Caitlyn Jenner slams Trump over 'relentless attack on transgender community

Caitlyn Jenner, formerly named Bruce Jenner, voted for President Trump in the 2016 election and considers himself a woman and a GOPer. [The latter is factually true, the former is a recently declassified mental disorder.]

Jenner is claiming that President Trump has perpetrated a "relentless attack" on the transgender community because he doesn't actually understand what Trump's administration is doing in that regard.

"Following Trump's election as president, I saw fertile ground for change within the Republican Party on LGBTQ (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer) issues," he wrote. "Trump was the first Republican presidential candidate to claim to support this valuable, vulnerable community, and I was encouraged by the applause he received when he said at the Republican National Convention in July 2016 that he would stand up for the LGBTQ community."

But Jenner has changed his perception about the president's positions regarding those who believe they are not the biological sex of which they were assigned at birth.

"The leader of our nation has shown no regard for an already marginalized and struggling community" Jenner wrote. "He has ignored our humanity. He has insulted our dignity. He has made trans people into political pawns as he whips up animus against us in an attempt to energize the most right-wing segment of his party, claiming his anti-transgender policies are meant to 'protect the country.' This is politics at its worst. It is unacceptable, it is upsetting, and it has deeply, personally hurt me."

Jenner believes Trump is rolling back Obama-error era transgender protections, but all the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seems to be doing is trying to establish the legal definition of sex under Title IX as a biological, immutable condition determined by the "gear" one is endowed with at birth.

Title IX is the federal law banning gender discrimination in education programs the receive government financial assistance.

HHS simply wants to define gender as determined "on a biological basis that is clear, grounded in science, objective and administrable." They don't want to determine gender on what an individual feels to be his or her gender. So, according to the HHS definition, gender would be legally unchangeable and any dispute over gender would be clarified using genetic testing.

Science deniers win, libtards lose--you can't just say you're a woman and that magically makes you a woman, and vice-versa. Nobody's rights are being taken away other than the right for a guy who thinks he's a woman being able to go into a woman's bathroom and again, vice-versa. Because people who pee standing or sitting have rights too.

Period.
