Undermining the Family
The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on Dec. 4 over Tennessee’s ban on gender-altering procedures for minors, teeing up a potentially game-changing decision for precedent on this issue.
American Civil Liberties Union attorney Chase Strangio and U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar asked the court to remand or send Tennessee’s law back to a lower court for reconsideration.

Read MoreMoana was first a boy, but nothing in Moana 2 (call it a Disney trans blockbuster) equals the beauty of Robert Flaherty’s 1926 documentary Moana, in which the eponymous native Samoan kid lies in the shallow surf, looking up at his beloved Fa’angase as she eats little fish and basks in his teenage adoration. It’s one of those peerless moments associated with Flaherty, the anthropologist-poet best known for directing the 1922 Eskimo classic Nanook of the North. Flaherty always found beauty in the commonplace activities of little-known cultures. (Man of Aran and Louisiana Story are his other masterpieces

The high court heard arguments about the transgender law on Wednesday and its decision, expected next year, could impact similar laws in 25 other states.

The hearing was the first time that the current court, which has a conservative majority, openly discussed a significant battle in the US “culture wars”.
