How sad is this? A CONSERVATIVE publication publicizes the WoLF petition against men in California women's prisons. Where are our allies on the Left?

I've been saying this for years, but as a GNC/Bisexual woman who's been a longtime member of the LGB, women have no friends in either party. Democrats wish to erase all women's rights by codifying into law that men can be women (see Canada for the disaster that will cause) and Repubs want all women pregnant and in the kitchen cooking them dinner. I'm leaning Libertarian, but i'm open to other options if there are any.

I think the Libertarian candidate for president has also expressed support for gender ideology. I am almost positive about this, but will check and post here.

I have no issue with "supporting" trans people, I just don't want it codified into law. I believe it's already illegal to fire them or deny them housing and what not. I'm not sure it matters much anyway, businesses and women's orgs are already giving away women's rights and spaces anyway.

Here's the Libertarian Party platform on LGBT from its site.

I am almost positive that I saw video of Libertarian presidential candidate Jo Jorgensen voicing support for transgenders to be considered the sex they choose, but I can't find it.

"1.4 Personal Relationships

Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the government’s treatment of individuals, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration, or military service laws. Government does not have the authority to define, promote, license, or restrict personal relationships, regardless of the number of participants. Consenting adults should be free to choose their own sexual practices and personal relationships. Until such time as the government stops its illegitimate practice of marriage licensing, such licenses must be granted to all consenting adults who apply."

Ya, that sounds about right for libertarianism. Women are screwed.

I have many Libertarian tendencies, but then I think of what the results would be in real life and go NOPE.

Look at the Libertarians' platform: it does not take into account that allowing gender identity to have the same legal status as sex will completely screw women (and gay men).

And of course the Libertarian platform doesn't even use the word "sex" - so out the gate they've already discarded the reality of biological sex in favor of gender woo-woo.

Ya. I feel politically homeless.
