This debate ISNT about if #circumcision is “better”. That’s about as ridiculous as having a serious debate that peach ice cream is the best flavor. This is a debate about control, consent, & peoples basic human rights. Which side do you fall? #LGBT #i2

The question isn’t one of #parentalrights. The question is when it comes to #intersex children are we going to error on the side of caution or on the side of policies that force irreversible, potentially destructive surgeries with life long consequences? #lgbt #childrights

Why do I care about circumcision? I don’t care so much whether someone has a foreskin or not. I care deeply, on a societal level, that infants are traumatized during unnecessary penile surgery and whether their human rights to an intact, fully functional body are being violated.

It’s really simple: Does the baby/child need a surgery to live or will there be irreparable harm by waiting? Yes - parents can consent on behalf of the child No - parents can’t consent, let the child chose this for themself when they are adults. “But it’s for

#EveryBody by @FilmmakerJulie ft. Sean Saifa Wall, Alicia Roth Weigel, + #RiverGallo is a MUST SEE! It shares the importance of fighting for intersex rights, humanity, & joy in such a moving way. I'm so lucky to know Sean Saifa Wall and am thrilled he's back on the podcast this season!

I was in the elevator coming off a rough shift and an older couple got in with me. The man said that I was brave to wear my pride pin bc “we don’t tolerate ~your kind~ around here” and I was like, “…you don’t tolerate DOCTORS? Sir are you aware that you’re in a hospital” 😌🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Here is George Clooney response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite." "Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut

SHAME on social media outlets that stifle discussion of circumcision or flag it as "adults only." Non-therapeutic genital cutting happens most often TO children, and is often done at FAMILY parties. It's an all-ages topic by definition. #i2

Most Americans see infant circumcision as “normalizing” surgery, so they’re comfortable putting their newborn sons through it. They see it as stressful, but necessary. It’s time to change the paradigm. To stop imbuing penis chopping with imaginary health or spiritual benefits.

It’s absolute madness that this is being said when the US is providing the bombs that are causing the humanitarian crisis to escalate in the first place. Illogical and inhumane.

Three generations gone in one day. 💔

Rep. Becca Balint is now the first Jewish member of Congress to come out in favor of a ceasefire in Gaza. She is incredibly brave, taking a stance rooted in her commitment to human rights and protection of the innocent. Read her words. Support her. Proud to call her a friend.

Emory lives in Kentucky, facing what has been called the "worst anti-trans bill in the nation." It's not only that—the law attempts to erase intersex existence altogether. Emory Hufbauer #intersex #TransIntersexSolidarity interactadvocates.org/the-censors-an…

Namibia rejects Germany’s Support of the Genocidal Intent of the Racist Israeli State against Innocent Civilians in Gaza On Namibian soil, #Germany committed the first genocide of the 20th century in 1904-1908, in which tens of thousands of innocent Namibians died in the most

Not only did Germany commit the first genocide of the 20th century in Namibia — but the savagery they executed on the Herero & Nama (ie starvation, concentration camps, torture) were the basis of the cruelties later used in the Holocaust. An incredible statement from Namibia.

The most insane thing about TikTok - which most people do not realize - is that the way it works in the U.S. is entirely down to U.S. legislators, but they somehow prefer to blame China for not regulating the app in their own country, which is beyond absurd. China has their own

Since October 7th, 27,478 Palestinians have been killed. 70% are women and children. 136 hostages remain unrescued. Most Gazans can’t access a hospital. That’s not war. It’s slaughter. Americans cannot afford another $17 billion on unconditional violence that risks regional war.
