I would suggest you read this article before reporting it because it's from THE FEDERALIST. The article clearly lays out why the US Equality Act is a danger to gays.

And in the US, it's been pretty much only the conservative media that has allowed LGB and women a voice against gender ideology. The mainstream and Leftist US media has been bought by the gender lobby, literally bought.

I think that what we need to reiterate is that LGB people have rights in America. This is the trans “rights” act that is using our name to ramrod insane policy decisions. The backlash that is going to ensue from this is going to fall on LGB people even though this legislation doesn’t much of anything to do with us.

The Equality Act actively hurts gays.

And you're right that the backlash will fall directly on the LGB. I think that Americans who live in Blue Bubbles don't realize that there are still a lot of Americans, including and sometimes especially Americans "of color," who are still deeply uncomfortable with gay rights.

When their daughter is forced to let Madysyn, formerly Jaydyn, see her titties in the girls' locker room, there's going to be hell to pay and because the T have made the Equality Act about lgbT, a lot of the rage will fall on LGB.

Great article, thanks for sharing. Unfortunately I tend to not share articles from the Federalist because the liberal crowd won't take them seriously. But maybe this will help wake up more conservative straight people who are on the fence.

THE FEDERALIST can be absolutely full of crap, but they have been spot on about gender ideology and have given a voice to lots of liberals fighting gender ideology who the Lefty and mainstream media won't platform.

At this point, with the Equality Act to be voted on in the US House tomorrow, I will take whatever help I can get.

The vast majority of gender-dysphoric children—studies find 80-95 percent—no longer feel distressed by their bodies after puberty.

Do most adults forget what it's like to feel uncomfortable and unsure about yourself when we're young? If any kid that has identity issues needs a medical intervention, every middleschooler is going to be rushed to the hospital.

As a culture, we've become so attached to the idea of being comfortable at all times that we forget that life isn't all happiness and rainbows. Bad things happen, we feel like crap from time to time, and that is all 100% perfectly normal and to be expected. Having an identity crisis is a part of growing up, not a sign that something is severely wrong. To act like every feeling of inadequacy, discomfort, sadness, or any other undesireable emotion is the direct result of evil that must be stopped is a harmful ideal to follow that will result in a never ending battle against human nature.

But that's exactly what the gender industry that's driving all these laws want!

The gender industry wants to exploit kids going through the normal confusion of youth - to railroad them into expensive, unnecessary and harmful experimental medical treatment for profit.

I put a link on this sub that was removed but it was to a market analysis that said that the gender affirmation industry, or whatever they're calling it now, is going to be worth $1.5 billion dollars by 2026.

So much of this is about money made off of transitioning, but there's also something more sinister going on - we are being forcibly detached from our sense of biological sex - for what reason?
