I can’t. DH and I were discussing the R obsession with regulating sex in every way possible the other night. Like, who cares if trans women use the same bathroom I do? And we came to the conclusion that Cons just think about sex more than we do. I’m 48 and cannot recall ever seeing a trans woman in the restroom. And if 1-2% of the population is trans, that means I am regularly crossing paths with them in the restroom. After all, Cons tell you the women’s restroom has been taken over by men in dresses. I just don’t notice/ care.

So, I guess cons try to peep into stalls in a restroom? Go into a stall and pay attention to what the people in the stalls on each side are doing? Can’t relax until they are sure there are no masculine sounds or smells? Stare at other people in line and ponder their genitalia? Cause this is an EMERGENCY folks! The fate of our nation rests on whether the person in the next stall dangles.

I guess con see two men with a toddler and you don’t picture a game of hide and seek, you picture the guys having sex? A kid can’t write a college practice essay about their 2 moms for AP Lang, because all the teacher and other students will think about is what your moms do in bed? And, of course they should not have kids, because all the kids will be able to think about is what the moms do in bed.

It’s like they assume everyone thinks about all sex all the time (like they apparently do). So, they legislate mandatory repression of their out of control sexual obsession. Because going to the bathroom has become this sexually fraught event because there could be penises anywhere! Everywhere! Maybe right in the next stall! Does it sound like penis pee-ing? Meanwhile, the rest of us are like: why doesn’t the Kennedy Center have larger women’s restrooms? The lights are going to give the five m8nute warning any second, hurry up folks.

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised Cons have a righ rate of sexual deviancy. In their world, everyone is hyperaware of genitalia and sexuality. They cant allow the straw that will break the camels back.

It's called "projection" ...they are projecting their own obsessions onto everyone else.

Almost right.

It's called proTection. Just one letter off.
Protecting our kids from the gender lobby and those who are pushing for kids to transition.
Protecting our kids from teachers who push gender crap in the classroom.
Protecting our kids from being exposed to totally inappropriate sexual content including drag shows.
Protecting our women from being forced to compete with biological men.

Look.... you folks are the ones pushing this bunch of nonsense. We are simply pushing back.

For all those who defended this because "little kids don't need to know about homosexuality" -- we told you this was coming.

Is desantis a closeted gay man or something? He seems obsessively focused on this non issue.

It’s hardly a non-issue. Fully support this and hope other states follow suit. There is simply no reason to be discussing/ promoting things like this in schools.

ITA. Our kids need to be educated in mathematics, history, science, technology, and language.
It is ridiculous to spend precious time discussing gender and sexuality.

And, note that discussion on gender and sexual identity are not banned in grades 4-12....

"would only allow discussions of sexual orientation and gender identity in fourth through 12th grade if it is in line with state curriculum or in a health class a student can choose not to participate in." (from the link above)

And, one more thing.....

There is no such thing as "don't say gay" bill. In Florida, or anywhere else.

It's EXACTLY what it means. And you know it.

Teachers will be afraid, and stop any discussion. I can't wait until 10th graders start bringing it up and school. You know RW kids will tell their teachers, who will try to get the teachers fired.

Why should anything be off limits to talk about in school? are we not the home of the FREE and the BRAVE? I guess not.

Because some things- like sexual morals - should be taught at home, within the confines of individual family religious and other beliefs. I don’t want me kids taught about transgenderism. If you want your five year old “educated” on this subject, go right ahead.

The post is about 10th graders, not 5 year olds. That seems like a reasonable she to understand transgenderism at some level. What age would be appropriate in your opinion? I don't think I want my teenager to be an ignorant person.

Please tell us all what there is to "understand" about transgenderism. Other than... well....

Umm it’s always been pretty obvious given his posture, gait, and voice

I’m surprised more famous people haven’t really said anything about it

Do neither of you care about the statistically high rate of suicide and depression among LGBTQ youth? Like, it doesn't bother you at all that almost half of LGBTQ youth have considered suicide? Not even a little? Are gay teens monsters in your eyes?

For people who want to quash acceptance of lgbtq+, can you give me one example in history when a society extended acceptance and equal rights to a group of citizens that wasn’t eventually universally hailed as the just and moral thing to do?

Our human history is littered with examples of exclusion, bigotry, sexism, and racism toward groups of people. Each time, there were many people who vehemently turned to violence, used legislative and judicial power, and tried their best to resist change. Native Americans, Black Americans, Irish Americans, Eastern Europeans, Asian Americans, Latinos - all of these people were not given equal rights/ discriminated against immigrating to the US. Laws against interracial marriage, laws preventing women from voting, apartheid, Jim Crow laws, discrimination against disabled people - people tried hard to keep all of these with the same excuses I read on these forums.

So give me an example of when we were glad we didn’t extend acceptance to a marginalized group or when we regretted doing so. Or do you think we would be better off with laws supporting discrimination against the groups above? Because if you had been around in those days, I’m sure you would have protested the equal rights amendment and the women’s voting act as well.

You’re a Republican, so of course your mind goes to “Well..” (snicker, snicker, grooming!. Do you ever think about anything besides sex?

I think about— respecting people’s names, respecting their pronouns, respecting their right to dress in a manner they find comfortable, keeping your opinions about how god feels about someone else to yourself and not asking about surgical transition. These are the things that were addressed in my federal agency’s “how to deal respectfully with members of the general public” annual video training, which I completed yesterday. You know, the Woke crap the federal government conducted its first training on in 2018. Now we get annual refreshers. Fiscal year 2020 (starting 10/19) brought us updated business writing training on how to write for the general public— with a focus on pronouns and gender.

The federal government is the nations largest employer. So yes, I think kids interviewing for college or entering the workforce need to understand transgenderism and how to write and act appropriately.

Because trust a Republican to think the only issue with transgenderism is who do you have sex with, how often, in what position.

Shouldn’t we be telling these kids that it’s okay to be gay? It’s okay to be same-sex attracted? It’s okay to be gender non-conforming? That those things don’t mean you were born in the wrong body? That you’re perfect as you are? Why are we telling them they need hormones and surgery? That’s the flat out wrong messaging.

I am literally LOLing at the fact that you had to be "trained by your federal agency" - annually! And you just finished yesterday - in how to be respectful of other people.

Did you really not know how to behave before this training? Your mother would be embarrassed for you.

Any class where they read “I am Jazz” or any other book that presents the idea of being a boy or a girl as a choice rather than a biological reality is telling kids there is something inherently wrong with who they are.

Well sure, sounds great. Let’s tell kids it’s ok to be gay!!!! This is such an amazing idea!

Except you can’t. In Florida. While they’re being bullied in school or seeking counseling. Next.

I can’t. DH and I were discussing the R obsession with regulating sex in every way possible the other night. Like, who cares if trans women use the same bathroom I do? And we came to the conclusion that Cons just think about sex more than we do. I’m 48 and cannot recall ever seeing a trans woman in the restroom. And if 1-2% of the population is trans, that means I am regularly crossing paths with them in the restroom. After all, Cons tell you the women’s restroom has been taken over by men in dresses. I just don’t notice/ care.

So, I guess cons try to peep into stalls in a restroom? Go into a stall and pay attention to what the people in the stalls on each side are doing? Can’t relax until they are sure there are no masculine sounds or smells? Stare at other people in line and ponder their genitalia? Cause this is an EMERGENCY folks! The fate of our nation rests on whether the person in the next stall dangles.

I guess con see two men with a toddler and you don’t picture a game of hide and seek, you picture the guys having sex? A kid can’t write a college practice essay about their 2 moms for AP Lang, because all the teacher and other students will think about is what your moms do in bed? And, of course they should not have kids, because all the kids will be able to think about is what the moms do in bed.

It’s like they assume everyone thinks about all sex all the time (like they apparently do). So, they legislate mandatory repression of their out of control sexual obsession. Because going to the bathroom has become this sexually fraught event because there could be penises anywhere! Everywhere! Maybe right in the next stall! Does it sound like penis pee-ing? Meanwhile, the rest of us are like: why doesn’t the Kennedy Center have larger women’s restrooms? The lights are going to give the five m8nute warning any second, hurry up folks.

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised Cons have a righ rate of sexual deviancy. In their world, everyone is hyperaware of genitalia and sexuality. They cant allow the straw that will break the camels back.

It's called "projection" ...they are projecting their own obsessions onto everyone else.

Almost right.

It's called proTection. Just one letter off.
Protecting our kids from the gender lobby and those who are pushing for kids to transition.
Protecting our kids from teachers who push gender crap in the classroom.
Protecting our kids from being exposed to totally inappropriate sexual content including drag shows.
Protecting our women from being forced to compete with biological men.

Look.... you folks are the ones pushing this bunch of nonsense. We are simply pushing back.

Do neither of you care about the statistically high rate of suicide and depression among LGBTQ youth? Like, it doesn't bother you at all that almost half of LGBTQ youth have considered suicide? Not even a little? Are gay teens monsters in your eyes?

Shouldn’t we be telling these kids that it’s okay to be gay? It’s okay to be same-sex attracted? It’s okay to be gender non-conforming? That those things don’t mean you were born in the wrong body? That you’re perfect as you are? Why are we telling them they need hormones and surgery? That’s the flat out wrong messaging.

In what class are teachers teaching kids that they need hormones and surgery? Specific examples l.

Any class where they read “I am Jazz” or any other book that presents the idea of being a boy or a girl as a choice rather than a biological reality is telling kids there is something inherently wrong with who they are.

Along with having those books promoted in school libraries.

I'm not an expert on this, but I have seen accounts of people who are transgender say that they have always felt like they were born in the wrong body and that they truly feel like they were supposed to be the opposite sex. Just calling themselves gender non conforming doesn't relieve the extreme discomfort they feel. They said that they felt this way when they were very young, before anyone else knew or before they really understood what that meant. I'm sure that's not everyone, but for at least some it is something they always felt even before they had the words for it. It's not like it was a topic of conversation until relatively recently. No one was planting the idea in people's heads back when no one talked about it at all.

I don't agree with anyone pushing kids to transition, to the extent that it may be occurring. But people who truly feel they were supposed to be a different gender probably won't feel any better just being told they're perfect the way they are.

Why are you answering as if LGBTQ only means transgender? Are you unaware of what LGBTQ stands for? Apparently you went to a Florida school.
