“California has some of the strongest pro LGBTQ+ laws in the nation and with the bills signed today, our march toward equality takes an additional step forward,” (California governor) Newsom said Saturday.

Gavin Newsom also signed a bill that would help track LGBTQ+ healthcare, which begs the question - how will California track COVID statistics accurately if transgenders are included as if they were born the sex they ID as? COVID disproportionately affects males, so is CA going to skew the world's COVID stats for transgenders' feelz?

And what about gender fluids and non-binarie? What's the point in keeping health statistics, or any kind of statistics if people can identify into and out of biological sex?

Back when Bush the II was running for re-election and Gavin Newsom was mayor of San Francisco, Newsom decided to make gay marriage legal. Footage of joyous same-sex marriages in San Francisco flooded the airwaves. Well, that would have been great(!!!) except the US apparently was not ready for it, not even California (Prop 8 was proposed a few years later) and I have always thought that Newsom helped swing the election to Bush II.

Now, in the most crucial election of my lifetime, Gavin Newsom does it again - men in women's prisons - conservatives are Tweeting and people across the political spectrum are aghast.

Thanks, Gavin Newsom, thanks for getting a crazy Republican asshole re-elected president, AGAIN.

Prop 8 - California passed a bill to ban gay marriage a few years after Newsom legalized it in San Francisco https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_California_Proposition_8

This kind of thing just got killed in the UK, probably because 2% of our male prisoners identified as women and how easily this system was abused became obvious.

Our own govt advisors warned them exactly this would happen. You'll probably see it happening in California imminently.

I'm pretty sure there's some international law that states we have the right to single sex incarceration, not single gender. It's being ignored wholesale right now.

I wonder how bad things will get before the woke admit that this doesn't work. I expect a lot will double down on it. I've literally had transwomen and supporters say 'women commit sex offences too'.

According to the US rad fem group, the Women's Liberation Front (WoLF), the Geneva Conventions mandate prisoners be segregated by sex:

However, to Wokerati like Gavin Newsom and Scott Wiener, Transwomen ARE Women(!)

If anyone ever said to me "women commit sex offenses too" I would point out that more than 98% of sex offenders are men, and female sex offenders tend to be only accomplices to men, or hot teacher sleeps with underage, but willing, student (which I'm not excusing - I think those women should get the book too).

Also, women can't get anyone pregnant, whereas men can force women into pregnancy, so really, I would tell the TWAW crowd that until men can be forced to reproduce by women there is no comparison. I can't believe we would have to explain that in 2020, but here we are...The War on Women will never end.

Virtually all forcible sex attacks are committed by males. I've been spending decades reading the studies... I've not found in the UK on verified stranger sex attack by a solo woman on an adult woman. Plenty by men dressing as women.

Where you do find forcible female offenders, they are virtually all assisting male offenders.

It's a little different in prison, but then again most sex offences in women's prisons are committed by men.

Wow! I hadn't even thought to look there. They might claim this isn't a war, but it IS a war on women. And TWAM. We all know that. Newsom, Wiener, the lot of them need to use the biological definition of woman. We don't LARP in the real world. Geneva Convention -- this might be where it ends? Why should non-wartime treatment of prisoners be different? Very good call! I just looked:

In non-international armed conflicts, Protocol Il provides similar rules. It specifies that women who are arrested, detained or interned "shall be held in quarters separated from those of men and shall be under the immediate supervision of women except when members of a family are accommodated together" (Art. 5, para 2a). In the event that it is not possible to provide separate quarters it is essential in any event to provide separate sleeping places and conveniences. It should be noted that the foregoing provisions refer both to civilians deprived of their freedom and to captured combatants.[15 ]

Thanks for finding the actual Geneva Convention passages. So California is in violation.

Now New York state senate has a bill to put transgenders into women's prisons. Anyone who cares, please contact the New York state Senate ASAP and quote the Geneva Conventions.
