You are a woman. You\u2019re married. You just had a baby. In the wake of this, can anyone really say, \u2018I\u2019m a woman. I\u2019m a man.\u2019 Do those terms have meaning any more?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou will be called a bigot, as I have been called; a hateful individual, a transphobe \u2014 the Left just likes to use all of these pejoratives when you are just speaking common sense,\u201d Owens answered. \u201cAnd I find this to be unbelievably offensive: the idea there are no differences between men and women, especially, as you just mentioned, me being someone that just gave birth six weeks ago. The idea that there is nothing that makes me special, nothing that makes me different from a man that stands up and says, \u2018I now identify as a woman,\u2019 it\u2019s quite frankly, insulting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd take a look at this,\u201d she continued. \u201cHonestly, just think about this for a second to really paint a picture of what the Left is trying to do: What they are saying right now is that LeBron James, when he was in high school and was drafted by the NBA, LeBron James, in all his physical prowess, should have been allowed to in high school to say, \u201cI no longer identify as a man; I identify as a woman,\u2019 and he should have been allowed to compete with every woman in every other competition, and that would have been deemed equal. That would have been deemed an exercise in achieving equality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that that is anything but,\u201d Owens posited. \u201cAnd this is the problem with the Left, Tucker; it\u2019s so, so serious: They do not understand what equality is. They don\u2019t know what equality means. They think it\u2019s sameness. They think we just need to make everybody a carbon copy of the other person; nobody can have any differences. They hate the idea of male, female, girl, boy, because that means that there are some differences between all of us. And there is. What conservatives fight for is, we want to make sure people have equal opportunities, but we acknowledge there are real biological realities that cannot be ignored.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Owens later pointed out the Left\u2019s hypocrisy when it comes to women, saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Here\u2019s actually what I find to be really funny, right? They go on about calling us transphobic, but think about somebody like Rachel Dolezal. The Left completely were so angry about her because she is, for lack of a better term, \u201ctransracial,\u201d right? She is a biological white female who woke up one day and decided that she was going to be black until she was discovered.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Well, imagine if Rachel Dolezal signed up and started taking opportunities away from black people for black academic success, black scholarships. Wouldn\u2019t the Left absolutely implode if Rachel Dolezal was given a scholarship because she thought she was black, she woke up one day and decided to be black? Why can\u2019t they have the same standards for women? Why are they allowing them to erase women?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>You know, they told us we should fear Donald Trump and the Trump administration, right, because women, it was going to be so dangerous if Trump got into office. Well, look at what Joe Biden did in just a couple of weeks in office. That is where the real concern lies.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Candace Owens - Fox News - Tucker Carlson - 3.1.21\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zXvWrBSkesU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
