A black lesbian Harvard law graduate was censored for “violating community rules” after stating that trans women do not belong in female spaces.
Monica Harris wrote a blog post
The post was quickly removed, and while she wanted to explain the “impact of transgender inclusion on the rights of women and lesbians,” her article was labeled as “hateful content.”
Harris talked about Thomas and Gaines
In her post, Harris, a Harward law graduate, spoke about how former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines felt she was “emotionally blackmailed and gaslit into silence.”
Gaines commented
Gaines referred to Lia Thomas, a trans swimmer, and Gaines commented on what it felt like competing with a trans athlete, “Being in that space with a male, it’s like a bad car wreck.”
Harris was “shocked”
The entertainment lawyer said she was “shocked” by the removal of her post since, “as a gay woman of color,” she had a particular interest in the matter. She turned to Fox News, where she spoke up about the censorship.
Harris explained her situation
“I’ve never been accused of advocating for a hateful position. What happened to me was shocking and ironic,” Harris wrote for Fox. She added, “I’m a published author and a TEDx speaker. Much of my writing focuses on bringing people together around our shared values and interests. I’ve never been accused of advocating hateful positions.”
The “ironic” incident
Harris explained, “This incident is laced with many ironies,” but she will not be silenced. Instead, she shared, “Protecting our sacred right to free speech isn’t easy or painless; it demands our constant vigilance and selflessness.”
The proof in the pudding
Writing on Fox News, the lawyer said that she was “silenced” for her beliefs “that inclusion of biological men in women’s sports, prisons, and other historically protected spaces potentially undermines the rights and safety of biological women and lesbians. Yet the act of deplatforming my article was, itself, proof of the marginalization I lamented in my article.”
Not a free society
Harris concluded that “for certain,” this is not a way to live in a “free society.” She also shared her worries, like, “Will I be branded a TERF if I continue to advocate for the rights of women and lesbians?” She also asked if her next article would be the one that gets her banned.
The “hateful” blog
In a now-deleted blog post, Harris wrote, “Testosterone’s effect on every cell in the male body is profound and explains why elite females cannot effectively compete against elite males.” She added how many choose to “ignore this biological reality.”
The advantage
She added, “They insist that excluding transgender athletes from women’s sports is discriminatory because it favors people who were born female over people who identify as female.”
Questions regarding women’s sports
The lawyer wondered, “Women’s sports, which once gave girls the confidence to compete in activities they would have otherwise been excluded from, are now setting them up for failure. Efforts to promote inclusion aren’t moving women forward; they’re pushing us backward.” Women are expected to “embrace your competitive disadvantage in the name of equality.”
