born a male, die a male. Get his genitals surgically mutilated to mimic a females? He’s a male with surgically mutilated genitals.

Same for females.

Delusionals. Those who support their delusions are enablers and grifters.

Does anybody claiming to be a Republican pay attention to who gets appointed to courts like this?

[jazusamo]

Check post #38, a FReeper in Iowa pretty much nailed that.

What good are legislators if they refuse to impeach and remove black-robe fascists for lawless conduct?

Time to muster Committees of Safety.

[Jim Noble]

When did judges become doctors?

Doctors can no more change someone's sex than judges can.

Don’t you have to be over 65 to receive Medicaid?? Those people rarely have sex anyway! just cut the thing off men, and sew it on women. Take a knife cut a hole in the men.

Wisconsin has an SC election coming up

So, which is it? You “treat” a disorder/disease, but the deviants insist that it is not a disorder.

How absolutely convoluted.

[fwdude]

Appeal to whom? This is the state’s highest court.

Fortunately, Iowa has a retainage vote for judges periodically. voters can kick them out. But after the damage is done.

I believe you mean Medicare. Medicaid is available to anyone who can prove they are poor.

[Freedom56v2]

Pathetic.

I’d expect to see this in California, New York, or Illinois, but it truly is surprising and pathetic to see this in IOWA!

But the ACLU argued that the womens’ medical providers determined the surgeries were medically necessary to treat their gender dysphoria.

So if the men, who think they must be women, have the surgery, it will make them understand that they are men?

If not, it doesn’t treat the dysphoria.
