Richard Dawkins: ‘Trans women are women’ slogan is scientifically false

The slogan ‘trans women are women’ is scientifically false and harms the rights of women, Richard Dawkins has said in a new book warning that scientific truth must prevail over “personal feelings”. The Telegraph has more.

    In a new book, the evolutionary biologist warns that scientific truth must prevail over “personal feelings” and argues that academic institutions must defend facts above emotion.

    In The War on Science, Dawkins joins several scientists and philosophers contending that academic freedom and truth in universities was being stifled by diversity, equity and inclusion policies that promoted falsehoods under the banner of social justice.

    “I draw the line at the belligerent slogan ‘trans women are women’ because it is scientifically false,” he said. “When taken literally, it can infringe the rights of other people, especially women.

    “It logically entails the right to enter women’s sporting events, women’s changing rooms, women’s prisons and so on.

    “So powerful has this postmodern counter-factualism become, that newspapers refer to ‘her penis’ as a matter of unremarked routine.”

    Dawkins told the Telegraph that the trans-activist community had become “astonishingly vicious”, hounding people out of their jobs and calling for women who disagreed with them to be decapitated and physically assaulted.

If you have XY chromosomes you are a male regardless of any amount of surgery you might choose to endure.

It's an interesting split from his humanist group...they kicked him out after being one of their preeminent members.  It'll be fascinating to see which way he goes now.  It was pretty shocking to J.K. Rowling when she got shot up by her former friends on the left.

No they are not. They are men pretending to be women.

And transgenders are the only ones who get to pretend. Pedophiles can't pretend to be 13, you can't pretend to be a different ethnic group, you can't pretend to be a Sovereign Citizen, and you certainly can't pretend to be an alien ambassador with diplomatic immunity.

Of course you can't have that, because at some point one human can identify as superior to another, and we're right back to slavery, though it could be argued that transgenders are well on the way to putting us there.

What gets me is all the shrieking about being "genocided" from a group of people who, if their 'transition' is complete, have removed themselves from the reproducing gene pool.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
