[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The posts here are so weird.  People are acting like a part time social transition at school is like catching the plague.  If they're keeping it secret from you, they're obviously scared to tell you for a reason.  The replies read like "I'm okay with the gays as long as my kid isn't one of them".

I hate that so many cisgender people try to act like they're experts on transgender people despite not knowing any or perhaps knowing a trans person in passing.

100 percent agreed. Nothing happening in MCPS is anything but a social transition. They aren't giving out T in the health room. This is literally as simple as a nickname and a pronoun. It's so so so mundane, and getting dragged into culture wars over it is a terrible use of everyone's precious life on this earth.

Exactly!

I think what’s happening is that people now know a little more about trans people than the did before (which was nothing at all before).  They’re acting like pronouns a gateway drug to medical transition.  Pronouns changes and a gender affirming name aren’t some slippery slope to being trans.  They act like it’s some emergency and every kid out there is swapping genders.  My own kids aren’t trans and they’re genetically related to and live with me.  A trans person.

I’ve been this way my entire life.  Just because I didn’t have a social transition in HS in the 90’s doesn’t mean I wasn’t closeted.  I think parents are going to be in for a shock when their kids are “cured” of being trans until they get out of the house and suddenly become transgender again.[/quote]
