Woke Language Guide at Johns Hopkins University Erases Women
“the current definition of ‘lesbian’ describes it as ‘a non-man attracted to non-men'”
The patriarchy wins again. Maybe feminists have had a valid point on this all along.
The Daily Mail reports:
Trust the science? Prestigious Johns Hopkins University erases women from woke new inclusive language guide that describes lesbians as ‘non-men attracted to non-men,’ – but still refers to male gays as ‘men’
The prestigious Johns Hopkins University has erased the word ‘women’ from a newly produced ‘inclusive language guide’ in its definition of the term ‘lesbian’.
The Baltimore-based university is known for its excellence in education and research, particularly in the field of medicine and recognized as one of the top medical institutions in the world.
Yet the establishment appears to fall well short when it comes to basic terminology involving the sexes in the university’s LGBTQ+ glossary.
The extensive glossary is filled with definitions that aim to be inclusive, reflecting an evolving understanding of gender and sexual identity.
But the current definition of ‘lesbian’ describes it as ‘a non-man attracted to non-men’. Many feminists were particularly infuriated that the word ‘woman’ was vanquished – while their gay male counterparts were still referred to as ‘men.’
The glossary is emblematic of the current struggle being faced by supporters of transgender rights who none the less claim that the word ‘women’ is ‘being erased’ in favor of woke terms such as ‘birthing people’ and ‘menstruators’.
Why is a lesbian a non-man but a gay person isn’t a non-woman? Progressive misogyny. pic.twitter.com/INy07NRsqI

Here’s an idea. Stop using all those gender-related words, and defund all the research and teaching based on it. Everything’s gender blind and, to the extent possible, sex blind although Title IX gets in the way.
The current ridiculous glossary at JHU shows that gender focus an unproductive direction.
‘a non-man attracted to non-men’
From a guide written by non-sapients for non-sapients.
“The Baltimore-based university is known for its excellence in education and research”
Not to mention its irrational and virulent embrace of firearms prohibition under the false flag of “public health” (remind you of anyone else you know?)
The need for a “glossary” of made up terms for people that understand and use English is an abomination.
Johns Hopkins is now a mutilation/vivisection center.
They killed the “do no harm” provisions of their craft.
I like Ben Shapiro’s humorous take.
Lesbian: Non-Man attracted to Non-Man.
So squirrels 🐿️ are Lesbian or was it Lesbians are squirrels 🐿️?
Epic fail by the brainiacs at JHU.
If a lesbian is a non-man attracted to non-men, then every animal or insect that mates is a lesbian. LOL!
