Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) introduced a bill this week to legally erase transgender people, entitled the “Defining Male and Female Act of 2024.” He claimed that the bill will stop what he called the Biden administration’s attempt to “replace biological sex with dangerous radical gender ideology.”

The bill is a long list of terms and definitions, where words like “father” and “girl” are defined with the words “male” and “female.” Those two words are then defined as “an individual who naturally has, had, will have, or would have, but for a congenital anomaly or intentional or unintentional disruption, the reproductive system that at some point produces, transports and utilizes [sperm or eggs for male or female, respectively] for fertilization.”

    They are going to need something to distract from the economic misery all the dumbfucks voted for are going to be getting (along with everyone else).

    I mean, if donvict really does tariffs and deportations, we are going to be in the Great Depression 2.0.

    Punching down on trans (and gays/lesbians, and POC, and women, and non-xtians, and liberals, and foreigners that they aren’t already deporting) and doing stupid things like trying to get “the” bible being taught in our schools will become priority #1 if the economy goes totally pear-shaped.
