Actress Bette Midler sent her woke fans into an outrage on Monday when she defended women against the onslaught of the transgender agenda that says biological men can be women.
Declaring independence from the increasingly aggressive trans agenda, Midler said that women are "being stripped" of everything that makes them unique.
"WOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name! They don’t call us 'women' anymore; they call us 'birthing people' or 'menstruators', and even 'people with vaginas'!" Midler tweeted.
"Don’t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you!" she added.
\u201cWOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name! They don\u2019t call us \u201cwomen\u201d anymore; they call us \u201cbirthing people\u201d or \u201cmenstruators\u201d, and even \u201cpeople with vaginas\u201d! Don\u2019t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you!\u201d— bettemidler (@bettemidler) 1656948480
Midler did not specify whom she meant by "they," but she was presumably referring to activists and organizations that demand everyone uses "inclusive" language. Such language claims that biological men can also be women and undergo the same experiences that are unique to women.
After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, for example, the American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood made it clear they believe that "abortion care" is not limited to women.
Midler's tweet generated fierce backlash from people who believe she is promoting discrimination and — gasp — "transphobia."
The actress was even accused of being a "TERF," or trans-exclusionary radical feminist, a term that pro-trans advocates call women who believe that calling a biological man/transgender woman a "woman" erodes the true meaning of femininity.
Transgender journalist India Willoughby even accused Midler of promoting "fascist propaganda" disseminated by foreign intelligence agencies and claimed Midler has adopted tactics used by Joseph Stalin and chief Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.
