Andrew Klavan Encourages Resistance Against Transgenderism, Arguing It Promotes Deception
Andrew Klavan, the host of the Daily Wire, spoke at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, criticizing American society’s acceptance of transgenderism as promoting deception. Invited by the Young America’s Foundation, Klavan discussed the concept of self in modern culture during his speech titled “Sex, God, and Liberty.” He emphasized the need to compassionately resist the normalization of transgenderism, highlighting the distortion of reality and the influence of postmodern theories.
Daily Wire host Andrew Klavan spoke to a crowd of students at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill on Wednesday, saying that American society’s embrace of transgenderism was teaching people to “live a lie.”
Klavan, who was brought to campus by the Young America’s Foundation, spoke to the college students about modern culture’s conception of the self in a speech entitled, “Sex, God, and Liberty.” During a Q&A session after the speech, Klavan was asked to expound on his thoughts on transgenderism and why so many young people were starting to identify as transgender.
Klavan, host of “The Andrew Klavan Show,” said that he believed that transgenderism denied reality and that people needed to push back acceptance of it in a “loving way.”
“We’re teaching people to live a lie, we’re teaching people that if they can just bully everybody into believing the lie it will somehow magically become true, and that has its roots in postmodern theory where language creates reality, which it just doesn’t. Language describes reality,” Klavan said. “All of these things to me are tremendously damaging and are going to get worse until people start pushing back against it in a loving way.”
The bestselling author said that some young people were being pushed to embrace transgenderism because they believed that all men and all women needed to be exactly the same. He said that this belief was leading them to adopt an identity he said would be harmful to them.
“I know people, young people who are having this problem and it breaks my heart because I think that moving into an area of falsehood is going to make them miserable in the long run,” Klavan said.

Earlier in his speech, Klavan talked about the push for people to accept the phrase “trans women are women,” a slogan frequently posted across X. Klavan said the problem with the statement was that it was “not true” and it would lead to people living unhappy lives.
He added that transgender ideology seemed to specifically target women because of the modern disdain for true femininity.
“I can tell you from a lifetime of experience that if you live by things that are untrue you will be miserable,” Klavan said. “It’s just not a true statement. Words have meanings and the meanings of those words don’t make any sense. You can change, declare the meaning, but we all know what a woman is.”
