\u2014Suggested<\/a> San Francisco was dealing with a COVID-19 shutdown because it\u2019s \u201ca big gay town.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Referred<\/a> to transgender activists as \u201cBig Tr*nny\u201d: \u201cSo, when Big Tr*nny came for [the Boy Scouts], they caved instantly, and admitted transgender cubs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Called<\/a> a Canadian non-discrimination law protecting trans people an \u201cOrwellian assault on the most fundamental language, the language which defines the two sexes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Questioned<\/a> whether Pete Buttigieg is actually gay since he has \u201ca very non-gay look.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Wrote<\/a> of LGBTQ rights: \u201cHaving done an impressive job of demolishing the basic societal building block of the family, the left has now advanced to demolishing the basic biological building block of the sexes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014A critic of transgender youth in sports, insisting<\/a> that trans competitors \u201cwreck a statewide sport for all the other participants.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Suggested<\/a> transgender activism is \u201cbiological man\u2019s\u201d attempt to replace women: \u201cBut where else can a biological man\u2019s natural genetic strength find an outlet in today\u2019s world? All the physical jobs are being lost to automation, and all the non-physical ones\u2014from hotshot lawyering to the paper-shuffling cubicle jobs in health-care administration\u2014are better done by women. When it comes to being the breadwinner and the provider, women are better at being men. When it comes to the fashion catwalk and the beauty pageant and the female athletics track, men are better at being women. Sooner than you think, the swap will be complete.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Demeaned<\/a> presidential candidate and U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren for saying she would include the voices of transgender youth: \u201c[Voters] wanted actual, serious policy, and they are not interested in letting the 9-year-old transgender fly the plane. They understand all that rubbish for the gesture politics that it is.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014Wrote a column<\/a> for the conservative National Review<\/em> that included two homophobic jokes, forcing National Review<\/em>\u2019s own editor to condemn the \u201cderogatory language\u201d<\/a> that Steyn chose to include.<\/p>\n
