2020 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition Includes A ("Transgender") Man

Of all the weird things about this...and it's, of course, just one small fragment/consequence of transgender ideology...which is itself just one part of radical progressive-left ideology...maybe the weirdest one is this: wouldn't you think that--if you were going to politicize and politically correct the SI swimsuit edition--you'd first just put a regular dude in it? I mean, if you were going to push leftist sexual orthodoxy in this way, wouldn't you start by pushing straight-up (as it were) bisexuality? That's a pretty ordinary, not-all-that-weird kind of transgression of traditional sexuality. This skips over the real question here, which is: why is Sports. Freaking. Illustrated. trying to reengineer its readers' sexuality? I really couldn't care a whole lot less about other people's sexual preferences. But I do think that it's perfectly fine to have venues that are dedicated to certain sexual preferences. And SI's swimsuit edition is, obviously, aimed at people who find women attractive. So: mostly straight (or, I guess, bisexual) dudes...though it'd also suit lesbian and bisexual women, of course. And given the insanity of current totalitarian leftist politics, I think people should resist basically everything about it--especially its efforts to control and reengineer us. So one thing to resist would be: politicizing the swimsuit edition in order to indoctrinate its readers and take a stab at reengineering their sexuality.
   But: if they insist on doing that, you'd think they'd start with something on the less radical end of things. But, instead, they go right for the most-controversial, most-confused, most-conceptually-radical thing: a man surgically altered to look like a woman...and, of course, they wouldn't do that if they weren't also pushing the progressive confusion that such men are women. And, hey, guys are attracted to women, right? So they should be attracted to this guy...who is, via the magic of ignoring the meaning of words, a woman! As I've said many times, it's the sophistry and the totalitarianism to which I object. I don't care what you like to look at.
   Most people find such body modification unattractive to say the least. In fact, most find it extremely so. Even repulsive. But these perfectly ordinary and normal reactions don't count. Because SI has, apparently, been "woke" (what an idiotic term). Their reactions must be altered to accord with totalitarian leftist ideology--because totalitarians want to control every aspect of human life. Hence the name. Nothing must be left to nature. Nothing must be left to you. Nor to the-culture-that-must-be-destroyed...
   Feminists have long sought to control our sexuality--recall the slogan "the personal is political." So this general tendency isn't new. What's amazing is how quickly it was able to capture the cultural high ground. On the basis of sheer shriekery, and with exactly zero sound arguments, we were all suddenly expected to accept that men could be women. They could do so merely by declaring it so! So here is SI, doing its bit to pretend that night is day, and to gaslight you in to agreeing. Night is day...night has always been day...anyone suggesting that night is not day is the moral equivalent of a racist...you don't deny that night is day, do you, bigot? Agree, believe, obey...
   I don't have to say this, but I will: some people are into men who are surgically and chemically altered to appear to be women (or vice-versa). Which is their business. And not mine. I'm not objecting to people doing their own thing. I'm objecting to cultural brainwashing that aims to badger everyone into accepting the sexual proclivities of the totalitarian left. Though honestly, I'm even more concerned about the fact that so many people--Americans!--are so easily badgered and bullied into going along with it.
