The new law that bans gender-affirming care for minors also mandates that adult patients seeking trans health care sign an informed consent form. It also requires a physician to oversee any health care related to transitioning, and for people to see that doctor in person. Those rules have proven particularly onerous because many people received care from nurse practitioners and used telehealth. The law also made it a crime to violate the new requirements.

Another new law that allows doctors and pharmacists to refuse to treat transgender people further limits their options.

    I highly doubt the adult trans community supports the anti-trans movement, so this doesn’t really apply.

    They are just also victims of a fascist law because the fascists (likely intentionally) wrote it vaguely enough that it has broad ramifications.

    EDIT: It’s right in the title. I am a boob.

    EDIT 2: I am being brigaded. Weird. Don’t people have better things to do?

      I don’t see how the title implies what you said was false? Sure they were surprised about this specific law, but it’s not like they didn’t think those leopards were gonna eat their face as soon as the young were devoured. This seems kind of victim blamey to me too.

      The full leopards ate my face quote is about people voting for the leopards eating faces party, which I doubt trans people in Florida were doing
