Deets On Trans Rights Are Human Rights
Trans men are men.
Trans women are women.
Trans people are people.
And they deserve our respect as fellow human beings.
Sadly, instead of protecting our people, the right targets them - the right dehumanizes them.
Conservatives’ inability to grow as humans is threatening the lives and the mental well-being of the Trans community.
Transgender teens are 7.6% more likely to commit suicide compared to their cisgender, heterosexual peers.
While Conservatives obsess over children’s genitals, gender-affirming care actively saves youth lives.
Gender-affirming care decreases Trans youth suicide risk by 73%!
Let me repeat that for those in the back.
GENDER-AFFIRMING CARE DECREASES TRANS YOUTH SUICIDE RISK BY 73%!
Further, of those who transition, only 1% willfully de-transition.
And what do physicians get for providing this life-saving care?
Rather than ensuring children have access to life-saving care, Republican legislators nationwide are drafting bill, after bill, after bill to eliminate access to this care entirely - with the aim of forcing de-transitions.
If we want to save lives, we need to accept lives - for who they are.
We need to secure access to gender-affirming care for all who need it - no matter their ability to pay.
If we want to be pro-life, let’s start by protecting the lives of Trans children.
And to do that, we have to ensure they receive the medical care that they need and the support system they deserve.
#ProtectTransKids
We. The. People.
