This rule is “one of the most offensive anti-trans proposals” since Trump took office, says Vox political writerIf a transwoman showed up at a women’s shelter, for example, the shelter owner could send them to a men’s shelter — putting them at risk of sexual assault or harassment, Burns explains. And the rule specifically lists traits such as height, the presence of an Adam’s apple and the size of hands or feet that target women.
But the rule proposes the threat of “big, hairy men pretending to be trans” to gain access to women’s shelters, she says, which doesn’t happen.for transgender patients. Some conservatives argued the rule allowed patients to force doctors to perform gender reassignment surgeries, which Burns reports isn’t true.
The Trump administration’s restriction of transgender rights began mere weeks into his presidency when an Obama-era guidance on allowing transgender students to use bathrooms of their choice was rolled back. “But that puts trans people in sort of a state of limbo because our rights would then depend on whoever is president,” she says. “So every four years we could potentially be seeing these vast swings in our rights, which is really untenable.”are still working to make schools more inclusive. Key is the founder and president of Gender Diversity, an organization that serves families of transgender children.
During his two decades of working with trans and gender-diverse children, Key has witnessed “a progression of thought and understanding” from people of all political affiliations.

hereandnow Is that ' physical appearance' the presence of genitalia capable of raping the homeless woman seeking shelter? And someone in the administration, not the top guy, is considering a rule? I'd say common sense says it needs considered.
hereandnow Yeah, trans people don’t belong in female safe spaces to begin with. I’m sick of the trans movement trying to erase all sex-based protections for women. Try the dog pound.
hereandnow Doesn't surprise me one bit. He is the worst President for the American people ever in history. So sad for this great country of ours
hereandnow 'First they came for the ... Then they came for me.' Learn lessons from history.
hereandnow Click bait

hereandnow Good! Protecting real women is a noble effort.

hereandnow I can’t believe I have to say this but, Transgender ppl are human beings! Their choices might not follow the Bible but, NEWS FLASH, we don’t all practice nor preach the Bible! So to deny “human beings” proper care and rights (not privilege) is against all of what America stands!
hereandnow They are abnormally obsessed with trans people which makes one believe they think a lot about it for themselves. Same thing for homophobics, right?
hereandnow Oh look, more biased news from this rag of a “news” outlet. Let’s defund NPR immediately.
hereandnow Trump doesn’t care one way or the other about trans folks. He just sees people as objects he can use. Why do you think he has such a strong ChristIan base?
hereandnow This is fake, you guys just can’t make up enough fake hate
hereandnow Good. Maybe, these trans people can get in touch with reality.
hereandnow So they can still get help, just not at exactly the place they think they should?
hereandnow There is truly no boundary for his cruelty
hereandnow Well, shit.
hereandnow What is there to gain from these roll backs? Can someone explain it?
hereandnow And GOP says they’re pro life, only the ones the deem lives
hereandnow Filthy anti-American bigotry. Worst of the worst. Pure hatred from uneducated, disgusting rednecks.
hereandnow trans mental illness
hereandnow Jesus NPR, try to be unbiased just once on these issues, why don't you? I dont like or support Trump, but I do support women's sex based protections. Women aren't feelings, sex is real and matters. Upholding women's sex based protections isn't an attack on anyone. So manipulative
hereandnow Defund NPR. This about the safety of women. Protecting them from rape and assault from predators posing as women. This is not an ideological debate. When did NPR become activists and why are my tax dollars being used to subsidize it?!?
hereandnow It seems that rather than moving towards inclusivity Trump finds sneaky ways to become an exclusive nation that only protects people like himself. GraySUM2020
hereandnow People are protesting & rioting about rights, BUT NOBODY IS ACTUALLY DOING ANYTHING! People can burn things & hold up signs all they want, but no one has the knowledge on how to fix these issues. Because 95% of the world's population have the same IQ as a bag full of rocks
hereandnow covid19 Homeless SanFrancisco transgender
hereandnow With everything going on in our country lately, the fact that the Trump administration is still carving out time to try to deprive trans people their basic human rights says a lot. This is pure hatred.

hereandnow Your sex at birth is your sex no matter how you 'feel'. We don't want biological men in a women's shelter, idiots.
hereandnow A trans man should not be allowed into a womens shelter. They have suffered abuse and many other terrible things and deserve a space for women only.
hereandnow So this is how the bigots spend their time? cuz it’s definitely not on the masses of America’s dying from Covid. Who wakes up and says” this seems Important” ? wing nuts- that’s who.
