Gee, I wonder if that influences the majority.

A Tennessee state law banning gender-affirming care for minors can stand, the US supreme court has ruled, a devastating loss for trans rights supporters in a case that could set a precedent for dozens of other lawsuits involving the rights of transgender children.
The case, United States v Skrmetti, was filed last year by three families of trans children and a provider of gender-affirming care. In oral arguments, the plaintiffs – as well as the US government, then helmed by Joe Biden – argued that Tennessee’s law constituted sex-based discrimination and thus violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment. Under Tennessee’s law, someone assigned female at birth could not be prescribed testosterone, but someone assigned male at birth could receive those drugs.

Trans “rights” - the rights to sexually abuse and mutilate a minor.
I could only read until the mandatory payment section. Do we know the breakdown of supremes?
This is a massive victory for common sense, and will encourage more states and jurisdictions to enact similar anti-trans insanity laws.
Perhaps the worm has turned.
Democrat, hands off the children.
Vanderbilt University Medical Center stands to lose $$$$$$
The 6-3 ruling is likely to have a broad impact as 24 other states have already enacted laws similar to the one in Tennessee, which bars gender transition surgery, puberty blockers and hormone therapy for youth.The court was divided on ideological lines, with the six conservatives in the majority and the three liberals in dissent.

Gender affirming. What a lie. Trans surgery is the opposite of gender affirming.
I grieve so much for the victims, but really think the societal tide is going out on this madness
Amy hasn’t completely gone to the dark side yet.
Headline broken.
“US supreme court upholds Tennessee ban on CHILD GENITAL MUTILATION and CHEMICAL CASTRATION.”
There. I fixed it for you.
Finally some semblance of reason.
This is excellent!
Gee, I wonder if that influences the majority.
6-3.
>> a devastating loss for trans rights supporters
An encouraging victory for Tennessee children
Currently any perception of doubt, most often arising from social contagion, is exploited by teachers and counselors to direct children and young adults into an ever-shifting idea of personal awareness where internal, subjective ideas eradicate the biological realities of sex. So social contagion becomes a legal form of “grooming”.
In Great Britian public health saw a 17-fold rise in gender dysphoria in just the ten years since 2011-2012. A similar phenomenon has been noted in the US for a decade-to-decade increase of 4400% from 2011 to present. Legitimate scientific research would first focus on the question of why before prescribing any treatment, but not in this country.
6-3 with the usual three neurotic women dissenting.
The leftist sites and blogs resemble stirred up anthills now.
