It's charities now too. Just today I wanted to donate to one, but figured I should check all the information just to be sure.

Good thing I did, since not only do they support this movement, they also somehow seemed to think that people can identify as intersex.

Needless to say I'll be looking elsewhere to spend my money.

Yes. Tons of benign sounding organizations are pushing this crap behind the scenes. Organizations like Planned Parenthood are tainted forever in my eyes, since they're pandering to the gender-bender BS.

I get envelopes asking for handouts from both PP and the ACLU at least monthly. Back when PP was particularly under the gun, I sent them some money. Several years ago some cheerful enby-looking kids with clipboards on the corner asked me to support the ACLU and so now I'm forever on their mailing list because I gave them $50 one time, and a little more here and there.

It's election season and I tend to get a little loose with my money to support organizations I like during this time. Instead of giving them money, I sent back a note. For PP I sent them a note of appreciation for how they served me personally in the past, but said I couldn't support them any longer due to their providing inadequately tested gender-affirming care. For the ACLU I told them I'd make another donation if they ever are brave enough to support women's rights against the trans activist agenda.

It really makes me cringe that they waste resources on treatments outside reproductive health, STDs, birth control; etc.

Exactly my thoughts. Straight up has nothing to do with reproductive health. I was so shocked to find they were providing it.
