It’s hard to overstate the bravery involved in speaking up in this environment. Hats off to Ava!

I agree 💯💯💯💯💯. And thanks to you, Maud, and to all the members of the Council who voted for 248 and against 254.

Kara, thank you so, so much for highlighting Ava, a worthy FFS Friday recipient if ever there was one. Thank you, also, for posting the text, as every word is intelligent and insightful. I want particularly to highlight these words from Ava: “Something I’ve learned about sports and school is about being curious and open-minded, and listening to every voice. That’s why I’m surprised that there’s resistance to Resolution 248, which (as far as I can tell) is about listening.” So grateful to this young woman for her courage and clarity. She is a true leader, and I wish her the very, very best in whatever she chooses to do.

Yay Ava! And Boo! to all the weirdo gender cult members in the background humming and laughing loudly to try to disrupt the things they didn't like.

Bravo Ava! Shero! How embarrassing that kids know the difference between boys and girls, but the adults in the room don't. It's a violation of our rights to be forced to accept this religious idea, that mortals can transcend the laws of nature and become another sex. These psychotic, policy makers need to be locked up. They're a danger to society.
