A transgender person who was born a male but now identifies as a woman, fled the United States of America for the Netherlands, apparently believing there would be greater freedom there. This same person was recently interviewed and complained about being harassed by Muslim migrants in the Dutch country. How many times have we seen something like this before? People on the left who flee the United States of America looking for something better, almost never find what they are seeking. In fact, they usually end up learning a hard lesson about how much better life is in the United...

A California city is moving to enact a permanent ban on new drive-thru restaurants, spurred on by a group of vocal locals who have organized to oppose a potential new In-N-Out location. While many other cities (and states) openly court the privately owned, Southern California-founded burger chain in hopes of attracting its business, Culver City isn’t swayed by the scent of animal-style fries and mustard-grilled Double-Doubles. The stand-alone city within Los Angeles County voted on Monday to extend a recently enacted 45-day moratorium on any new drive-thrus for another 10.5 months, giving city officials a long enough runway to draft...

A West Virginia girl who fought back after a male on her track team harassed her and threatened to rape her says her school became a sea of hostility after she stood up against putting males in female sports. Adaleia Cross attends Bridgeport High School in West Virginia. Her school district was at the center of a recent Supreme Court ruling that said males cannot play in women’s sports. Although the ruling was a victory for her position, it came at a cost. In January, her parents wrote an opinion piece in USA Today explaining the sexual harassment by the...

University of California, Riverside associate professor Brandon Robinson argued that a sexual identity label like "gay" or "lesbian" "harms trans people" and called for abolishing sexual identities altogether. While promoting the book "Trans Pleasure: On Gender Liberation and Sexual Freedom," Robinson, a member of the Gender & Sexuality Studies Department, spoke with UC Riverside about gender identities on Friday. Robinson, who uses they/them pronouns, explained the importance of moving beyond "gender essentialism" from sexual identities, which the professor claims can be built around gender "stereotypes." "If being 'gay' means being a man attracted to men, it assumes 'man' is a...

The Presbyterian Church (USA), the largest Presbyterian denomination in the United States, has passed a measure expressing support for body-deforming sex-change surgeries for youth exhibiting gender dysphoria. At a plenary session for the PCUSA's 227th General Assembly held last week, delegates voted 441-30 in favor of an overture called GEN-02, also known as “On Access to Healthcare.” The rationale for the overture describes so-called “gender-affirming care” as “medically necessary and evidence based for the well-being of many transgender, non-binary, and gender- expansive people who experience symptoms of gender dysphoria or distress that result from having one’s gender identity not match...

Tyler Toler has suffered through the trifecta of bacterial STIs: chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis. While the corresponding itching, burning, and rash felt bad enough, the pain of treatment and the social fallout that often followed were worse. Toler dreaded the awkward conversation with his partners, admitting he may have exposed them to an infection. “Some people are like, ‘Yeah, cool, thank you for letting me know,’” Toler said. “And then there’s some people that think you’re the dirtiest person on the face of the planet.” ...

Massachusetts US District Judge Myong Joun struck down the Trump Administration's attempt to disallow public service workers from receiving debt relief for working with employers that are deemed to have a "substantial illegal purpose." The Judge said that "the Biden Administration classified student debtors working with organizations like USAID as eligible for debt forgiveness. Later evidence indicating that some of these employers were engaged in efforts to promote illegal immigration and terrorists cells cannot undo the promised debt relief. Trying to single out these activities for punitive action can be seen as an impermissible suppression of their right to freedom...

How am I attempting to raise my kids as homosexuals, you ask? Well, it’s simple: I learned how from watching straight people enforce a sexual orientation on their children without ever saying “straight.” One of the most amazing things about cisgender straight people is that most of them think they don’t have a sexual orientation or a gender identity. A major premise of Florida’s recently passed “Don’t Say Gay” bill is that children should be sheltered from discussions of sexual orientation, and in many ways, I, a queer mom married to a woman, actually agree with this. That also goes...
