Lesson from history: transgender mania is a sign of cultural collapse.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8BRdwgPChQ</
Historically, the movement towards androgeny occurs in late phases of culture,
as a civilisation is starting to unravel.
You can find it again and again and again through history. In the Greek art, you can see it happening: all of a sudden there's a kind of, you know, the sculptures of handsome, nude, young men athletes that used to be very robust in the archaic period suddenly began to seem like wet noodles toward the end, and the people who live in such periods, in the late phase of culture, whether it's the Hellenistic era, whether it's the Roman Empire, whether it's the mauve decade of Oscar Wilde in the 1890s, whether it's Weimar Germany, people who live in such times feel that they're very sophisticated, they're very cosmopolitan. Homosexuality, heterosexuality, so what, anything goes, and so on.
But from the perspective of historical distance, you can see that it's a culture that no longer believes in itself. And then what you invariably get are people who are convinced of the power of heroic masculinity on the edges, whether it's the Vandals or the Huns, or whether they're the barbarians of isis, you see them starting to mass on the outsides of the culture. And that's what we have right now, so there is a tremendous and rather terrifying disconnect between the infatuation with the transgender movement in our own culture and what's going on out there.
