I think Sunapee is the lake houses part and more east, so must be Newport/Claremont 🤔

Oh so that's what the exit 32 bumper sticker is lol

You are born a baby yeah, but not everyone stays one. Just because you never grew past that stage doesn't mean we're all stuck there

HB619 was a ban minors from transitioning, banning trans ppl from being discussed in school, changes the definition of conversion therapy to be only if it's explicitly against their will (a thing that can't really be proven and basically just allows conversion therapy again). It also explcititly excluded intersex mutilations from being banned, meaning "protect the children from surgeries" isn't true.
There's also a forced outing bill that iirc died on the table but it's also being referred to the education committee? As well as a failed o mm e that would require trans kids to use the bathroom/locker room on the birth certificate, and a failed "gender transition is child abuse" one.
I forgot but there was also one that was an attempt to make all residents use bathrooms according to their biological sex but then never even defined what that was

It was a really great turnout yesterday. Hoping the committees are smart and vote against intersex mutilation and making it easier for abusive parents to be abusive

Have you never heard of harassment or hate speech?

Everyone has pronouns they came free w your xbox

It's a direct quote from the article

Some people in these comments apparently 🥴

Funny how the "omg you're denying science" group is denying science regarding intersex babies

Actually there's many examples of botched circumcisions where they force the boy to be a girl bc docs fucked up. It's still an unconsented to genital surgery on infants that permanently alters sensitivity

Reminder abt the trans sanctuary bill, I mention 619 but I haven't got the spoons to tackle it in a way that isn't just ripping apart everything wrong w the bill. There's a script that can be copy/pasted to email your rep

Intersex infants cannot consent to genital mutilations, yet this bill explcititly allows it

You're right, infants should not be undergoing genital mutilations. Which is explcititly what this bill allows to occur.

You realize these have been used for years prior to them being used for trans kids right? They are literally prescribed to those who expierence puberty too early, and once it's safe and of age to have puberty, they go off it it and resume their puberty. Years dude. Longer than I've been alive even, and no one minded then

Why does it explcitity allows genital mutilations then? Doesn't seem to care much about the well being of children regarding sexual health when it explicitly allows abuse and mutilations to continue. Not touching the rest of that as you're clearly uneducated

I have a poem called Privilege as a Political Party that discusses how if you don't care you're making it known it's bc it doesn't affect you. Also, unfortunately there's a fourth bill much worse than 396, I have a sort of draft written up but it's more me calling out all the things wrong with it, it's pretty long. I'll see if I get get it shorter n sometime next month I'll post again

"Rare" yet there's at least two of us in these comments 🤭 no one has answered the question as to how those that can't be categorized into m or f would be placed, funny....

Both great statements. The use of biological sex is often assumed that there's only a few exceptions, but someone else did the math and we're looking at at max around 20k people whom this bill puts them in a grey area, we're as common as redheads

Thank you for helping out 💖 I tried to make it as easy as possible

Awe, thanks! I know I'm not a woman, never claimed to be.

Thank you all for getting this post up to 50 upvotes! It's not much but I know this post is also #4 most controversial for this month, but it's getting there. I've gotten at least 25 people I know personally to send an email, not including any who's done it from this post.
There's a few other reproductive rights bills, including the right to sterilization w/o hurdles, and the right to contraception that can also be advocated for! I don't have a script for those as I already sent an email a bit ago when some of them were first introduced, but they're pretty closely related

So you agree female isn't always XX then? There's XY woman with ovaries. Which, wow.... Means sex isn't binary! It's bimodal, two points that have an overlap. If it were binary there wouldn't be any overlap. What about those who don't have either or have both? Which bathroom does someone with a vagina and penis go to? Which prison would they put into? You'd be forcing men into the women's bathrooms, especially those who literally have peni and ovaries who have lived as men, are treated as such. Why do you want to make women uncomfortable?

Wow I can't believe you actually admitted it lmao. Admitting it is the first step, here's a quick reading to catch you up on modern science, it's really quite fascinating all the ways the body can develop, here's more in the most common ones

I've been for over six years, and have now had my diagnosis changed to "in remission"- I've never been better.
You, on the other hand, are denying factual science, as I am giving the actual definition. The definition of delusional, for your sake, "characterized by or holding false beliefs or judgments about external reality that are held despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary", and hope that you seek the care you need. I can't imagine how hard it must be to live with such delusions, that a whole population doesn't exist to you because you only passed middle school biology.
