In amongst the usual extreme reaction on Twitter, author Katie Mack summed up the issue with Midler’s tweet, “The term ‘pregnant people’ includes pregnant women & also people who are pregnant but are not women. It doesn’t in any way erase/deny women; it’s just more inclusive. I am a woman. I have friends who are not women but can get pregnant. Language that includes them doesn’t hurt me.”
The backlash against Midler comes at a time when some states are looking to restrict health care options for transgender people. In February, Texas Gov. Gregg Abbott instructed state health agencies to begin investigating parents who are allowing their transgender children to get gender-affirming surgeries. Abbott described such surgeries as “child abuse.”opinion piece by Pamela Paul on her Twitter account.
