Rachael Dolezal lied about her previous bout of Caucasianism to gain an advantage in the workplace. I’m speaking about an individual who previously and openly identified as a member of a particular race and then became another race without concealing their past identification.

If you’re having a strong reaction to that statement it means that you view it as politically motivated and not the least bit grounded in science. If you say “No” then you have to discredit “Gender Fluidity” because gender/sex is an actual biological construct easily proved by science while race is more arbitrary and sociologically determined.

This is very interesting. Especially since so many have a variety of "races" in their family histories.

Google “Rachel Dolezal” and see how her declaring herself Black worked out for her.

Bu yes, to be consistent, if we need to accept someone’s psychologized view of their own gender, we need to extend that to other areas of their genetic makeup as well. Because you wouldn’t want to offend.

Of course. You can be race fluid. Especially in college admissions!

The trans movement, even what seems as innocuous as binding, has severe physical effects not mention mental ones. These decisions are not for children or teenagers to make. They need to wait until they are adults. And we as parents and teachers must stop the madness. The affirmative therapy is a crock. Would we tell anorexic girls you feel like you are fat so for now on we will call you fatty and help you achieve your lowest weight? Insanity. It's not anti trans so ask girls to wait until they are adults.


Comparing being trans to be anorexic, on the other hand, is incredibly bigoted. Did you spark a bowl before you wrote this chestnut?


And PP you missed the point of the comparison. Critical reading. It's about affirmative therapy. You wouldn't tell someone yes you are a dog because that's what they feel. People are affirming kids trans identity as young as kindergarten and placing kids as young as 11 on hormone blockers so that they will literally never be able to physically come into their sexuality. The point is that you would not do with that with any other mental health condition and yes, especially in the teenage years, most trans issues are actually body dysmorphia and/or a WHOLE slew of other mental illness that are not even being explored or addressed. That's malpractice and child abuse.

I do agree. If they want hormones as an adult that is their decision with the help of a certified doctor. Parents who “help” their child in this way are harmful and naïve. Some teens experiment and then decide they are actually the gender the were born as.

NCS - "Why a Girl's School"

StoneRidge - "All Girls. Catholic. Independent."
Visitation - "All Girls Advantage"







Why? Why then even have all girls schools?


It's not an either/or situation, you know. Again, what gives with trying to dumb down the complexity of this issue?

the question is, do these schools still believe there is an advantage to an "all Girls education" they continue to market it.
