About time...
The supplemental insurance carrier my former employer has chosen (I pay 100% of the insurance premium)) proudly announced during a seminar describing the change of insurance HMO’s that they cover gender transformation up to $25,000.
I’m sure few if any individuals covered by this new plan requested or require this ridiculous coverage.....which I’m certain is reflected in our insurance premiums.
I don't quite understand the scope of this ruling. It claims it covers all of America's 900,000 doctors, but I imagine very few practice "gender transition." Is it saying that doctors and hospitals are now protected from being involved in any way if they choose not to be?
For sure, any doctor who practices or specializes in "gender transition" must already be twisted.
Thanks for the post-——and for introducing me to The Becket Fund.

Any endocrinologist may be asked to provide opposite-sex hormone treatment to a “transgender” patient. Any surgeon may be asked to perform a mastectomy on a “trans-man.” A cosmetic surgeon may be asked to perform surgery to make a man’s features look more “feminine.”
A Texas state court, ruling only for Texans?
A federal District Court or Appeals Court located in Texas, applying to the entire country?
Why keep it a secret?
Ping to article
IOW, they cover the initial consultation and some hormone shots.
Once Barry the homo and the manly Moochie Obama are out of the White House the pressure to promote cross dressing, gender-bending, and sex change medical procedures will go away.
Thank goodness. Any such surgery is merely cosmetic.
If everything went right, you’d need an anesthesiologist, urologist, and a plastic surgeon. you’d probably need a psychiatrist. If things went wrong, others would be pulled in. Then many nurses would have to be involved throughout. Many people who are opposed could have been forced into it.
This is a federal district court in Texas and not a Texas court. It makes a difference.
If you are a federal contractor, your company gets extra points / preference for contracts if you meet all the items on the Out and Equal Index and other far left liberal checklists, which includes accommodating and supporting transgenders.
So, in other words, the "conservative" position is now that mutilating children under the influence of their parents' mental illnesses is a "personal decision".
Mmm..kay.
No secret.it’s at the link “filed a lawsuit”

GOOGLE: Alcohol flush response: It occurs in Oriental Asians and thereby American "Indians," descendants of Siberian hunter groups.
Alcohol flush reaction is a condition in which an individual develops flushes or blotches associated with erythema on the face, neck, shoulders, and in some cases, the entire body after consuming alcoholic beverages. The reaction is the result of an accumulation of acetaldehyde, a metabolic byproduct of the catabolic metabolism of alcohol, and is caused by an acetaldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency.
The FIRST Americans were Caucasians. Their remains were still around in the traps they set for mammoths. Those human skulls were OVAL, like all Caucasians.
"American Indians" have ROUND heads, like ALL Oriental Asians. No round heads in those ancient animals traps...only the oval ones.
Asian Caucasians (Indians, Pakistanis) do NOT have that deficiency. Neither do black Africans or African Arabs. That deficiency is purely Asian ORIENTALS.
Nobody should EVER be doing gender reassignment on any child ever.
NO child is mature enough to make that kind of decision and they are messing with hormones etc that will affect the child for life.
There is NO going back or undoing the damage that kind of procedure can cause.
NO parent should ever be allowed to demand it for their child. The child is not a piece of property or a pet to do what they want with.
Should have been in the main article’s very first sentence’s very first clause.
