I have a buddy who works in a school. Semi rural school with class sizes of around 100. Said at any one time there may be a handful that identify as something else. Most all of them have switched back and forth on what they want to be called. And teachers have to keep up with the ever changing pro nouns. These kids use a faculty bathroom. Seems like we have confused kids more than they already were. You are right. Much of this is a "fad". Yet we have to bow down and kiss the ring and play the game until they get over the fad. The goths of the 90s and 2000s didn't expect to be called anything different or use different bathrooms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are being taught to affirm whatever a child feels that he'she is promote use of proper pronouns and such. I run into it all the time...and I live in Oklahoma. I would imagine it's more pronounced in other, more "progressive" states. So this sounds like a common sense adjustment that should be made. Continue to provide care and therapy for these kids, validating their feelings, and taking a common sense approach to their care. What bothers me is all the extremes that want to deny the kids any care, deny their feelings, and try to shame them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like listen said, we've confused kids beyond belief. I oppose all the gender identity ideology, but love the kids. And I will not shame them or deny them support just because they've bought into it.

I’ll take the Bible as written instead of interpreted by you. Funny - whenever the Bible says something the fundamentalists don’t like, they tell everybody else what it REALLY means... instead of taking it literally. Meanwhile, most of them still think the world was created in 7 days and there was an actual garden of Eden with a woman made out of a guy’s rib. They take some things literally, and other things they “interpret” away. If you act against transgender people, or don’t think women should be pastors in the church, or are racist...then this verse is pretty darn inconvenient for you if you claim to follow the Bible.

When the kids are adolescents, they need psychiatric treatment first not surgery and drugs. Many younger children are troubled. When they mature and grow into adulthood and still want to make the change then they can make that decision on their own, not as 12-13 year olds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone who says the right is obsessed with this garbage ideology has lost their fuking mind. Biden had a Pride party, one day this year. Fox runs stories about transgender people 365 days a year. Pretty sure we know who is obsessed. Heck, just look at this message board. Every day another right-winger makes a new thread about transgender people.

TheNewGirl 1,357 Posted June 14, 2023 3 hours ago, GutterBoy said: WTF is this cackling? Google says you're wrong, again. https://abc7.com/california-proposed-bill-gender-affirming-children/13377700/ Did you read the bill? Quote The initial legislation said courts deciding custody cases must consider whether each parent affirmed the child's gender. AB 957 encourages parents who support their TGI children by "making it clear that affirming a child's gender identity is part of the health, safety, and welfare of the child." It also allows courts to consider a parent's affirmation of their child's gender identity when making decisions about visitation and custody. So the parents must BOTH confirm the child's gender, or the courts can remove custody and visitation. Mom - "Just tell them you're a girl, daddy won't stand for that and then you can live with mommy forever!" Yeah, that's healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they didn’t work so hard to weave hyper sexuality into our everyday lives, literally nobody would give a fuk. Nobody gives a fuk about your average queer person living their lives. What you see from 99.9% of the right is a reaction to the assault on objective truth. That’s literally what the whole Bud Light thing is about. If transactivists came out and conceded that trans women aren’t really women and that schools full of already confused kids isn’t the place to push this ideology, this topic would be quelled to barely noticeable ripple in the ocean.

TBayXXXVII 2,485 Posted June 14, 2023 2 hours ago, MDC said: I live in one of the biggest and most liberal cities in the US. Maybe once a month I see someone who is obviously trans in passing? If even that often. I have to laugh at some dude out in Montana or whatever who’s seriously worried about this stuff. My nephew is 15, a freshman in high school. There's at least 10 kids that identify as trans in his school. At his middle school the prior year, the school had a "Pride Club". His school had about 800 kids, of which, there we 70 members in the Pride Club. He said that half identify as trans. His cousin, who is gay, was in the that club and is the source of the information. The high school that my nephews cousin went to, which is the local school of the middle school they both went to, has over 2500 kids and they have a Pride Club. That club has over 200 members where a third identify as trans. No, I'm not surprised you don't see many... because unless you're around middle and high school aged kids all day, you'd almost never see them. I have 4 patients/clients who are trans. All 4 are over 20 years old. Of the 4, two have told me that they don't like the way schools promote the trans movement because the vast majority who claim to be trans, are just acting. The other two doesn't talk about the topic. People with kids should worry about it because it is getting a lot of, not just support, but condoning and encouragement in the schools. Yeah, a lot of kids will grow out of it, some won't... but a good portion could be prompted to seek medical intervention, which is NOT acceptable. After 18, have at it... prior? Nope.

Stryker Ryker 188 Posted June 14, 2023 Sorry but if you push any of this onto kids younger than 11/12 you’re 100% indoctrinating them as their brain cannot process the information. They’re too young. Their minds haven’t developed enough yet. I don’t know what’s so hard to understand about that. It’s simple science and biology that we STILL to this today confirm to be true. It’s common knowledge. I’m fine with pride stuff and lgbtq stuff being introduced to middle schoolers in sex Ed cause let’s face it. It’s here and it’s not going anywhere. However when you try to push books in elementary school that literally talk about having sex, sucking d1ck, masturbating, etc then we have a MAJOR problem.
