      Which ones are the routine infant circumcision guys? I forget...

      Edit: On that's right, America is the one who sacrifices approximately 100 infants each year at the altar of Actually, The Good Form Of Child Mutilation™ to the gods of "I want my kid's penis to look like mine" and "Skin is mega yucky and who can actually keep that stuff clean via hygiene practices anyway? Best to just remove it"

      Important, medically necessary gender affirming healthcare for all people, cis or trans, though. That's evil and dastardly. That kid with gynaecomastia needs to be denied the opportunity for surgical interventions because they should grow up knowing immense suffering and humiliation because, apparently, that's what you do when your primary concern is the wellbeing of children.

        If they can, they'll carve out exemptions for cis people and their preferred child mutilation. Cis people will not be effected unless they have to be.

          They're probably just waiting for their big Ryan White moment to present itself, you're right, but at the moment it appears that everyone is being thrown under the legislative bus wholesale.

          On the other hand, trans people and disabled people are sorta the canaries in the coalmine for these regressive values and policies but it never stops with the first marginalised group to be targeted because it inevitably expands to the next one and then the one following that; when bathroom hysteria started entering the mainstream there were more than a few prominent examples of butch lesbians and cis women who didn't fit the mold of societal standards for femininity being harassed and thrown out of bathrooms, including by the pigs. I imagine those incidents would only be trending upwards nowadays. Seems like the lack of any general outrage at these incidents which, ironically, make bathrooms far more unsafe than the supposed "safety risks" they are trying to prevent points to the fact that a lot of people are really comfortable with brutally strict gender policing and that leads me to think that trans people are the first in line but there's a whole queue of other groups that are going to be next.

          I don't know enough to feel certain about all this but either way it's still completely fucked.

            I'm not able to get on my computer or I'd be able to look up information, sorry. I thought most legislation was just targeting trans people, where possible? Like puberty blockers, for the purpose of transition. Right now This Tennessee law is in the Supreme Court. This only targets trans people. There are many similar laws in other states. Now, if they can't just target trans people, they might just ban puberty blockers wholesale, but that isn't what they're trying to do.

            But that wasn't from the legislative bus, there's no laws preventing butch women from using the bathroom. It's only trans people targeted by those laws, even if cis people got accidentally punished.

    Link to Chiitan's tweet

    Also of course Projekt Melody is in the replies of the tweet Chiitan links to. As rough as the VTuber community can be sometimes (because anime fans) it's really cool that one of the pioneers in the EN VTubing space is a staunch trans ally and a pan sex-positive queen

    "Um, ackshually the trans issue isn't recognised worldwide but also it's recognised across a large number of countries across the world through laws that seek to ban and prohibit trans people from presenting as their gender, from identifying as their gender including in official documents, and from accessing healthcare"

    I don't want a video game/porn addicted American telling what is and isn't an advertising fail. I've seen your adverts, it's the most abrasive loud obnoxious white dude shouting about products and catgirl-disgust its literally triggering. No Billy mayes I don't want easy glue, stop shouting at me 😭 it's like an abusive ex who keeps trying to get you to stay with him and won't let the conversation end.

    British adverts are so much better. When they try and be your friend and softly gaslight you into consumerism you can't maintain. Come on Britain, let's get you to bed cringe

    Wait is chiitan a girl? I thought she was a boy. Uncritical support for Chiitan.
