CRIMSON CRIED! Sororities at the University of Alabama Reject Man, Make Him Sad

www.thedistancemag.com
Why do men identify as women and then exult in performing the most pornographic and regressive stereotypes of women? Is it because they are men?

Poor Grant Sikes! (See photo.) All he wanted to do was be one of the girls. You know, lounge around half-naked, skip classes, pillow fight maybe. For some reason, however, not a single one of the sororities on campus wanted to let a cosplay porn star join their sexytime fun-havings. Such hate! Via College Fix:

Unfortunately this chapter is closed. This recruitment journey is over for me. Being dropped from my last house this morning during primary recruitment at the University of Alabama doesn’t come as a surprise considering out of the almost 20 chapters I was dropped by every single one except 2 before day 1: Gamma Phi Beta and Kappa Alpha Theta.

I’m hopeful for a future where everyone is welcomed for just being themselves —everywhere.

At least two sororities actually considered him. No one called out his violation. At his own admission, women met him, thought about it, and said no. They are allowed to say no. Men who cannot take “no” for an answer are exactly why women have spaces for themselves.


IT DID NOT HAVE TO BE THIS WAY: The gender identity movement is combative, punitive, and secretive by choice. They chose totalizing “culture war” and made demands instead of asking for reasonable accommodations because the things they want are not reasonable or easy to accommodate. Eliza Mondegreen:

It wasn’t necessary to put the trans movement on a collision course with reality, fairness, common sense, medical ethics, toleration for difference, freedom of speech and conscience, and the basic recognition that sex matters to achieve the movement’s stated goals. Rather, it’s the trans lobby’s unstated goals that put us on this dark path.

THIS IS COMPLETELY HEALTHY: As regular readers know, an angry crowd of gender zealots showed up to heckle and assault women holding a press conference in Port Townsend, Washington to support Julie Jaman, who was banned from the city pool after objecting to a man in the shower area. A conservative vlogger was on the scene to record some of the insanity, such as a man dragging his ass on the ground like a dog with worms:

Stay tuned, there will be lots more video coming out.


WHY DOES THIS RHETORIC SOUND FAMILIAR: Informed that 80 year-old Julie Jaman had been assaulted, Port Townsend mayor David Faber dismissed concerns about freedom of speech. "In this attack, we do not consider anyone other than Julie Jaman and her supporters worthy of blame and even condemnation,” he said.

Oh, wait, sorry, that was an Iranian foreign ministry spokesman talking about Salman Rushdie. My abject and humble apologies for getting the two fundamentalist literalist blasphemy codes confused for a moment, there.

ACTUALLY, THE MAYOR OF PORT TOWNSEND IS A PERV: Mayor Faber is proudly pervy. I’m told that he is also an Evergreen College graduate, so struggle sessions are part of his training in cultural revolution. Watch this space.

STOP PUNISHING INSTINCTS: Stephanie Winn talks to a lot of interesting people. This week, she had a wide-ranging discussion with Gurwinder Bhogal about psychology and cognition. In this clip from a few weeks ago, Amy Sousa, one of the organizers of Monday’s press conference in Port Townsend, speaks to the harms of telling children to ignore the evidence of their eyes and ears. It isn’t “kindness,” it’s abuse.

If you examine an ideology & what it seeks to accomplish or persuade you of, you can sometimes find an underlying value that's harmful, such as dissociation, disembodiment, comparison, envy, or perfectionism. @KnownHeretic shared her thoughts on this in episode 9.

POLITICAL REALIGNMENTS: Candace Mercer of Olympia, Washington was at the Port Townsend event. Gender gibberish is just one of the reasons she has become politically heterodox after a lifetime on “the left.” Rather than argue with her, Democrats should maybe consider the consequences of ignoring the shearing effects of wokeness on their support from demographics that they count on, such as women and Latinos. Maybe calling them “bleeders” and “Latinx” against their objections is a bad idea?

The more I hung with conservatives, the more guilt and weakness melted away and I began to once again appreciate beauty and, above all, the push for excellence. This is ennobling and nourishing. My ambition has been reignited and I see a positive future. I have reconnected with strength as a virtue, an invaluable gift.

WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH KANSAS: Republicans are going to lose some winnable seats this year because their base chose extreme candidates in primary races. To make matters worse, abortion has become a wedge issue against them in surprising places. Public opinion has changed since the heyday of “pro-life” politics, and now that Roe v Wade has been overturned, Republicans find themselves on the wrong side of voters.

Does Kansas Prove the Roe Voter Is Here?
WICHITA — On August 2, Kansans shocked the country, and maybe themselves, by voting overwhelmingly to keep abortion legal in their state. Kansas—which Donald Trump carried by 15 points and hasn’t voted for a Democrat for preside…

You know what, though? I bet those same Kansas voters don’t like men taking women’s sports, that they won’t approve of men in women’s prisons, or banning 80 year-old women from the pool for knowing what a woman is. They will object.


STOP MAKING SENSE: A former self-described Marxist and a critic of Marxism discuss the corrosive, anti-democratic effects of woke orthodoxy. Both are now banned from Twitter for wrongthink. Both are totally okay with that because Twitter is not a healthy place for engagement.

WHY WAS THIS MAN PUT IN CHARGE OF PERIOD DIGNITY? And why does he resemble Dominic West, star of The Wire? Sadly, major media outlets are ignoring my question. There may be answers to the first question, though, and they might even break out into mainstream conversation.
