Matt Walsh’s Documentary ‘What Is a Woman?’ Airs at The Daily Wire
Today marks the beginning of “LGBT Pride Month,” and The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh is releasing a new documentary, What Is a Woman?
The film airs tonight, June 1, at 8:00 Eastern Time, for Daily Wire members.
Walsh started his broadcast of The Matt Walsh Show today by announcing, in his usual sardonic style, “The holy month of ‘Pride Month’ begins today, and we’re kicking it off by waging an all-out assault on gender ideology, with my new film which premieres tonight.”
The political and cultural commentator first noted that the whole month, now celebrated by Fortune 500 corporations, celebrates several of the “deadliest of sins,” including the sin of pride.
He noted that the month has grown from one day of parades in different cities, to encompass a whole week, and then grew to become “Pride Month.”
The sarcastic host explained that Pride has now grown beyond a single month, with many days, weeks and months across the calendar that celebrate homosexuality and transgenderism.
He pointed to an official White House announcement, “A Proclamation on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, And Intersex Pride Month, 2022.” The proclamation states:
During Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+) Pride Month, we reflect on the progress we have made as a Nation in the fight for justice, inclusion, and equality while reaffirming our commitment to do more to support LGBTQI+ rights at home and abroad. I often say that America can be defined by one word: possibilities. This month, we celebrate generations of LGBTQI+ people who have fought to make the possibilities of our Nation real for every American.
The proclamation states that “the rights of LGBTQI+ Americans are under relentless attack,” through “an onslaught of dangerous anti-LGBTQI+ legislation” that targets “transgender children and their parents and interfering with their access to health care.”
Walsh said the “relentless attack” was a fantasy and pointed to bills that protect parental rights. He said that the opposite is true, with the “modern American LGBT person” – if he or she “conforms, ideologically, to the left-wing doctrines of the day” is “by far and away, the most privileged” of Americans.
Walsh went on to talk about What is a Woman?, saying the film would expose the confusion of gender ideology.
He said the release of the film at the beginning of Pride Month was “just the sort of petty and trolling move you’ve come to expect and love from me – or at least expect, I don’t know about love.”
The film began with a tweet he posted four years ago, “What is a woman?”
He said,
It occurred to me that the statement ‘I identify as a woman’ doesn’t mean anything if the person making the statement, or the people telling us to take the statement seriously, aren’t able to define the thing that the person is identifying as.
The non-answers from the left led to the development of the film.
Walsh has been tweeting about the movie, releasing short clips, like this one where he discusses being “non-binary” or “transgender with an African tribe.
Here’s a nice video to share for #PrideMonth. I spoke to an African tribe about transgenderism. The Left claims that traditional cultures have fluid notions of gender. That’s… not exactly what I found.
