The student government of the University of North Texas (UNT) is calling on the school to suspend student groups that are accused of making “transphobic posts” in order to “protect the mental, emotional, and physical health” of the transgender community.
The resolution, titled, “Trans Existence is not a Debate,” was passed at UNT in response to a Young Conservatives of Texas event featuring Jeff Younger, a father who reportedly lost custody of his child when opposing his son’s declaration of transgender status.
Younger has also described the sex transitioning of minors as “child abuse” and “mutilation,” and supported Governor Abbott directing the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate the transitioning of minors in the state.
