Oklahoma judge upholds law banning gender-affirming treatments for minors
Oklahoman ^ | 10/6/23 | Chris Casteel

A federal judge in Tulsa ruled Thursday that the Oklahoma Legislature was justified in banning gender-affirming medical care for minors, saying there was no fundamental right to the treatment and that a new state law did not discriminate against transgender adolescents.

U.S. District Judge John F. Heil III said the law, enacted in May, is “rationally related to legitimate state interests because it regulates parental decision-making as to the Treatment Protocols based on the legislature’s interests in protecting children, public health, and integrity of the medical profession.

“This (is) an area in which medical and policy debate is unfolding, and the Oklahoma Legislature can rationally take the side of caution before permitting irreversible medical treatments of its children.”

exactly.

I WILL NOT compromise on this issue!

If a child’s reasoning is so impaired that they can’t sign a contract or be held liable for crimes as an adult or even legally smoke a cigarette, they certainly are not mature enough to mutilate their genitals.

Genital mutilation is not gender-affirming. The left would make Orwell jealous for using the term “gender affirming”.

Headline broken.

“Oklahoma judge upholds law banning genital mutilation, surgical sterilization, or cross-sex hormone poisoning for minors.”

There. I fixed it for you.

Judges need to get a grip on this Devil inspired onslaught against God’s creation. Kudos to this judge to stand fast against the Luciferian demons. There can be no doubt that this anti-humanistic assault is perpetrated by Lucifer’s deciples and that we are engaged a holy war. We can bash the Libs all we want, but the force behind their actions is demonic and we need to call a spade a spade.

Now this is a real judge compared to that left wing nut in New York heading the Trump trial.

It’s not gende affirming, it’s the opposite. Gender renouncing.

If reproductive organs do not define your gender how can removing them affirm your gender?
