Transgender DAR · Let's Ask the Mamas!

  We got a question for American mama. Dear mama, should the Daughters of
• 0:02
  the American Revolution let men into their organization? Well, let's ask our American
• 0:08
  mama, Mama, and joining us now our American Mama, Terry Nettaville.
• 0:24
  So, the Daughters of the American Revolution is a it's a club. It's
• 0:27
  a social club for women, and you have to be able to prove that
• 0:31
  your family lineage goes back to someone who who supported the revolution, either a
• 0:38
  man or a woman who was involved in the American Revolution back in seventeen seventy
• 0:41
  six, seventeen eighty one. You have to be able to prove your family's
• 0:44
  lineage back that far to be able to join this club. And it's been
• 0:48
  called the Daughters of the American Revolution because it has only been for women since
• 0:54
  it's inception, the Women's Society, Women's Society, Daughters of the Revolution.
• 1:00
  My daughter would be eligible for it, Yeah, my mother was my grandmother
• 1:04
  also, and she's also eligible for the Daughters of the Texas Revolution. But
• 1:07
  that's a different organization. So now the Daughters of the American Revolution just change
• 1:12
  their by laws and they're going to let men, but only some men into
• 1:21
  the Daughters of the America. No longer can you discriminate on the basis of
• 1:25
  gender, Yeah, gender, religion, or sexual orientation, which is odd
• 1:30
  for an organization called Daughters. Yeah, this is baffling to me. And
• 1:34
  what's happening is you see in this chapter that I just read about. You
• 1:38
  know, you have those board members stepping down, members stepping down members saying
• 1:42
  I'm not doing this anymore and because of my faith, because the by laws
• 1:47
  did get changed, yes they did, and they're going to let men in.
• 1:49
  But there are many women in the organization who went, I can't be
• 1:55
  a part of yes, and it was with a heavy heart. They're very
• 1:57
  sad. They don't want to leave this organization exactly, and um and they
• 2:02
  felt like one of them just said that, you know, basically, this
• 2:05
  contradicts my deeply held religious beliefs. She believes that men and women are born
• 2:09
  biologically male or female, and that's what I believe as well. It's it's
• 2:14
  not only scientifically correct, it's also biblically correct. And they also said to
• 2:17
  this chapter or this organization that you can you can vote, but you may
• 2:25
  not, you know, but we will have to be our entity, will
• 2:29
  have to overrule if we feel like it's somebody says I want to be part
• 2:32
  of the organization, and the group chapter goes, oh gosh, I'm so
• 2:37
  sorry. Um are our chapters for women? Yeah, and then that can
• 2:42
  be appealed to the national board, and the national board can go discriminatory.
• 2:46
  So yeah, y'all can have him as your member. And and now the
• 2:49
  focus will be on him and because of his transgender because everything does you know,
• 2:53
  Once that does happen, my heart goes out to the women, and
• 2:57
  I mean my heart goes out to everybody involved, even the transgender who's trying
• 3:02
  to find a place in this world. Sure. The sad thing about it
• 3:06
  is we have now discovered that there are some sinister plots as well with some
• 3:09
  of these transgenders. We've seen it with the men that have transitioned just so
• 3:14
  they can go into the female prison system. You've seen it with the person
• 3:16
  that went into the women's sorority, yes and just stood and watch girls change
• 3:22
  clothes. Yeah, that's the problem is now you cannot just go in blindly
• 3:27
  and think, you know what they feel like, they're a woman inside.
• 3:30
  So we need to open our arms and open our hearts. And open our
• 3:32
  minds to this. We can no longer do that. Why because too many
• 3:38
  of these stories about the sinister plots are the weird, twisted ways that some
• 3:42
  of these men have transitioned. Even you know, two minutes ago he transitions
• 3:46
  and now he wins the bike you know, the bike race, and wins
• 3:50
  thirty five thousand dollars. Like now we see that this is literally taken fist
• 3:55
  feminine women back, like I would say a hundred years. All the feminists
• 4:00
  that came before us in the sixties and seventies and fought for women's rights right,
• 4:03
  fought for Title nine. I don't understand why they're not upset about this.
• 4:09
  Why are they not screaming at the top of their lungs and saying this
• 4:12
  is ridiculous, This is a woman's space. But some of them are,
• 4:15
  you know, Martina and average right? How universal? How is this not
• 4:21
  a universal women's rights issue? How are we not all on the same page?
• 4:27
  And why Stephen is it seemingly landing on political sides, like it is
• 4:33
  bizarre to me that the ones who are fighting for women's rights and to have
• 4:39
  safe women's spaces are women on the right, and the ones who are fighting
• 4:43
  for like Megan Rappino, fighting for women to be able to transition, and
• 4:47
  then play against women and take their spots and take their scholarships. Why is
• 4:53
  that seemingly on the left. It really doesn't seem to make sense, because
• 4:57
  again, the left was the one that pushed the equal rights men. Let
• 5:00
  one of those pushing women's rights. You know, you think of of um
• 5:04
  Jane Fondas she was a feminist, Well, she was also on the far
• 5:08
  left. And now they're they're trying to on the wrong side. They're on
• 5:12
  the wrongs. And I wonder if one day, because there will come a
• 5:15
  day, probably ten twenty years maybe more, that we look back on this
• 5:19
  time and this generation below us, the ones coming up, we'll look back
• 5:23
  and go, what happened to you guys? How did y'all not fight harder
• 5:27
  for this? You know? I mean, this is common sense. It
• 5:30
  feels like it's common sense. So I'm so I'm so sad because I don't,
• 5:34
  you know, I think about the boy Scouts of America, the girl
• 5:36
  Scouts of them of America, all the girl colleges, the female colleges,
• 5:41
  the male colleges, all like I think here in treport we used to have,
• 5:44
  like um, Loyelo used to be an all boys school, right,
• 5:47
  and then Saint Vincent was all the girls school. I mean, what is
• 5:50
  happening now? We're not gonna have any spaces where it's just um for one
• 5:56
  gender or the other. Like ask American Mama. Question good our website American
• 6:00

• 6:01
