Which schools are teaching about Rainbow pride flags in preK? NONE. We go to one of the most progressive preschools in DC and they don’t teach about that. And, even if they did, the vaaaaaaaast majority of preK in this country is private schools. So parents can exercise their choice.

I just can’t with this naked bigot.

So, slam the messenger when there is evidence you don't like.
Truth is..... this type of crap is happening more than anyone previously knew.

“Crap”

There are all kinds of families and we should be kind to everyone?

Is that really what you consider “crap”?

Telling five-year olds that they can “feel like” a boy or a girl and change that material fact is the “crap”.

You know that refusing to recognize it won’t stop kids from being trans, right? It just makes them more likely to kill themselves out of fear of rejection by people like you.

Maybe you’d rather have a dead kid than a trans kid, but I sure as hell wouldn’t.

Guess what? I know others who have transitioned early who are now suicidal because they can’t replace their lost organs.

You have multiple friends who have had surgery and now regret it?

In my line of business? Yes

Oh, are you that anti-trans nurse?

In fairness, the parents of kids with below average IQ (50 percent of the public school population) don’t want their kids struggling or having to have to help tutor the children. This is just another slovenly, lazy time waster for a slovenly/lazy and horribly performing bloated and nauseating hell hole.

Wow. You POSs look for ways to bash teachers every chance you get, huh?

Teachers that are good give up like any normal person would when a tidal wave of slovenly students/parents and lazy and in many cases mentally ill colleagues drowns them.

The Education Community is a failure and the people who run it are the last people to listen to regarding education. Whatever they are for … the opposite is probably the best policy.

No. We spend a lot on schools because they fill the gap that social services should fill.

No. We spend a lot on schools because they fill the gap that parents should fill.

So you blame parents for lack of affordable childcare, healthcare, food deserts, affordable housing, etc?

Why is that “crap”?

What does it mean to “feel like a girl” or “feel like a boy”?

Those mean different things to different people.

Why is it crap?

Telling a 5 YO boy that if they "feel like" a girl and they can change to be a girl is just blatantly anti-science.
It is at the very least confusing for a 5 YO.
You cannot change your sex. You just can't.

We are discussing gender, not sex.

Gender does NOT supersede sex. Gender USED to be a term interchangeable with "sex" to designate male or female. One's sex cannot be changed.
A 5 YO does not understand the concept of "gender" as it is currently used.
There is no place for gender instruction in the elementary years.

They are two different things.

Sounds like you are stuck in the past. Here’s a good explanation for you:
https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/what-do-we-mean-by-sex-and-gender/

Hope that clarified things for you.

Why would there be an age restriction on gender instruction? Kids will get it much more easily than some of the old-timers on this thread. They also understand why it’s important to be nice to everyone. Maybe you can learn something from these kids.

You think that’s going to make sense to a five year old?

Not the medical definition, but young kids won’t struggle neatly as much as you. Sit back and learn something from them.

Learn how to kind and respectful of people who are different than you.

You can teach kids to be respectful without telling 5 year old girls that they might really be boys or boys might really be girls. Parents don’t want that in the classroom. The democrats are risking future elections by pushing this into public schools.

So one school system in IL has these lesson plans?

Therefore, ALL DEMOCRATS SHALL SUFFER!!!

Yeah, you don’t sound like you’re pushing a wedge issue at all.

The Biden administration is all-in on transgender issues, with no regard for the impact on women or children’s health. It goes far beyond one school district.

The republican party decided this was the new moral panic along with CRT (which is not actually taught in public schools it's a law school topic) to create a fake moral panic.

I’m curious as to your position. Do you think no schools are teaching “gender identity” lessons? Do you think young kids are not transitioning? Do you think minors are not getting hormones and surgery? Or do you think it’s not a problem that these things are happening? Those are two different positions. I’m curious which one you hold.

DP. I think these decisions should be between a person and their doctor without big government intrusion.

So when Billy's friend Johnny starts wearing dresses, referring to themselves with feminine pronouns and changes their name to Suzie, Billy should ask his doctor to explain what's going on? That seems like a little much.

Billy can ask his parents.

Hey - I want to change my adjectives to gorgeous and learned. I insist everyone use these adjectives when addressing me.
Let's start a movement. Forget "pronouns." Let's go with adjectives.

I recently tried to enroll my dog in a preschool. He tries to act like a human toddler, and I realized that he likely identifies as human rather than dog. How terrible that we have boxed in all dogs to only identify as dogs. The trauma it must inflict on non-dog identifying dogs weighs heavily on my heart. The preschool rejected him, saying they only take human toddlers.

(Cue the story about how pp's family lives in a red state and she grew up with parents who were extremely conservative and "backward.")

Well, if Billy has a bigoted a-hole parent then maybe speaking to the doctor would be a good solution.

So…activist on this thread has:

- used risk of suicide bullying
- used ageism bullying
- used ‘lack of intelligence’ bullying

All to try and prove a point. Hint: If you need to bully to get your point across, you HAVE no valid point.

And that’s just the short list.

What exactly is your definition of an activist? Someone that disagrees with you?

Someone who pushes an agenda, usually for some sort of political clout that’s hidden. It’s usually exposed through behavior (i.e. a politician pushing an issue like climate change while flying private and building oceanfront homes. The lines are often blurred, which causes patient harm.

Ok, activist. You keep pushing your bigoted agenda on DCUM.

And when the left can't respond with fact, they attempt to smear, thinking it actually hurts people. Hint: It doesn't.

Which schools are teaching about Rainbow pride flags in preK? NONE. We go to one of the most progressive preschools in DC and they don’t teach about that. And, even if they did, the vaaaaaaaast majority of preK in this country is private schools. So parents can exercise their choice.

I just can’t with this naked bigot.

So, slam the messenger when there is evidence you don't like.
Truth is..... this type of crap is happening more than anyone previously knew.

“Crap”

There are all kinds of families and we should be kind to everyone?

Is that really what you consider “crap”?

Telling five-year olds that they can “feel like” a boy or a girl and change that material fact is the “crap”.

Why is that “crap”?

What does it mean to “feel like a girl” or “feel like a boy”?

Those mean different things to different people.

Why is it crap?

Telling a 5 YO boy that if they "feel like" a girl and they can change to be a girl is just blatantly anti-science.
It is at the very least confusing for a 5 YO.
You cannot change your sex. You just can't.

We are discussing gender, not sex.

Gender does NOT supersede sex. Gender USED to be a term interchangeable with "sex" to designate male or female. One's sex cannot be changed.
A 5 YO does not understand the concept of "gender" as it is currently used.
There is no place for gender instruction in the elementary years.

They are two different things.

Sounds like you are stuck in the past. Here’s a good explanation for you:

You think that’s going to make sense to a five year old?

Not the medical definition, but young kids won’t struggle neatly as much as you. Sit back and learn something from them.

Learn how to kind and respectful of people who are different than you.

You can teach kids to be respectful without telling 5 year old girls that they might really be boys or boys might really be girls. Parents don’t want that in the classroom. The democrats are risking future elections by pushing this into public schools.

So one school system in IL has these lesson plans?

Therefore, ALL DEMOCRATS SHALL SUFFER!!!

Yeah, you don’t sound like you’re pushing a wedge issue at all.

The Biden administration is all-in on transgender issues, with no regard for the impact on women or children’s health. It goes far beyond one school district.

The republican party decided this was the new moral panic along with CRT (which is not actually taught in public schools it's a law school topic) to create a fake moral panic.

I’m curious as to your position. Do you think no schools are teaching “gender identity” lessons? Do you think young kids are not transitioning? Do you think minors are not getting hormones and surgery? Or do you think it’s not a problem that these things are happening? Those are two different positions. I’m curious which one you hold.

DP. I think these decisions should be between a person and their doctor without big government intrusion.

So when Billy's friend Johnny starts wearing dresses, referring to themselves with feminine pronouns and changes their name to Suzie, Billy should ask his doctor to explain what's going on? That seems like a little much.

And, instead of explaining anything, when Billy's parents slap the crap out of him for even asking, and forbid him from ever seeing his friend again?

Fear based assumption. Red herring.

P.S.: That is not hyperbole. That is all too often the reaction of culturally conservative parents to those types of questions.

Knowing people in this situation, usually the conservative parent asks questions and is shouted down with insults and screeds about pronouns, anti-trans and bigot. You can't question in a cult as that's a threat.
