Maine’s State-Funded Trans NGO Publishes Minors’ Pics to Push Penis-Tucking & Breast Binding

Maine’s leading Democratic figures have recently condemned the act of posting pictures of minors on Facebook as a serious political offense — one worthy of stripping Rep. Laurel Libby (R-Auburn) of her right to vote and speak on the floor of the House of Representatives.

Since House Speaker Ryan Fecteau (D-Biddeford) is in the business of determining what is acceptable to post on social media and what is not, it would be prudent for Maine Democrats to also examine the social media activity of OUT Maine.

This taxpayer-funded organization, which advocates for transgender ideology in schools, uses its Facebook page almost exclusively to share images of minors to attract them to galas, seminars, dance parties, and other OUT Maine events, as well as guides to penis-tucking and breast-binding.

Mere days after House Democrats stripped the Republican lawmaker of her right to vote and speak on the House floor for posting an image of a high school athlete on social media—an image that served as irrefutable evidence that Maine was violating federal civil rights law—OUT Maine posted images of multiple minors on their own Facebook page.

However, rather than criticizing a violation of federal civil rights law, OUT Maine was using the image to drive followers to its online store, where minor social media users could purchase or obtain taxpayer-subsidized penis-tucking underwear and breast binders.

Unlike the image Libby posted, which had already been made public on Facebook alongside several other pictures and videos of the athlete, the post OUT Maine made, along with dozens of others, was made exclusively to promote the organization, its online store, and its paid events, which are oriented toward encouraging and facilitating the LGBTQ lifestyle among minors.

At OUT Maine’s online store, shoppers can explore a wide array of transgender accessories, including guides to sex change surgeries, breast binders, and underwear designed for penis tucking.

In 2022, the group received $312,742 in government grants, and the funding is used to fuel partnerships with Maine’s public schools. According to information on the groups website, OUT Maine provides resources and products that allow public school officials to teach minors the intricacies of transgender ideology.

The OUT Maine store even provides, for free, underwear that allows male children to tuck or hide their penises so that they can appear female, as well as breast binders that can conceal the appearance of breasts so that female children can appear male.

The OUT Maine accessory kit makes it clear that breast-binding and penis-tucking are just temporary stops on the journey to total transgender transformation.

Posters adorned with the slogan “Lifting Up Maine’s Queer Youth” offer Maine’s K-12 children an easy-to-understand roadmap that shows tucking and binding is just an intermediate step on the way to hormones.

That would include puberty-blocking hormones, which are administered to prepubescent males and females in order to halt the body’s natural sexual development and typically lead to infertility later in life. But it would also include cross-sex hormones, such as testosterone treatments for females and estrogen-adjacent hormones for males.

The ultimate destination for OUT Maine’s readers and followers, particularly in relation to the young children who encounter its taxpayer-funded literature, is surgery.

As the poster makes clear, the end destination of the transgender journey is elective surgical modification, including mastectomy, breast implants, Facial Masculinization Surgery (FMS), Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS), Body Masculinization Surgery (BMS), Adam’s apple reduction, penectomy/orchiectomy (i.e., the removal of the penis and testes), and “bottom surgery” (i.e., the artificial reconstruction of a fake penis or a fake vaginal canal).

OUT Maine’s Facebook post featuring images of minors also promotes special kits for high schools, K-12 schools, and elementary schools that contain the accessories a progressive school administrator would want to celebrate diversity, equity, and inclusion for transgender students.

Those kits include helpful wall posters that decipher the LGBTQIA+ acronym so that children from kindergarten to high school can understand the important differences between transgender and omnisexual, or between the aromantic and the pansexual, as well as the peculiar flag stripes associated with each brand of heterodox gender expression.

The nonprofit has also supplied free kits on how Maine children can legally change their names to match their new gender, whatever it might evolve to be after learning the many options from the taxpayer-funded NGO.

OUT Maine, as of yet, has drawn no opprobrium from Democratic officials or left-wing activists for engaging in precisely the same behavior as Libby, albeit with a pro-transgender message.

Maine’s almost obsessive focus on injecting transgender ideology into the K-12 school systems comes as Maine students’ test scores continue to plummet in relation to their peers.

According to the January release of Maine’s National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) results, Maine students’ academic performance has declined drastically since 2019, when Mills and the current Democratic Majority took power in Augusta.

The decline in academic performance may not be all that surprising.

Last year, during testimony to the state legislature’s Education Committee, MDOE Commissioner Pender Makin outright admitted that traditional academic learning was less important to her than gender ideology, critical race theory, and social-emotional learning.

“Academic learning is definitely going to take a backseat to all of these other pieces,” Makin said.
