The Unified Health System is institutionalizing gender ideology in Brazil, denounces congresswoman

Federal congresswoman Chris Tonietto (PL-RJ) denounced the institutionalization of gender ideology by the Lula government through the creation of the “National Program of Gender Equity, Race and Valuing of Women Workers” in the Unified Health System (SUS).

The Ministry of Health (MS) Ordinance establishing the Program was published in the Official Gazette of the Union (DOU) last March 8.

Ironically, the same day was marked by denunciations and warnings about the harm caused by the gender agenda to women.

According to the parliamentarian, the document is aligned with the ideology that abstracts the biological sex while promising to privilege “women”.

But to obtain rights, all that is needed is the declaration of the gender of preference.

At first, Ordinance 230 of the MS says it has as its object “the creation and expansion of the conditions necessary for the exercise of gender and race equity within the SUS”.

The initial text is about confronting violence in the workplace, equal working hours, continuing education, and professional appreciation.

According to Tonietto, despite the characteristic language used by militancy, the real object of the Ordinance escapes the hurried reader.

According to her, the most serious is in the document’s annexes.

When talking to Brasil Sem Medo, the congresswoman said she was “surprised at the degree of boldness” of the government, which for the first time institutionalized, in an official document, the gender ideology.

Besides making official concepts created by feminists, the Ordinance also determined the creation of a monitoring system to follow the implementation of the Program.

All are paid for with public resources.

“Those who read the Ordinance think it is only about equality between men and women. This is a fallacy. When you read the annexes, it becomes clearer. For the first time, they will effectively conceptualize what gender is […].”

“In another part, when it talks about ‘gender identity’, it says that a person’s identity comes exclusively from his or her declaration regarding gender, that is, the biological reality is left behind”, said the congresswoman.

She also explained that the concepts used in the Ordinance are reproductions of theories created by authors worshipped by feminists.

Tonietto refers to the ideologists Amy S. Wharton and Ann Marilyn Strathern, who have excerpts from the two theories cited in the Ordinance.

In quoting the authors, the MS says that “gender is one of the principles of social organization” and “refers to behaviors, performativities, and roles that a given society, at a given time, considers coherent for men and women.”

“These roles are socially constructed and hegemonically underpinned by a biological perspective.”

Earlier in the day, while participating in a live stream with federal congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), Tonietto recalled that those who opposed gender ideology were called “conspiracy theorists”, “crazy,” and “extremists” since the concepts created by feminists circulated only in university environments and always appeared hidden in the public debate.

“For the first time, we have an official document that brings the concept of gender […] not to mention that the MH Ordinance is permeated by several issues that will show the introduction of this concept throughout the country,” warned the congresswoman during the live broadcast.

The history of how the word “gender” was re-signified by ideologists over time is unknown to most of the population.

However, the use of terms that seem to defend women’s rights has already been modified by intellectuals to the point that they no longer refer to men or women, becoming, actually, a threat to women.
