[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This pronoun fad is going to deliver the White House to a conservative in a few years and it’s tragic. The wound will be totally self-inflicted. Call it attention-seeking or naval-gazing or what you will, but the trans/non-binary trend is turning a lot of social moderates away. Ask parents of middle schoolers how many girls they know who have become trans/non-binary. This is far from just natural variation in gender expression: it’s the hot new thing to do.[/quote] As a parent of a middle school girl I fully agree.[/quote] Agree as well. Another middle school girl parent. We are getting a conservative in 2024 because of this Sh$%T. [/quote] Because young people are doing a stupid thing right now? How does that even track? Young people are constantly finding ways to annoy their elders. This one looks like a real live wire in terms of doing that. And big deal. In ten years, most of the kids who are calling themselves “trans” or “binary” will be back to calling themselves by their birth gender. The kids who are really, truly trans will have felt supported and loved and like people were trying to understand them. Oh noes. - Democrat who thinks the pronoun “they/them” is idiotic but acknowledges that there have always been non-binary and trans people.[/quote] Except a bunch of those kids will have taken cross-sex hormones and had mastectomies, because the medical community is treating this as something requiring affirmation, rather than seeing it as the “way to annoy their elders” that many of us recognize it as. People have been booted off Twitter for the crime of “misgendering” someone. Teachers have lost their jobs for not going along with it. I wish it were being treated the same as goth or punk or hippies or emos or grunge were treated in the past. But it’s not. And that’s deeply concerning. [/quote]
