HT and Utilit99 have no effect on my life whatsoever. Their opinions are useless because they are clueless and refuse to listen.

Exactly. You never over threaten what you are actually going to do. My BIL dated this woman and her son they always tried to punish him by saying "You'll be in bed if you don't knock it off." It would be like 6 pm. You aren't going to put the kid to bed at 6 so it is empty. My wife and I- with our daughters- it is always about "You need to do this and here is why." Because when a kid hits a certain age- fear no longer works. So a child needs to know why we need to do the good/right thing. Likewise- any time our daughters are punished, the punishment hits and then before it is over it is "Do you understand why you were in trouble?" and they have to tell us why.

You are wasting your time. He doesn't have kids.

Triggered! Lol. My wife is beautiful and most importantly as opposed to yours, real.

Yeah HT is just a lying sack of human excrement. Also- no way he has kids. And no way, if he actually tricked some woman into spawning with him, those kids grow up to like him in any way.

Drink bleach dude.

asexual is bizarre to me. Like there is nothing you are attracted to? The girl who identifies as asexual is super quiet. Nice girl, very smart, very friendly when you talk to her but just dresses very frumpy in a lot of layers which her guidance counselor said she does because she expressed "we are just lumps of clay as people."

The curve shown is for all LGBTQ people (and that leaves out the IAA+ apparently). It wasn't solely trans students. I can tell you though I have one class with 24 people and of those 24- 2 are transsexual, 3 are bi, and 1 is asexual. So 6 of 24 is exactly 20%. I don't think that class is the norm though but I would say the number is probably 10-12% across the entirety of the LGBTQIAA+ system.

You realize "L" "G" "B" AND "Q" are also letters as well and mean different things?

No you are not. You are setting yourself up for a bunch of trouble. Again- hear it, acknowledge it, and pass it along to the person who can help. You've done your job and kept yourself clean.

The filter hates "douc hebag" but is okay with "dumbass"

"I'm very happy for you to feel comfortable to admit that to me. I would advise you to discuss it with your guidance counselor (provided I'm not their counselor) or therapist so you can figure out how to tell your parents."' Again- I can think it is the dumbest thing in the world but I'm not going to mock a kid for it in the moment. Trust is key and for many of those students they feel unheard- they just need to be heard in some cases.

Honestly I think we are in semantics and I'm not going to waste either of our times debating that. But to very simply say- I acknowledge some of it is social. Some of it is very real for students though. That is where I say "It is some of this and some of that." I would also say I don't advocate puberty blockers or anything like that in anyone under the age of 18. Once they are adults and want to do that- go nuts. 2 parts below what you quoted here that is almost exactly what I said. ""I'm very happy for you to feel comfortable to admit that to me. I would advise you to discuss it with your guidance counselor (provided I'm not their counselor) or therapist so you can figure out how to tell your parents.""

I really wonder what goes on in his head when he posts things. Like is it "I nailed this one," (backslap backslap) Amazing isn't? Whataboutism at its finest

Again- it does not matter one bit what I, you, or any other chud pounding away at their keyboard thinks. It doesn't matter if we agree, disagree, or are otherwise ambivalent to what a teenager believes when it comes to this stuff. If a 16 year old kid walks up to you- in your role as a protector and authority figure- and says "I believe I am a different gender than what I am," if your response is "Fook you, no you aren't," You are a . The correct response is to make a kid feel heard and acknowledge whatever they are going through without trying to sway them in one direction or another. Likewise if your response is "That's cool, let me give you a whole bunch of information on what to do now or help you get set up with hormone blockers, etc," you are a dumbass. It is completely possible to hear a kid say these things and say "I'm very happy for you to feel comfortable to admit that to me. I would advise you to discuss it with your guidance counselor (provided I'm not their counselor) or therapist so you can figure out how to tell your parents." Boom- I heard the kid, acknowledged them, and gave myself an out on the coversation. It does not matter if it's 1 kid of out 25 or 10 out of 25 that does it.

Look- if you are not around the younger generation on a daily basis I'm sorry but your opinion is not 100% germane in this similar to the idea of my opinion not being germane to the ideas of engineering. Kids are far more comfortable in who and what they are anymore and LGBTQ youth are treated far better in schools than they were 20 years ago. As to your numbers- if 3 kids of 25 are in the wrong body and 2 are just trying to be trendy that is a bit of both in that 5. Furthermore, even kids who are trans accuse other kids of being trans because it is the "cool" thing to do.

No you kinda don't if you want to peacefully do your job...and you know- also not be a to a teenage kid trying to figure things out. I tend to agree. I do think there is some bit of trend to it, but I also think younger generations are more comfortable with who they are. So it's a bit of both.

Clarifying a point is not moving the goalpost. Good try

You left out the post where I clarified and said this would include me saying something to the union about it all. Conveniently I suppose.

I literally said that it would include expressing my displeasure to the people in my union....now I'm not supposed to do that? So where is your target moving now?

It was amusing because you were trying to call someone stupid while making an easy to see grammar/syntax error. Also again- you ignored the points I raised to focus on one thing in the post. Keep to your playbook.

So my expressing to people in my union that this is silly for central admin to put out e-mails like this is not what you want me to do now?

I said very clearly- the article paints this as being a conference like this the whole time. I've been to conferences for a number of things (no not this particular topic) and they always start slow and work towards bigger concepts and things. So I somehow doubt at 8:30 am while people were wolfing down coffee or juice they were talking about taking dildos in the butt. It's called using "previous experience." I would imagine their were parts of the conference geared towards pronouns, respecting LGBTQ, and other similar topics. And again- whether you like it or not- LGBTQ youth exist and you have to understand how to engage with them and make them feel respected regardless of your personal feelings. I said numerous times in this thread I would not have gone to the conference and I would've given it side eye the whole time. You missed that part I suppose. Probably because it doesn't fit your narrative. Now- please show me where I defend lefty activists, or admit you are "more dumb than I thought." . You fooking moron.

You made a grammar mistake while trying to call someone stupid. It was amusing. I defend lefty activists? Please find where I said I'm okay with it all. And you are arguing for pages on a fantasy football message board cruising TikTok and Twitter for stuff to post- you are the bigger stain. I like that you guys think calling me (or insinuating I am) something I am not is some big insult.

So you want to add "Lack of understanding of Title IX" to your resume? Cool. You still have no answers to questions I posed yesterday. Also, "More dumb than I thought". Haha...It should be "dumber than I thought." Maybe go back to school dummy
