You had it correct, right from the start, US Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY). There are only two sexes – male and female. Him and Her. And you were right to state (reformatted, emphasis mine):
While speaking to graduates at the University of Wyoming commencement on Saturday, Lummis observed that truth itself is under attack in our postmodern world, including the “fundamental scientific truth” about biological sex.
“[This includes] our rights to freedom of speech, religion, property, assembly, and to keep and bear arms,” Lummis said, adding, “Even fundamental scientific truths, such as the existence of two sexes — male and female — are subject to challenge these days.”
The crowd of graduates immediately reacted with loud jeers and boos.
And then she immediately groveled in abject misery; she said she was sorry for trying to achieve absolution from the Woke/Gender Identity crazed Mob. Silly creature – she made it worse in trying to make it appear that she was “one of them” from the very beginning – she “messaged” wrongly. Hey, Senator, wrong twice over!
The Wyoming senator apologized for making people feel “un-welcomed” and “disrespected” for affirming the truth about biological sex.
“My reference to the existence of two sexes was intended to highlight the times in which we find ourselves, times in which the metric of biological sex is under debate with potential implications for the shared Wyoming value of equality,” she said in a statement, according to Oil City News.
“I share the fundamental belief that women and men are equal, but also acknowledge that there are biological differences and circumstances in which these differences need to be recognized,” she continued. “That being said, it was never my intention to make anyone feel un-welcomed or disrespected, and for that I apologize. I have appreciated hearing from members of the University of Wyoming community on this issue, and I look forward to continuing this dialogue.”
One, they don’t believe you. Two, in yielding to these bunch of college kids who’ve not done much in life (for most of them) other than taking tests, you have shown that you have no Principles underlying what you said. Now, others of us start to wonder: do you have any kind of foundational philosophy that is non-negotiable as well? After all, you flipped and then flopped pretty quick in that Progressive breeze, didn’t you?
And she was wrong again – she hasn’t realized that she just waved a white flag in the Culture War. She’ll be apologizing for EVAH for this. And for anything else, for that matter. This crowd will NEVER let her off the hook as they now know that she can be manipulated merely by making rude noises. Some might even do it just for the fun of it.
And she was wrong in this way:
The Wyoming senator apologized for making people feel “un-welcomed” and “disrespected” for affirming the truth about biological sex.
They let you know that real reality no longer exists – and you failed to convince them of it. No, Senator – they disrespected YOU. They made YOU, a distinguished Visitor and invited Guest, be unwelcome (loud, and clear). Just plain manners would have required at least the veneer of “listening respect” from them. They showed none and have none – so none should be showed in return.
She also doesn’t realize that she just contributed to her own political downfall. Transgenderism’s purpose IS to help create the Culture Chaos they long for. This is already throwing sexual relations into a tizzy – what do I, what can I do with this other identity that I can’t do with another, and what words do I use with either or both of them – or is it something else altogether? Talk about being confused! How much harder can the Left make normal relationships possible?
Hint: that’s the endpoint. Say goodbye to the nuclear family – the building block of American Society. The Left has been trying to destroy that for over six decades. Why?
Welcome, not to Mom and Dad, but to Big Government that will love you (you think) and take care of you (wanna bet on that?).
The folks behind this all understand (all too well) that this is merely a tactic, a technique, to reach that level of Societal chaos in which people will be BEGGING to be saved. They understand both that people desire to belong (even if it is one of a thousand (or more) made-up identities) and be needed. They are supplying both in their warped sense of The Sexual Identity Church.
And when that Chaos hits maximum, those Leftists already in place (like the Obama retreads running Biden’s Administration) will be HAPPY to present themselves as your saviors. While a lot of the “participants” have been convinced that this is normal, it’s not. But as the ramifications of this slowly permeate our Society, there are going to be an awful lot of “rooked” people ready to go all postal for what has been done to them.
And now the Senator is complicit in all this. Instead of standing tall, Lummis puddled. She needs one of these (even if she is a she):
Pretty soon, we’ll have real ones ready.
