About 10 years ago I heard a MAGA influencer explain why he would stop using female pronouns when referring to trans women. He said he’d continue using their legal name, if legally changed though, since it was a legal reality.

Democrats get labeled as obsessed with trans people yet Republicans spent their time during the shutdown doing this.
Admiral Rachel Levine was the first transgender person to be confirmed by the Senate to serve in the federal government. Her official portrait at HHS headquarters has been altered. n.pr/48HypvT

Was Eve the First Transgender Female?
Some people argue that since Eve was formed out of a rib containing male DNA, she was a transgender woman, and therefore God approves of people transitioning. Here’s why this argument doesn’t work.

MAGA is very unlike traditional conservatives, which is what makes them dangerous.
Traditional conservatives believed that governmental power needed to be limited and that 'agents' of the gov't couldn't just show up at your door and make demands under threat of criminal penalties.

A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... & of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Here’s how the Epstein Files will not get released: DOJ declares it an open investigation. The vote can still be held to release the files, Republicans can still vote to release the files, but since it’s an open investifation they can’t release the files. GOP members get to pose as anti-child sex.

For everyone wanting to “protect women and children” let’s put the focus back where it belongs, eh?…
… On cis men with privilege and power.
Pointing the finger at trans people (or migrants, or Muslims) is just a distraction tactic used by powerful people trying to maintain their status.

I recently traveled by car across most of the US. At many rest stops I saw restroom signs with a helpline number for victims of human trafficking.
Why is our govt not making it a top law enforcement priority to end human trafficking?
I think we all know why.
This disgrace must end.
