[quote=Anonymous]For background: I think trangenderism is one of the most sexist, homophobic, misogynist, and regressive belief systems to have become a dominant belief system in years. I think it is a clear attempt from the left to destroy the civil rights of women in favor of men. I think we will look back at this time period with horror in one hundred years or so, and view the advocates of transgender rights the same way we do the people who promoted eugenics one hundred years ago.

But Mr. Fernandez, what you did is wrong here. Other people have addressed the ways it should have been handled, so I won’t. But I want to be clear that you handled this incorrectly.

I’ll tell you another reason, aside from what others have said, that you are wrong: if this child is indeed a biological boy (which you don’t even know for sure!), this child’s parents may be (probably are) raising the child to be entitled and encouraged to trample over the spaces and rights of biological girls. We don’t know for sure, to start with, but it seems like a likely possibility.

But even assuming that’s all true, you acted like a bully yourself here. In general, child bullies who are on the receiving end of bullying from adults just learn how to become worse bullies. Putting aside this situation, and speaking generally, all that happens when an adult bully bullies a child bully is that the child learns how to bully even more. It doesn’t teach the lesson the adult thinks.

So all you’ve done here is taught a child who is already likely being taught bullying behaviors that adults can bully too. That’s never going to accomplish your ultimate goal, which I assume is to demonstrate how the parents are teaching their child a misogynist and regressive belief system. By your actions, you’re probably hardened the family and likely entrenched them further.

In short, you bullied a child who is likely already being badly treated by that child’s own parents. That’s terrible across the board. There is no world in which what you did makes the ultimate issue you are trying to address [i]better[/i]. You don’t bully kids to make your point and successfully make that point.

Also coming here to try to drum up support is just weird. Sorry, but it is. [/quote]
