UN Report Calls for Ban on Sex Changes for Children, Declares Transgenderism a Threat to Women

"Recently, there has been a concerted international push to delink the definition of men and women from their biological sex and erase the legal category of "women." Such efforts have undermined the practical achievement of equality between men and women. Women are therefore being denied their rightful recognition as a distinct category in law and society. It is a form of "coercive inclusion" that relies on the expectation that women will be kind enough to sacrifice their own recognition and protection for the sake of others..." -Reem Alsalem of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights

The report, titled "Sex-based violence against women and girls: new frontiers and emerging issues: Report of the Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls," was compiled by Reem Alsalem of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), and warns that transgender ideology has become a threat to women.

Alsalem's report is stunning considering that it comes from a United Nations office. For example, she warns that transgender ideology is resulting in the "erasure" of women:

Recently, there has been a concerted international push to delink the definition of men and women from their biological sex and erase the legal category of "women." Such efforts have undermined the practical achievement of equality between men and women. Women are therefore being denied their rightful recognition as a distinct category in law and society. It is a form of "coercive inclusion" that relies on the expectation that women will be kind enough to sacrifice their own recognition and protection for the sake of others.

That, in so many words, is precisely what those of us critical of transgender ideology have been saying for years. Indeed, she goes on to condemn the purging of female-specific terms from language, pinpointing the terminology I have been writing about in this space for a decade:

The suppression of women in language and law occurs in several forms: by replacing sex-specific language with neutral language; by reinterpreting sex-specific language to refer to gender identity rather than sex; and by referring to females in dehumanizing, biologically reductive terms such as "birthing persons," "menstruaters/bleeders" or "vagina havers" with "front holes." Such a framing is accompanied by describing the distinction between male and female itself as "biological essentialism" and "an intrinsic expression of patriarchal structures," rather than the material reality onto which oppressive gender norms and stereotypes are imposed.

Consider: That paragraph was not written by a conservative commentator or gender-critical feminist. It was penned by the head of a United Nations office. In fact, Alsalem also uses phrases that indicate an unwillingness to recognize "transgender identities" themselves as valid; she refers, at one point, to the "effort to provide recognition for males who identify as women or girls," deliberately avoiding the approved ideological language of "transgender women" or "transgender girls." Several pages later, after condemning governments for not collecting sex-specific data, she also takes a shot at the pornography industry, condemning the "system of pornography, which presents violent and dehumanizing depictions of women."

Alsalem's report reads like an outright rejection of the transgender agenda. She states that gender dysphoria is "socially contagious." She praises the UK Supreme Court's ruling that the legal definition of woman refers to biological sex," stating that it "protects women and girls under a distinct category." She even refers, at one point, to the "harmful consequences of social and medical transitioning of children" in a truly bombshell section that rejects the concept of "gender-affirming care" almost entirely, which I will quote in full:

There is also a significant co-occurrence of what is known as gender dysphoria or incongruence and autism spectrum disorder diagnoses. Research suggests that the odds of being diagnosed with gender or bodily dysphoria are three times higher for children and adolescents with an autism spectrum diagnosis compared with those without, with girls particularly affected...
