Call to Action

SOS Rights Protest in Lynnwood Spa this Saturday! June 17, 2023.

Demonstration in Support of OLYMPUS SPA and Their Right to Offer WOMEN-ONLY Services SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 2:00 p.m. Lynnwood Convention Center Plaza.

For years, Olympus Spa has offered women a haven: a female-only space with hot tubs, saunas and massage. Now, in response to a complaint, a WA court has ruled that the spa “lacks the constitutional right” to bar males from their facilities. The court has ordered them to allow men (who claim to be women) entry. Olympus Spa will fight this ruling, but they need support from their community. PROTECT WOMEN-ONLY SPACES, SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS, and RESPECT KOREAN CULTURAL TRADITION.

June 9, 2023 - California Bill Would Charge Any Parent Who Doesn’t Affirm Transgenderism With ‘Child Abuse’

A recently amended California bill would add “affirming” the sexual transition of a child to the state’s standard for parental responsibility and child welfare—making any parent who doesn’t affirm transgenderism for their child guilty of abuse under California state law. AB 957 passed California’s State Assembly on May 3, but a co-sponsor amended it after hours in California’s State Senate on June 6. AB 957 post-amendment “would include a parent’s affirmation of the child’s gender identity as part of the health, safety, and welfare of the child,” altering the definition and application of the entire California Family Code.

California courts would be given complete authority under Section 3011 of California’s Family Code to remove a child from his or her parents’ home if parents disapprove of LGBTQ+ ideology.

June 15, 2023 - Girl Sues Hospital for Removing Her Breasts at Age 13

A hospital and doctors in California are facing a new lawsuit for removing the breasts of a 13-year-old girl after she claimed she was a boy.

The defendants carried out “ideological and profit-driven medical abuse” when they prescribed her puberty blockers and hormones and, later, performed a double mastectomy, Charles LiMandri, one of the lawyers representing the plaintiff, Layla Jane, said in a statement.

“The law says children aren’t mature enough to make serious decisions that could have long-lasting consequences like getting a tattoo, driving with friends, drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, or even voting,” Jane said in a statement. “So why is it acceptable for 13-year-olds to decide to mutilate their body?”

This process included puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and a double mastectomy performed when she was just 13 years old.

California Bill SB 729 seeks to redefine "infertility" to be a status, as opposed to a medical condition. Changing the definition to "a person’s inability to reproduce either as an individual or with their partner without medical intervention" would classify gay men as infertile.
