The GayBC‘s are In, Dr. Suess is Out
More than a decade ago, I purchased a number of gay-themed books for children, wanting to see what parents and educators were reading to their little ones. Recently, I became aware of The GayBC’s, by M. L. Webb, published in 2019 and as extreme as any children’s reader I have seen. Yet these days, books like this are celebrated while the beloved Dr. Seuss is deprecated.

The Relentless 9-Year Assault on Jack Phillips Unmasks the True Threat of the ‘Equality Act’
Nine years ago, a gay couple went into Masterpiece Cakeshop and asked baker Jack Phillips to craft a cake to celebrate their same-sex wedding. Phillips refused, based on his Christian conviction that marriage is between one man and one woman, but he offered to sell the men anything else in the shop. They reported him to the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, sparking a six-year legal battle up to the Supreme Court. Shortly after the Supreme Court found in favor of Phillips, a transgender lawyer targeted the Christian baker, beginning the battle all over again.

The Equality Act Is Really the Inequality Act.
A world where the government gets to decide what gender and sexuality mean for the rest of us—what could possibly go wrong?
We live in an increasingly Orwellian world. Although it has become both a truism and a cliché to invoke the words and spirit of George Orwell’s classic novel 1984 to describe the political (un)reality around us, it’s fair to say that, had Eric Arthur Blair had not thought of it first, the Western Civilization has more or less invented an Orwellian world by this point.
5 Things You Need To Know About The Extremist ‘Equality Act’ House Democrats Just Passed
On Thursday, the House of Representatives passed the so-called Equality Act by a vote of 224 to 206. While Democrats have marketed this legislation as a simple civil rights law designed to protect LGBTQ people from discrimination, it is far from that.
The statutory language instead provides for an extreme remaking of all aspects of society, destroys the promise of equality for women, and threatens religious liberty and the privacy rights of all Americans, especially children. The proposed law also will upend state and federal protections of the unborn—yes, the Equality Act is about abortion too.
‘Gender Identity Doesn’t Erase Physiological Advantages’: Student Athlete
Biologically female athletes should not be forced to compete with athletes who are born biological males, student-athlete Linnea Saltz told an audience at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
Saltz, who participates in the highest level of intercollegiate athletics known as the NCAA Division I, said on Saturday that her views do not stem from a desire to discriminate against transgender women but instead that accommodating for LGBTQ athletes should not come at the expense of destroying women’s sports and the dreams of biological female athletes.

‘Biological males are taking our medals’: Female track stars’ fury after Biden withdraws government from lawsuit to stop transgender athletes competing in high school sports
A Connecticut high school track athlete said she was ‘disappointed’ after President Joe Biden’s Justice Department withdrew from a lawsuit aiming to prevent transgender athletes from competing in girls’ high school sports.
Alanna Smith, who filed the lawsuit with fellow athletes Selina Soule and Chelsea Mitchell, appeared on Fox News with her lawyer to say girls have ‘missed out’ on placing on awards podiums after competing against ‘biological males.’
Biden’s Equality Act is not the unifying issue he thinks it is
President Joe Biden has announced that he will move ahead with a proposed Equality Act prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. A decision celebrated by Liberal America, it will be the first such legislation to be implemented at US federal level. Campaigners argue this is necessary in a nation where, in many states, it’s still legal to refuse housing or services to someone on the basis of being gay or trans. But the legislation comes with a sting in the tail for women, which may prove unexpectedly costly to the Democrats.

The book, “When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment” by Ryan Anderson, was removed by Amazon around Feb. 21. The exact timing is hard to pinpoint since the author, who is president of the Washington-based think tank Ethics and Public Policy Center, only learned about the move when people informed him that they couldn’t find the book in the online retailer’s inventory
