20+ U.S. States Ban Transgender Care


Listen Later

In today's episode, we update you on the concerning trend of states banning trans-affirming care for transgender youth and enacting laws and policies that discriminate against them.


As if it weren't an already daunting experience being trans in America, these actions represent a massive blow for trans rights and, unfortunately, force thousands of people to either let go of their hormone treatment or flee their states. 


Throughout this episode, you'll hear our thoughts on the damage these administrative decisions will cause to the trans community, the housing problem in blue states, the myths about detransitioners, the division these kinds of decisions promote in our country, and much more. 


In This Episode, You Will Learn:

  • How these new laws and policies affect the trans community (2:00)
  • The terrible situation these new laws and policies put transgender people in (7:20)
  • How we are in the process of dividing ourselves into two countries (11:40)
  • Affirming care saves lives (16:00)
