The biggest transgender survey in the US is underway. Here’s why it’s important

Federal surveys like the US Census are gradually taking their transgender respondents into account. But they rarely ask specific questions unique to trans life: Have they been denied access to reproductive health care? Is their life better than it was before they came out as trans?

Enter the US Trans Survey, the largest survey in the country specifically geared toward trans and nonbinary people. Conducted by the National Center for Transgender Equality (NCTE) and open until November 21, its results will be quoted by journalists, academics and legislators for the next five years.

The survey is especially important now, given the intense focus on the rights of trans Americans in political arenas. Trans residents of the US remain an understudied population that represents half a percent of all Americans – there are an estimated 1.6 million trans people 13 and older living in the US, according to the Williams Institute, UCLA Law’s LGBTQ think tank – but continue to be targeted by lawmakers.

The "survey" is open to anyone. Sounds like it's time to crash a survey.

Good, CNN, pollute the world even more

Reprobate minds must push reprobate agendas

The principalities and powers of this dark world drive them.

Targeted by lawmakers?

I think they are referring to some states, which have put restrictions or bans on transgender surgeries for minors.

I guess if you are liberal, you consider such laws to be “targeting” or “discrimination” against transgenders.

Well, we know that recently, some “trans” Tik Tok personality, visited Biden at the White House. And Biden stated that he opposes any regulations of any kind, on these transgender medical procedures.

So the battle lines are drawn, that you are some sort of bigot, against transgender, if you would like to see any sort of restrictions on these procedures.

Burglary laws “target” people who want to take others’ property from their homes. How hateful is that?

If you constantly have to tell us why things are important, they probably aren’t that important

Or they are just self-focused drama queens.

This survey sounds just as unbiased as the media.

I have no idea what “reproductive health care” might mean in this context...or, any context, really. We live in a time when words can mean whatever the person speaking them wants them to mean.

Why is time wasted on this garbage? Why is mental illness celebrated?

Why is a news report trying to tell us what is important.

They don’t even know how to pretend it’s not propaganda anymore.

So, we’re supposed to upset societal norms for less than one half of one percent of the population - and many of those are probably just following the fad.

It means cutting one’s genitalia off in this context.

Again, Americans must take back the English language that has been corrupted by the leftist wokesters.

Therefore, we must dump the phrase “transgender” which means nothing, and replace it with the more accurate term - “fake gender.”

Similarly, there are no “transwomen” or “transmen.” They are more properly referred to as “fakewomen” and “fakemen.”

Have they been denied access to reproductive health care?

To leftists, "reproductive heath care" means castrating a healthy little boy or ripping the uterus out of a healthy little girl. Also, it means killing a healthy living human fetus.

Do the questions in the survey make those things clear?

OF COURSE NOT.
