That was disturbing news to Angelica Jadunandan, who moved to New York from Florida with her two young daughters three years ago. Her older daughter, who is eight, is transgender, and Angelica wanted to move them to a safe blue state—somewhere her family’s medical care would not be called into question. New York is a self-declared “sanctuary state” for trans people. It seemed like a good option.
Blair white, the fucking republican poster child for “one of the good ones,” said she knew when she was 5. This is not a controversial point and the fact that you can’t be bothered to look into it further than your own intuition is not our fault. Jumping into a debate without at least glancing at the data is moronic, and saying “nah” when actually presented the data is incomprehensibly stupid.
Everyone else covered the “medical change” stuff so I’ll let that go.
