In a move that is sure to rile up left-wing activists, Florida has implemented a new measure that bans transgender drivers from changing their gender on their driver’s licenses. The state’s Deputy Executive Director of the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Robery Kynoch, issued a memo stating that gender should be understood as synonymous with biological sex and not a person’s internal sense of gender identity. This means that trans individuals in Florida will no longer be able to receive a replacement license with their gender identity. While state and federal laws still allow trans individuals to change their gender on other documents such as passports, it remains to be seen if Florida will address this discrepancy.

NBC News reports that this new measure is just one of 11 proposed laws in Florida that target LGBTQ individuals. These laws are seen by some as a step in the right direction for Florida and for the country. While the article does not mention any trans individuals threatening to leave the state in response to this new law, it is certainly a possibility. After all, why would they want to stay in a place that does not accommodate their gender identity?
The article highlights the larger issue of the transgender movement’s demands for society to affirm their belief that they can change their sex. While there are undoubtedly those who mistreat and hate trans individuals, the article argues that criticism of the movement is often treated as a direct attack. The piece also points out how transgender activists and allies often make demands for public support, criminalizing misgendering, and coercing individuals into dating and loving them. However, the author contends that many of these demands are empty threats.
Given the political climate in Florida and the response of left-wing activists in the past, it is suggested that many trans drivers may choose to leave the state rather than stay in what they perceive as an oppressive environment. The article concludes with a call to support Florida and its efforts to put a stop to what it perceives as woke nonsense, asserting that it is time to stop enabling these delusions.
