According to a new study, the United States displays further tolerance for transgender treatments than Europe.

An Iowa-based Diocese implemented a new policy on Monday that has banned congregants from using preferred pronouns and requires them to use bathrooms corresponding to their biological sex.

A Maryland Catholic hospital's cancellation of a transgender man's hysterectomy surgery was deemed "discriminatory" by a federal judge last week.

A transgender woman was recently arrested for destroying a 117-year-old Protestant church in downtown Portland, Oregon, in an arson attack.

A federal judge on Thursday upheld a West Virginia law prohibiting biological boys from playing on girls' teams in a decision that one legal group called a "win for reality."

A federal appeals court upheld a Florida school district’s traditional bathroom policy on Friday in a landmark ruling involving the issue of transgender-identifying students and privacy.

Cultural artifacts are particularly effective in making ideas seem normal. Huge advertisements at cosmetics stores like Sephora portray young men dressed provocatively in women’s clothing and covered in makeup. Boarding most Delta flights requires walking past an image of a same-sex couple cuddled up in premium economy.

Without using a single word, cultural artifacts can communicate ideas not merely about what counts as normal behavior but about what it means to be human. In essence, Sephora is telling our sons and daughters that “the way we know a boy is a girl is that he is dressed provocatively and covered in makeup.” What message does that send if not to be a woman is to be like this? 

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously ruled in favor of a Connecticut athletics association policy allowing biological males identifying as females to play in girls' sports.
