British PM Sunak condemns transgenderism, says ‘man is man, woman is woman’
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has condemned transgenderism, saying people should not be bullied into believing anyone can “be the sex they want to be.”
“It also shouldn’t be controversial for parents to know what their children are learning in school about relationships,” Mr Sunak said in his speech at the 2023 Conservative Party conference on Wednesday.
With his party members cheering, Mr Sunak said people cannot be the sex they want, stating, “a man is a man and a is a woman.”
“We shouldn’t get bullied into believing people can be any sex they want to be. They can’t. A man is a man, and a woman is a woman; that is just common sense,” said Mr Sunak.
Mr Sunak further said, “We are going to change this country, and that means life means life. That shouldn’t be a controversial position. The vast majority of hard-working people agree with it.”
The prime minister’s statement has sparked reactions with LGBTQ supporters accusing him of spreading hate.
An X user @Harry_is_human said, “So he’s confirming he’s a nasty little transphobe, appealing to the nastiest wings of the transphobic press. To the bigots – if it is pointed out that you are a nasty person upsets you, the simplest way out is to stop being a nasty person.”
“I am sorry, but It is not for us to judge people, certainly not an unelected PM whose government believes they can do what they like. Maybe that is judging may be not, but it is my opinion,” @PaTD194441600 said.
