A conservative group discovers 341 federal grants totaling$ 128 million for gender ideology research.
According to a new database created by the American Principles Project, the U.S. Department of Agriculture gave Southern University Agricultural &, Mechanical College in Louisiana$ 600,000 to study menstrual cycles in” transgender men.”
According to the database” Funding Insanity: Federal Spending on Gender Ideology under Biden-Harris,” the class” will Research Menstrual Cycles In Transgender Men And People With Masculine Gender Names, Intersex, And Non-Binary People.”
According to the award description,” the initial period of ovulation occurs at around 12 years old and ends with menopause at around 51 years old.” A woman may experience a monthly menstrual cycle for about 40 of her existence, which will last for 450 periods on average over the course of her career.
It is also crucial to point out that transgender people, people with masculine gender identities, transgender, and non-binary people can even menstruate, it says. ” Around 26 % of the world’s population is menstruating at any given time.”
The review aims to address “growing problems” about menstruation, including the possibility of including hemp-like healthy fibers in feminine hygiene products.
In the last two months, the class did not respond to numerous emails asking for comments on the job.
An APP official told The Fix that the offer and others listed in the databases are” the tip of the iceberg.”
” We are aware that this is only the tip of the glacier.” Our project primarily looked at grants and contracts that had some connection to female philosophy. However, there is still a lot more money being spent on DEI, critical race theory, and another left-wing ideologies than what we haven’t yet captured,” Paul Dupont wrote in an email to The Fix.
” There is still a lot of work to be done to determine and, finally, get rid of this bone. DoG [ Department of Government Efficiency ] will have some busy weeks and months in store,” Dupont said.

The University of California, San Diego received nearly$ 1 million from the Department of Health and Human Services earlier that year for the construction of the” trans-safe patient safety learning lab” with the aim of enhancing “patient safety for transgender individuals.”
The offer information specifies that it will be used to “engage with the full range of stakeholders in an iterative process of co-design and enhancement, using both innovative and tested tools to develop interventions that address the structural determinants of emotional damage in transgender individuals.”
In another example, the USDA gave over$ 16 000 to the University of Arizona in 2022″ to increase enrollment in national plans and outreach to ‘ Gay’ individuals.”
The National Institutes of Health gave nearly$ 700,000 to Boston University to study” social media and substance abuse risk and resilience among gender minority emerging adults” a year earlier.
