There are restrictions and bans on gender affirming care. Most often for minors, but also for adults. It's telling that most of these that are aimed at adults call out exceptions for Viagra.

There are laws prohibiting drag shows which have been written so vaguely that they can be applied to trans people as well, especially those who do any kind of performance.

Next up are laws forcing trans individuals to use the bathroom assigned to them at birth. I'm very curious how they expect women to react to bearded, burly men entering their bathrooms, and how they expect men to react to women presenting individuals (actually I'm quite sure of how they'll react: they'll be SA'ed if not killed).

And then there's the bans on playing sports for Trans individuals - all 40 or so of them.

So no, they're not explicitly outlawed, yet. Just everything about them living their life is. Much like it was never illegal to be gay, they just outlawed sodomy.

What about hairplugs for balding men? Or cosmetic surgery for, say, gynecomastia? Is that restricted to cis men only in these places? Or facial cosmetic surgery, for that matter. There’s actually quite a bit of gender affirming care for cis men, when you think about it…

(I actually hadn’t realised that anywhere in the US had gone as far as banning gender-affirming care for adults; that’s bonkers.)

Wait, wtf, seriously?
