Last week Erin in the Morn previewed Kentucky HB 470, which Frankensteined every anti-trans bill in the country into one omnibus punch the trans people bill. In addition to all the rest of it, it bars mental health counselors from "affirming 'sex specific behaviors that vary from those typically associated with a person’s sex.'
