Wtf. These people with these initiatives are so fucking gross. What do you expect from the party of pedophiles i guess.

For pedophiles, by pedophiles.

Heywood said he didn’t believe his initiative would add anything new to existing medical requirements

Why suggest it then?

My default response to these types of people, is "why are you so interested the the genitals of minors?" In person it's great. Then double down and keep calling them a pedophile.

No no really it's about protecting girls, really it is! Now go on over to the doctor's office and take off your pants.

There is a movement in WA state to get rid of ballot initiatives altogether. This is only going to speed that up.

Thx MAGA for ruining what little of a democracy we had left. And thx establishment Democrats for turning into Republicans.

FYI socialism and progressive issues are literally dead on arrival in WA except occasionally in Seattle where they only pass if corporate overlords don't donate hard enough.

Now that all the MAGA parents have to deal with this, they might begin to understand.

No they won't.

I mean, the current sports physical has the doctor fondle your balls if you're a dude.

Not saying this is a good thing by any stretch. Obviously it's dumb and transphobic.

But I had to turn my head and cough a good few times in high school, and I'm not sure this is more invasive than that, lol.

look i dont get why they care in the first place, but why wouldnt birth certificates work instead of this bullshit?

total and complete insanity, fucking repulsive.

or an analysis of testosterone levels in the blood

Fun fact: that’s not a sex test because cis girls also produce testosterone, sometimes at heightened levels comparable to some cis boys. That’s just how biology does.

Uhhhhhhhhhhh

If you are so against transgender folks being transgender that you're cool with a stranger confirming children's gender by taking a peek at their genitals, you are a fucking monster of a human being.

"Sex-testing" children in schools sounds like something you'd find in a niche pervert hentai drooled over by 4chan /pol/ board weirdos; right along with all the other infringements on bodily autonomy we've seen from this regime. We don't live in "Hell". We live in the fantasy of the formerly rightfully-ostracized.

Republicans are obsessed with children's genitals.

Go figure.

an analysis of testosterone levels in the blood

Uh, wouldn’t this make trans girls test as girls and trans boys test as boys?

Like, don’t tell them if so, because it’s absolutely funnier that way.

The WIAA is aware of roughly 10 trans athletes out of more than 200,000 kids who compete across the state, Kesterson said.

20,000:1 RATIO, FUCKING HELL HOW WILL GIRLS SPORTS EVER OVERCOME SUCH A HUGE PROBLEM???? no choice but to MAKE SURE YOU AIN'T SMUGGLING ANY BALLS ONTO THE COURT!

I really cannot see this ever passing, at least. Laurie Jenkins would have Bob shot if this somehow passes the house & senate and he didn't veto, and it'd probably be done with Mike Brown's gun (tho I similarly cannot envision a world in which Ferguson would ever pass this. Guy's pretty decent.)

Sounds like some people just want to look at kid's junk. Sounds very Republican.

The gop are going to sign up in droves to be this "medical professional"

This is Brian Heywood absuing the ballot initiative process again. Brian Heywood is a rich fuck who left California for Washington State because he's dumb as fuck and thought WA was further to the right. He moved his entire business here and is now using his wealth to flood the zone with shitty, fucked up, misleading, and pointless ballot initiatives in an attempt to make WA what he originally (and stupidly) thought it was.

Brian Heywood should take his dumbass to Idaho, where they're happy to bend over while he goes to town.

They call us groomers, but conservatives want to look at little kid's junk before they can play sports. Fucking gross

To save women from having "men" theoretically sneaking into bathrooms to see their genitals, we've now mandated that all women must allow "medical professional men" to see their genitals.

..... This is what conservatism does to your brain....

"I looked at the genitals of 24 middle school girls and didn't find any perverts. You're welcome!"

Why do these perverts care so much about children's private parts?

Fucking pedos

That's what the conservatives behind all this anti-queer stuff actually intended: they want to see and fondle kids genitals.

They are so afraid of a man using a women's bathroom, that they will abuse as many children as possible.

a visual genital exam

...no.

Pedophiles and rapists control the US, so this is logical next step.

At that point we can just say that, let’s just let the girls and boys play together so the Trump-Epstein coalition doesn’t come in to examine their genitals.

Genital inspection day was supposed to be satire.

Conservatives are happy to look at children's private parts.

They're going to auction off government positions for the new child genital inspecters to the highest bidders.

Hey y'all, when I was starting highschool I had a doctor try to inspect my genitals and i had to tell no, they told me I needed a physical before I could play sports, I declined again because I didn't want to do sports anyway.

Can someone tell me if this was normal or if the doc was being weird?

And that's the result of religious ppl off you.

If this passes as a ballot initiative in Washington State - pack it up, burn it down. This country has nothing worth trying to save.

We need to start referring to these people as PACs... Pedophiles Against Competition.

Leave those kids alone you ghouls. What a fucking dark stretch of time.

For a second, I thought you meant Western Australia. And I was wondering why the f that would be happening here.

My first impression was that this bill must have been sponsored by Jon Lajoie, but no, he was not interested in kids genitals.

Virginia rn

While the law itself is a significant overreach and such. The article is really blowing it out of proportion. Doctors check a kids genitals at their yearly checkup until puberty at least. So thisnis just a simple doc signing off on something they have already done in the past. There will be exceptions of kids who moved or have a new doctor since puberty or something. But they already have to get a medical release usually to play sports anyway. So they will have a new doctor who will have undoubtedly done a general physical anyway. The ones who this really effects is the poor. The ones who don't have a regulat doctor. Who is going to be doing their medical release... I don't know. But it should at least be a doctor I believe.
Not that doctor's are garunteed safe or anything. But in most cases they were at least vetted by the parents and not some random schmuck showing up at games checking girls crotchs.

The pedophile party wants to look at kids' genitals? Quelle surprise!

And they claim the trans people are the sickos?!?

I feel like this would have been an onion headline many years ago

Are they trying to attract Republican pediatricians to WA?

Interesting that it's a ballot initiative. I guess they're counting on getting the pedo vote? This shit is so fucking creepy

Cue a whole bunch of Republican politicians and conservative pastors stepping over each other to volunteer as examiners
