Washington Examiner Reports: Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) wants his fellow progressives to take the crisis of masculinity facing young men seriously. There is one major issue with that: They would have to admit that men exist.

Murphy lamented that the Left is “missing the crisis happening” with young men and that “we need to talk about it openly and without fear.” He is, of course, correct. There is a crisis of fatherhood, or lack thereof, leaving boys to grow into young men without proper guidance from male role models. People on the Right have noticed this, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) chief among them. Meanwhile, some bad actors have used the internet to profit off of this crisis and steer young men in even worse directions.

The problem for Murphy is that the Democrats and progressives he is urging to take this crisis seriously disagree with a simple statement he made: “We cannot avoid the biological/evolutionary differences between men and women.” This statement flies directly in the face of the transgender movement that has taken over the Democratic Party. You are supposed to think that there are no differences between men and women, that they are nothing more than two social categories between which you can switch at the drop of a hat.
