The bill starts out with a fabrication:
“Contemporary science recognizes that being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender is part of the natural spectrum of human identity and is not a disease, disorder, or illness”
Utter nonsense.
We’re headed back to the idea of a unitary state in which the government tells you what ideas are approved for belief, and which are heresy and will be subject to punishment.
CA statehood needs to be revoked. And all sharp objects removed from the state.
This is a dangerous bill.
The left says how open and tolerant they are, they eschew censorship, etc.
And there are people who struggle with sexual behavior or identity issues. Not everyone with same sex attraction is happy or gay, gay according to the dictionary definition. How can anyone want to ban information or treatment if someone wants to deal with a problem area in their lives?
These leftists would want all the information and treatment options available for any other condition. But if the condition is homosexuality and dealing with same then the left considers that a taboo subject.
And with the stranglehold the left has on the California government, they can pass ill advised laws.
In every generation, in every society, a band of fools always proves Romans 1:18-32 true once again.
It most certainly is a disorder. My daughter is battling with gender dysphoria and her life is hell. She wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Nothing “natural” about it. Her adrenal system is completely out of wack. Cancer is a naturally occurring phenomena, but we treat it!
Contemporary loiberal socialists do. Not the rest of us.
I’m trying to remember where else pseudo science was used to justify an amoral political ideology. And to silence even imprison and kill people. It will come to me. For some reason I keep thinking “socialist” was involved in the national description. And not just once.
Yes, and that is an excellent observation.
Some early implementors of sex changer operations came to the conclusion that it was impossible to change sex by any operation. And that the number of suicides connected with the “patients” was enough evidence for them to refuse to do the operations at all.
