Oh really?
That first bullet point is just so much blather, unless what they are sneakily doing is pretending that the rules and expectations around gender are the same thing as the categories female and male. I think that probably is what they’re doing, and it’s both pompous and deceptive. Of course “understandings of sex” have always been binary, which is not to deny that views on how women and men have to behave are contingent and various.
Yes of course the rules around gender are “open to political manipulation”; we know that; it does not follow that men can be women.
Wow, we’ve escalated from ‘harm’ to ‘peril’!!! I’d love for these people to specify exactly what ‘peril’ they imagine these other people will find themselves in (I’ve mentioned in a comment on a previous post that I actually did ask a DEI presenter in person to do this, and of course she wasn’t able to).
“…open to political manipulation in service of a variety of agendas.”
Like trans rights, perchance? Like silencing women? Converting gay people into surgically created facsimiles of straight people? Any of those agendas?
