"Their eyes are fixed firmly on the Millennials. Many of them who don’t even vote now but will in a few years."
The problem with this tactic is that the older millennials get, the more likely they are to realise the inherent problems with gender ideology.
When you are young and protected in the bubbles of school, college and youth subculture, radical social ideas appear safer because you only assess their impact according to those environments - - after all, it's all you know.
But once you go out into the real world, where you are one adult amongst millions of all ages, cultures, generations and types, the picture changes. It's no longer a question of a fellow student using female facilities, but pretty much anyone.
I've seen the left pursue the youth market for years, thinking it will propel them into the stratosphere. I even thought that myself in my twenties. The problem is that life happens to those young people, and their experiences cause them to move to more conservative (small C) positions.
For any organic social change, you need a supportive majority of adults aged between 30 and 65. That's where the numbers are. But you've got to allow for the life experience factor that starts to change perspectives once people are over 30: people start having families, wanting secure housing etc. Priorities change drastically.
That's why they've pursued closed doors lobbying on this issue. They know it will never receive the support of the public in the way gay rights legislation did.
