“#Furor over trans in LA spa proves progressives aren’t really feminists after all<\/strong>”

Your first visit to a Korean spa can be a bit . . . jarring, if you don\u2019t know what to expect. I\u2019ll be blunt: Everyone is naked, and you\u2019re required to be, too. You enter the locker room and leave behind everything: phone, wallet, shirt, shoes \u2014 and all of your modesty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What makes it tolerable is that it\u2019s a truly safe space: We\u2019re all real women. Normal women, not models, their looks enhanced by plastic surgery and Photoshop. Women are comfortable walking around naked because we\u2019re surrounded by other women.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But at a spa in California called Wi Spa, that safety has fallen victim to the latest intrusion of gender ideology.<\/p>\n

The spa found itself at the center of a firestorm recently after a biological male who self-identifies as female entered the female-only, nude areas. The hullabaloo, which began because women and girls in the gender-segregated areas saw the transgender customer\u2019s penis and complained, got physical over the weekend, as hard-line gender ideologues violently attacked women and men who objected to the intrusion.<\/p>\n

Transgender activists believe the customer has a right to be in a female-only area on the sole basis of subjective self-identification. Detractors were seen on video fuming, \u201cSo, it\u2019s OK for a man to go into the women\u2019s section, show his penis around the other women, young little girls?\u201d<\/p>\n

As for the spa, there isn\u2019t much it can do one way or the other. Wi Spa defended its policy in a statement to Fox LA, clarifying that California law \u201cprohibits discrimination against transgender and gender-non-conforming people. As a spa located in Los Angeles, Wi Spa complies with California law prohibiting discrimination by a business, including the Civil Code provision set forth above.\u201d<\/p>\n

The battle lines are drawn, with Antifa thugs shouting down anyone on the other side, some of whom seemed to have religious objections. One wore a shirt emblazoned with the phrase \u201cOBEY JESUS\u201d; another urged those gathered to \u201cread the Bible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

One woman protesting the situation was surrounded and physically intimidated by a group of largely male Antifa activists, who chanted in her face, denouncing her as a \u201ctransphobe\u201d after she repeatedly and simply informed them that \u201cI just don\u2019t want to see penises.\u201d It looked like a scene from China\u2019s Cultural Revolution.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Curiously, there were few other self-identified feminists among those protesting the policy allowing biological men into a traditionally female space. Los Angeles, the city where celebrities wore all-black just a few years ago in honor of the #MeToo movement, is suddenly devoid of liberals and progressives willing to take a stand for women and for femininity as an embodied<\/em> reality.<\/p>\n

Women are expected to sit down buck-naked next to a similarly naked biological male \u2014 and shut up about their worries. And if they don\u2019t? They\u2019re physically intimidated into silence by a violent mob of men. And the law rests on the side not of women objectors concerned about safety, but of the biological men.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Men are predatory, and women must always be believed: That was the message of the #MeToo era, and that era is over. Now, the feelings of biological males trump women\u2019s need for emotional and physical safety.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Oh, how far we\u2019ve come. What progress.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Critics of gender ideology saw this coming. The anti-reality theory that gender has no biological basis, that \u201cman\u201d and \u201cwoman\u201d are purely subjective and, therefore, interchangeable categories, was bound to redound to women\u2019s disadvantage. The progress of the women\u2019s movement in the last century, after all, rested on sex differences as an embodied reality. Remove that cornerstone, and America\u2019s suite of rights and protections for women will become simply meaningless.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, progressives, even many who likely find all this abhorrent, are silent. #MeToo, it turned out, was just that: a hashtag, a fashion statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The silent feminist celebrities are more culpable still. They like to preen about having stood up to Harvey Weinstein and other Hollywood creeps. But it turns out many were mere opportunists who feted Weinstein for years until it became untenable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And now the pack has turned against the women of Wi Spa, those who just want to be safe and comfortable in a women\u2019s-only space. Never again should progressives be confused with real feminists. When they tell you who they are, believe them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
