@NYCHealthCommr @nycHealthy @SRLP Caring for the well-being of this community would mean banning medical and surgical “GAC” for minors. Literally “conversion therapy.”

“Gestating parent”—so how would we rewrite a typical (alas) NY Times crime headline: “87 year old formerly gestating parent bashed over her (or his?) head with broomstick?”

[Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok]

This is INSANE

Democrats NY have passed a bill changing terms such as "mother" and "father" to "gestating parent" and "non-gestating parent."

It will now head to Gov Kathy Hochul to be signed into law.

Democrats are destroying what it means to be a mother and father.

@equedia @BillboardChris I’m just trying to imagine how those of us who are grounded in reality are going to be able to fill out required forms without…lying.
I’m already supposed to check off my “sex assigned at birth.” I can’t do it! I won’t do it!

@jgitchell @panagis21 I’m sure you didn’t mean “bona fide” as word play, but I did read it that way! It was humerus.

@ChildrenNeedUs_ I’d love to hear a recording!

Vincent Munster, a high-level researcher at NIAID, was arrested yesterday for smuggling potential pathogens into the U.S.
He's also a co-author of Ron Fouchier's famous revised 2012 paper "Airborne Transmission of Influenza A/H5N1 Virus Between Ferrets."

@threadreaderapp unroll so I can show this to my husband and soul mate Peter Sandman, who STILL doesn't "Do X!"

@GCAnonymous2 @USSR2Europe @_CryMiaRiver @YouTube GAC is the ultimate conversion therapy. The word “affirming” is the tell.

@BillboardChris @elenoresturko Being against hormonal and surgical “treatment” of child gender dysphoria is a love crime, not a hate crime.

As Chris always says: Children cannot consent to puberty blockers (etc.).

@LeorSapir @threadreaderapp unroll this extremely important thread, with its crucial sources. The impact of external framing decisions on the victims’ attitudes needs major emphasis.

@libsoftiktok Wu-hoo!

THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who helped - especially @mattjcan and @BillboardChris.

I appreciate it so much. We have to be able to state the truth.

Men are not women.
