"A specific but ill-informed attack on the new Minnesota law is in dire need of a reality check. Critics contend, wrongly, that it mandates menstrual products in boys’ bathrooms. This has unfortunately been used to stoke ongoing culture wars over transgender individuals.

But the law’s actual language provides considerable flexibility for school districts to implement it, according to Deb Henton, the executive director of the Minnesota Association of School Administrators.

That might mean making these products available for free in various locations for all who need them, such as unisex bathrooms, girls’ bathrooms, the school nurse or the front office, but not necessarily in boys’ bathrooms. Henton, in an interview, lauded the “local control” the law provides for implementation, and said she’s fielded no concerns about its rollout.

At Anoka-Hennepin, the state’s largest school district, the free products are not found in traditional male-only bathrooms, a spokesman said. But they are provided for free to all in “nongendered bathrooms,” girls’ bathrooms or from health staffers.

There’s nothing radical about Minnesota’s new law. Instead it’s a smart, low-cost measure to address educational achievement gaps, one that many states are embracing. Weaponizing this measure is laughably out of touch and likely to backfire not only with women, but all who care about them."

By usurping parental rights it does both of those things. Why are you supporting the genital mutilation of children?
try actually reading the legislation

You cannot bring someone else's child to Minnesota against the will of the child's parents. That is kidnapping. The legislation does not say that people are allowed to being children who are not theirs to Minnesota. The link is right there. Read the legislation.

No one is mutilating the genitals of children. That is just a lie.

Why are you choosing to lie here?

The legislation supports people bringing children in from other states. The law contains the following, "the removal of a child issued in another state solely because the child's parent or guardian assisted the child in receiving gender-affirming care in this state must not be enforced in this state". This prevents the rights of parents in other states from enforcement regardless of the reason the child is in Minnesota.

You are still advancing the support of the mutilation of the genitals of children. That is no lie.

"Gender-affirming care, sometimes referred to as transition-related care, is life-saving healthcare for transgender people of all ages. It is not a single category of services but instead is a range of services, including mental health care, medical care, and social services. At all ages, clear, well-established, evidence-based standards of care exist for who can access what form of gender affirming care, and when they are eligible to receive it........
Transgender and non-binary people who begin transitioning during childhood or adolescence work closely with parents and health care providers — including mental health providers — to determine which changes to make at a given time that are age-appropriate and in the best interest of the child.
At all stages, parents, young people and medical professionals make decisions together, and no permanent medical interventions happen until a transgender person is old enough to give truly informed consent."

Get the facts -- it's not a simple nor quickly achieved process.

Read it again.

It involves parents who are being persecuted for getting their child appropriate care and to escape that they have left their state. The law says that warrants for the arrest of parents in such cases are not to be enforced in Minnesota.

The lie is that children's genitals are being mutilated.

See the post by Spice above.

Where does it say they're have the right to "mutilate" kids' genitals??
