When the word woman is still used to refer to actual women, it’s done in a shame-faced, caveated way. Only men are allowed to be proud of their womanhood. The motive was women celebrating being women. The advertising company that removed this blasphemous utterance of the w-word said it had been ‘ unaware of the motive’ behind it. One of her billboards with those words was taken down on the basis that it was ‘transphobic’. Kellie-Jay Keen is branded a bigot for turning the dictionary definition of a woman – ‘adult human female’ – into a political cry. Yet when women proudly call themselves women, it’s a hate crime. ‘You go, girl’, the cultural elites cry every time a man says he’s a woman. These biological males are literal women, proud women, and you had better all bow down to that.
‘ Trans women are women!’, campaigners gleefully cry. I was thinking recently that the only time you see the word woman used in a proud, unabashed way these days is in reference to men.
