Alabama is seeking a transgender healthcare ban for minors. It would prohibit doctors from prescribing puberty blockers and performing surgeries for transgender youth. Violation of the law is punishable by 10 years in prison. https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/alabama-moves-closer-transgender-health-care-ban-minors-n1154791 These are decisions that belong solely to the child, their doctor, and their parents FULL STOP! Who the fuck do these people think they are? If this passes (and it most likely will), I fear for the physical and mental health of Alabama's transgender youth. Make no mistake, this isn't about the well-being of transgender youth. It's straight up transphobia! God I hate my state!

“At Starbucks, writing your name on a cup and calling it out is a symbol of our warm welcome. It’s a small gesture, but it's symbolic of what we believe in: Recognition and acceptance, whoever you are, or want to be. We welcome everyone,” Starbucks U.K. noted in the YouTube description. https://www.advocate.com/business/2020/2/03/starbucks-calls-trans-man-his-name-heartwarming-ad Bravo, Starbucks!

Good Lord where do I even begin with this!? He blames his mother for being transgender because she spoke in a feminine tone to him. He states that he is not and never was Transgender, he had Gender Identity Disorder which apparently ALL transgenders have, they just need the POWER OF JESUS!!!! He states he started transition at the age of four, wearing girl clothes and such. He says it was the beginning of his sinful life and Jesus fixed him. I mean.... he's not a grifter like Ex Gay Greg, but maybe you guys would like to check this guy out. He's very outspoken about becoming ex-LGBT and ex-transgender. I'm confused how he ended up on my friends list, and he added me to his group without asking me first, so I get to see all the crazy on my timeline. heres the link to his public Facebook group. https://m.facebook.com/groups/1449966591921449 Enjoy!!!!

Any interesting debate started on Guinn's public page today regarding her stance on trans bathrooms (the argument made it over to Pickles, and you can see it here). https://www.facebook.com/Duggar-Family-News-Life-is-not-all-pickles-and-hairspray-269181913180625/?fref=ts But, the liberal Duggar friend, Krista, responded this way, which I found interesting: I'd like to point out that I don't believe individuals fear trans people using a bathroom, they fear sexual violence. And, in order to move forward, we really need to identify this fear. Also, would you want someone who looks like Cait Jenner in a men's room? If we're truly afraid of individuals being sexually hurt, Cait is at a much larger risk than ANY OTHER POPULATION for being assaulted if she was to use a men's restroom. Also, what bathroom are individuals who are intersex (born biologically both male and female) to do? I understand your fears, friends. I understand how scary it is that America is moving away from traditional values. I understand how frustrating and scary and confusing it is to wonder, "What would Jesus want? What does Jesus do?" In all of this, whether you support trans bathrooms or not, we ALL MUST ASK OURSELVES, "Is what I'm about to say/write going to push readers closer to desiring God? Seeking redemption and draw me close to my creator? Is it kind YET truthful and defending righteousness?" If you had to question yourself, don't post it. I know Michelle made the news for doing a campaign to keep trans out of women's bathrooms. And then we all know Josh came out as a child molestor, and the Seewalds scolded him, so I'm just surprised the Seewalds commented on this. Thoughts?

God sends us terrorists to get us to worship him? and because we are peeing in the wrong bathrooms? By the way - she's also pandering a new book. thanks Anne, I needed a refresher on why I left organized religion.

I'm going to let her letter speak for itself. It is awesome, moving, and makes me angry at the same time. I will say though, that I am glad someone is taking a swing at that ass-backwards, straight from the 5th century B.C. excuse for a "newspaper," The Daily Fail. It's a shame that she wasn't permitted to come out on her own terms, but I am glad to see someone more lgbt sensitive take the spotlight from Caitlyn Jenner. http://www.windycitymediagroup.com/m/APPredirect.php?AID=54509
