow cheerleading from afar
Enable a woman? What about enabling everyone to realise their potential. You call IWD patronizing but there is nothing more patronizing that referring or indeed hiring a woman simply because she is a woman.
@@EmilyKT352 kind of like affirmative action, right?
You make my day so much better. Thank you!!
Second that !
YOU GUYS make mine better! You have no idea!
@@shallonlester oh my gosh!! 💗💗💗💗
This is my favorite video of yours yet and I’ve been watching you for five years now. I completely agree that the way to empower women as a whole is for all of us to focus on ourselves. I wonder if you’re a fan of Ayn Rand, I feel like you are and if not you would be. And yes I’m a TERF haha. Happy international women’s day 🤪
TERF is the only way to go! Otherwise it's just servitude and pandering to biological men, just like under patriarchy lolll
Exactly lead by example.! On a spiritual level I’ve learned to wish people well, but I’m leaning to not give anybody on this planet access to my time , energy, money, emotional currency for free and i feel like a better person overall.
This day is important so things get discussed and enter social consciousness. Is important to have a day to bring awarenes and reflect. Also to make social movements together at the same time. We continue the work all year, having a day help us to see what we have done and put intentions forward.
I’m a terf and proud of it. If toxic masculinity’s ever been real this is PEAK misogyny and it’s disgusting
Couldn't agree more, we have become so INTERNALLY misogynistic that WE are promoting men over us, in the most egregious nonsensical way.
@@shallonlester Amen sista I am a proud TERF because I think everyone and their grandma knows that women's rights trump trans rights. I also wanted to add to you saying that you shouldn't give yourself up to help others with one of my favourite quotes that I remind myself of that you do not need to set yourself on fire to keep others warm.
Same here! They think they are doing something calling us Terfs lmao I embrace that term! Long live J.K.Rowling!🤪
PROUD TERF HERE ❤ Terf Shalligators, rise up!
Ew lol
My internet big sister, thank you for this video. You’re so on point and keep me in alignment with my truest self. If my ego starts flaring up~ I treat it with a dose of Lady Shallon. Lol love you!
I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I’m not really sure how to put it into words, but I wish that part of dealing with the identity of being trans (everyone has to “deal” with their identity, like I would have to deal with being a woman by learning about periods, self defence, shaving legs, working as a woman) is learning how to deal with having a body that is different from your perceived gender identity. I know there are trans people don’t go for sex change surgeries, but why should they?
I know this isn’t the same at all, but I think about Shallon’s stance on plastic surgery in general. Fixing the nose you don’t like or the boobs you wish were bigger won’t magically make you more confident or happy with yourself. Learning to love your body and wanting to keep it healthy and happy is much more beneficial, right?
I don’t mean this in a hateful or harmful way at all, I’m just curious.
Couldn't have said it better 👏👏👏
Such a good video need more we women who are unapologetic and not worrying about being an extreme political corrector this is what I love about Shallon 💞
She's just ignorant and bring hyperbolic about trans people. She dated that politician who is anti trans and he's getting alot if attention for it, she's likely just doing the same. I have never seen her be more of a dumb American.
@@td1425 if she's sitting the proudly proclaiming to be a TERF she is hurt a group of people. Trans people
Shallon, what I love about you is that you think like I do, except you have the cojones to actually say it with courage and confidence! Thank you for making me feel heard/seen even from behind my silent screen 💓
Shallon… you’re a libertarian at heart!! If you’re ever in Virginia? May I buy coffee and we can go to the range?
This video nailed it to the wall! The wokeists seem to have moved the feminist movement back so many years.
It’s frustrating
Shallon - if I could hit LIKE for EVERYTHING you said in this video, I absolutely would. I agree 100%!! Love it - Loving your channel & so happy I finally found you here - lots of catching up to do
Shallon you are the influencer i admire the most in this world! All your videos are so on point but this one is truly a wonderful wonderful gift! Thank you for speaking up for all the women who can't because otherwise they'll lose their jobs!
Oohhhh Shallon...your Covid-confidence, mentioning Jordan Peterson in a nice way, being a turf... I could literally not enjoy your content more right now 🤩 out of curiosity: are you familiar with the whole manosphere content? Or is anyone in the comments section here? I find the views of "the other side" fascinating, without agreeing with everything. But still very interesting.
Stay safe and stay sane!
I read and listen to manosphere content. Because I genuinely want to know how men feel and think. But girllll there's a lot of toxicity in that whole community. Some of the things I hear being said about women is just so depressing cuz I really wanted to believe that men (at least some of them), valued women for more than physical appearance and didn't think that our expiration date is age 30.
But then ya know most of these guys are prob angry incels.
Thank you for your reply! "Toxic" is sometimes an understatement... 🙈 And then so many panels with really ratchety women, who can't even build together a cohesive sentence or two, annihilated by those well prepared men with misleading or wrong interpreted facts...but once in a while, I can relate. And my husband is the profeteer. Still I think, most of what they are talking about does simply not apply to regular folks (men not considering women over 30 or single moms as long term partners, only dating 22 year olds, that have to be "peaceful and submissive"... Well bless your hearts then...while the rest of us falls in love, falls out of love but enjoys our lives as a whole).
Have a nice day🍀
Thank you for pushing us to he independent and take responsibilty in our own lives❤
International Women’s Day has been a thing outside of the U.S. for a very long time. The U.S. only recently jumped on the bandwagon. But around the world, it’s an important celebration for many women. Claiming it is just performative takes away the history of the day globally
Yeah but then you have men on the same day asking „what about MEN’s day???”. Like you cannot celebrate Women’s Day without this BS 🫠
Thank you shallon, you and your videos are awesome!! ❤️
This is brilliant I think every woman should watch this video
Even in sports… men that can’t hack it in men’s sports just shift right the hell over into women’s sports & take scholarships etc, and I’m so fucking done
I am a Terf, because trans women can’t truly understand the biological reality of women, the hormones, the periods, pregnancy, menopause, cultural experiences and expectations.
Not to say that they don’t experience problems, they do, but those problems are not synonymous with being a women, but are exclusive to trans women, and if we can acknowledge differences as well as similarities we can have a meaningful conversation.
My family told me about the Academy Awards having "The Year of the Woman" and it was pretty much a ceremony that had no women who were nominated for much of anything unless it was a specific "must be a woman" category, and it was an extremely disappointing event, even with showing clips of great actresses performances from decades of film, to a point it was laughable to exhausting.
Soo happy to see you uploaded 😁
You look beautiful btw!!!
All I know is that Shallon Lester is always the main character. Sometimes I don’t always love what you say but I have come to live the human behind all the messages and can take what I don’t vibe with with a grain of salt and move on.
Honestly at first I was a mega sensitive snowflake but I continued to watch and support your videos and podcast and really have come to think you are a really interesting and cool woman.
Haven’t watched this video yet but just wanted to say that! Not sure you’ll even see this.
Love your videos!! Looking gorgeous as ever
Can you do a part two to this using Selena and Hayley situation and the crazy fans basically being what’s wrong with our outlook and treatment towards other females. Because chileee… it’s saddens me that In a time where we’re all body positivity, feminism, gender fluidity, we still are down right bashing one women and bullying her probably into a depression over another! “But don’t say a model on a magazine is fat, that’s not feminism!” Make it make sense.
Omg you look fab in that thumbnail!!!
I love this woman ❤❤
me too
I think the women's day meaning changes were do you live , in México we dont say happy womens day , is a day of protest for feminicides, i would have thought is usa would be a reason to protest about abortion rights for example , but i guess there is a hollyday
This thumbnail picture is everything!!
Within 10 minutes and this is the best video 😂 feel ready to kick a door through.
🎉🎉
Love this video! I’m terf all the way and I also have been incorporating dance. Been learning line dancing in South Carolina.
Shallon is so right.
I saw a post saying "Day are the women, but night..."
Sorry but what that post gonna do? That post will help women not be attacked at night?
The butthurt bros in the comment section 😌
They make my skin crawl🤢🤮
Shallon, you are glowing in this video!
Dancing is amazing to get out of your head!
Term I am sick of “ Safe space.”
Inclusive
Intersectional
Neuro-divergent
Make these terms disappear PLEASE 🙏🏼
Excellent video! very rare to hear a reasonable view on feminism these days.. For me it's you and Camille Paglia that express this healthy take on feminism (even if Paglia is kind of a neurotic mess and sometimes expresses extreme views, but her take on postmodernism is truly great).
My biggest issue is with women that attack each other for the simple fact of not think equall, we don't have to be equall.
Hello from Brazil! You are such an inspiring woman. Beautiful, smart, fun, authentic! 😍😘
I Love the ranty vids!!
Amazing video Shallon!!
One of my favorite episodes! 💛
I think your microphone is going, second video in a row where the audio has a vibrating echo that goes in and out.
Dont even get me started on this mic 🙄 It's my back up one, my main one is getting repaired I'll have it back in a day. The in and out is me having to purposely turn the sound down in certain areas because it's too peaky and shrill.
I didn’t notice a problem at all
You should do a TED talk and a book on this
You're brilliant and keep authentic!
I love you you said all what was needed to be said
Great episode, Shallon! You look great as always! Did you watch The Chris Rock Special? I loved it. I have a hunch you would like it too:)
He tip toed too much. You can tell he is scared to go full force
Internationally it’s such a wonderful important holiday. Idk how it made it into the US, but it’s not a vibe here at all
You look beautiful queen!
Thank you!!
I'll be honest Shallon, I don't know who these Vander people are so I don't really care. Will I still watch the video? Yes, because YOU will turn their stupid drama into a real life lesson worth watching and learning.
I'd love a video run down of Tyga and why he's trash? Maybe just like a summary/rant/trash of him? I don't really recall all of the reasons why he's garbage but know he is.
Great video! Just her ego show engagement :)

I watch all your vids!! And, I agree with you 99% of the time. But I cannot get onboard with the statement that men make more than women for performing the same work. Do male youtubers make more than you? Also, have you listened to Thomas Sowell speak on this? He has an interesting argument.
To me, the whole concept of Valentine’s Day, Women’s Day, Men’s Day, Black History Month etc is ridiculous and hypocritical. Do you only love your wife and buy her gifts only on Valentine’s or Women’s Day? No and, if you do, get a grip. Do you only learn and celebrate black history during that one month? No and, if you do, are you really celebrating that culture and history or are you doing it to be politically correct? I get that it’s cute to have these days and months and stuff but if your man treats you like shit for 362 days a year but buys you bouquets and cars on your birthday, Women’s Day and Valentine’s Day, these days are nothing but an encouragement of hypocrisy.
Another thing that bothers me with these things is that there are two extremists in the women’s community- one being mean girls/bullies and then those that are diehard obsessed with their identity being a “woman”. The mean girls have an issue with women that they deem as any kind of competition (whether it be beauty, brains, boys, business etc) and get cruel whilst also acting innocent in the eyes of others. Then there’s the WOMEN Allies who are so incredibly woke it’s disgusting (only buying things made by women, only watching films directed by women or saying that trans women have the right to celebrate Women’s Day too). And both of those types of women make the middleground women so confused because they don’t understand why finding female friendships are so difficult without being a threat to someone or how the toothpaste they buy is offending someone.
I guess what I was trying to say with this rant is that there NEEDS to be a middle ground and Shallon, you’ve said it best.
💯❤️
can you provide where you got stats on suicide rates? just curious! Thanks
Sometimes I don’t agree with you at all, but this time, you make a lot of sense. Thanks for the energy boost this video was, I appreciate it :) I don’t agree with all the things you said about trans people though. I do agree that we need to be able to talk about things rationally without worrying too much about being politically correct all the time. But I think you should speak a little kinder about the whole subject, words do matter too.

Why is this video so angry lmao? And it's "believe all women ENOUGH TO INVESTIGATE" because we believe all men enough to investigate
I feel awkward about women's day. There's no men's day for a reason. Cringe to be special just for being 50 percent of the population 😬
There is an international men’s day though, it’s in November.
Why do you want to be celebrated anyway?? It's cringe af.
Actually in a lot of countries there’s a woman’s day and also a man’s day
But only woman’s day is internationally the same day, it’s a communist day
There has been an international men’s day since the 90’s to bring awareness of violence and other male related issues. Just because you aren’t aware of it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
This gives off the same energy as people pretending on Mother’s Day that Father’s Day doesn’t exist, be butthurt somewhere else. You don’t have to acknowledge any of these random holidays it’s just another day to meet or call the people that you love.
Step one: do not espouse that Bill Clinton “has a presence” as if he is attractive to your followers since-

@@shallonlester the bill Clinton call out in your “what are celebrities like in real life” video
Big fan. But *that* felt weird…it’s been bothering me. Thanks for answering.
I think by "presence" she means charisma. It's not a value judgement either way.
Us women are not victims. We are not unequal. We are not disadvantaged. I'm tired of being spoken about in such disempowering language. Stop with the victimhood.
Try making an account as a man on FB and speak in any research/scientific field and then comment from your woman's profile. See what happens. Someone did this. She made a man FB account and started speaking in her medical field with other ppl. Guess what? Everyone was paying attention to "him" and "he" could get away even when talking nonsense. The moment she would comment as a woman,immediately she was brushed off as she doesn't know what she's talking about. It happened to me so so many times as well. Men are not interested in what i have to say. They are there to educate me,correct me and talk over me.

OK sweetheart, make a daddy coffee now.
You don’t have to build up women by tearing trans people down. It’s disappointing that you’re promoting conservative talk points about trans people. Trans people already know there’s a biological difference-you don’t have to shove that in their faces.
No honey it's time for you to understand that we're not conservative at all just because we agree on this one point of view.Women are losing their rights,spaces and sports!Educate yourself please!
If you think this is the comment section where you can man's plan to women. You got it wrong honey
Most of us, who are GC are not conservative. I'm a childfree woman, who is not particularly feminine, I don't care about family values, I am pro abortion, I believe in right to die as an ultimate bodily autonomy right, I'm not religious.
But I did want mastectomy and hysterectomy when I was 15 because enforced gender roles made me not want to be a woman. But I realised, thankfully that woman is a biological reality and not a personality, feeling or behaviour. I'm a woman because I'm a human female and it doesn't matter I'm not maternal or if I'm dominant or if I'm not emotional. There is no wrong way to be a woman, as there is no wrong way to have blue eyes or an elbow.
@@criticalthinking9924 what rights have we lost SPECIFICALLY because of transgender women? No one is specifying this. Show the stats.
@@joannawinters6592 Well when i was 15 i realized i was bisexual. So every straight person is confused and traumatized and wrong. See how that logic doesn’t hold up? Different strokes. Everyone is not you
I have a question, what rights do men have that women don’t. Just asking
Wrong channel lmao
Answer: none really. They can get away with a higher body count, thats about it. Feminism has gone too far.
