Victor Madrigal-Borloz, the United Nation’s independent expert on sexual orientation and gender identity, delivered his latest report to the U.N. General Assembly last week that should set off alarm bells around the world.
The report concludes that the world must choose between a path of “exclusionary narratives” advanced by “ultraconservative political leaders and religious groups” that perpetuate violence and discrimination, or a path of inclusivity guided by “gender theory” and human rights.

Gender theory is another woke ideology—an outgrowth of feminism and critical theory—which, among other things, considers the categories of “male” and “female” to be oppressive stereotypes.
While these U.N. reports may seem like meaningless ivory tower rhetoric, they contribute to a growing body of quasi-legal documents that legislators and even Supreme Court justices can invoke, paving the way for radical progressive policy to reenter American policy, law, and politics.
Not only do these ideas creep into the American legal body, but they also embolden those who seek to change traditional cultures around the world through ideological colonialism.
In this case, the left is pushing a radical view of gender that’s inconsistent with the religious beliefs and practices of many countries—and speech-control for those who disagree. It’s dangerous advice that undermines the idea of fundamental human rights based upon inherent human dignity.

The word “gender” does not appear in the foundational documents of human rights law, namely the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
When the landmark international conference on women’s empowerment, known as the Fourth World Conference on Women, approved its “platform for action” document in Beijing in 1995, it clarified that its use of “gender” was “intended to be interpreted and understood as it was in ordinary, generally accepted usage”—that is, a synonym for biological sex.
