I haven't read it, but the LGBTQ community overall thinks highly of it (of those who have reviewed it) and online comments that I've seen from gay/lesbian teens have also been overwhelmingly favorable.

It's Rasmussen which is all we need to know.

He has always been this annoyingly pedantic.

I love how the truth, which you have not been able to logically refute here, embarrasses you.

It is embarrassing that Rachel Maddow and Jonathan Capehart (both of whom are openly gay/lesbian) obviously don't consider Reid anti-gay or homophobic?

As I posted in another thread a month or two back (can't find it in a search) the author of Gender Queer said it should be age restricted to High School kids and is not for ages below that. Also she pointed out that the book has not been made part of any school curriculum outside of being available to HS to read if they wish.

He only needs one if he declares himself dictator.

There literally would be thousands of due process violations under The Constitution if that were done, but the current SCOTUS might go along with it (The WW2 internment of Japanese citizens born in the US was clearly illegal but SCOTUS let it stand).

Good riddance. We can use more space here.

Tim and I are both safe unless he has The Constitution amended.

Not true. But carry on.

No not kill us all, but to be a dictator (as he keeps telling us) and be able to do whatever he wants.

Speaking of Steve Garvey:

Thanks! I am in good company.

If you believe that I got some ocean front property in Arizona I want to sell you. Trump's lawyers said last week that their position (arguing for Trump) is that POTUS has completely immunity for any crimes or offenses committed while in office, with the court asking if a President hired a SEAL Team 6 to assassinate a political rival, would POTUS be immune from prosecution and the lawyers answered in the affirmative. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4398223-trump-team-argues-assassination-of-rivals-is-covered-by-presidential-immunity/

She likes gay people and they like her. Rachel Maddow frequently had her sub for her as host when Maddow's show was on Mon-Fri. Would Maddow have her host her show if she thought Joy Reid didn't like gay people? And on Reid's own show she has had several openly gay folks sub for her as host when she is out, such as Jonathan Capehart.

Sorry, they didn't.

They said the books were actually on the shelves of the elementary schools?

She is right. If Trump is elected, it will be the end of Democracy as we know it in this country. He said he will be dictator on Day 1 and has doubled down on that statement, so we should believe him.

No, and the opposite seems to be the case after viewing Trump's rally speeches and Truth Social unhinged rants.

I am skeptical of the accuracy of what is being reported. I seriously doubt that Gender Queer was sitting on the elementary library school shelf and that 8 year olds were able access it (as has been alleged). When we discussed this book in another thread, the author said that it was recommended for HS students but not any younger age group. I suspect that this book and the others were not actually in the library but the titles were banned due to the right wing media hysteria about them (a preemptive strike, if you will).

Thanks!

Meh. Ask some LGBTQ folks if that makes a difference to them now.

Not true. If it were for the money she wouldn't have given up her daily/weekly show to appear at most just once a week to earn less.

No, Joy Reid isn't a homophobe. As proof of that Rachel Maddow had her as the guest host om her show multiple times when Rachel was out. Would she do that if she thought Reid was a homophobe? No, Maddow is the star of MSNBC with a lot of clout, and if she had an issue with Reid, that never would have happened.
