L.G.B.T. activists mobilized a fast and fierce campaign that included a protest outside the White House on Monday to say transgender people cannot be expunged from society, in response to an unreleased Trump administration memo that proposes a strict definition of gender based on a person’s genitalia at birth.
The existence of the draft memo, the administration’s latest effort to roll back the recognition and protection of transgender people under federal civil rights law, was reported by The New York Times on Sunday morning.
Within hours, the hashtag #WontBeErased circulated on social media. By Sunday evening, a rally for transgender rights took place in New York; another took place on Monday in Washington.
With the White House as their backdrop, speakers repeated the phrase “We will not be erased,” which has become a rallying cry against the proposal. The 45-minute rally, attended by what appeared to be at least several hundred people, repeatedly referred to the coming midterm elections and encouraged people to vote.

The irony.
The only thing being erased is their God-given genitals, and they’re doing that to themselves.

Trump doesn’t care if you boys want to wear dresses and grow boobs, or that you girls want to have an addadicktomy, and grow a beard, his plan is simply about security, census, and record keeping.
Otherwise there will have to be carve-outs for every level of “gender”, special laws and entitlements, and a new dictionary full of “preferred pronouns”.
What you do in private is your own, perverted, business.
How many of these “transgender” people are there? It can’t be more than .0005% of the population. And they act as if they are 50%. What horse crap.
"...won’t be erased..."
Can’t erase what doesn’t exist
Yeah exactly. Cher was worried that Chaz is going to be sent to an internment camp. What an overreaction.

The only erasing being done is by them and their “doctors”.
Didn’t the so-called “White Nationalists” at Charlottesville yell “You will not erase me!” which is pretty much the same thing?

And not the kind where you give booze to an alcoholic.

On a lighter note, apparently that traitor, Bradley Manning, had his “de-Manning” operation last weekend. He’s now officially a eunuch.
They’re really reporting on Twitter trends? Real hard-hitting stuff right there.
President Trump needs to start holding evening chats or just simply address the American people on topics like this. Be the adult in the room and explain the challenge and solution. Gender is one, the border, etc. Make these serious, sober discussions, not political theater. The issue of gender is perfect one to start with. We need some common sense discussion on the topic. We are born male or female, be identified with that genetic truth. If people want to identify otherwise as adults, that is fine but for legal and practical purposes, they still care their birth reality.
