When I say, “I feel 20 years younger,” I know what that feels like because I’ve lived it. Even if I’m exaggerating, my statement is grounded in personal experience. But if I claim, “I feel 20 years older,” it’s just speculation. I’m making assumptions about an experience I’ve never had. Adding wrinkles or thinning my hair through surgery might mimic the appearance of aging, but it’s not the same as living 20 more years, where each wrinkle is earned. Similarly, a facelift may smooth out my wrinkles, but it doesn’t make me truly younger. Pretending otherwise would make me an imposter.
Impersonators vs Imposters
This idea of impersonation reminds me of when I once provided information for a government employee ID. The options for sex were: male, female, male impersonator, and female impersonator. Today, society would likely call male impersonators “trans men” and female impersonators “trans women.” Similarly, I recall watching a famous singer on TV, with backup dancers introduced as female impersonators—what we now refer to as drag queens.
The term “impersonator” fits situations like cross-dressing for performances. But it doesn’t capture the complexity of people who seek to live as the opposite sex, desire acknowledgment as such, and claim the privileges of that identity. For those cases, “imposter” seems more fitting— reflecting the concept of blending in among us under false pretenses.
Dangers of Normalizing Falsehoods
Why should anyone care about men becoming female imposters? There are valid concerns, like males using women’s bathrooms or competing against women in sports, raising safety and fairness issues. But the bigger problem is the promotion of ignorance as truth. Society now loudly declares that “trans women are women.” This is factually untrue. My guess is that many who say it know it’s untrue but cling to it because they want it to be true.
Worse, a new generation is growing up under this language of falsehood, genuinely believing that hormones and surgeries can change one’s sex. This isn’t just untrue; it’s profoundly disconnected from our current scientific reality. By normalizing this fiction, we’re raising a generation of social justice warriors who celebrate science fiction as fact. The inevitable result will be a wave of disillusionment as young people, having pursued these irreversible paths, realize their sex remains unchanged. Lawsuits and recriminations will follow, but the damage will be done.
Embracing True Life Experience
Some men claim to “feel like a woman,” but this is impossible. Just as I cannot know what it feels like to be 80 until I reach that age, men can never know what it feels like to be a woman. Each of us lives only one life, either as male or female, without choice in the matter. To claim otherwise is to misunderstand the nature of experience. You might desire to feel like the opposite sex, but you will never truly know what it’s like.
Too many confused individuals believe that by becoming an imposter, they are embracing their “true self.” But if your true self requires cross-hormone therapy and invasive surgery to destroy your natural anatomy, how “true” is it? The reality is that your sex cannot be changed. Believing otherwise is buying into a lie, one that robs you of the chance to embrace your real, unaltered self—the one that doesn’t require affirmation from a scalpel or syringe.
The Immutable Identity of Sex
The trans-affirming movement doesn’t just seek tolerance for the untrue; it demands celebration of an ideology built on falsehood. It insists that everyone accept and promote it, no matter the cost to reason or truth.
Even prominent figures have abdicated responsibility in this conversation. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson famously declined to define “woman,” stating she’s not a biologist. As a biologist, I’ll take up the mantle: Humans are created male and female, as both biology and Genesis 1:27 clearly show. These categories are immutable. You can refer to my decision tree guide to identify men and women—something that used to be obvious before society began weaving ignorance into its fabric.
