Anti-trans bill passes in Kentucky

[Viker]

I'm in a state of shock. Not surprised.

I'm going to go sit down and chill somewhere, again.

Anti-trans bill passes in Kentucky

Thankfully it'll get vetoed, then challenged in court.

I'm sure. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Looking over the bill, it is junk. I don't see this as an end to the fight.

Title is misleading.

It's just for minors.

Once they hit 18, they are good to go.

Well, even that it is just for minors is a problem.

May the republicans get flushed away at the next election.

So, no, you don't care about nanny state over reach as you clearly just don't mind when the government steps in to make decisions about healthcare and bans an accepted treatment, all because your side likes to think its ignorance, stupidity, hatred and bigotry lets it know better than the experts who actually study and work with the trans community.

I wish. To be realistic this is Kentucky. If not for Louisville it would likely be the darkest scarlet of the red states.

Took the words away from me.

Challenged in court means it can potentially proceed as planned the way Republicans have focused on packing the courts.

Can't stand the nanny state, can you?

Me either.

Attempting to dodge it, are we?
You did say it just puts them off until they turn 18. That is this nanny state you rail about, it is liberty and rights destroying, they are victims of facism that wears a suit of Christian Nationalism, and you said oh well. This doesn't even respect the parental rights your side likes to yip and yipe about. And you dismissed it as oh well.

I'll take that as a yes.

Thank you.

If that's how you wish to see it. I see it as more state encroachment on individual choices. Most of these minors would still be well into their teens. What did you decide was going to be the course of your life at 16/17? Did you have a grasp of your identity or sexuality? Did anyone in authority discourage or block you?

What's next, strict dress codes? Hair styles? Perhaps classes to teach girls how to cook and clean, while boys get to go camping and learn how to fix cars? School transcripts can be colored pink and blue with coursework which prepares young students for their legislated life - barefoot and pregnant, or suit and ties.
