A Texas law that bans gender-affirming care for transgender youth will go into effect as scheduled Friday.
The law will kick in September 1st despite a state district judge’s ruling last week that the law, Senate Bill 14, is likely unconstitutional and discriminates against transgender youth. That decision came after several families, advocacy groups and medical doctors filed a lawsuit to stop the act.
It was temporarily placed on hold, but the Texas Attorney General’s office quickly appealed the decision to the state Supreme Court, which ruled early Thursday the law will be in effect until a final resolution is reached.
“The Supreme Court of Texas has denied appellees' emergency motion for temporary relief in State of Texas v. Loe, allowing SB14 to go into effect on Sept. 1. The direct appeal in this case remains pending before the Court,” the state’s high court posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
Under the law, transgender people under 18 years old would be barred from accessing puberty blockers and hormone therapies, two of the most common forms of gender-affirming care.

I see SFC (Join to see) and MSgt are spewing their ignorance again. Guys you should really study the issue before proving to everyone else you do not know what you are talking about.. This continued willful ignorance is tantamount to sheer stupidity on your part.

The self mutation needs to stop and these children need psychiatric help before they are mature enough to make life altering decisions.

Too many studies have shown that these drugs are not as safe as originally thought, and that many Trans Youth go on the regret making the transition. Mutilating yourself is a terrible thing to do especially when you are really too young to fully understand who you really are. IMHO no permanent surgeries should be allowed until age 21.
