A narrow victory for trans rights, and a defeat for the transphobes, from the state of Kansas.


As usual, the bill targeted the genitals of trans girls, not trans boys. Thankfully there were just enough votes to prevent this hate bill from being overridden. 🏳‍⚧ (Why isn't the trans pride emote working?)
 
This issue is nothing more than the folks on the right have another opportunity to be outraged. They don't care about this stuff.

Well what is wasn't was a victory for real women or girls who participate in athletics who now will have to compete against men playing as women.

The dead giveaway is that before this latest moral panic of theirs, social cons could have hardly cared less about women and girls in sports. Now they pretend to be their white knights.

Should trans people be able to fight in female UFC divisions too? I can't wait for that all-trans champion lineup.
 
Yep. Putting transgender rights ahead of those who function normally in society. Meh…..
