(ominous music) - Death! Death, death, death, death! It's the only thing everyone fears, and the only thing that gets me off. Hello, my devilish
darlings, I am Lenora LaVey, your hostess of horror, your rare and radiant maiden of mayhem. Tonight's program is about
the death of meaning itself. The story is rather simple really, the he's become she's,
and the she's become he's, and those and the middle are them and xem. And then, my dreadful dears, the Western world shall surely
succumb to renewable energy, affordable healthcare, and
video games for lesbians. (maniacal laughter) But there's one man who stands in the way, the villain of tonight's thriller. A meddling little cipher of a man. A man who prefers light to
darkness, reason to madness, order to chaos. (scoffs) Can you imagine? His name is Ben Shapiro,
and his catchphrase "Facts don't care about your feelings." Ugh! Can our heroine put a stop to this? Well, I'm just the executioner. You, my vile viewers, must be the judge. (ominous organ music) - Hi, girls. It's me, Ms. Points. Mademoiselle Points. Words, words, words. What do they even fucking mean? Well I don't know and I don't care, but we have to talk about it anyway because of a boy named Ben Shapiro. So who is Ben Shapiro? Well, he's a popular conservative pundit, the editor of The Daily Wire, and the auteur behind such
Criterion Collection classics as "Ben Shapiro Destroys Yale Snowflakes," "Ben Shapiro Destroys Every
College Snowflake Part Seven," "Ben Shapiro Crushes Anti-Free
Speech College Snowflake," and "Ben Shapiro Destroy Caitlyn Jenner." Ben's especially notorious
for his provocative, controversial, politically incorrect, snowflake-smashing refusal to call transgender
people by their pronouns. - I'm willing to call Caitlyn
Jenner "Caitlyn Jenner." I'm not willing to call
Caitlyn Jenner a "she." - Surprising, you might think, for a person so insistent on
the value of civil discussion. - And let's be civil, right? That's the tone of the day. - I'm a fan. - But Ben seems to abandon civility in his discussions of trans people, preferring to fall back
on his edgier mantra... - Facts don't care about your feelings. And you know, on this one point, I actually agree with Ben. It's true. Facts don't care about my feelings. I dislike this trend toward regarding as a conclusive argument the proposition, "This makes me feel invalidated." Because sometimes things that
make you feel bad are true. It makes me feel bad that I used to be a sexy, sexy boy with rippling abs, but too fucking bad for
me, because there I am, indelibly exhibited on YouTube for everyone to gawk at forever. Mmm, I was a yum yum tho. Build me a time machine doc. - We call this autoandrophilia, nurse. - What can I say, I like younger men. I'm a cougar in tiger's clothing. (hisses) So look, I want to be
treated like an adult. I don't want to be indulged. If I'm delusional, I
want to be disillusioned. I don't want people lying to me just to protect whatever
deranged fantasy stories I need to tell myself to
make it through the night. VO: It's probably just dry down there. They're just ingrown hairs. I'm sure plenty of healthy
people have blood in their urine. - I don't want my gender to be tolerated in the way that liberal
Christians tolerate other of course false
and heathen religions. I am an evangelical transsexual. I don't want toleration,
dammit, I want converts. - Excuse me sir, do you have a moment to
talk about my womanhood? Sure, go ahead. Touch it. - So look, Shapiro. Benny. Baby. I invite you to disenchant
all my fairy tales, to melt away every
crystal of my snowflakery and henceforth dispense
only the most scalding tea. Alright, big boy? Let's have it. - I'm willing to call Caitlyn
Jenner "Caitlyn Jenner," I'm not willing to call
Caitlyn Jenner a "she." Because you can't change your
sex, you can change your name. Caitlyn Jenner is a man, a biological man. And if he were born with high doses of estrogen in his bloodstream, he would also not be a woman. You're determined by your chromosomes. So the argument is that
what it means to be a "she" is to have a normal female karyotype, that is, XX sex chromosomes. And if you don't have that karyotype, then you're not a "she," and to call you she would
be tantamount to a lie. - I was wondering what you
see the detriment of society like why we can't let a
transgender like woman be called "she" or something? - Because it is a lie. - So since you think calling
a trans woman "she" is a lie, and you think that what
it means to be "a she" is to have a normal female karyotype, then you must think that when
we call a trans women "she" we are saying that she has
a normal female karyotype. But hold on, I'm a transgender woman, and I've never claimed to have
a normal female karyotype, and yet my friends, lovers,
and most strangers call me "she, "her, miss, ma'am, girlfriend, ladies. "Good girl, good girl, just like that, "don't stop, don't stop." Are all of us deluded about my biology? No. It is not I who misunderstands
biology, Ben Shapiro, it is you who misunderstands language. You have deceptively framed the debate as a debate about
biology, which it is not. We all agree on the biology. The actual subject of debate
is the proper use of words such as "he", "she", "man" and "woman". But how do we decide on the
correct way to use a word? Well, there are two kinds
of arguments we could make, descriptive or prescriptive. If we take the descriptive approach then what we must do is
act like anthropologists and study the way a
word, for instance "she," is used by a linguistic community. And whatever the social
convention is is what's correct. But if we take the prescriptive approach, then we must make an argument about the way the word "she" SHOULD be used, meaning we either defer to an authority such as the dictionary, or my ruler on you wrist you naughty boy, or we must have some goal
that we want to accomplish by approving some uses of the
word, and prohibiting others. Now if we take the descriptive approach, you lose, Ben Shapiro, because
most people call me she, and that's all there is to it. What's more, your usage of "a she" and "a he" is ungrammatical. You don't put an article before a pronoun, that's not how pronouns
work you silly dumdum. Also, human sex chromosomes
were discovered in 1905, while the English pronouns "he" and "she" originate in the Proto-Germanic language spoken during the pre-Roman
Iron Age of Northern Europe beginning around 500 BCE. Therefore, by insisting that the singular third-person pronouns of the English language refer
specifically to karyotype, it is you and not I who is breaking from linguistic
tradition, Ben Shapiro. However, as a trans woman, it's not generally in my
interest to defer to traditions. So, let's try out a prescriptive approach. Without simply appealing to
the way a word is already used, how do we decide how
a word should be used? Language is by nature ambiguous, and the way we attempt disambiguate it is often motivated by political goals. Ben Shapiro thinks we should
not call trans women "she" because his political goal is to reinforce rigid
conservative gender roles. Whereas, I think we should
call trans women she because my political goal
is to live in a society where I can achieve the same level of sadness and dysfunction
as everyone else. It's analogous to the debate about same-sex marriage from a decade ago. Opponents argued that the dictionary and legal definition of marriage was union between a man and a woman, and the definition
shouldn't be changed because it's the definition, and... "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO EXPLAIN TO MY CHILD?" And on the other hand, gay people argued that the
definition should be changed because they wanted to achieve the same level of sadness and
dysfunction as everyone else. And they succeeded. Because as it turns out, you can in fact change
the definitions of words. The dictionary is simply a
usage guide, it's not the Bible. And for that matter, you
can even change the Bible. I mean have you read the
Contemporary English Version? The prose is atrocious, appalling. I won't stand for this. But unlike the debate about gay marriage, the question about trans womanhood is more than just a
political and legal dispute. It seems to me that whatever church, state, and Merriam-Webster decide, trans women are already women
and will continue to be women. And to see why, I want to elaborate on an
argument posed to Ben Shapiro by my sometime rival Blaire White. Yes, even though she's one of
the YouTubers whomst is bad. The debate begins with Ben Shapiro asserting his usual position that pronouns are used to designate so-called biological men
and biological women. Blaire responds by observing that Ben's way of using pronouns is in her case completely impractical. - Well, if you and I were
to go to a business dinner or any kind of dinner and you were meeting me at a restaurant and I was there first and
I was in an orange shirt. And you had to tell the host, "I'm here to meet my friend
Blaire," and they said, "Okay," and you had to describe me
to take you to the table, you wouldn't say, "The
man in the orange shirt," you would say, "Blaire" and you
would say, "Her over there." - Ben then responds saying. - I think there's some
truth to that, meaning that, I think that there is a
utility to the use of pronouns but that's not quite the
same as suggesting that a transgender woman is a
she in the objective sense. - And Blaire responds to that with what I think is a very good analogy. - For instance, if someone
were to adopt children, there's no biological
basis for calling them that kids parents because they're not. Like they're just literally not, there's no link at all biologically. But there is a social reason to do it and there's a legal reason to do it. - Let's expand on that analogy. Suppose you're an adoptive parent, and you're arguing with someone
who says your adopted child isn't really your child and
you aren't really a parent. As evidence, they point to the dictionary definition of parent, "one that begets or brings forth offspring." "You did not beget or bring
forth offspring," they argue, "therefore, you are not a parent. "Facts don't care about your feelings. "No matter how much you love
and care for this child, "you'll never be anything
but a glorified kidnapper." I think it's clear, that the
person who makes this argument is being uncivil, yes, being provocative, controversial, politically incorrect. But they're not just impolite. They're also wrong. Because an adoptive parent
is, socially and functionally, just as real a parent
as a biological parent. And to say otherwise is
not just rude, it's false. So, what do you have to
say to that Ben Shapiro? - I would say that we actually do have different descriptions
for adoptive parents than biological parents. You'll say in shorthand
that they're parents because they're all
different types of parents. But we do say adoptive parents. - Right. Adoptive parents. An entirely valid type of parent. To call them parents is not a lie. - And then the question becomes, okay, exactly is the context that you were suggesting matters. In what context are we
talking about the parents? Are we talking about a PTA meeting. Okay, this person is the legal guardian and therefore the parent. Because parenting has two aspects, there's the biological parentage and then there's the
actual role of parenting. - So yes, there are some contexts where we do need to distinguish between biological and adoptive parents. For instance, if a doctor
is assessing a child's risk of some hereditary disease, they need to know if the parents
are adoptive or biological. But at the PTA meeting and
in most other contexts, it doesn't matter in the slightest. - In the dinner conversation the same thing sort of holds true. Meaning, there is the
biological role of woman, which you are not and then there is the you look like a woman, which is I'm gonna describe
you as a woman to the waiter when he comes to direct me to the table. - Just when Ben seems on the
cusp of having a breakthrough, he and Blaire pause their argument to congratulate themselves on
how civil their discussion is. - From what I've seen a lot of your interactions
with trans people they always end up kind of ugly. You know what I mean? There was, I think the
person's name was Zoey Tur There was that threat
of physical violence. - What are you genetics, sir? - You cut that out now or
you'll go home in an ambulance. - And what's hilarious
about this, Blaire is, literally the exact same thing that I'm saying to you right now is exactly what I said
to Zoey Tur on the air. - But that's not exactly true, is it, Ben? Zoey threatened you
after you called her sir. And you didn't call Blaire sir, did you? Why did you call Zoey "sir"? What kind of reaction
were you hoping to elicit, O distinguished destroyer of snowflakes? I suppose you were just
sticking to the facts. I suppose "sir" is a
strictly biological term. Queen Guinevere said in days of old, "I knight thee Lancelot, thou
that art karyotypically male." - And you're exactly right. When people start yelling at
each other or tweeting out "FU", that's not a great way to change my mind, it turns out that's not
particularly convincing. - So what is a great way to
change your mind, Ben Shapiro? Did Blaire budge you an
inch with her rationality, her even-temper, her
civility, her aesthetic? It doesn't seem like she did. At the end of this debate you regurgitate your
original position undigested. - You know, I'm the editor of a pretty major site and my basic rule is that when were discussing people who are trans we immediately say in the
first paragraph "trans woman" and then refer to them by
their biological pronoun because biology is the
nature of the pronoun. - "Biology is the nature of the pronouns?" Didn't Blaire just demonstrate to you that in most contexts
that's not true for her? Remember the analogy of adoptive parents. There are some contexts
where it makes sense to distinguish between adoptive parents and biological parents. Likewise, there are some
scientific and medical contexts where it makes sense to distinguish between transgender and cisgender, or as you say "biological" women, for instance when
discussing who needs access to certain reproductive healthcare you think should be illegal. But does this apply to pronouns? That is, are pronouns technical biological terms denoting karyotypes, or are they part of the
everyday language we use to describe each other socially? The answer is obvious. There are no geneticists
studying pronouns. In fact, there's not a
single biology textbook with a chapter on the difference
between "a he" and "a she." There is no such thing
as "biological pronouns." This is a phrase invented
in the last decade to describe the misgendering
of trans people. So, as a trans woman, I'm reintegrating myself
into society as a woman. She pronouns are therefore
most appropriate for me regardless of my anatomy, which is none of your
business, Ben Shapiro, fascinating though it is. And just as it is incorrect
to tell an adoptive mother that her son is not her child, to call me "he" is not
just rude or insensitive. It is, in effect, false. But it is also rude and insensitive, so even if you don't agree
with me, you could still not. What's the harm, right? - I teach my almost 4-year-old girl that she can become a boy, then I think that is
not only lying to her, I think it's confusing her and I think it's damaging to her psyche. - Oh yes, the classic argument, "HOW DO I EXPLAIN TO MY CHILD?" Kill your shitty child for all I care, that's simply not my problem. I regret every night I
spent with you Ben Shapiro. I'm in a new relationship
now with a lesbian. You and I are through! I'm getting an abortion
and you can't stop me! - It's disgusting what they
allow on TV these days. I won't allow my children to watch movies unless there's at least a
bloodbath, or maybe an orgy. But hey, I don't choose this
schlock, I just present it. The second program of tonight's science fiction double feature
is about a cult of chaos hellbent on destroying
Western civilization. I sure hope there's more
sex and violence this time. - Hi, boys. It's Points again, same queen, new look. Try to keep up. In my previous video, "Nasty
T-babe Likes It Rough, I made an argument about why it's correct to call trans women "she," but I'd be bullshitting
you if I only discussed fully integrated binary trans people. Everyone basically calls them
by their pronouns already. Dingbats like Ben Shapiro
have to exert conscious effort to continue the charade
of misgendering them. - The transgender woman from
Orange Is the New Black. - [Joe] I never watched that show. - I've never watched that show either, but she's on a cover of Time magazine. - [Joe] Oh. - Or he's on the cover of Time magazine. [airhorns "Turn Down For What"] - I limited my argument to trans women who look the way society
expects a woman to look, because cis people have an
easier time making sense of that. But the reality is that in a lot of cases it's a little more complicated. Now, as far as early
transition trans people go, I am fairly integrated. Society basically gets that I'm a woman. Without me having to explain my gender, strangers usually default
to "she", "her", "miss", "ma'am", "Hey, haven't I seen your
videos on TgirlLove.com?" But the truth is, I don't pass perfectly. I got called "sir" last week
by the cashier at H&M. Not that I usually deign to shop at H&M but needless to say, it
was a desperate emergency, and by emergency, I mean I met a cute
busboy at P.F. Chang's. And what happened next stays
between me and the Lord, but suffice to say that my blouse was irrevocably drenched in... Okay, I embellished the story a little. He wasn't cute. So between being six foot one, the horrific transsexual squawking I try to pass off as my voice, and my tragic inability to conduct myself in a manner befitting a
lady of good breeding, your girl remains, despite my
desperate painstaking efforts, somewhat clockable. You look great, hon. In that debate between Ben and Blaire, Blaire says that pronoun usage boils down to what you look like. - But it really does kind of boil down to what you look like. - And it's true that most strangers will choose a pronoun for you largely based on your appearance. So appearance definitely matters, but in my opinion passing, in the sense of looking like a cis woman, isn't really the most important thing. What matters more to me is
the kind of vibe you give off, the way you speak, the gestures,
the conversational dynamic. That kind of stuff to me is what makes a person viscerally seem like a man or a woman. So my goal isn't necessarily
to serve unclockable fish so much as to embody a certain kind of diaphanous archetypal femininity, in layman's terms, girl dick energy. Also I am gonna have a lot of
plastic surgery, thank God. Last month I released a video called "Sexy Furry Pounded by Skinny TBabe," and a lot of trans people got mad at me because they thought I was saying that performing your gender is
the only thing that matters, and that how you identify
counts for nothing. But that's not what I think. I do prefer to argue that
trans women are women because we live the lives of women, because I think that's a much
more compelling argument than, "I'm a woman because I
psychologically identify as a woman," which in my experience doesn't
really persuade anyone, it's just too easy to poke holes in it. But identity definitely does matter, especially when it comes to
pronouns, and I'll explain why. Now first, I should acknowledge
that a lot of cis people are very sensitive about anyone telling them what pronouns to use. So I'm gonna try to be
respectful of your feelings, and what a difficult and personal issue this must be for you. After all, we live in a
repressive political era, despite the best efforts of hero professor Jordan B. Peterson. But alas, he was too late,
now we have has Bill C-16 which compels speech and
sends people to jail for... Oh, it's been more than a
year since Bill C-16 passed? Let's check in on how many people have gone to jail for pronoun misuse. (dramatic instrumental music) Oh. Guess that, uh, guess
that was a false alarm, huh. Goddammit. Look, I'm not gonna tell you
what pronouns you have to use. I'm just going to tell
you how I use pronouns and my reasoning behind it, and you are welcome to use
your free speech to choose how much of an obstinate
hobgoblin you wanna be. Okay? So, back to identity. If I were a cashier at the
Emporium of Ethereal Trinkets and a customer were to
walk in looking like this, I might ordinarily default
to female pronouns. But that would be wrong, since I happen to know this
person is not only a man, he is the man. YouTube's most regal makeup artist, his Lordship John Maclean,
and he uses he/him pronouns. Likewise, if I were
approached by this person, I'd fall in love and then
default to female pronouns, and this time I'd be correct, but not because she's a
cis woman or a trans woman, but because she's genderfluid
drag queen Courtney Act, who has the fucking audacity to be a more beautiful woman than I am, and who so far as I know uses
male pronouns in boy mode and female pronouns in girl
mode, as do most queens. A lot of the complexities of gender, language, identity, and expression get played out in the world of drag. Some queens, like RuPaul,
just identify as cis men who live as men and perform as women. Others, like Courtney,
Sasha Velour, Jinkx Monsoon, Shea Coulee and Violet Chachki
identify as non-binary. Others still are bio queens, cis women who perform as drag queens, like Lucy Garland or Creme Fatale. And then there are trans
women who are also drag queens like Peppermint, Imp Queen,
or for that matter, me. I mean, look at me. You think I dress like this
when I go to 7-Eleven at 2AM? Because I do. Look what I've become, a bisexual transsexual drag queen. Look, I didn't intend to become
this much of a snowflake, I, just through pure coincidence happen to be the most interesting and unique person who ever lived, I'm so sorry, I can't help it. So let's recap, there are gender non-conforming men who present very femme
but use male pronouns, there are cis men who use female pronouns whenever they present female, there are genderfluid people
who use different pronouns depending on their current presentation, there are pre-transition trans people who identify as a gender other than the one they
present and live as and prefer other pronouns. So you really can't just rely
on the way a person looks, because there's a lot of situations where the way they look doesn't
tell you the whole story. So as you can see, identity
is definitely important, but it's also not the
only thing that matters. If psychological identity were
the only thing that mattered then there would be no need
for a trans person to come out or do anything to transition, including requesting different pronouns, because pronouns belong to
the social world of language, not to individual psychology. This is an idea I tried to
explore in my sexy furry video. You can identify however you like, but gender is also social,
structural and interpersonal. So if for example you're a trans woman still living as a man,
then you are fully trans, your identity is fully valid, but until you begin living as a woman your womanhood remains
kind of hypothetical. And when I say living as a woman, I don't mean passing. There's too much emphasis
on physical appearance and not enough on social relationships. You know, you don't become a woman the first time you put on a dress, you become a woman the first time an older female relative turns to you at a restaurant and says, "Maybe you should order
the salad, sweetie." My point is not to
invalidate anyone's identity. As far as I'm concerned if a trans person hasn't transitioned yet they are fully trans. I'm trying to be realistic about the fact that a lot of a people's
gendered experience isn't entirely a product
of how they identify. Put it this way, I will always use female
pronouns for a trans woman, but my thought process behind
it isn't always the same. Many trans women just
seem like to women to me, in literally the same way that
cis women seem like women, and I use female pronouns
for them effortlessly just as I was trained to do from birth. This I think is the goal for
most binary trans people. We want not necessarily to pass perfectly, but at least to seem like our genders to the people around us. As Laura Jane Grace put it, "You want them to see you like
they see every other girl." I want people calling me
she not out of politeness or respect for my
identity as a trans woman but just because I seem
like a woman to them. Because the reality is
not all trans women seem like women to me in that visceral way, and I live with this
constant crushing anxiety that I don't seem like
a woman to other people. I'm terrified of looking
like third-rate drag queen, and I cope with that fear by looking like a second-rate drag queen. But look, even if a person is giving my eyes and
ears zero percent woman, if she tells me she's a trans woman, I'm gonna use female pronouns, no matter what she looks like. Not just to be polite, but also because I want to recognize the reality of her
psychological experience. And especially because I want to help her resocialize and reintegrate into the world as her true gender. And of course, cis people, you have legally the freedom
to refuse to do that, but if you refuse you
are being a shitgibbon. And I would prefer that
you not be a shitgibbon. Now, we need to address the genderqueer elephant in the room. An increasing number of people identify not as male or female, but as non-binary, an umbrella term encompassing a bunch of more specific
labels such as genderqueer, genderfluid, agender,
greygender, and so on. Many of these people use
a non-binary pronoun, in English, usually "they." Now if your first impulse is to argue that singular they is
ungrammatical nonsense, consider that having gendered singular third-person pronouns at all is a particular feature
of the English language that's by no means shared
by all other languages, including Turkish, Korean and Finnish, which don't have them at all. Language is just a bunch of fucking sounds coming out of your mouth
that humans make up to suit our purposes. If you're new to using singular "they," it's a little confusing at first, but with some practice
it gets pretty easy. V.O: They poured milk on me. I poured milk on them. They did anoint themself in
their milk and it was good, thus saith the Lord. - So the polite thing to do here is easy. If someone asks you to call
them "they," you call them "they." But, if you're like me, you
don't want to just do a thing because you dogmatically believe
it's the woke thing to do. You want to understand
why you're doing it. I don't just want to
tolerate non-binary people. I want to be a convert, I want to believe about them what they believe about themselves, so long as those beliefs are reasonable. So what do all these words mean? What are these people talking about? Remember earlier we
distinguished gender expression from gender identity. John Maclean is feminine in expression but a man in identity. Whereas I am a woman in identity and in expression I am a mess. Let us meditate upon
one of lesbian culture's great contributions to humanity,
art, science, spirituality, sexuality, metaphysics, the futch scale. The futch scale is a
diagram that looks like this and quantifies from 1 to 10,
or high femme to stone butch, the gender expression of a given domain, such as Mulan looks or
Steven Universe characters. It can also be used more
abstractly for weapons, fish Pokemon or wind instruments. Maybe what non-binary
people are trying to do with words like genderqueer,
agender, greygender, and so on, is to give to identity the
same kind of specificity the futch scale gives to expression. But my input on this isn't
really worth that much, because I'm not non-binary. And to tell you the truth, I kind of feel for cis people here, because all this talk
about gender identity, a lot of the time I don't
really get it either. I look inside myself and ask, "Do I feel like a man or a woman?" And after all these
years the answer is still that I feel like shit. And that's how I experience gender, I live, I exist as a woman, which is the only way I can achieve the same level of sadness and
dysfunction as everyone else. And I identify as trash. I guess there are certain moments that makes me feel like a natural woman, oh, listening to Aretha Franklin, the pain and ecstasy of penetration, waiting in a long-ass
line for the restroom, a big strong arm around my waist, being asked if I have any tampons, having tampons in case someone asks, a dude explaining Philosophy
101 to me and me going, "Oh, really? Wow!" But you know, these experiences mean different things to different people, so all I can really tell you is that I prefer to express myself with diaphanous feminine gestures, that taking female hormones and having feminizing medical procedures makes me feel more at home in my body, and that I like when other
people treat me as a woman, socially, spiritually, sexually. So that's the jargon-free explanation of my gender as I see it. Am I really, truly a woman, ontologically, neurologically, metaphysically? Well, honestly I don't even
know what that would mean. But I do know that the
life I live as a woman is the only life I
have, and that, I think, is legitimate enough. So, I know what living
as a woman means to me, but what does it mean to
live a non-binary life? Well, just like what it
means to be a man or a woman, that's something that's going to vary between individuals and cultures. Some cultures have ancient
third-gender traditions, such as the hijra of South Asia, a legally recognized gender in India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh, or the various two-spirit traditions of indigenous North American tribes. Non-indigenous American culture doesn't have a third-gender tradition, but we do have individual
non-binary people, some of whom are making content that has taught me a lot
about non-binary experience, non-binary bodies and non-binary life. We have a lot in common, binary
and non-binary trans people. Even as a binary trans person,
I used to live as one gender and now I live as another gender. That in itself is a
pretty serious challenge to the stability of the binary. But many of the people who
call themselves non-binary seem to be fighting for
something more radical than what I'm fighting for,
at least in my personal life. I'm just trying to assimilate into a pre-existing female gender role. As you can see by the
normal way I'm dressed. The traditional female garb of my culture. No. Whereas, non-binary people
are trying to cast off these roles entirely, they're effectively trying to create the society that includes them. And sometimes that puts
me at cross purposes with some non-binary
people, who, for example, promote the practice of always asking for someone's pronouns. Whereas, I love it when
people assume my gender, provided they assume it correctly, otherwise I will throw you in imaginary Canadian pronoun jail. But what we all agree on is that many trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming people find it easier to navigate
the world using pronouns other than the ones that Ben
Shapiro wants you to use. So if you want me to call you
"they" I'm gonna call you "they." And though I cannot and
will not force you, viewer, to do or say anything, I do hope you use your
free will to freely choose to use your freedom of speech
to choose to do the same. Freely. - Well, at least there was a
hideous monster this time. (whispering) I'm talking about the female lead. Now the fun really
begins, the show's over. I'm gonna go take my tits
out at a funeral parlor. So goodbye my satanic
subscribers and till next week, go to hell! (upbeat electronic music) "Hand in Hand" by Zoë Blade (static)
Christ. As someone that has been watching her since she first started, and just happened to stumble on her videos, who watched her transition, it has been absolutely surreal to also watch her catapult into the stratosphere of youtube.
Her new style that came along with her transition feels really symbolic of her finding herself. That she wasn't living as who she really was held her back, and once she embraced it, she became this... Sorry I'm gushing, but it's just such a beautiful, inspiring story.
