Challenging Gender Fluidity: A Critical Examination Of The Western Gender Identity Movement

This article embarks on a comprehensive exploration of the genesis of gender identity and its profound repercussions, specifically in the West. It delves into the intricate web of public perception, where eternal verities of identity are increasingly regarded as social constructs. I confront the pressing issue of whether transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in women's sports, a matter with far-reaching implications. Similarly, the complex question of whether transgender inmates should be housed in women's prisons has also been addressed. Within this preposterous tapestry of gender identity, I also draw attention to the personal experiences of individuals who have undergone gender transitions but subsequently expressed deep regret over their decisions, followed by the decision to close the Tavistock Gender Identity Clinic. The article concludes by presenting a set of proposed legal safeguards designed to protect the interest of children, who will play a pivotal role in shaping India's future.
