Dear Colleague,

It is quite amazing when the truth is spoken at the UN, especially by a top UN official. In this case, the top UN human rights expert on women has told governments that gender is based on biological sex and they should stop using gender neutral language when referring to women. Of course, radical governments from Europe and elsewhere exploded in wrath. Stefano Gennarini, J.D. and Iulia-Elena Cazan have the story [[link removed]].

Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. continues her series [[link removed]] on C-Fam's amazing human rights database. Our date reveals that governments are mostly quite sensible when talking to each other about human rights, hardly any mention of abortion or sexual orientation and gender identity. The C-Fam database is an invaluable tool for anyone with an interest in what the UN is doing on abortion and SOGI.

Spread the word. Be daring. Keep the faith.

Yours sincerely,

Austin Ruse

President
