The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) distributed a list of resources for “LGBTQIA2S+ young people” earlier this month filled with materials produced by radical transgender activists, including a biological man who regularly posts photos wearing only women’s underwear to social media and a furry named “Moss Lobos” who is known to wear a cat fursuit and has declared that “all cats are gay,” a Washington Free Beacon review found.
The OHA sent an email on June 5 intended to connect young people to “support across Oregon,” encouraging them to “stay connected to resources that promote mental health, safety, belonging, and wellbeing.”
The resources included the organization Rogue Trans, which is “dedicated to uplifting and empowering the transgender, non-binary, and gender-diverse community across Southern Oregon,” according to its website. The group’s executive director, Maeve Woulfe, is a transgender woman who posts photos in women’s underwear on Facebook.
Earlier this month, just two days after the OHA shared Rogue Trans as a resource for children in the state, Woulfe wrote on Instagram about urinating after gender reassignment surgery: “Okay peeing is sooooo different now. Not only do I have to sit.. It goes everywhere.”
Woulfe has also posted several graphics in support of “trans children” on Facebook. In a December 2025 post, Woulfe said that “calling trans children by their new names and pronouns is suicide prevention and pro-life,” Woulfe wrote. “People really should understand this. Why can’t people get it?” In an April 2025 post, Woulfe wrote, “I am the Trans Child I love!!!”
The OHA also shared a group called Rainbow Youth as a resource for Oregon children. That organization’s “lead facilitator” goes by the name “Moss Lobos,” uses “they/them” pronouns, and has a profile picture on the group’s website of a furry costume with a sign reading, “all cats are gay.” “Moss Lobos” was also pictured in the Salem Reporter‘s coverage of the 2026 Salem Pride Parade wearing a fursuit and holding a pride flag. “Moss Lobos” appears to be Kris Lobos, who identified as “asexual” and uses “they/them” pronouns and whose Facebook profile features the same fursuit and the Rainbow Youth organization.
The groups’ offerings reflect the radical nature of their leadership.
Rogue Trans, which was founded with the goal of “developing a comprehensive, community-informed directory of local businesses and healthcare providers recognized for inclusive, gender-affirming policies and practices,” lists the locations of doctors who will perform “gender-affirming surgeries,” or sex-change operations, on its website.
Rainbow Youth, which creates “safe and welcoming spaces for LGBTQIA+ youth and their friends,” holds in-person meetings facilitated by staff for children as young as 12 years old. Its website lists book titles like Generation Queer, The Awesome Autistic Guide for Trans Teens, and Breathe: Journeys to Healthy Binding as resources.
Other groups that the OHA shared have similarly radical staff and goals. TransPonder—which “address[es] root causes of discrimination within and outside transgender, gender-diverse, intersex, lesbian, gay, bisexual, asexual, and queer communities through an intersectional social justice lens”—has a board member named Ariadne Wolf, “a Master’s student at the University of Oregon, where they study Conflict Resolution and Nonprofit Management,” according to the organization’s website.
Wolf, whose personal website states that her great aunt was “one of the first women in the world to have gender affirming surgery,” has also written at length about “Fat Advocacy in the Jewish community.”
In her November 2023 Jewish Women’s Archive piece, “Why We Need Fat Torah,” Wolf wrote about a group called Fat Torah, which bills itself as “bringing fat liberation to Jewish communal life.”
“I am bound by my Jewishness to the idea that perfection exists, that the world can be made whole again,” Wolf wrote. “At the same time, I am bound by the patriarchal influences of my upbringing to the idea that I should be punished for not being perfectly whole in a broken world. That is why I need Rabbi Minna Bromberg and Fat Torah in my life … The project aims to equip fat activists with the spiritual support and ritual guides we need to sustain our work, and offers workshops and tools to allies in Jewish community who want to confront weight stigma in their lives and in themselves.”
Wolf bemoaned that a Jewish organization with which she had been involved “hosted a workshop about loving one’s body, facilitated by a straight-sized woman who had never been fat or experienced fatphobia or sizeism personally.” She also wrote, “Without ritual Jewish spaces that center the experiences of fat people, I am left with spaces that merely tolerate me, while too often making it clear they wish my offensive body would simply disappear … Until fatphobia is erased from our Jewish lives, people with bodies like mine will never be able to truly come home.”
Her group, TransPonder, also directs “trans, gender-diverse, and questioning folx” to “gaffs, binders, breast forms, nipples, bras, packers, eyelashes, makeup, and more.”
Another group the OHA recommended to students is the Marie Equi Center, led by executive director Katie Cox. Cox says on her LinkedIn profile that she found her “purpose in radical advocacy for the LGBTQAI2S+ community” and noted that she “received a Mermazing Citizen Award from the Portlandia Mermaid Parade and Festival.” She posted photos on Facebook showing what she wore to the 2022 mermaid parade.
The Marie Equi Center works to “enrich the health of the trans, queer, intersex, and gender diverse communities through trauma-informed care, culturally specific services, and social justice advocacy,” according to its website, and its “services are specifically designed to serve and support unhoused and low-income LGBTQAI2S+ people.” Those services include “workshops, narcan, and other supplies for harm reduction and preventive care,” “gender and culturally affirming peer support,” and “gender neutral shower and laundry service.”
The Oregon Health Authority, Rogue Trans, Rainbow Youth, TransPonder, and the Marie Equi Center did not respond to requests for comment.
The OHA is one of several public agencies in the state to face scrutiny over far-left advocacy. As the Free Beacon reported in April, Multnomah County, home to Portland, allocates resources for its homeless population using a points-based system “designed to prioritize … BIPOC households, LGBTQIA2S+, [and] people with disabilities.” The same county, the Free Beacon reported last month, plans to spend almost $300 million on race-based programs in fiscal year 2027, with $50 million going toward programs that exclude white people altogether. In the meantime, the Free Beacon reported in October, Portland city council members are focused on investigating any “complicity the city may have with Israel’s illegal occupation, apartheid, or genocidal violence against Palestinians.”
