Subject: Biological men in the Daughters of the American Revolution?
By: Senator Glenn Gruenhagen
Friends and neighbors,
The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) has an incredible history. It is an organization for women who are directly descended from somebody involved in this country’s battle for independence. DAR plays a significant role in promoting patriotism, preserving our rich history, and supporting education – particularly American history and civic education.
Since its establishment in 1890 it has been exclusively for women. Until now. Men who identify as women are now eligible to become members of the Daughters Of The American Revolution.
Here are a few news stories you can read about this:
I fear for our country with the trajectory we are on.
As the Federalist notes,
“It is now normal to house men in women’s prison facilities and sorority houses and to welcome them in female sports leagues solely because they claim to be women. The slippery slope of inclusivity has cast vulnerability on women and the spaces that belong to them. Allowing men to join DAR, so long as they claim they are women, relies on the same precedent that gave men like Fallon Fox license to beat women for sport and men like Demi Minor to impregnate female inmates. Differences between men and women exist, and ignoring them is a disservice to everyone.”
Luckily, some great organizations are fighting the misinformation that biology doesn’t exist.
One of these groups is the Biological Integrity Initiative, which is sponsored by the American College of Pediatricians, whose sole mission is to help “all children to reach their optimal physical and emotional health and well-being.”
