[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is because of this issue that I cannot call myself a liberal any more. I am female. When I was in high school, I was not girly, I did not fit in, I crushed on other girls, and I possessed (and still do) many attributes and strengths more commonly associated with males, and I had depression and anxiety. I believe that if this had been a thing at the time, I would very likely have concluded that I was trans. It is TERRIFYING to me that “affirmation,” surgery and hormones are the go-to treatment now for young people in the throes of figuring out who they are. I am not happy at all that that transgenderism is being normalized. I am so glad this wasn’t really a thing yet when I was growing up. I am afraid for my young daughter who exhibits many of the non gender conforming traits that I did. I agree with a PP that the movement is, at its heart, anti-woman. I don’t care what FCPS says about it. I will not keep my kids out of Sex Ed for this but I will make sure they understand that sex is defined by gametes and not feelings or personality characteristics. I will also ensure that my children understand the mechanism behind all rational discussion and scientific research on this being shut down.[/quote] Why are you “afraid” for your young DD. She can’t engage in any medical treatment without your consent. If you think her gender expression is just a phase she will grow out of... BTW, non-conforming gender expression is not the same as transgender identity. I’ve raised two tomboys. Today, one is straight and gender confirming. The other is lesbian and gender conforming.[/quote] I will not kind my own business if my daughter at age 18 - which is still really young! - is caught up in this hysteria and begins to medically “transition” with permanent effect including sterility. I will fight it tooth and nail. Sorry, not sorry.[/quote]
