The baffling, contradictory demands of being female in the party of Donald Trump.
Can you provide a definition for the word woman?ā
Tennessee senator Marsha Blackburn lobbed this query at Ketanji Brown Jackson during her 2022 Supreme Court confirmation hearings. Blackburn was doing her bit for her partyās effort to enforce transphobic gender conformity, positioning herself as a defender of womanhood as something fixed and narrow. When Jackson declined to provide Blackburn with a definition, noting that she was not a biologist, the senator took the opportunity to dial it up a notch. āThe fact that you canāt give me a straight answer about something as fundamental as what a woman is underscores the dangers of the kind of progressive education that we are hearing about,ā Blackburn said with lip-smacking satisfaction.
Two years later, Republicans remain cruelly closed to the realities of gender fluidity and trans existence. But how the party understands ā and represents ā womanhood more broadly? Well ⦠thatās getting weird. As we cruise toward November with two ancient white men on the presidential ticket and the rights of millions of people who are not white men in the balance, the public performance of Republican womanhood has become fractured, frenzied, and far less coherent than ever.
āA true conservative woman,ā Valentina Gomez, one of several Republican candidates vying to be Missouriās next secretary of state, told me in an email this spring, āspeaks the truth, works hard, loves and knows how to use guns of multiple calibers, cares for the wellbeing of children and her family, doesnāt sleep with multiple men and most important, does not murder babies.ā

The fact that men think women lie all the time about rape attempts is a sign in and of itself that men donāt take the subject of rape seriously.
The vast majority of women donāt lie about being raped because they view it not only as a real threat to their lives and the lives of other human beings, but as a serious issue that needs to be handled with the sincerity/severity it deserves.
The way men talk, joke, and throw the word around in conversation so carelessly just shows how little they really care about the subject at large and how many men even view rape as a ānon-issueā or an exaggeration on the part of rape survivors when the topic of its continued re-occurrence is brought up.
