    Dude no! The therapists who affirm peoples identities are not child abusers! The people who tell them to supress those feelings are a lot more abusive so please don’t go through with this

    I will message my Legislative representative and urge them to listen to facts and to vote against the bills.
    I am unable to attend the hearing and wish you success!
