If you've been following the rapid progress we've made with CRISPR, mRNA, the use of viruses to modify genetics, etc. you understand that we'll be able to perform gender alteration at a genetic level, probably within some of our lifetimes. The question is when, not if.

Did they have to put out their creepiest weirdo for this big speech? It's probably the best those twisted f*cks could find 😂

Absurdity of the statement aside, it is a choice to have this guy deliver that message

They're not banning it for themselves.

What is he so scared of?

They picked the weakest most isolated group to pick on because they know it’s harder for that group to fight back. That’s all this is.

The unfuckable category. Prolly cross dressing at home.

Won on Roe being overturned, just next culture war BS- shameful to worry so much about controlling other peoples bodies.

This is the sort of foul nonsense which is promoted by doing what they can to kill science. As any Ob/Gyn, Geneticist[1], or life scientist will tell you: sex is more complex than binary, gender is more complex than sex. @#$!! [1] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_chr...

Republicans don't believe in frogs.

Yup

Yeah, yeah, fine, just release the unredacted Epstein files, dipshit.

Wtf

Idiots are Idiots. Idiots can never become smart.

When all else fails, fall back on tired old culture wars shite 🙄

Good lord, and you know there are a bunch of bros in the ante room saying "sick opening line, dude"

Not to mention these statements contradict what we know about the anatomical differences, and changes at adolescence, that occur within the human species. As I noted with a friend when they claimed the XX/XY binary was "basic biology," "yes, but it's not advanced biology."

HHS is a genocidal operation.

This guy sounds like he's really not too sure if he wants to transition.

If children are innocent and need our protection, why are Republicans protecting the pedophiles in the #EpsteinFiles? What this is about is forcing your beliefs on and controlling other people's rights when it comes to raising their own children.

At first glance I thought this was an SNL cold open. I'd like to wake up from this nightmare now pretty please.

The Bible told me so.

Dog whistles. Wedge issues that are not really issues, but repeated enough can be forcibly morphed into one.

Christofascist Freaks. All of them.

All they do is lie.

fucking nailed it. well-put

"And bottoms can never become tops," he later added.

Personally I see Transgender Care as Mental Health Care. What is the mental effect feeling one is trapped in the wrong body? Has any of these anti-transgender care advocates ever researched the process for transgender care involving psychologists and medical experts that they obviously are not?

thank you

O pointy birds, o pointy pointy, anoint my head, anointy-nointy,

Perfect comment @katelynburns.com !

Binary thinking for ignorant hypocrites like Johnson is always an attempt to simplify a world too complex for them to understand. Do I have start naming famous people born with additional divergent genitalia? No. This is all about unconscionable cruelty masquerading as piety to comfort hypocrites.

"It is the natural order of things, eternal and unchangeable and cannot be denied. But also so fragile that it needs the iron fist of the state to enforce it."

It's Magnus Hirschfeld all over again.

Bingo

But don’t you wish the world was that clear and simple? Does being stupid make one happy?

Hey! That’s my line!!

Good one. Sharp!

And gay men are men and gay women are women. Husbands who have wives and children but become gay, are men. Women who have husbands and children but become gay are women. Relationships are flexible but physiology is fixed. /s

Gee. Talk to my niece now, nephew.

Exactly. Despite the “basic biology” language they talk about sex and gender like they’re metaphysical truths, so they can dismiss trans and intersex people as unnatural deviations that *shouldn’t* be accounted for

Yeah, its a pseudo-theological Truth. It's an idea, belief, or framework that is decided to be the standard, and everything else works backwards from it. It's a construction of reality from willful or spiteful, stubborn certainty

Essentially they believe things that don't align with reality, and it makes them uncomfortable with cognitive dissonance. So they try to make everyone follow their beliefs in an attempt to sooth and resolve their cognitive dissonance regardless of the detriment to anything or anyone in their way.

👏👏👏

Assholes

This man has a closet.

They literally sent the saddest looking sap up there to spout this BS….

From the crowd that thinks RFK Jr should lead HHS. Fuck off, assholes. Fuck off.

Still can’t fathom why they care about this. People need to get a life. Let people do what they want and butt out. Mind your own business. Old fashioned but correct advice.

they seem to miss the widespread use of cosmetic surgery that attempts to alter the existing gender appearances of many in this administration

If republicans believe Men are Men - they need to stop telling other men they're "not a real man" or "not a man yet."

even for trans ppl who never pursue surgical avenues of bodily modification. My point is,regardless of how you might present to the world,scientifically, your identity is valid. If you experience GD + never take a single hormonal dose, you're still as legitimate as someone 99 years into transition.

Babies are babies. They can never become adults. Caterpillars are caterpillars. They can never become butterflies. Uranium is uranium. It can never become lead. Etc.
