Welcome to the Council of Trend Podcast, a production of Catholic Answers.

What is a woman?

I want to say it's the question everybody's asking, but that's not actually true.

People who defend transgender ideology not only refuse to ask this question, they refuse

to answer it.

The only person who's publicly and prominently asking this question is Matt Walsh, a commentator

from the Daily Wire.

And so recently, he released a documentary called What is a Woman that exposes how inconsistent,

illogical, unfounded, and frankly evil the transgender movement is.

Now, I'm not talking about people who suffer from gender dysphoria.

That is tragic to feel like you're trapped in the wrong body.

We ought to have compassion and empathy towards anyone who has a bodily identity disorder,

whether they have gender dysphoria and they think that they are a man trapped in a woman's

body, whether they have body identity integrity disorder and think that they are supposed

to be amputated even though they have healthy limbs.

Anybody, you know, this could also apply to anorexia, someone who thinks they're morbidly

overweight when it turns out they're morbidly underweight.

Anyone who has a body identity disorder, we ought to treat with compassion and sensitivity.

No, my anger and I are, frankly, is towards the people that Walsh interviews in this documentary,

the politicians, the social scientists, the gender studies professors, the elites in the

world who cram this down people's throats and demand that others comply and hurt people

and hurt children in the process.
