A group of 36 North Carolina-based United Methodist churches are expected to depart the denomination come November.

Alaska is expected to become the 24th state in the U.S. to ban transgender girls from competing in girls' sports.

Professing Christian and Rock and roll legend Alice Cooper has lost a partnership with a cosmetics company due to his traditional beliefs about gender and children.

A recent article in The Atlantic by Helen Lewis made the bold claim that “The Gender War Is Over in Britain.” An overstatement, to be sure, but not entirely unwarranted. Keir Starmer, head of the Labour Party, recently led his party away from full support of radical gender ideology. This was a notable shift for the United Kingdom’s largest left-wing party, which had previously encouraged radical elements of trans activism and stood aside as feminists were canceled for resisting the new orthodoxy. The shift, which was quietly announced to the public, made “three big declarations.”  

A federal appeals court this week delivered a major victory to opponents of transgender procedures for children, green-lighting an Alabama law that prohibits minors from receiving puberty blockers, cross-sex hormone treatments and trans surgeries.

Are bodies something we merely “have,” or are our bodies essential to who we are?

A couple from Massachusetts is suing the Department of Children and Families (DCF) after they were reportedly blocked from fostering children due to their beliefs on gender, sexuality and marriage.

A former advisor to President Donald Trump is suing Target due to shareholder losses from boycotts over its Pride Month displays.

Recently, Chloe Cole, a 19-year-old young woman who was pressured to undergo transgender surgeries, challenged a social media video by Neil deGrasse Tyson, the populist astronomer and science personality.

Tomorrow, I might feel 80% male.” Seemingly to Dr. Tyson, the ability of people of any gender to feel a particular way and then to put on makeup accordingly proves that “the XX/XY chromosomes are insufficient because when we wake up in the morning, we exaggerate whatever feature we want to portray the gender of our choice.” Dr. Tyson continued in a blatantly non-scientific statement, “What business is it of yours to require that I fulfill your inability to think of gender on a spectrum?”

In her reply, Chloe Cole interspersed video of herself confronting his bizarre claims.

Recently, British author and journalist Helen Joyce offered a hard-to-hear but reasonable explanation for why transgender ideology continues to endure, despite its inherent contradictions, its obvious falsehoods, and the harm that has been inflicted on children. Her words are worth quoting at length:
