“At the time, we did not believe that we would find ourselves where we are today,” Hemminger continued. “The transgender movement has ceased focusing on adults at all — nearly all of their efforts and those of their aligned special interest groups focus on minors. They push schools to teach radical gender ideology; they want biological men in women’s sports regardless of the consequences; perhaps most offensively, they support gender reassignment treatments for minors, often without the knowledge or consent of the parents, knowing full well these treatments are mostly irreversible.”

    Medical transition didn’t really exist in those days besides orchiectomy (which a more often done nonconsensually for other reasons), but crossdressing was in fact mentioned in Leviticus as forbidden

        I mean I think the Bible should be disregarded as a source of morality ofc, but we also shouldn’t whitewash its morality - agree that the laws it mentions are messed up and shouldn’t be relevant to how modern day people live our lives

      Sure sounds like squinting at the Bible one way or another to suit your agenda to me.
