Yeah.

But judging by the tweet alone, this is fucking gross. All women should move outta Florida to somewhere that doesn't actively harm them.

Knowing just a little too much about minors' menstrual cycles to own the transgenders

You could make an entire cards against humanity expansion pack with stupid ass conservative identity politics

I thought female athletes take injections to stop their periods, so why would their menstual cycle matter?

Garbage fucking state

america recently decided women dont count as people
the end goal is to have them classified as their fathers livestock until they get sold to a suitable male owner for breeding purposes

DeSantis made it legal.

someone's destroying womens sports and it aint trans people

Looks like the questions are optional, and have been standard for more than 20 years. People are raising concerns now with what happens to the data after it is recorded.

Period history is important information for pediatricians to know as they screen for bleeding and hormonal conditions that can cause complications for athletes.

But in Florida, all of that medical data is then turned over to the athlete's school, contrary to other states that require only the physician's signature page to clear them to play.

Although the questions are nothing new, athletes, their families, and their doctors are taking a closer look at where this information goes after the overturning of Roe v. Wade this summer by the U.S. Supreme Court.

With reproductive privacy and parental rights over children's data top of mind, both abortion rights advocates and concerned parents have raised alarms about the questions and and how they can be used.

100% truth

Oh look. A way to prove if a woman miscarried based on loose circumstantial evidence, and the miscarriage would be considered an abortion and as such murder.

Bears must be on the move again

edit:

I guess they're not. Apparently its been a thing for a couple decades and its just going digital

For more than 20 years, the Florida State High School Athletic Association has asked female athletes to answer the following questions on their pre-participation form:
When was your first menstrual period?
When was your most recent menstrual period?
How much time do you usually have from the start of one period to
the start of another?
How many periods have you had in the last year?
What was the longest time between periods in the last year?
The questions are marked as optional.

If you want good reporting. You have to pay for it. All the bad sources are free for anyone to see them.

This was already fucked up beyond belief for a number of reasons, but that didn't even cross my mind until you posted it. They will absolutely do that :(

They're gonna start finding lawyers who don't fuck around seeing a slam dunk case against them.

Fucking gross. The hell they will.

Considering the years of "hey guys, Republicans aren't gonna stop here" warning I've been doing for trans stuff, doing it when it finally is targeting cis women in general is pretty easy in comparison since the immediate harm they intend is way more well documented.
