HENCE the 19th AMENDMENT
the 19th amendment granted women the right to vote. The 19th amendment legally guarantees American women the right to vote. Achieving this milestone required a lengthy and difficult struggle—victory took decades of agitation and protest.
& let's not forget that the original constitution not only forbade women the right to vote - but those ' 3/5 'black people were not only forbidden to vote ... but were also property at the time it was written.
the 13th AMENDMENT took care of that:
The 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
Article VI, Paragraph 2 of the U.S. Constitution is commonly referred to as the Supremacy Clause. It establishes that
the federal constitution, and federal law generally, take precedence over state laws, and even state constitutions.
the ONLY reason the dobbs case was ruled upon the way it was
( besides the bought & paid for supremes deciding it on behalf of their benefactors )
is because congress has failed to actually make choice part of federal law. that can change if the right people get voted in after seeing what can happen to 50 yr precedence.
what you just wrote is bullshit. surgery re assignment is exceedingly rare for minors under the age of 18 & that is only after 'long term' medical & psychological counseling, after which a diagnosis of gender dysphoria must be met & includes assessing a patient's suicidal tendencies if care is denied.
NOBODY wakes up one day & just says 'hmmmmm ... me thinx i'll switch teams today '
what the standard protocol demands is puberty blockers & then hormonal treatment which are REVERSABLE.
By Mayo Clinic Staff
Puberty blockers can be used to delay the changes of puberty in transgender and gender-diverse youth who have started puberty. The medicines most often used for this purpose are called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues. Here's a summary of their possible benefits, side effects and long-term effects.
What do puberty blockers do?
When taken regularly, GnRH analogues stop the body from making sex hormones. That includes testosterone and estrogen.
Are the changes permanent?
GnRH analogues don't cause permanent physical changes. Instead, they pause puberty. That offers a chance to explore gender identity. It also gives youth and their families time to plan for the psychological, medical, developmental, social and legal issues that may lie ahead..
