In the interest of efficiency, we ll be responding rapid fire style to TikTok videos attacking me over the past two weeks, we re going to go through a number of rebuttals to them. Today we re responding to Dylan Mulvaney's attack on me.
00:00:23.300I wouldn't really call this an apology.
00:00:25.320And make no mistake, Dylan Mulvaney is our enemy.
00:00:28.140He is an open, visible, active, and passionate advocate for the abuse of children, the war on fundamental truth, the destruction of human society as we know it.
00:00:36.840No, Dylan Mulvaney does not advocate for child abuse.
00:00:39.420And gender-affirming care isn't child abuse anyway.
00:00:41.860Because it's been found that not providing trans health care to youth is actually closer to a form of child abuse.
00:00:46.900Trans kids who are rejected from their family were nearly 60% more likely to commit suicide, 73% more likely to end up in prison, and 68% more likely to suffer from substance abuse.
00:00:56.840One study found that 73% of trans youth experience psychological abuse, and 39% physical abuse.
00:01:03.720So we can clearly prove that trans people are not committing child abuse.
00:01:06.440But for the other two claims, I don't know what to do about that.
00:01:21.640I envy his status, his platform, the fact that people might take him more seriously than they'll take me.
00:01:26.080But what, if anything, does Matt Walsh envy about queer people?
00:01:28.820Does he envy Dylan because she grew to such popularity so fast?
00:01:32.000Is he envious of the fact that she got invited to things like fashion shows, different events, that she's met the president?
00:01:37.040Now, we've already dealt extensively with the claim that gender transition decreases suicide rates.
00:01:41.080To the charge that I am envious because Dylan Mulvaney gets to go to fashion shows, I don't know what to say except that attending a fashion show would be my actual hell.
00:01:50.980I mean, almost as bad as going to a WNBA game.
00:01:53.440And I'm already going to be forced to do that.
00:01:56.840As for meeting the president, yes, I admit that I would be very eager for a chance to sit across from the president with the cameras rolling, but for very different reasons.
00:02:04.420So overall, no, I'm not envious of Dylan Mulvaney.
00:02:08.160In order to elicit envy, he would need to have something that I want or embody some sort of trait that I find admirable.
00:02:16.680Instead, he has none of the things I want out of life and embodies everything that I want to be the opposite of.
00:02:23.240So what we've learned here, as you even admitted to your credit, I suppose, is that you are driven by envy.
00:02:28.180And so you assume that everyone else is too.
00:02:35.360Matt Walsh is a fascist who is promoting violence against trans people.
00:02:39.580His language is inflammatory and factually incorrect.
00:02:42.840The idea that being trans is the result of some kind of social contagion has been disproven so many times.
00:02:48.100The theory of rapid onset gender dysphoria comes from a survey of 256 parents of trans children and not from the trans children themselves.
00:02:56.420The article has been removed and criticized for bad methodology.
00:02:59.120After being peer reviewed, it was found that rapid onset gender dysphoria isn't even a formal medical diagnosis.
00:03:04.680It was found that between 2017 and 2019, the rates of teenagers identifying as trans didn't even increase.
00:03:11.040You say that the survey about rapid onset gender dysphoria was invalid because they interviewed parents rather than the children themselves.
00:03:19.860Well, yes, if a child is sucked into a social contagion, he's not going to report that he's been sucked into a social contagion.
00:03:27.400Are you actually trying to prove that children aren't being indoctrinated by arguing that the indoctrinated children say they haven't been indoctrinated?
00:03:48.700Now, if you don't like the term rapid onset gender dysphoria, you can call it whatever you want.
00:03:53.820If you prefer something less clinical sounding, then just call it, wow, look at all of these kids calling themselves trans all of a sudden syndrome.
00:04:02.120The point is that according to data compiled by the Williams Institute, for example, nearly one in five people who identify as trans are between the ages of 13 and 17.
00:04:11.460Only half a percent of all adults in this country identify as trans, while the number for kids between the ages of 13 and 17 is 1.4%.
00:04:47.320Or perhaps you would say that there have always been this many trans people in the world, but they weren't free to live their truth or whatever.
00:04:52.140Well, the trouble with that theory is that there's absolutely not even one single shred of evidence to support the dramatic claim that there have always been millions upon millions of closeted trans people through history.
00:05:07.100All of the available data, all of it, tells us that there are many, many, many, many, many more trans identifying people in the youngest generation than in any other generation in human history.
00:05:18.260You can either believe what the data tells you, what all of it tells you, all of it, or you can invent a story entirely unsupported, completely built on your imagination about millions and millions and millions of theoretical trans people in older generations who don't show up in the data.
00:05:35.980This is what you're reduced to because you don't want to accept what your eyes tell you and tell all of us that trans identification has skyrocketed in recent years.
00:05:44.160Because you're left then theorizing about invisible trans people and other generations, even though you have no evidence that they even exist.
00:05:52.160I believe in working hard for what you have.
00:05:54.440Who do you trust to handle any and all of your financial obligations if you can?
00:05:58.240According to a recent poll, 62% of Americans who think about their own death a lot of the time still do not have a will.
00:06:04.480That's kind of like being afraid of drowning but refusing to wear a life jacket.

00:08:09.360The kids were happy and well-behaved and disciplined.
00:08:12.500And I tried my hardest because this is how I was raised.
00:08:15.480Okay, I was raised by a stay-at-home mom.
00:08:17.360I was raised with kind of the mindset of like, this is your job is to like make him know that like he's appreciated and that his house is taken care of and yadda yadda yadda.
00:08:26.080On top of all that, I did all the fun little things in the bedroom he wanted me to do.
00:08:29.920I would send him dirty pictures at work and try to keep the spice alive.
00:08:40.860And I got more and more desperate to try to be a better wife the worse it got.
00:08:46.220Because I was taught, like this Matt Walsh post, that if it failed, if the marriage failed, if we weren't happy, if he wasn't happy, it was on me.
00:08:55.520It was because I wasn't grateful enough.
00:08:56.900It was because dinner wasn't ready soon enough.
00:09:07.640But you're making a mistake that many people make these days of assuming that a general principle is wrong because of your own personal experience.
00:09:14.800So it's like if I said that you should lock your doors at night and use an alarm system to prevent break-ins.
00:09:20.140And you responded that my advice is bad because you did that and still had a break-in.
00:09:25.020Okay, but does that mean that you shouldn't lock your doors and use an alarm system?
00:09:28.460If a certain strategy isn't totally foolproof and perfect, does that automatically make it bad?
00:09:34.620What I'm recommending is that women should be grateful and loving towards their husbands.
00:09:39.900Now, it's true that you could be grateful and loving to your husband and still end up in a terrible marriage because he's a terrible person.
00:10:27.060I just didn't happen to make that point in that particular statement that you read.
00:10:30.480There are many points that I didn't make because I was only making the point that I did make.
00:10:34.660I can't say everything every time I say anything.
00:10:37.360And that limitation does not give you the right to invent a whole series of opinions and statements I never expressed, which is what you just did.
00:10:46.960You cannot be something and also the negation of that thing at the same time.
00:10:51.640Matt Walsh is just going to be upset with people using micro labels.
00:10:54.580See, he wants to have it both ways, where he hates the oversaturation of language with micro labels, yet when something is not 100% consistent and precise enough, he gets mad at that too.
00:11:08.320Either we have to use umbrella terms, which are not going to be exactly precise, yet as long as we understand that if somebody says bisexual and asexual, they're probably referring to romantic attraction to both genders or perhaps a little sexual attraction to both genders.
00:11:23.760If this is the position that Matt Walsh is taking, it is going to be logically inconsistent for him to later take issue with micro labeling.
00:13:45.120Because the moment you notice a variation within a category, you create a whole new category for that variation.
00:13:53.080So rather than just allowing for the fact that sexual people, heterosexual, homosexual, people who experience sexual attraction, rather than allowing for the fact that there are varying sexual appetites and there are people that have greater appetites than others, rather than just allowing for that, you carve out anyone with a lower appetite and you put them in the asexual box.
00:14:16.700You've removed them from this box and put them in this one instead.
00:14:19.960And you do this kind of thing everywhere in every context.
00:14:23.580The most obvious example, of course, is how you've eliminated masculine women from existence, tomboys we used to call them.
00:14:29.540You've erased that variation by labeling them trans men.
00:14:33.220See, this is the worst part about the way that you label.
