Actress Cynthia Nixon joined hundreds of protesters in New York City to denounce NYU-Langone Health's cancellation of appointments for transgender youth seeking puberty blockers following President Trump's Trans Care executive order. Nixon emphasized the importance of affirming transgender identities and condemned the hospital's decision, stating that 'New York is better than this.'
Actress Cynthia Nixon has revealed that her son, her sister's kids and her best friend's kid are all proudly trans during a protest in New York City.
'I am here today as the aunt of a proud trans man,' she continued. 'My best friend's kid is trans and my kid's best friend is trans.' Actress Cynthia Nixon, 58, revealed that her son, her sister's kids and her best friend's kid are all proudly trans during a protest in New York City During Monday's protest, Nixon spoke about how Samuel had his top surgery done at NYU 'a number of years ago.'
One of the children had been due to have a small device, which would release a puberty-blocking medication called Supprelin LA, implanted into the upper arm on Thursday. Monday's packed protest comes less than a month after President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning federal funding for transgender sex-changes for minors
'Children who do not receive that care have significantly higher rates of suicide, of depression, of anxiety, of not being able to thrive in this world.' NYU canceled appointments for two 12-year-old children who had been scheduled to undergo a procedure in which a small device, that would release a puberty-blocking medication called Supprelin LA, would be implanted into the upper arm
'They've escalated the attack on us, so we have to escalate standing up for each other,' Emma Lazarus, a Brooklyn resident, told NY1 during Monday's demonstration.Trump signed the executive order condemning the practice of sex transition surgeries for minors, noting that 'countless' children regretted the surgeries that 'mutilated' and trapped them into fighting 'a losing war with their own bodies.
The White House previously noted in a memo that four out of five children outgrew feelings of gender dysphoria, without costly and irreversible surgeries they later learned to regret.
