cis autodrag posted:I would never write down anything related to my gender on a piece of paper in Alabama regardless of context. Plenty of trans people have been murdered by bigoted clinical staff who saw information they didn't need to see. It's an issue we're struggling with mightily in how to properly store gender information in our EMR. More about this please. I have not heard of clinical staff attacking transgender people. I know of medical professionals who disapprove and disapprove loudly, but none that have resorted to violence.

I recall one a couple years back of a young trans girl, like age 11 or close, beaten to death by her own father. These are always super depressing to read. Brazil in particular is extraordinarily hostile to Trans women.

Huge! https://twitter.com/TheAdvocateMag/status/874817460658094080 Who she is facing off against Bob Marshall quote:In December 2016, Marshall introduced a resolution calling porn a “public health hazard like smoking.” In December 2015, Marshall introduced a bill to override federal LGBT protections. In November 2014, Marshall badly lost his bid for the US House despite a glowing endorsement from Phyllis Schlafly. In June 2014, Marshall claimed that all charities will lose their tax exempt status following the legalization of same-sex marriage. In February 2014, Marshall filed an amendmentthat would grant Virginia state legislators the right to claiming standing in marriage lawsuits. In September 2013, Marshall petitionedthe US Supreme Court to overturn Virginia’s legalization of sodomy. In May 2012, Marshall attempted to block the appointment of an openly gay state judge because the nominee has “an illegal husband.” In 2011, Marshall claimed it is a felony for a state office to fly the rainbow flag. Marshall has also called on Virginia to issue its own currency, and has claimed that God punishes women who have abortions by giving themdeformed children. After the DADT repeal bill passed, Marshall tried tohave gays banned from the Virginia National Guard. Perfect woman to take him on.

A bill about pornography. A bill that’s saying that ISIS is bad, and by the way, he couldn’t even get ISIS is bad passed in a Republican Subcommittee?! Are you kidding?

Ignore this post if you're having a lousy day. http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovemen...use_gay_couples Welcome to the most heinous thing this week, in a state with one of the worst foster care systems. So bad it was recognized in a federal class action lawsuit that kids leave the system worse than when they entered. This comes on the heels of this: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/chi...ate-texas-house Further privatization and enfranchisement of the groups that want to discriminate against women and put GLBTQ kids out to die on the street. Pregnant teen who wants an abortion? too bad. Pregnant teen having severe complications and in need of lifesaving care? die slut. Unpregnant teen who wants birth control? ha. Want to get vaccinated? well, my religion says to pray for you when you get polio. Want a public school instead of insane religion-based education? Go live on the street Don't want conversion therapy? idgaf Are you jewish? No baby for you, you kill and eat christian babies right? Raped on the street? well, we'll get you medical care eventually. Rape kits are a liberal conspiracy against men. Single woman? Go find and marry a man, harlot. They're taking a 'you can't say we're discriminating against group X, because this bill targets anybody at the discretion of the foster care provider' approach. It's outsourced grassroots evil. Mostly targeted toward children.

In essence, they're saying that if there's no harm, they're not going to call a foul.

CommieGIR posted:"Sure it could cause harm. It hasn't yet, and its totally not constitutional" In a vacuum, I could understand it - I think the reasoning is "just because it might lead to someone getting hurt doesn't mean that it will," which in isolation I think is a fair enough line of thought. But it's loving Mississippi.

that's some serious escalation on that bishop's part. it'll be interesting to see what rome does, if anything. while francis has been trying to move the church away from these "culture war" issues, the fact remains that the majority of the holy see cares far more about men having sex with men in a loving monogamous relationship than they do about poor people. i doubt we'll see many more dioceses doing this, but i also doubt we'll hear any bishops outside of san francisco condemning it (and even then i'm pretty sure the current bishop of san francisco is incredibly conservative, what with most holy redeemer existing there and the bishops wanting to get rid of its pro lgbt policies). still, bad for lgbt catholics in the long run. and the bit about no catholic funerals makes me think about the jesuits in rome giving a homeless transgender woman who died a funeral, complete with her chosen name and correct gender. what a difference sj makes

Some good news for a change: In the run-up to Germany's 2017 federal elections, three of the six significant parties (SPD, FDP, and Greens) have pledged to make full marriage equality a mandatory part of any coalition agreement they'll enter. The only meaningful opposition stems from the CDU, who seemingly opposes as much out of inertia as actual conviction (polls suggest about a 50/50 split on the issue even among their own members). Fortunately, any realistic ruling coalition will contain at least one of these three parties (most likely either CDU+SPD or CDU+FDP(+Greens)), which doesn't leave the CDU anywhere else to turn. So from the looks of it we'll finally manage to get this done within the next legislative period.

BigRed0427 posted:Welp, this won't end well. As someone who lives in Chicago, is pro-Palestinian, and is dating someone who attended and identifies greatly with the Dyke March until today, I guess I'm wondering what the responsibility is of spaces like the Dyke March or Pride in general to sanction specific political stances that, frankly, don't seem to have a ton to do with the topic at hand? Does an event intended to celebrate LGBT women have a responsibility to go down the list of every prevailing political debate and declare an allegiance, as though you were picking out sponsors? Is there space at Pride events for LGBT people who are pro-Israel or. god forbid, conservative, or do they need to plan out their own weekend? Not even to mention that what took place here came largely from a place of ignorance about what constitutes Israeli vs. Jewish iconography, but the activists who kicked those people out likely felt empowered to do so by having the official backing of the event's organizers.
