    Might want to look into the history there, abortion was known and performed in the 1700s. Franklin even includes some methods in a book of his from 1748.

    “It’s no surprise that the man obsessed with children’s bodies — especially transgender kids — is a predator,” González said in a statement. “The courage to stop a predator has to extend to opposing his crusade to fixate the entire state on children’s genitals. He’s been calling my community ‘perverts’ and ‘groomers’ for years — when it turns out he should’ve invested in a good mirror.”

    These old men ranting about other people's sex lives have always been suspect, bringing hypocrisy to stunning new levels.

    Some of them seem awfully concerned with inspecting other folks' genitalia under force of law.

    I would laugh but it is not funny. But the obsession with reproductive organs, inside and out is ridiculous. You do you. Deal with inflation, immigration, homelessness and so on. Distraction and drama does not solve true problems.

    The lawmakers and federal regulators and President Biden should stay out of it, but how strange it is that so many health professionals are uncomfortable with the existing genitalia and secondary sex characteristics of their patients and counsel them to cut it off, invert it, or shrink it with medication, etc.

    One of the real frustrations of of dealing this condition is the way medical professionals seem so fearful of putting their foot wrong politically. You wonder if you’re getting a genuine opinion or an institutional party line.

    Every June gay pride events are held to celebrate the anniversary of a bunch of drag queens in NYC who stood up to the police. Now, 54 years later, Wilton Manors Florida will have a gay pride celebration with no drag queens because now drag queens are illegal in Florida. Maybe it's time for Stonewall v. 2.0.

    Actually no, drag queens are not illegal in Florida. A bill in the legislature, although not yet signed by the Governor, would make it illegal for communities to issue permits for adult themed live performances in the presence of minors. In anticipation of the law's probable signing, the city of Wilton Manors has decided they can't trust the Drag Queens to limit their participation to family friendly themes and have declined to issue them the permit they need for the parade.

    So the drag queens are being preemptively silenced for something they ‘might’ do?
