When the the ultimate defeat of transgender ideology is written about in the history books one day, a considerable portion of it will give credit to the brave women like these who were unafraid to risk their careers and their safety to fight back:
Six of the seven women suing their [University of Wyoming] sorority for allegedly coercing its members into inducting a transgender person revealed their names in open court Thursday.
One woman has dropped out of the lawsuit.
The six remaining plaintiffs are Jaylyn Westenbroek, Hannah Holtmeier, Allison Coghan, Grace Choate, Madeline Ramar and Megan Kosar.
These are some of the faces of modern courage:
The women were ordered to reveal their names by U.S. District Judge Alan Johnson, who is handling the case in the Cheyenne branch of the U.S. District Court.
On the one hand, it would seem paramount that these women are shielded from the potential for targeted attacks and harm. Indeed, the University of Wyoming actually increased its security around the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority house due to concerns of violence.
On the other hand, Johnson himself made a pretty decent point when he gave the order:
The bottom line is this. Lawsuits are public events, and the public, especially here, has an important interest in access to legal proceedings. ... Plaintiffs may not levy serious accusations without standing behind them.
It's hard stuff. Not easy. None of this is easy.
But the alternative is even worse. Consider why these ladies are suing their sorority:
[One] witness said that Langford often "claims (when another) person disagrees with him (it is) because he is transgender," according to the lawsuit. ...
Another has on at least five occasions entered the sorority house to find Langford sitting alone in a chair in the living room, staring at women as they walk past. She and other sorority members have noticed an erection visible through Langford's leggings during these instances, the suit alleges. ...
Langford also reportedly submitted "a blacklist to sorority leadership naming members who disagree with [his] induction."
These women just wanted to join a sorority and enjoy a fun tradition of college life. Instead they're being subject to sexual harassment, intimidation, and potential censure — all because they don't want a mentally unwell man in their women's organization.
Big respect must be given to these women for going through with it. They're taking a stand for women and girls everywhere, whose rights are being trampled, whose safety is being threatened, and whose opportunities are being denied.
