Gender-affirming treatments save lives. Politicians who deny trans people, including trans youth, access to healthcare have blood on their hands.

"FSC provided a statement to the conservative Washington, D.C. paper, pointing out that the proposed age verification bills are “ineffective, a disaster for privacy, and blatantly unconstitutional.”" xbiz.com/news/271781/right-win

RT @JinkxMonsoon: Tell me—WHAT DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE TO MOTIVATE THIS BILL?! None?! It's just a diversion from their lies and corruption? Oh—ok. Just checking.

RT @mikestabile: “These laws are really not about controlling minors’ access to violent pornography. In the conservative world view, pornography is information about LGBTQ identity, abortion, gay marriage”

Great piece on the censorship craze by ⁦@hallielieberman⁩

RT @qirtaiba: And why has @RonWyden’s Invest in Child Safety Act been forgotten? Unlike either of the other laws mentioned, it would invest real money – $5bn – into both enforcement of existing laws and prevention. Yet it attracted virtually no interest from lawmakers.

"it's just really despicable that in Wyoming, this has become an argument of whether we want to continue marrying off girls to their rapists." newsweek.com/wyoming-ending-ch

From /SESTA and the (UK) to and , it's becoming increasingly common for governments to use children as pawns to push anti-porn, anti-sex worker, and anti-free speech legislation, none of which protect children.

Protecting children means protecting marginalized children from bigotry and oppression. That's why the Prostasia Foundation has always stood behind trans and other queer people in their fight for acceptance and legal protections, and why we always will.

Complaining about the terminology used by prevention experts won't protect children. Following the research on why abuse occurs to implement strategies that can prevent it, on the other hand, will. Which do you think is more important?

It's easy for nuance to get lost on social media. If you're looking for clarification on the evidence behind our positions or need help finding accurate information about abuse and prevention, consider joining our forum: forum.prostasia.org/

Prostasia is proud to stand behind the experts who dedicate themselves to keeping kids safe, despite facing growing harassment over their vital work. To our partners in the field: thank you for everything you do. Together, we can build a better future for all children.

It shouldn't be controversial to say that protecting children is more important than protecting dolls or cartoons.
