I have been following Ethel for years. In this very short for her video she points out more mistakes of the Cass Review, the preformed biases, and the sneaky way the outgoing government managed to implement a ban on puberty blockers without following the laws. I know a lot of TERFS and other anti-trans people love to claim the UK is seeing the truth and banning trans care, but that is not the truth. Just like in the US, there are groups including political groups using everything they can to make it harder, but now the rest of the country is fighting back hard and getting treatment reinstituted. Just like the book banners in the US are now being pushed back and books being put back on shelves, trans care for minors is happening in the UK. Hugs. Scottie

Judge Strikes Down FL Ban On Trans Youth Healthcare
I am watching a video by Ethel of Essence of Thought debunking the Cass report and showing how the fear of trans people assaulting women were actively created to cause as much hate and anger at trans women as possible despite there being no evidence it is real or happening. The people who fought to get the message in the media admitted in writing that they had no evidence such violence or attacks had happened or were happening, but they thought it was a wonder why to stop the acceptance of trans people. That is their goal, make trans people the villain’s before they can be accepted like gay people are. Again they admitted this in writing, they felt they needed to move against trans people / kids because they lost the fight against gay people because they started to late they thought. Hugs. Scottie
The New York Times reports:
Key parts of a Florida law that bans gender transition care for minors and imposes hurdles on adults seeking transition care are unconstitutional, a federal judge ruled on Tuesday. Judge Robert L. Hinkle of Federal District Court in Tallahassee sided with advocacy groups and three families who had said that the law stripped them of parents’ rights to make medical decisions for their transgender children.
In a 105-page order, Judge Hinkle said that “gender identity is real” and that a “widely accepted standard of care” includes puberty blockers and hormone treatments that Florida unlawfully banned. “The state of Florida can regulate as needed but cannot flatly deny transgender individuals safe and effective medical treatment — treatment with medications routinely provided to others with the state’s full approval so long as the purpose is not to support the patient’s transgender identity,” Judge Hinkle wrote.

Judge Robert Hinkle, a Clinton appointee, first appeared here in 2014 when he ruled that Florida’s ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional.
A small victory for our trans community, but we need to get to a place where trans rights aren’t up to the whims of legislatures, the courts, and the whims of despotic southern governors.
Rights should not be ZIP code dependent.
Not all south. NH is about to pass a shitload of anti-trans legislation, trying to get people to get to MA or elsewhere if they can.
And Eastern Washington would gladly join in the tomfoolery if they could get away with it. We always joke that the Cascade Curtain keeps out the riff raff.
You will soon have the haters screech about the Judge condoning “gender confusion”.
Hey, you so-called experts. Trans folks are not “confused”. They know exactly who they are and what they need to do. If you truly care you’d STFU and get out of the way.
I know. Bashing Trans people is good for building up your brand within the Republican party and the Christian Right.
It’s amazing how some cis people can claim to know more about trans people and gender identity than trans people themselves. I mean, the sheer arrogance of it!
Hell, with what we go through, we transgender people often know ourselves better than most cisgender people will ever know themselves.
The only thing the screechers care about is imposing their hate on everyone else. It is not and never has been about doing what is in a child’s best interest.
Thanks, again, Judge Hinkle!
This is a good thing, until SQOTUS says otherwise

The Cass Review Is A TOTAL SH*TSHOW
This is a great take down of how bad the Cass report is that the anti-trans haters are right now loving to cite. Vaush even includes the fact that Cass herself disavows the report and says puberty blockers should be given out at younger ages than they are. The report is a shitshow. She almost comes out and admits she was paid to find ways to prevent, mock, and give reasons why kids who are claiming not to be the gender they were assigned at birth should be given gender affirming care per the trans best care guidelines, but instead should be sent to delaying / conversion therapy places. It is another open and shut case of the anti-trans right wing activists doing all they can to deny reality and roll back society to the 1950s. They don’t agree or want trans people, so no young person can know their gender. But they agree that every cis child knows their gender … so why not the kids that are different? Because they don’t want that, nor do they want to admit it. Face it, this is no different from the people that said homosexuals were a choice just to rebel against their parents, that same sex marriage was not a real marriage, that every gay or lesbian person just needed sex with the other sex to make them straight. It is just a denial of a reality they don’t like. They don’t want to admit medical science and society has moved past their comfort spot. Oh well, sorry but I don’t have to live my life to make you comfortable or happy. Hugs. Scottie
