[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not right wing. But where I live (deep blue state, deep blue district, deep blue school board) the only serious efforts at book banning have come from the left. There aren’t enough right-wingers here to even try it.

The left here has also tried to decimate rigor in education, kept the schools closed for far longer than necessary, enacted restorative justice that destroyed classroom discipline, and stopped having kids read whole books because whole books were too hard to understand.

I just can’t see the Democrats as the party of education any more. [/quote]

The dumbing down of education is most definitely coming from the left.  The idea that kids should now only be assigned excerpts to read because they "couldn't possibly" manage to read entire books comes from the left.  Our all-D school board advocates idiotic policies like this.  [/quote]

What do their republican counterparts think of science? [/qu
You mean like there's unlimited numbers of genders?  That science???[/quote]
There’s plenty of research on how brain structure doesnt always match external genetallia.  It’s perfectly defensible to say that some people are born the “wrong” gender. [/quote]

hmm- while I don't deny that people have psychological problems that lead to them feeling like they don't fit into the cultural stereotype of male or female coded behavior- there is no physiological difference in the male or female brain.  hormones will -temporarily- alter the way our nervous system behaves but it is not linked to our genitalia.

the whole trans gender thing is based on the false premise that gender is not an artifact of culture and is not solely and expression of  cultural norms, which are mutable and it is therefore a mental disorder reacting to the extremely toxic expression of gender present in our society which needs to be altered and addressed- NOT the physical bodies of young people (even 18 year olds).

young girls certainly do  not have to and SHOULD not have to give space to anyone. Women have historically always been forced to make space - I think that its time that we took ALLL the space and forcing women to have to consider anyones feelings is sexist, chauvinist and wrong.  there are many many cultures that leave space for a third gender- it is ok for trans people to occupy that space but if women don't want to give them space, then it is absolutely oppressive to force women.   to force women , as a  body in culture, to do anything that they don't want to do is oppression. It is absolutely disgusting to tell women that the biological realities of  female bodies do not make them female but  some nebulous culturally normative "feelings" do.

can someone define for me exactly what is this female gender? how does it express itself?? what makes someone a female- in her mind? TBH is actually want to know. what makes one "feel' female as opposed to male?? [/quote]
