Feminism has a lot to answer for in this case. Telling a generation of women and girls that they are in danger and people will violate their bodies because they are women is inevitably going to make some of them not want to be women.
But that can't be all there is to it. You don't get an equivalent movement of blacks trying to bleach their skin and telling the rest of the world they're not black. Why is that? Honest question.
Feminism has an answer for some of this. Its just that the whole idea in many ways got corrupted and absorbed into lefty progressive ideals. This happened way before crt.
Mind you I can't play with the true rad fems because I think they are also nuts but..
Facts: on average and when comparing against similar levels of athletics and activity
Men are stronger, faster in short distances and can generally inflict violence easily on females *if they want to* without a counterbalancer at play.
A rad fem will tell you its inherent to men to want to perpetrate that violence. A saner one will tell you that isn't true, but they pretty much win if they want to. a liberal will ignore that guns are often a good equalizer. A gun toting politically homeless asshole like me will tell you that the sane fems are right and being armed is good.
Other fact: in some parts of the world male on female violence is in fact epidemic and normalized. Its mostly not the west with some exceptions. Gender specials ignore that in an actual patriarchy women cannot opt out of being women. Historically if a women could fool everyone she might live as a man but this has very little to do with trans, enby, or pronouns. Liberals ignore all of it and claim them as trans and ignore anything outside their privileged views. Rad fems will tell you everything is male on female violence even in the west. They're both nuts but it is still feminist to say the facts above and believe that such an arrangement as say Iran has about their women is horseshit.
It is completely a delusional view of the west that you are constantly in danger from everyone at all times for being female. Its equally delusional that you can possibly opt out of it without managing to actually truly live as a man to the point nobody clocks you ever.
You only get this incoherence by smashing up rad fem theory with lib fem theory which ofc makes no sense. At all.
Edit to add re race: for the same reason that in reality women can't easily opt out of being treated like a woman, black people know and are largely not stupid enough to think they can opt out of being seen as black. They can opt out of some stupid stereotypes and get an education but frankly skin bleaching won't make you look white if you have mostly African American features. Black people don't do much of this non binary horseshit either. Same reason. Not that this is in any way a validation of woke crt shit where all things are racist it just means they have at least a pinky toe left in the reality end of the pool
