Arkansas bill targets 'gender nonconforming' haircuts for kids
If passed, the bill would let parents sue anyone supporting a minor's social gender transition, from hairdressers to teachers and nonprofits.
The party of "small government" wants to police what haircuts children are allowed to get.
Finally, these child groomers will be brought to justice:
Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home if you don't cut that hair
Your mom busted in and said, "What's that noise?"
Aw, mom you're just jealous, it's the Beastie Boys
Only took 40 years.
Here’s a similar one from my fathers generation
Biological gender essentialism is very much an attempt to reassert absolute gender roles that are unchangeable and affirm patriarchy.

We should make sure that we include hair plugs and androgel under the banner of "gender-confirming care".
Land of the free, where you can't even choose your own haircut
So, similar to the non-conforming clothing bill that was changed to be obscene clothing because the former was blatantly unconstitutional (although I'm surprised they didn't want the fight).
Except that was targeted at everyone (specifically drag, but all ages) where this targets kids. So I'm guessing the argument is "child abuse".
The amount of "think of the children" hand-wringing they do to push authoritarian behaviour while their 'moral guidance' figures are found to be paedophiles is just ridiculous.
