Florida 24-hour wait period

I am a transgender woman living in Florida, and believe the following section of this article is inaccurate:

"In August 2022, the state of Florida voted to require any trans adult seeking gender affirming healthcare to receive approval from the Florida Board of Medicine at least 24 hours in advance."

I have encountered no such requirement during my treatment. It appears that the 24 hour waiting period was proposed, but never signed into law nor did the Florida Board of Medicine update their requirements to include this provision. 2600:8807:C61B:3200:6FD7:7C60:F7BE:7481 (talk) 19:23, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

no source, no addition Pyraminxsolver (talk) 03:17, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Edit removes considerable amount of seemingly cited material from the lead and body, alleging WP:OR

[1] There are a lot of citations included here for an WP:OR claim...


(from the lead)

Major figures in the movement include Florida governor Ron DeSantis,[1][2] former Fox News pundit Tucker Carlson,[3] podcast host and activist Matt Walsh,[4][5] far-right Twitter account Libs of TikTok operator, Chaya Raichik,[6][7] and Elon Musk, business magnate and owner of Twitter.[8][9][10][11]

Notable Figures (section)

While I haven't had time to look at each citation individually, these types of large edits usually raise some red flags. Pinging FMSky for further discussion. DN (talk) 22:22, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

that was only recently added by an IP (1, 2) and, again, is original research unless these sources directly state that these people are "notable figures of the 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States" --FMSky (talk) 22:27, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

I see, so there was no consensus prior to inclusion. However, in the spirit of WP:TALKDONTREVERT, let's look at some examples. Starting with the citations for government officials like Marjorie Taylor Greene ("Marjorie Taylor Greene introduces bill to make gender-affirming care for transgender youth a felony") and Ron DeSantis ("DeSantis's attacks on LGBTQ people through the public education system--his "Don't Say Gay" legislation, now in effect--has already gained him national notoriety"). They seem to confirm anti-LGBT legislation by these two. The lead reads...

The 2020s anti-LGBT movement in the United States is an ongoing conservative political backlash most notably from Republican lawmakers and congressional leaders, against LGBT people which has included bathroom use restrictions, bans on gender-affirming care, anti-LGBT curriculum laws, laws against drag performances, book bans, boycotts, and conspiracy theories around grooming.

So, these two notable figures not only seem to meet the required parameters, they are also cited, which means it is not WP:OR, at least as far as I can tell. DN (talk) 23:32, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
Those sources also don't call them "notable figures" in the movement... However them introducing anti lgtb legislation is notable and can and should definitely be included FMSky (talk) 00:11, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
(Nota bene Blocked sockpuppet)Hair Splitting. They are notable and undoubtedly anti-LGBTQ figures. Saikyoryu (talk) 20:33, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
I agree with bringing back the list, and I'd like to propose also listing organizations like Genspect and Gays Against Groomers Snokalok (talk) 02:44, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
I think an amended list would be more productive. Keep in mind, the lead states it's focus is on "lawmakers and congressional leaders" against LGBT people. IMO it would be better to keep it simple and focused on the "leaders" of the movement, ie the representatives elected by the constituency of anti-LGBTQ+ voters. While many of these representatives may be republican, I think any representative, republican or democrat, that pushes legislation against LGBTQ+ may qualify, IMO. DN (talk) 05:24, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
So far this would include MTG, DeSantis and Trump IMO. DN (talk) 05:38, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
Then that raises another question - why are we focusing on lawmakers and congressional leaders? It's not they who created or led this panic, it's figures like Chris Rufo and Chaya Raichik Snokalok (talk) 04:01, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
If your aim is to remove them, I would point to existing reliable sources as reasons why they are DUE. If you wish to keep Rufo and Raichek, it would seem that you should find consensus to change the lead, which would again require citations to support said change. I am open to your ideas, but reliable citations always come first. Agreed? Cheers. DN (talk) 05:59, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

British anti-LGBT

I'm wondering, and feel free to chime in, to what extent this article should involve content on the similar anti-LGBT push in the rest of the English-speaking world, the UK being the most prominent example. While yes, we both have borders and our own legislatures, the level of influence the digital age has given the two in stoking anti-LGBT hatred for each other is not inconsiderable. That is, when anti-LGBT rhetoric is being pushed in the US, those pushing it will frequently cite British media pieces and British court cases, and vise versa. Thoughts? Snokalok (talk) 22:12, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

There is enough US only news that already fills this topic here, so I don’t think mixing it in would help (as tie article is already long enough as it is), but you are free to start an article about British (or European, since there’s some other countries in Europe that are also heavily moving in that direction) anti-LGBT movements and link it in the See also here. Raladic (talk) 07:03, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
I agree that there's a very strong connection between this social movement and the analogous one that began earlier in the UK, but it should only be brought up in the context of sources which directly make a case for the two being linked, or at least directly compare them, otherwise bringing it up would amount to original synthesis, in my opinion. 207.164.2.98 (talk) 04:19, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 16 January 2024

I suggest changing the description of the missouri trans restrictions order to that it would require a screening for autism instead of barring people with autism as nothing in the order says it would be disqualifying https://www.axios.com/2023/04/13/missouri-ag-gender-affirming-care https://autisticadvocacy.org/2023/03/asan-condemns-restrictions-on-gender-affirming-care/ I also suggest adding that the order was dropped after the may 11th court date https://www.axios.com/2023/05/17/missouri-transgender-order-gender-affirming-care-ban Transvampire (talk) 15:29, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. - FlightTime (open channel) 15:33, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Transgender_rights_in_the_United_States i would suggest using the description of the missouri order found on the the transgender rights in the united states wikipedia page Transvampire (talk) 15:36, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

Short description: "political backlash"?

I don't think harrassment, doxxing, and murders of people for existing, as well as the stripping of basic human rights of those people by vile politicians, count as mere "political backlash". I don't have the proper, actually neutral wording in mind, or I would've changed it boldly. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 02:47, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

There's literally no mention of "murders" or "doxxing" on the whole article. I believe you're victimizing yourself. 2800:200:E630:106E:FC41:8D7F:7D06:56CC (talk) 14:45, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
The "Violence" section references a murder. Jruderman (talk) 22:20, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
