My advice to men who think they are women. If you think that, there are a few things that you need to understand. First of all is that you are still a man because you can't change your biological sex. It's okay to dress any way you wish and to adopt any superficial, stereotypical attributes of women that you desire. Live your life. No one should care, I certainly don't.
However, because women are entitled to be treated fairly and to enjoy privacy from men there are certain things that are prohibited to you and me because we are men. You can't compete against women in most sports because it would be unfair. You can't go into women's private places like restrooms and locker rooms because that would make them feel unsafe. Finally, if you are a criminal you certainly can't be imprisoned with women.
That's it, just like me.
BTW, being men in America we are considered by many to be among the most privileged individuals in the world. Enjoy your status.
Well said. Boundaries aren’t hate—they’re common sense. We can respect people’s choices without dismantling reality or women’s rights in the process. That balance used to be obvious. Now it’s radical.
I love reading your Substack. I love it so much i read most of them to my wife as she says” right on, and i need to meet this woman”. LOL. Your ability to hit the proverbial nail on the head is scary good. Your truths are spot on laced with the right comedy and sarcasm placed in all the right spots. Safe travels and look forward to the next installment.
"We stop asking for permission and start taking up space—as men, as women, as divine, flawed, fire-breathing humans who are DONE being gaslit by cowards in lab coats and executives who think gender is a trend."
This is the manifesto for our times. Breathe that fire!
Thank you from a gen X woman sad at what we have lost. You summed up everything I’ve been thinking about lately, it’s nice to know it’s not just me that feels this to my deepest soul.
3rd paragraph “spirituality starved” is the diagnosis for the world. Self has replaced the Christian world view.
Yes—and now we're medicating the symptoms of a deeper emptiness. Strip away meaning, and all that’s left is distraction.
This is the most brilliant, insightful, and moving essay I’ve read in a very long time. Bravo.
Really appreciate that—means a lot. Glad it resonated with you.
It resonated like being struck with a tuning fork.

Agreed. It's time for a Revolution; to save our country, our lifestyle, and our souls.
