A sitting MP in the European Parliament has actually buffooned efforts by pro-trans leftists to have him censored for criticising “men who pretend to be females”.
Cristian Terhes, a member of the European Conservatives and Reformists Group in the European Parliament, has actually mocked attempts by leftist politicians to have him censored after he criticised transgenderism in the European Parliament.
The Romanian political leader publicly voiced his criticism of the ideology throughout a current parliamentary argument on the ratification of the 2011 Istanbul convention versus gender-based violence, warning that the body’s abrupt inability to define what the word “woman” even now acts as a considerable challenge to protecting them as a sex.
“Obviously, this Parliament can not specify the term anymore,” he told the parliament.
Terhes went on to lambast the concept that a guy can unexpectedly self-identify as being a woman in numerous countries within the bloc, arguing that the very principle of treating males as the opposite sex is a real risk to ladies’s security.
The debate about #IstanbulConvention is not just about combating violence against females (all sane individuals oppose violence versus females), but redefining what a female is.

“Acknowledging, even in the law, that a man [who] can ‘determine’ as a lady, is a female, is just ridiculous and, really, the most significant hazard to women,” he argued. “This gender ideology is plainly weakening womankind and is a dream come to life for male perverts, who can declare now that they identify as ladies and are permitted to serve sentences in female jails where, in some circumstances, they left some pregnant.”
The criticisms have actually incensed a variety of left-wing MEPs within the parliament, 3 of which– after the debate– went so far regarding write to the body’s president requiring that Terhes be punished for “hate speech”.
Nevertheless, speaking with Breitbart Europe, Terhes mocked the attempts to censor him, vowing to continue fighting for the rights of his female constituents in Romania.

“Unable to argue on the biological realities and use reasonable arguments, the aggressive gender ideology campaigners ran to the President of the European Parliament asking her to silence me for saying an apparent claim: a man is not a female, and vice versa,” he informed Breitbart.
“It’s quite pitiful that extreme Leftist MEPs need to go to the headmaster to close down open debate and totally free speech on a problem that has actually currently exposed lots of ladies, including girls, to severe violence and fear that they will be attacked or aggressed in a ladies’s toilets by predatorial men who pretend to be women,” he continued.
He went on to say that he was not even provided with the letter the 3 MEPs sent out to the parliament’s president, and had to check out the document when an article about it was released in POLITICO.
“These extreme Leftist MEPs did not even have the honour to copy me in on their letter, so I needed to check out it in the media,” he explained, stating that such a rejection betrays the “weak point of their argument”.
Relatively undeterred by the censorship effort, however, Terhes went on to vow to continue defending the rights of his female constituents in Romania.
“I represent the Romanian women and males, and I have a commitment to stand up to safeguard women and their areas from male sexual predators,” he stated.
