TFG Unbuttoned: Get Your Little Fresh Meats Here
President Erdogan of Turkey now declares that LGBTQ people do not exist. Turkey has cracked down on pro-LGBTQ protesters denouncing them as immoral and perverted. Then don't feed the feral chickens in Hawaii or face a $500 fine. How did they get there? Finally, China believes their male population—"little fresh meats“ is the term they use—is becoming too feminine and needs a dose of masculinity training. To combat the problem, the government wants to reform the physical education programs to butch up the boys!
