Yesterday, the West Virginia House of Delegates approved an amendment from Del. J.B. Akers ® to allow a child’s “treating health care provider” to examine a child’s genitals without the consent of their parents.
The amendment was actually an improvement over a previous version of the bill, which, state Democrats argued, would have allowed teachers to perform the genital examinations.
Akers’ amendment was the Republican response to one proposed by Del. Kayla Young (D), which would have banned child and adult genital examinations altogether.
“It’s unconscionable that Republicans would support legislation that authorizes intrusive visual inspections of minors without parental approval,” Young said. “West Virginians should be alarmed and disgusted by this invasion of privacy.”
It also says that all intersex people are “either male or female” but does not give a basis for assigning a sex to them.
And here comes the decades of child abuse from abusers who found the glaring loop hole.
That’s called pedophilia
What level are they allowed to view? If the child says no are they able to force their way into their pants? At what point does it become rape?
A child cannot consent.
So, immediately. It becomes sexual assault, at least, immediately.
You’re looking at this problem all wrong, it’s not that children cannot consent. Nobody is arguing that. The change here is that now those that would be doing the tests are no longer considered child predators because they didn’t do anything illegal. So now it would be totally fine for priests, doctors, senators, neighbors, etc to look at random kids genitals to verify sexuality without any resistance from their parents/guardians. Is this how we finally do away with rapists, by redefining sexual assault.

“treating health care provider”
Some of these things are not like the others.
After COVID, many doctors left rural areas. This has left many communities across the country lacking proper “treating health care providers”. Who do you think is going to fill that gap for the purpose of this bill. Besides, most of the time the ones that are making headlines for this stuff typically have an R next to their name. But you’re right, some of these things are not like the others. And that’s kinda my point.
Unless…we can come up with some sort of legislation…totally important and necessary legislation, of course!
So wait… Couldn’t they just simply request a copy of a child’s yearly physical from their physician? For example, in the 90s/2000s, if we wanted to join a sport we had to get a physical from our GP of choice so the doctor can confirm it was safe for us to play the sport in question. It was a form the doctor and parent filled out, then gave to the school. I would think something like that was already a thing?? I also remember my parents having to submit certain medical records to my schools for other reasons… Why would anyone else need to examine these children???
Ideally, if the politicians actually believed what they told their votes, then yes, they would do it that way. But… Trump was best friends with Jeffry Epstein. Nearly all the Maga billionaires visited Epstein’s island. The Republican party is full of pedos, sex traffickers and Nazis.
Genital Obsession Party
Oh, come on, it’s just a ChildS exAM
What the actual fuck‽ And the original was so much worse
It’s the pedo enabling act!
It’s like they learned the wrong lessons from the US gymnastics team incidents.
Oh the irony that the shitheads that couldn’t wear a mask, and want to ban books because of “parent rights”, now want to ice parents out of the decision of a rando looking at their kids genitals.
But drag queens reading books are the real threat.
It turns out that conservative people believe in specific people, not in ideology. So any claims about reasons for specific policies are basically just pretext.
Fucking weirdo pervs.
So republican parents are ok with strangers inspecting their child’s genitals without their consent?
Well that law will never on MY KIDS.
We found the real freaks. I wonder if the Pizzagate/Qanon dipshits have figured it out yet: everything the qons do is about projection.
What actually happend to the Qanon movement? Is that still a thing? Is it dead?
Likely just mainstream Republicans now, along with the teabaggers (often the same people).
If anything to go by their Hungarian counterparts, their only problem is “homosexual pedophilia”, while celebrate old guys who manage to hook up with actual teens as “real studs”, then blame the victims for the pedophilia, because “14 year olds back then played with dolls, not dressed like sluts”. And I was the one who felt bad for posting Railgun memes with “You know what are the number one causes of pedophilia? Sexy children” text onto my anime shitposting page…
Keep republicans away from my children
This shouldn’t surprise anyone. Most pedophiles are Republicans. Now they get to visually molest your kids legally, neat.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS IS AN IMPROVEMENT
Well, you see before it was a random stranger, but NOW it’s a random stranger in a lab coat.
“Right now I may just be a ‘random stranger’, but as soon as I put on my genital inspection coat I become the Inspector-Genital”
It’s all a part of making America great.
Before it was allowing a republican to be in the room.
A government so small it fits into a child’s pants
