Leaked Documents and Audio from the California Teachers Association Conference Reveal Efforts to Subvert Parents on Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation
Most people on this thread? Big surprise, I am a gay woman fighting against bigots using religion to harm their kids and those of others.
These teachers are no way grooming anyone, that is a hysterical lie.
They SAW kids looking up LGBTQ stuff when in online learning and tried to help. Now, I might have made an announcement to the entire class vs to the one student, but they in no way are grooming anyone. You are a bunch of liars.
Yet you have no idea what the sexual preferences are of the commenters here, including me, just as you have no idea if any are cross-dressers (trans). You don't get a gold star for announcing you are gay. You do get lumps of coal for wanting to come between parents and children. Stay away from children.
I DON'T CARE what your sexual ORIENTATION (not preference, that shows you are ignorant and/or bigoted). And calling a trans person a cross dresser shows us all you would certainly damage a teen who ended up LGBTQ. And honey, you are WAY TOO LATE insisting I stay away from children, I donate and volunteer with homeless LGBTQ teens who's parents (people like you) threw them in the street. I will do more to help LGBTQ teens than you will ever help a single person other than yourself.
Those teachers clearly stated that they were monitoring the children looking for recruits. This is exactly the strategy pedophiles use. They were recruiting and grooming plain and simple.
No, I will not be told to shut up by some rando dude online. I will stop fighting against bigotry when you all learn how to get your own life and let others live their own.
You mean they spied on the kids' online searches, and "volunteered" to tell the kids all about "gender fluidity", whether the kids wanted to hear it or not. Seen it done, and it needs to be stopped.
This agenda exists in Canada too and the momentum is quite strong. I know teachers who would have no problem with subverting parental control because they the teachers think they know best and don't respect parents. They are not in partnership with parents, but their own identity politics and political leanings. If the agenda is to get children to develop their reading and critical thinking skills, well, that's their job. Their job should not be to recruit 6 graders with the idea of cultivating LGBTQers.
Has it never occurred to you that if you had grown up today, you would have been labeled a “boy,” sterilized, and put on cross sex hormones?
I can’t get my head around gay people that support “queer” garbage. It’s literally a parasitic movement of mostly straight people who have taken over everything gay people created for themselves. Queer people *hate* lesbians. Young lesbians are being brainwashed by “queer” men in dresses that they must sleep with penises, ffs. They’re relentless about it.
This is not in any way like the fight for gay liberation, or women’s rights, even though the queer crowd will tell you it is. This is an entitlement movement, created and funded by autogynephiles and paedophiles, marketed as a “civil rights movement” to sneak it past the left as something good. It is not.
So now I’m wondering if you are actually a lesbian who lives in a bubble, or in fact a dude who calls himself a lesbian because you’re an entitled, “queer” person, yourself
You can always find the libturd in a conversation. They're the one reading every post repeatedly hoping to find a typo so that they can pretend that a typo is some sort of an example of a weak mind. Of course, it couldn't have anything to do with extra large hands, being in a hurry, poor eyesight, distraction nor a defective keyboard, could it, genius? Among your kind, that is what passes for "substantive factual debate". "I found a typo so I won the argument". Yuh...wutever....
I wouldn't know. I'd have to take your word for it, as I've never run into one that wasn't a libturd who was losing an argument & grasping at straws. If that fails, they can always try to play the race card instead.
Ad-hominem fallacies are perhaps my biggest pet peeve! I try to explain that because they cannot find a legit response they feel the need to attack a persons character or morality. In response they often just keep repeating their same baseless argument. It's like they are stuck on repeat. BTW I have seen people of all stances use ad-hominem. They really need to teach the media about the meaning of ad-hominem. They are the worst! I am not choosing sides in the Rittenhouse trial but ad-hominem probably caused him to win the case. Even legal prosecutions these days are vulnerable to such childish behavior.
No. Rittenhouse won his case because of (a) video tape evidence showing him running away from the mob chasing him and (b) the testimony of the prosecution’s main witness, the guy who got his arm blown off by Rittenhouse because he pointed his Glock In Rittenhouse’s face. Add in the way the self-defense laws are written and the nature of gun regulations in Wisconsin in particular and you have a situation where no matter how outrageous Rittenhouse’s presence was, he was still going to get off.
Note that I am in no way defending him. His lack of judgment was typical of an unsupervised minor male with a fascination for guns and the police, who saw himself as Robin Hood. Wouldn’t it have been great if his father, who lives in Kenosha, had said to him, listen kid, put the AR-15 back in the shed and go have a milkshake with your friends. Nothing good will come of your good intentions. But no.
There were and are and will always be ad hominem attacks on Rittenhouse’s character, lies about who he was, where he came from and what his intentions were. It is appalling to hear public figures, politicians, and journalists regurgitate these falsehoods over and over again, as though Rittenhouse was a psychotic Unabomber type with a racist vendetta, driving across 37 state lines so he could go and kill blacks, with his big old gun on the front seat. It would be laughable if it weren’t so pernicious to hear people with a big platform lie and lie and lie some more.
But the case was decided on legal grounds, the kind of grounds that need to be revisited and probably won’t be, because we love our guns so much.
I recommend a current article in Quillette by a legal scholar named Ronald Sullivan, which explains the rule of law and how it accrued to Rittenhouse in this case. Sullivan is also not a fan of Rittenhouse’s actions, but thank goodness he knows the law and writes and thinks with an objectivity that we rarely have access to anymore.
Can't be one of ours. Trash morals are the domain of the left. That's what this whole (hole) article is about. You can have her. She's likely right out of one of your "Gender Queer" (like the kids' book) recruitment orientation gulags.
"Recruitment orientation gulags"? Apparently lying is not one of the trash morals you object to. But I've always found the right to be full of moral relativists.
Kiddie GSAs for kids who are under 18 should not exist, especially if the adult leader/advisor also works for the school and has any chance of being the kid's classroom teacher. They have too much influence. Further, school personel should not list or request pronouns which is a litergy of the religion/cult of Gender Ideology and goes against the separation of church and state.
I agree but they don't. I really think it's inappropriate to have sex and gender identity clubs under 18. And, how would you keep your kid out when her friends go as "allies"? They'd find a way to attend if they don't have a lot of pals. Then they are lead to the weird side through a series of little steps. These clubs tend to be part of school assemblies but are generally not mentioned to parents.
And, a school principal cannot get the teachers inline regarding the names and pronouns they use on your kid even when they want to do so. They'll use other names and pronouns behind your back.
It is not a sex club. What a lie. And straight kids who support their gay friends cannot be "converted" you fool. I am so sorry you are a mother. Your poor kids, I hope they disown you when they are 18.
Kids need these when their parents are filthy bigots, it helps the teens to not end up dead. I guess you would prefer a kid of yours who is gay to kill themselves than be gay.
The only "filthy bigot" I see here is you because you're attacking parents who wish to protect their children from grooming. It seems to me "Proud Pedo" would be a better moniker for you, but "Democrat" describes a similar character defect, so that's fine too. If there was a block button on here, I'd use it on you soooo fast.
This is not grooming and you cannot make a person trans or gay. People like you cause LGBTQ teens to end up homeless, on the streets, or dead. I will fight against bigots like you to protect kids till I die. So guess what, get used to me, I am not going anywhere lady. I will protect kids from you
You cannot make a person Gay, or Trans? Perhaps not, but you can certainly influence younger kids into living that life style, maybe go as far as making them try it out. That is absolutely possible. How else would you explain the explosion in young teens all suddenly Gay and Trans over the last few years, are you really stupid enough to believe that they all suddenly believe its ok to "be who they are" or is it just the trendy thing to do and they also want to fit in. You really don't know anything about children or young teens at all. What you know, is what you have been told to say. Calling people "Bigots" classic buzzword, bet you have called people any number of "****phobes" and many of the -"ist's" recently as well, haven't you? Have you tried thinking for yourself for 30 minutes, or did that hurt to much not to be told what to do, think, and say?
Seriously, did you grow up in a bubble? Did you once see kids in Middle and High school who will do nearly ANYTHING to be accepted by their peers? We are seeing adults claim to be Gay, Bi, and Trans just for some glamor and acceptance, you think that is outside of the realm for people who hardly truly know who they are?
I cant even read your idiotic comments anymore, you lack of knowledge makes my brain hurt. You lack the simple ability to learn, or even debate in a way that doesn't make everything personal.
Any teacher actively trying to hide something from Parents, is up to no good. UNLESS it is actual abuse going on in the home. You really think every single one of these parents would be against their child being Gay if that were the case? Uhhhh NO. I certainly wouldn't care if my children were gay. I just want them to live a fulfilling life and be happy. I still wouldn't want any of them to spend any time with teachers like this, especially in their covert clubs, or with "teachers" that would openly lie to me. This stuff is seriously deranged and disturbed behavior from those "teachers".
Your sentiments are over-reaching. It is inappropriate to “protect kids from you.” Each parent has the right to imbue his/her values and morals into their own children. This debate is non-binary no pun intended); you are not 100% right and neither is the parent. Instead of juvenile name calling, how about dialoguing — listening to and learning from one another?
Thankfully your views are irrelevant and LGBTQ teens need support that parents like you fail to offer, thus causing many teens to literally kill themselves, shame on you! And lady, you are one nutty one
You want to attribute suicide to the parents on mass scale? Try looking at the Trans community, whos suicide rate is outrageously high even after transition. I am not one to tell what/who someone can or cant be. Do your thing. But with statistics like that, there is something serious happening and its not just some people calling them names.
You name keeps popping up with some ridiculous personal attacks and bullshit comments. I suggest you look outside your bubble for information, perhaps you can learn something rather than just being a printer for talking points. All you do is personally attack people in every comment. You must be an awfully sad person. I hope you find a reason to be happy, but with an attitude like that, I cant say I am surprised.
I contribute the high suicide level in LGBTQ teens to BIGOTS LIKE YOU, many who are indeed parents. My own parents would have thrown me out if they knew I was gay back then. I am fighting to protect kids with parents like my own!
As far as trans people, they face the MOST DISCRIMINATION and outright HATE from BIGOTS LIKE YOU, no wonder they too face mental health issues and inability to get good jobs etc.
I suggest you look outside your bible honey, I have trans friends who are quite happy, but they do not know you.
Lol I am positive your alleged trans friends would probably like me more. You know literally nothing about me but constantly call me all these names. I don't even own a bible and am not a particularly religious person. So wrong about that (and everything else but that's for another time)
Trans people face "the most discrimination"? Lol from who?
Also the high suicide rate is in trans people in general and not just Teens. It's not just because some people made fun of them or didn't agree with their decisions. Plenty of literature about it. But it stems from many places. Sometimes it's not being satisfied with their transition, or still feeling wrong after it, or even after realizing that it wasn't the right thing to do and now they feel like their lives are over because of all the harm they have done to their body and mind. All very real situations that should be looked at SERIOUSLY before someone make such a significant life altering decision.
I have never hated anyone for something as frivolous as being gay or having different views on gender. Weather or not I agree has no bearing on how I treat someone. Because I believe that people are MUCH more than their sexual preferences, skin color, or any other random things that people like you are trying to lay down as defining characteristics.
They aren't. There is a reason that I don't walk around all day wearing shirts how "proud" I am of being my particular race, gender, sexual preference. Because literally none of those are who I am.
I ASSURE you any self respecting trans person would not like you one bit. Not if you here working to harm them and lives. And you know nothing other than what you read in anti-trans places, you fool only yourself that anyone who is not a bigot would like you
These groups should not exist for under aged kids, but where they do exist parents should insist the school air the documentary "The Call is Coming From Inside the House"
& the Teachers Unions steal billions of taxpayers money every year & every time Democrats pass a spending bill they include paying the Teachers Unions. They have tons of cash on hand but don’t improve schools in squalid conditions or give good teachers raises, instead they spend the money on lawyers to go after parents or pay lawsuits and use the money for political purposes.
Prove otherwise. I can confirm most of that is true, especially in the California School system. Plenty of money, most of it does not get spent for the benefit of the Children, or most of the Teachers. As stated by several of my teachers from back when I was in High School (early 2000s) up until recently explained by some of those very same teachers who are currently at the same High School, and my Ex, whom was a teacher. I am inclined to believe the people that are currently in these positions rather than someone who must believe that Government fixes things...
Don't make a comment unless you can back it up with literally ANYTHING, "Proud Democrat". Instead your option was to attack that person personally. Whatever is going on in your life, with a little effort you can fix it and be happy for once, rather than attacking other people in a shallow bid that it will fix your miserable existence.
Prove something is not happening? You are not very bright are you? So, your friends are stealing tax money that is meant for kids educations? That is what this sounds like like. AGain, not very bright using anecdotal (look it up) stories to accuse thousands of people of stealing education tax money.
I suggest you and your buddy who I replied to offer some evidence for YOUR claims, and not demand I prove a negative. I see you are quite young, did you ever actually graduate that high school? LOL
I am fighting to protect teens from bigots like all those here, and am happy to do so. Those who are miserable, like you must be, fight to discriminate against others. The rest of us protect all to live their lives as they wish.
Man I started ignoring you nearly immediately because you lack general skills of conversations without acting like a petulant moron.
But first of all a "lie" can't write anything. And so we both agree that teachers aren't stealing tax dollars. That's good.
You need to learn to take an L when it comes. It's super important for individual growth, which you seem to have done none of throughout your life. I don't know how old you are. If I were to guess contextually I would assume somewhere around 13-15 based on your argumentative tactics and lack of ability to speak, make a cohearant argument, respond without calling someone whatever buzzword you think is currently important.
I suggest you get better. No one here, maybe a couple but I don't have the time to browse the whole thread, but from what I have seen no one agrees with you. That's not because everyone is terrible and you are the only one with a moral compass. It's a you problem, you are the issue. Go take some time to yourself and let the internet do whatever it will. I'm not sure you are cut out for discussion on the internet. As you clearly have zero respect for anyone that doesn't share exactly your beliefs (probably not for those that do either)
You don't know everything, I doubt you know a lot about any subject. It's ok, you can learn but to learn you need to be able to read or watch things you don't like. There is truth everywhere, even if you don't agree with something it doesn't make it not true. Welcome to life.
Spare me, I do not care about you or what you think of me, I know what I am, and I know who I help. Why do you bigots need to write paragraph after paragraph full of BS? Try getting a job
For some reason my comments keep getting deleted. This is a religion. These people are missionaries for this religion. They are converting children without their knowledge. It does not matter to the missionaries whether the child ever believes in their same beliefs or ever attends their "church" or reads their manuscripts. They only care that the child performs the acts. It perpetuates their strength on the earth.
Don't people understand yet? It is satanic. These are age old satanic rituals and they don't care who is doing them as long as they are done. People are duped and spell-cast. Wake up to reality. Turn from these ideas and look for righteousness
Contacting your representative probably won't change a thing. Do to the fact that this religion is very prominent and has been for thousands of years. It has evolved, but remains a constant. Many of the people that follow this religion have made their way into key positions and are making the laws and guidelines.
The best way to stave off this perversion of society is to deny its presence. Do not give credence to their beliefs. Don't be a participant by staying quiet and standing idly by.
We see the evidence. The short LIST: legalizing no-fault divorce (part of their religion- chemical marriage), encouraging fornication (part of their religion), legalizing abortion (part of their religion), legalizing homosexuality (part of their religion), transgenderism (a primary focal-point of their religion). And YES, these subjects have all been pushed through every facet of media known to the human race. People are blatantly lying when they say that these themes are not being propagated. What comes next, you ask? Bestiality and pedophilia (Both part of their religion). Do not kid yourself.
Since this IS a religion it should not be taught in public school. They are purposely masking their intent and have been since public schooling was instituted. Your best bet is to know that all the above mentioned in the short LIST is wrong. Do not be swayed by their Bernays-esque tactics. In your own life don't participate in the short LIST. Don't encourage others to take part in the short LIST. BE THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU IS RIGHT BECAUSE THEY ARE WRONG. And stay strong! Stay Strong!Oh and P.S. Start noticing how many "women" on TV have Adam's apples then you will only begin to see the bigger picture here. AND REMEMBER: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Which also could include: Not listening to their music, not watching their movies, not watching their tell-a-vision platforms, not playing their video games, not reading their magazines and not buying their crappy books.
Oh please, do boycott all that is made or done by all LGBTQ folks, you will have a bad hair day for the rest of your life (LOL) never see many movies, miss out on lots of good music. I doubt you read books anyway, so no loss there.
Wow, where did you get your weed, you must be high as a kite to come up with this tripe. I suppose you call yourself "Christian" when in fact you are a filthy hater
3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
You use your religion as a way to assert you are OK to discriminate against those different from yourself. And still feel superior to others who you probably believe will burn in hell.
Keep your cut and paste bible quotes to yourself, anyone can do the same and prove the opposite of your view.
I was especially struck by the young woman who "transitioned" and detransition within the space of 1 year - with lasting harm. She said she started as an "ally" like our daughter who is as yet not physically harmed. This is what is so bad about middle school and high school "Alliance" Groups. IMO they should not exist but if they do it ought to be required for them to watch this video and be allies of mental health.
To: Proud Democrat ~ Just because someone has a different outlook on something does not make them a bigot. It makes them an individual. It's ironic that what you claim in your comments are exactly what these parents are doing. They are fighting to protect their kids.
It is obvious that education is teaching children these alternative deathstyles.
In the summer of 2021 California Gov. Gavin Newsom approved a final state budget that includes $3 million for LGBTQ cultural competency training for public school teachers.
We all know what that means.
Grooming used to occur by molestation, now they are warping children under the guise of education. There are zero benefits to children being privy to any of this perversion.
I am sorry that your parents must not of protected you properly. I am sorry that you were molested and taken advantage of. It sounds like you are very angry and have much to work through. Forgiveness is a good way to begin and I hope you're not reprobate. If you're a sodomite, according to Romans 1 KJV you are of a reprobate mind. No one wants that for anyone, especially their children. We don't want a Sodom and Gomorrah. There is great merit in any attempt to thwart that outcome.
Scientifically, no one is born homosexual or transgender. It is proven. It upsets the LGBTQs, but it is true. So, yes one must turn to homosexuality or transgenderism. It is a choice. Just like it's a choice to hold a gun to one's head. No one here (most likely) is out killing homosexual or trans people or convincing them to kill themselves. If you look at the rate of homicides for the homosexual/trans community it is perpetrated by a partner. Research it. The fact remains these people are attacking each other. We all know that sodomites are pedophiles. Look at the research. It is staggering. You already know this.
I would be highly concerned if parents weren't speaking up about all this.
I am encouraged by knowing that these parents love and care about their children and the children in their community.
Just in closing, if anyone doubts their intentions: Homosexual Manifesto reprinted from The US Congressional Record. Homosexual Activist Outlines Goals of Homosexual Movement by Michael Swift, "Gay Revolutionary" from The Gay Community News, Feb.15-21 1987
"We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to crave and adore us.
Women, you cry for freedom. You say you are no longer satisfied with men; they make you unhappy. We, connoisseurs of the masculine face, the masculine physique, shall take your men from you then. We will amuse them; we will instruct them; we will embrace them when they weep. Women, you say you wish to live with each other instead of with men. Then go and be with each other. We shall give your men pleasures they have never known because we are foremost men too, and only one man knows how to truly please another man; only one man can understand the depth and feeling, the mind and body of another man.
All laws banning homosexual activity will be revoked. Instead, legislation shall be passed which engenders love between men.
All homosexuals must stand together as brothers; we must be united artistically, philosophically, socially, politically and financially. We will triumph only when we present a common face to the vicious heterosexual enemy.
If you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer, at us, we will stab you in your cowardly hearts and defile your dead, puny bodies.
We shall write poems of the love between men; we shall stage plays in which man openly caresses man; we shall make films about the love between heroic men which will replace the cheap, superficial, sentimental, insipid, juvenile, heterosexual infatuations presently dominating your cinema screens. We shall sculpt statues of beautiful young men, of bold athletes which will be placed in your parks, your squares, your plazas. The museums of the world will be filled only with paintings of graceful, naked lads.Our writers and artists will make love between men fashionable and de rigueur, and we will succeed because we are adept at setting styles. We will eliminate heterosexual liaisons through usage of the devices of wit and ridicule, devices which we are skilled in employing.
We will unmask the powerful homosexuals who masquerade as heterosexuals. You will be shocked and frightened when you find that your presidents and their sons, your industrialists, your senators,your mayors, your generals, your athletes, your film stars, your television personalities, your civic leaders, your priests are not the safe, familiar, bourgeois, heterosexual figures you assumed them to be. We are everywhere; we have infiltrated your ranks. Be careful when you speak of homosexuals because we are always among you; we may be sitting across the desk from you; we may be sleeping in the same bed with you.
There will be no compromises. We are not middle-class weaklings. Highly intelligent, we are the natural aristocrats of the human race, and steely-minded aristocrats never settle for less. Those who oppose us will be exiled.
We shall raise vast private armies, as Mishima did, to defeat you. We shall conquer the world because warriors inspired by and banded together by homosexual love and honor are invincible as were the ancient Greek soldiers.
The family unit-spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity, hypocrisy and violence--will be abolished. The family unit, which only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated. Perfect boys will be conceived and grown in the genetic laboratory. They will be bonded together in communal setting, under the control and instruction of homosexual savants.
All churches who condemn us will be closed. Our only gods are handsome young men. We adhere to a cult of beauty, moral and esthetic. All that is ugly and vulgar and banal will be annihilated. Since we are alienated from middle-class heterosexual conventions, we are free to live our lives according to the dictates of the pure imagination. For us too much is not enough.
The exquisite society to emerge will be governed by an elite comprised of gay poets. One of the major requirements for a position of power in the new society of homoeroticism will be indulgence in the Greek passion. Any man contaminated with heterosexual lust will be automatically barred from a position of influence. All males who insist on remaining stupidly heterosexual will be tried in homosexual courts of justice and will become invisible men.
We shall rewrite history, history filled and debased with your heterosexual lies and distortions. We shall portray the homosexuality of the great leaders and thinkers who have shaped the world. We will demonstrate that homosexuality and intelligence and imagination are inextricably linked, and that homosexuality is a requirement for true nobility, true beauty in a man.
We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the ferocious bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to play seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows throughout the ages. We too are capable of firing guns and manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution.
Tremble, hetero swine, when we appear before you without our masks."
I am not going to read this trash, but I will tell you you fit the definition of a bigot to a T. And you think you hide your hate, or fool anyone into believing you love your neighbors by abusing your religion.
And then, you do all you can to harm those just trying to live their lives without harassment. You post LIE AFTER LIE and share conspiracy theories and flat out BIGOTRY and HATE Shame on you. If there is a hell, SEE YOU THERE! LOL LOL
I disagree with this stance myself. I wonder whether she is trying to walk a fine line and is letting /leading her readers to "complete the square" for her on this one? You might try reaching out to her directly for a one-one interaction. I hope we have a President DeSantis. - LM
Children should never have these surgeries, cross sex hormones, off label cancer drugs, or "affirmation" as the opposite sex. This bill sounds an awful lot like Republicans trying to carve out "religious exceptions" from Gender Ideology. Gender Ideology is a cult religion itself and we need to have enforcement of separation of church and state in the public schools to keep it out and protect the children across the board. Is it ok to chop the head off a child if the parent consents? In ancient Rome it was if the father said so but I we should be living in more civilized times.
"Affirmation" absolutely is grooming. It is a very serious psychological intervention - and incredibly harmful. Instead of grooming children we might get the adults talk therapy so that they understand and cope with reality. Also, it violates a child's human rights to destroy future sexual function and fertility. This "transgender moment" must be thrown on the trash dump of history. We need more strong politicians like Ron DeSantis.
1) Contact your Representative in Congress and both Senators. Ask them to co-sponsor Senator Tom Cotton's Empower Parents to Protect Their Kids Act, S.3037:
Include in your message a link to this article to explain why S.3037 is needed.
2) Contact your state representatives and ask them to introduce similar legislation at the state level. Again, link to this article.
Note: I am a lifelong liberal Democrat (age 66) who has never voted for a Republican. But this is a cult and it needs to be stopped. It transcends politics.
Hi, MarkS. Same. I'm a lifelong liberal, age 60, who has voted mostly for Democrats until the last few election cycles. I also happen to be lesbian & have never had children. But I am concerned for OTHER people's children & I'm appalled at what is happening in our schools now.
For years I have been getting recommendations from a local environmental attorney who knows the candidates for judges and sometimes recommends Republicans over Dems. But in the last several elections, I have also been carefully studying all the candidates via their websites & FB pages, the Columbus Dispatch online voter guide that allows a side-by-side comparison of multiple candidates, the League of Women Voters' Voter's Guide, Ballotpedia, and candidate panels presented by the Franklin County Consortium on Good Government. I has become a grueling process every election, taking me SEVERAL DAYS of solid research to finally decide for whom to vote.
I am distressed at the number of "True Believers" who are so filled with hate for the GOP that they accept everything the Dem Party does as being on the side of good (never mind that there are principled Republicans still in office, like Mitt Romney & Liz Cheney, and I'd feel enormously relieved if they were President instead of Biden!)
I agree that this is a cult that has taken over. It's misogynistic, REGRESSIVE, anti-liberal (what is more liberal than the right to free speech & freedom of thought & association?), and, ironically, homophobic, and, most dangerous of all, it's AUTHORITARIAN & INDOCTRINATES children!!
I feel so politically homeless b/c there are so few of us warning about these things. Most of the Left is engaged in tribalism & groupthink. (Most of the Right is, too, but, regardless of their motives, conservatives are in the right to oppose the indoctrination of children & introducing concepts to them that are not age-appropriate, and that are purely a belief system. Gender identity ideology is a religion. It has a priestly class ("trans" people, whatever that even means anymore), prophets (Butler, Foucault, politicians, mainstream & Left-wing media), dogma (the "trans women are women" mantra), heretics who are hated & persecuted (trans people who speak out against what is happening, falsely accused people like JK Rowling, who never said anything that was hateful toward trans people and only has spoken against the cult & for women's safety & "identity", detransitioners), & infidels (any "liberal" who doesn't agree & affirm the cult's "statement of faith" 100%).
We are in that last category.
Thanks for your post giving information on how to help. DOING something is the only thing that will keep me from sinking into depression at the overwhelming odds against us. Since this was posted just over 6 months ago, I'm guessing it's too late to act on this legislation??
You are in fact the bigot. People aren’t hateful of others just because they don’t agree with them. But I get it makes it easy to name call line that because you believe it discredits someone who doesn’t see things the way you do.
But it is. Being a bigot means being intolerant of those with different opinions or beliefs. If you are intolerant of people who disagree with you, to the point where you are willing to seek to have the government or their employers punish them by causing them harm or your mob harasses them and seeks to silence them instead of listening to and addressing their concerns, you're a bigot. And you are so lacking in self-awareness that you defend your bigotry. The fact that you don't want freedom of speech & thought means that YOU are the authoritarian. Authoritarians are the ultimate bigots because they use force to compel others,— through punishment or simply the FEAR of punishment,— to be silent in criticizing them.
Says someone who has no foundation to their argument. I’m invoking my right to state these “GSA” groups are spreading misinformation to our kids. There, that’s all it should take to have them removed, right Proud Dem?
I love how every comment you write is filled with hate…yet everyone else is a bigot! And to say something so despicable as “I hope your kids if you have any disown you for being hateful” just shows how unaccepting you are. You try and preach “acceptance” for people you feel need it, and in the same sentence wish hatred on others. How do you expect anyone to take your opinion seriously when every comment/reply is a personal attack?
I am intolerant of your intolerance. And I would never wish any child have a bigot for a parent, that is not best at all. You call me hateful, I know I am fighting to protect kids from hate coming from anti-trans people like you and the bunch here. You will ever accept trans people, so all the rest of can hope for is that you mind own business and leave trans people alone.
Yeah, because heterosexual men NEVER sexually abuse their daughters. They NEVER rape women & girls. They NEVER commit incest through coercion or force. Your homophobia is SO obvious. You won't admit that MEN, in general, do almost all the raping & sexual crimes, regardless of their sexual orientation. You want to blame LESBIANS, of all people, and want to take their kids away from them, even when their kids are thriving in a happy, loving, decent home. Yeah, and put them into foster care, so heterosexual men can abuse them there!
The fact that you attack Abigail for being fair and rational and NOT bigoted against people because they belong to a certain demographic, shows just how filled with hate you are. Parents have a right to KNOW what is happening with their kids in schools, and schools have no right to treat children as if they are adults and capable of making their own decisions about confusing things like pronouns or their "identity". If you want to be angry, be angry at countries who take children away from parents, not for physical or sexual abuse, but because they don't want to participate in the GASLIGHTING that is going on today in which boys compete in girl's sports or take scholarships designated for ACTUAL GIRLS away from girls, or win "Woman of the Year" awards, or who are recorded in police reports & reported by the media as WOMEN when they engage in pedophilia or sexual assault or raping women.
But you don't actually CARE about children! You just want to spew hate toward ALL LGB people, all T people, & toward Abigail for not sharing in your irrational hatred & prejudice. Here's an idea: How about we just people by the CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER, not by their demographic? How about we don't make sweeping accusations of entire segments of society? (That always ends badly.) How about we encourage the GOOD role models in the LGB community, not be adversarial to ALL people in that group? How about we not condemn people without evidence? How about we NOT attack every trans person for this gender identity ideology that does not represent their values, beliefs, or lives? There ARE trans people speaking out against this, just as there are LGB people speaking out against it. Why not be ALLIES against the IDEOLOGY threatening ALL of our children? Ideologies are the enemy, not our fellow humans.
My kids have all gone to this school. My youngest is there now. Caldeira has been pushing this stuff since her own daughter transitioned to a male during the years my oldest two were there. Since then this is her main focus…all of my kids have been subjected to it in some way or another in her classroom.
The mothers who "transitioned" their daughters to male (like that's possible) will be the last to let go of promoting this. To do so such a mother would have to admit to herself that she's hurt her child. It's like these moms are trying to convince themselves the cult religion is true. In reality we've historically had a very small number of men with one of two psychological problems dividing into straight (autogynephilia) and gay (androphilic) subcategories. It's thought that a small minority of those people may benefit from medical procedures.
I think so, too. I'm no psychologist either, but there's also something up with our education establishment. How can "use your pronouns" have gained so much traction? How have our teachers been allowed to stray from teaching basic subjects? How are the unions able to do anything more than negotiate salary? What happened to respecting the values of the family? Why do we allow Gender Ideology in the schools which do not allow other religion?
I think you hit the nail on the head...why are school teachers teaching our children about SEX and SEXUAL ORIENTATION...they might as well teach kids to be atheist and than they can recruit them into Antifa.
Echoes of CEO of mermaids in the UK who took her son to Thailand to be castrated for his 16th birthday because it was illegal in UK. She now advocates affirming any child who is gender non conforming. I note the 3 kids helping her were non binary or very gender fluid, no mention of gay or lesbian
A definition of narcissism is the wish to make the real world conform to one’s fantasy. This is what Trans activists are engaged in whether they know it or not. It’s the most depraved form of narcissism that reaches for other people’s children. It will not end well for them.
I feel for her. She likely knows in her heart that she's done something horrible to her daughter and regrets it, but she can't admit it. LovingMother is right, the parents who transitioned their kids will be the last holdouts when the trans insanity comes to an end.
However, none of that excuses her behavior in the classroom. If she were covertly recruiting Muslim students for a closet, unsanctioned Christian club against their parents wishes, her district would find a way to discipline her. They may not be able to fire her, but there are lots of ways a district can make your life so miserable that you eventually quit. the fact that the school board and superintendent aren't doing those things means 1) they're supporters, or 2) they're cowards.
...they're killing themselves because they're extremely mentally ill. They have severe mental problems. Not because they were "born in the wrong body" and their parents said they were wrong.
The cognitive dissonance with you people is stunning.
The suicide rate is massive and far outpaces that of gays and lesbians, which by your measure should be killing themselves at basically the same rate "due to their parents telling them they are sinners". But that's not the case, is it?
You idiots can't reconcile the following:
A. When faced with an individual who wants to have their arms amputated because they were "born in the wrong body" and are convinced they should've been born with no arms (something called "body integrity disorder"), your answer is, of course, that they have a mental illness (because, well, they do.) But...
B. When faced with a child that wants to chop their DICK OR BREASTS off because they're convinced they were "born in the wrong body", well...that's perfectly normal. Nothing wrong there.
I will never ever stop fighting hateful bigots that cause kids to hate themselves and sometimes commit suicide due to not being able to be what their parents want them to be. LGB teens have it a bit easier today than when I was a gay teen and had parents who would have beat me than kicked me out if they knew. Trans people today face the hate and bigotry I faced as a teen, due to HATEFUL BIGOTS LIKE YOU. And your analogy is asinine. There are many of us who grew up in hate that will never stop fighting to protect LGBTQ kids, and you need to learn to accept others who are not like you. Or end up being known as a hateful bigot
Ben, it sounds like you have some sort of anger problem when you respond to a person with words like that - words you would probably call "violent" if they were used against you.
Perhaps you need to lower your testosterone dose and/or go to anger management therapy. Clearly you have a problem when all you can do is spew your impotent rage at someone whose only transgression was to voice his opinion.
Don’t be a tough guy online Mr. Bottom Surgery. Nobody needs to bend to the whims of the one transformer in the entire school. We need to stop indulging people like you in your mental illness.
I have nothing wrong with trans people in fact I have always supported equal rights with LGTBQ communities and have experimented myself....with that said there is an AGE where children do not understand themselves and they don't need to be indoctrinated by ANYONE! ESPECIALLY not untrained teachers! They don't need to be called straight, gay, trans pan, they are just kids...let them be kids. The whole sexual orientation talk needs to be put off until older teen/adulthood. Let's just normalize that people of different sexes can have feelings for each other in middle school...in high school more can be talked about but we still need to discourage sex! News flash you CANNOT KNOW your true sexual identify until you can actually have sex, everything to that point is just experimentation. Experimentation is normal but we NEED to back off this rush to label because the truth is sexuality is very, very fluid especially in young adults and teens! Some choices (by trans/pan etc) can have permanent consequences don't you think we should put this off just like we put off the choice to drink/smoke/join the military to the age of 18? I am just asking that we put this stuff off a little bit longer. Over-seuxalition is a theme of the 21st/22nd Century...children are even going through puberty sooner and the push to sexualize children at a younger age could have detrimental affects.
Please find a more mature and cogent way to express your opinion. In doing so, you will likely find an opportunity to actually dialogue with folks whose opinions differ from yours.
This is just awful! Pushing and brainwashing children is not educating them. Reading and stalking their Google searches...this is against the law. I would say GOODBYE TENURE!
My daughter had both teachers and the year she had them, I noticed certain changes. I didn’t know her daughter had transitioned to a male! This certainly explains a lot. My daughter and at least one other were clearly influenced by her.
Please refrain from stopping to the level of judging the said parent’s love for her child; using profanity and name does not buttress your viewpoint. Rather, it serves to alienate others and prevents an opportunity for meaningful dialogue.
Aw.....your kids forced to learn there are all sorts of people in the world. I bet you also refuse your kids learn about slavery, since it might hurt their fee fees
You obviously know nothing about this since your children did not attend this school. Mine did. I can post the 1000s of emails to the school if you think we are just talking about hurt feelings. It's not about the club, or the teaching when it was taught as it's supposed to be taught. It's about the subversive tactics and the outright defiance and negligent reaction to the parents asking, demanding answers for years. And it was wrong and hurt many families and students at this school. My kids were also discriminated against in classes by these teachers because they could tell their mom was onto them. I have proof to that by the way. Hey, Proud Democrat, do you support public school teacher's spying on children into their parent's home computers through Google? Using your tax dollars to do what appears criminal behavior? That a federal offense, last I checked through means of wire. And those teachers blatantly admitted tot it at a CTA conference that audio tapes they session for all participants and members to buy at cost later? They also requested other California teachers to follow their behavior at that conference. That being said, that's called indoctrination - like Hitler, Mao, etc. sounds like you support that? I would say you should check with all the students harmed by these teachers - not just the LGBTQ ones. Hmmm.
Oy vey, GMAFB. I am SO SICK and tired of all the anti LGBTQ people like yourself. I am older, and went through hell as a teen due to hateful parents and teachers and I will fight like hell to protect the kids today to be who they are and not be subject to discrimination and hate from the likes of you
Ok. So how will you protect my kids from discrimination they encountered. Please fill me in. You said you would fight like hell. Keep your comments coming they are great evidence in the future lawsuit aimed at the district.
I will elect people who will REFUSE TO BAN BOOKS refuse to deny all students the ability to do sports, or join clubs if they want to. I will make sure all the bigoted laws you guys propose fail. I have nothing to do with this school or lawsuit, you are a desperate bigot who needs to get YOUR OWN LIFE and let others live theirs.
Ah, but you and your cohorts aren't letting people, especially children, live their own lives, are you? You're propagandizing them to do what they don't really want, just because it's fashionable.
So you are not one of those bigots who are also racist and insist if teachers teach about racism in the US your kids will feel bad? I don't believe it. If a teen wants to be called with a certain pronoun how the hell does that hurt you?
YOU CANNOT MAKE ANYONE LGBTQ. You either are or you are not, this is not an option. Most people experiment, not all, but many, and that does not make them gay.
Is it SO HARD to call a person the way they wish to be addressed? Who the hell are you to tell anyone who they are?
Are you suggesting that these teachers are training their students to be LGBTQ? Or are you suggesting forced labor is an option? LOL And forced labor? Are you a Daughter of The Confederacy? That would explain your inability to use word slavery.
You cannot make ppl LGB, that is true. But Trans is not LGB. And LGB doesn’t require ppl to take cross sex hormones and get surgeries. Nor does LGB require novel pronouns that push people to deny biological reality.
I speak facts and logic. It’s helpful to not get into emotional name calling…it doesn’t do anything except make people disregard any points you might really want to make. We all want the same thing..safe healthy learning environment for our kids. Let’s talk about the facts and work on a solution.
Ok. Great. Thank you. Let’s talk about this. First of all these teachers are not licensed, educated, or equipped to be encouraging or inviting any of these kids to transition…and that is what has been going on…do you agree? A child who at this young age is looking to transition should be cared for and counseled by a doctor ( the irreversible affect of adding hormones) a mental health physician ( the emotional side of such a transition at such a young age) and with parents’ full knowledge. None of this criteria exists at BV. For children who are or have transitioned I would hope our school is a safe, healthy learning environment that is welcoming and inclusive. The problem for me ( and I think most parents) is with these two teachers seeking out through snooping on google and evesdropping on kids who have questions or are searching and inviting them into this very pro trans environment. These are young impressionable kids and for the most part they may not have any idea what they are really engaging in. It’s one thing, and a wonderful thing to create an environment of inclusion and kindness but it’s another, and dangerous as well as criminal to promote snd entice these kids into uncharted territory where there is no turning back and no parental or other mental/ medical support system. Please tell me your thoughts and where I am wrong :)
I don't think you know what transition actually means for kids. What, specifically, are the irreversible effects of the hormones you're referring to? And what hormones specifically are you referring to? Because the only hormones that trans kids can take for transitioning are puberty blockers. Puberty blockers are completely reversible, cisgender kids are prescribed puberty blockers when they get puberty too early and can come off it at any time. So what exactly are you referring to?
In March 2021, Sweden's Karolinska Hospital, one of the world's top medical teaching institutes, announced: Puberty blocking "treatments are...fraught with extensive and irreversible adverse consequences such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, infertility, increased cancer risk, and thrombosis. In light of the above, [such treatments] will not be initiated in gender dysphoric patients under the age of 16."
So I would ask these questions. Do you know that they aren't licensed, educated or equipped? Have you seen their list of education certificates and qualifications? Are they inviting kids to transition? Where does it say that? Or what student has made that claim? Or are they creating an environment where kids can speak freely and ask questions?
I agree that doctors and mental health professionals along with families should be the first line of conversation. But what happens if families are unwilling to listen or provide messages of hate that make students feel badly about themselves and even more confused. The suicide attempt rates for transgender teens is close to 50%.
Have you asked your school what their inclusion and safety practices are for LGBT youth? Do they have a gender neutral restrooms where students can go if they need to use a facility? What about locker rooms and changing facilities?
I don't think it's wise to assume that the article's assertion of snooping and stalking kids is some nefarious plot. All schools were on distance learning last year...don't you think it's possible that teachers, in the normal course of their monitoring student academics, would see such searches and conversations without resorting to "spying." I would agree the use of the word "stalking" is highly unfortunate. But presentations are often made for engagement and entertainment value...so language choices are often made for a friendly audience. Taken out of context they seem worse than they were intended.
As a parent of a kids at that school, do you see evidence of enticements? What would those be? Is it possible that the kids are just looking to hang out with other kids who are like them?
Have you attended one of their meetings? Do you know what actually happens there? Have you asked them? Have you asked the teachers who run the program what happens in the room? Or are you basing ALL of your assumptions on this one article which is written with the intention to cause controversy? Do you really think it is possible for two teachers at a public school to persuade students to become transgender and then also provide them the medicines to do that?
I think you are 100% correct to care about kids having welcoming and inclusive spaces. Are you doing anything at your kids school to help with that?
Kaela - they are not licensed. I have asked the school countless times to bring in professionals. I gave them names, I gave them numbers. For perspective - this is a school with only 300 students.
Ok. These are all thoughtful and valid questions and I absolutely do not have answers to all of them. But I appreciate the opportunity to dive a little deeper and think about all of the topics you’ve brought up. Let me get back to you. But in the meantime what I will say is that as far as what have I done to promote inclusion and kindness for my kids and at my kids school is that I have always tried to role model to my kids and the many kids whose classes I have subbed in over the last 20 years…
This article deals with an extracurricular club and says nothing of content teaching and classroom practices. According to the article, she is an award winning teacher.
I'm very sure the woke media will take it up and try to discredit it. But the cat's out of the bag, and the truth will win out just as it did in Virginia.
In California? A few feel-good cliches about "you be you" and the woke parents' brains turn right off.
Having said, that, a couple of parents in our class arrived at our last parents' night full of initiative to "create a gender inclusive middle school" which meant never calling kids "boys" and "girls" anymore. We all just ignored them and kept talking in terms of boys and girls. But eventually, they will win. Californians have no defenses.
As my old union chapter secretary said: "We let 'em say whatever the hell they want to say, and then we take 'em out in the alley and beat the sh!t out of 'em."
His tactic worked. These Woke propagandists come from an upper-middleclass culture which despises all physical labor and is horrified of all physical violence, even so much as you'd see in the average football game. In brief, they're overgrown spoiled brats who've been coddled all their lives and think the rest of the world must continue to coddle them. Confronting them firmly, even with words, is enough to scare them back under their rocks.
There are MANY credible doctors and scientists that reject this notion of gender fluidity but are silenced due to the extreme measures taken by these "activists" to take down any dissenters and to continue to push their false narrative. Chromosomes exist! You may not be able to choose your gender but that doesn't change reality. I fully support any actual trans person who wants to be perceived as the opposite gender or anything in between, but to claim that you are scientifically that gender is NOT factual and a regression of scientific understanding and practices. It's not so just cause you want it to be. I want to be a dolphin but that doesn't change the fact that I'm human no matter how many surgeries I get.
This level of espionage perpetrated against students by teachers is horrifying. Kids with strong family ties are mostly insulated...they essentially admit they are targeting the low-hanging fruit, the weak and confused.
Groomers always target the weak. Sadly, once a girl hits the teen years & high school there are all sorts of factors that can make her vulnerable - even when family ties are strong. Mine encountered a perfect storm including an odd and highly controlling boyfriend who thought she was the "best boyfriend" he'd ever had. Teachers think they are helping when they celebrate and lie to families. They do not respect the wishes of parents regarding minors.
yes girls are particularly vulnerable in our society right now. Very trying times. Keep loving her and stay strong. I wish there was something i could do to help out these girls.
I am sorry to hear about that. It's all too common. Mine is physically well so far. Gender Ideology works as a cult that is publicly endorsed everywhere. A teenage girls' loving parents are left as the only ones who "have a problem with it".
Yes. It's tragic. Have you ever listened to A Wider Lens with Sasha Ayad and Stella O'Malley on youtube. They are two family therapists who take a very critical eye to the transgender madness.
Have you noticed that Angelina Jolie's teenage daughter Shiloh no longer dresses like a boy but has now embraced her femininity. I hope your dear daughter will do the same.
I once saw a transwoman go into an online tirade because someone commented on Shiloh's androgynous period, noting that the majority of kids who express some gender dysphoria will grow up to be cisgay or even straight. Turns out that some trans activists are really defensive about this (accurate) statement.
Thank goodness that Shiloh was never put on puberty blockers or cross sex hormones. Now she can grow up to be a healthy young woman. I hope her desistence will inspire other young girls to accept themselves as they are.
This is the 2nd time I've heard of people going after the special needs kids. (The first was in the Portland, Ore. school system). It's bad enough going after neuro-typical kids; it's a crime going after the autistic ones who have no discernment whatsoever. My daughter is on the spectrum; I should know.
Yes, girls on the autism spectrum are very much at risk of falling into this. But, they don't have to be on the spectrum. My daughter is not autistic but she is very naive and about as socially clueless as she is intellectually gifted. It doesn't help that the whole world appears to endorse the religion of Gender Identity and promote the recitation of "ones pronouns". You do not have to be any sort of "checked out" parent either. You are not there with them every hour of high school and teachers are empowered beyond parents. It has completely taken over education to the point that even teachers and kids who don't like it feel they must outwardly go along with it. My daughter doesn't have a lot of discernment either. They are young. The young are vulnerable.
I have this concern my daughter in on the spectrum. Her whole life she doesn't really understand the social world the same. When she was 9 she thought Santa could be her boyfriend....she doesn't understand relations. It is very scary...I would like her to wait until she is an adult to make these choices and when she does I will love her no matter her choice.
Hey PDX - would you mind emailing me about this? I am trying to put together a list of people this has happened to and I'd love to talk further. Kinnerethbooks@gmail.com.
To young students, teachers are, by definition, the keepers of knowledge. The students hear the consensus of teachers daily, year after year. Then, TV, Hollywood, pop music, sports, politicians, and retailers who want to attract customers all reinforce the lies. How could the kids not come to accept the systematic lies as "truth." Parents, rarely have enough vision behind the scenes to see what is going on and they by the time they realize it, it is so difficult to overcome that they just ignore it and hope that as their kids mature, they'll come to their senses or they'll decide it's just a matter of cultural variation - go along to get along.
There can be no doubt that many people embrace primitive belief systems. Believing - especially in mystical nonsense - inheres in sapiens. That cannot be overcome - you can only try to protect yourself against it.
My dear, I WAS Bisexual as a teen, and had no problem concealing it from my parents and teachers and doctors and preachers. As an adult I was free to explore my sexuality so long as I was discreet about it. The truth is, nobody cares what you do in private. It's only when you propagandize children and demand in public that everybody adhere to *your* standards that people start to complain.
Dear, you were not bisexual as a teen, you had sex with women and men. If you were bisexual you would still be sexually attracted to both sexes, are you? And why on earth would you need to be secret about your life as an adult? I am not talking about having sex in public, so do not pull that nonsense. The only standard I am advocating is to allow people to be who they are and not be banned from bathrooms and sports. You are about DISCRIMINATION plain and simple, own it dear
I didn't have sex as a teen, but waited until I was an adult. Yes, I'm still bisexual, though I've settled down with a male partner. Secret? I'm not "secret"; I just don't shove my sexuality in everybody's face, as certain "activists" noisily propose. Nobody's being "banned from bathrooms", just insisting that people use the bathrooms that fit their plumbing, not their daydreams. Nobody's being banned from sports either, just required to join the division that fits their chromosomes and first 15 years or so of conditioning. If you really were a proud lesbian, as you claim, then you would know about the danger that the transition fashion poses to gay men and women, and you wouldn't be so defensive of ooey-gooey-cooey-mooey Woke teachers trying to "sympathize" confused kids into changing gender.
Damn that “low hanging-fruit, the weak and confused!” Oh wait Caroline, you’re referencing CHILDREN! There’s not a single quote in this article that indicates that these educators targeted children that meet any specific criteria other than children who express interest or curiosity regarding gender and sexuality. The ignorance of your comment that children with strong family ties are insulated, while children who lack strong family ties are low hanging fruit, weak and confused is preposterous!
I could not agree more. I think that Caroline means well but children are naturally curious and easy to exploit by nature of being - children. So many girls are weak and confused in the teen years. Didn't we know that already? I always felt our family was strong and people had long commented on the connection I had with my children - and maybe that will save us in the end - but any kiddo can be groomed and teachers have no right to go beyond the 3 Rs with minors. It is very hard when teachers work behind the backs of parents and a girl's folks appear to be the only "unreasonable" ones who are not onboard with "Gender". And, we PAY teachers while they exploit the children in the name of do-gooding. It has to stop.
All that said, I've read that kids in foster care have been especially subject to gender experimentation (including medical).
Oh my goodness. I am truly speechless. The directives from the CTA conference could have come straight from a horror movie.
The other night I watched the Invasion of the Body Snatchers (free on amazon prime). The original version from 1956 in which alien sea pods from outer space secretly conspire to take over the minds and bodies of every resident in a small California town. The only purpose of these cult like pod people is to further the overnight "transition" of every human being into drones who feel no emotions, and most tellingly, derive no sexual pleasure. They tell their hapless victims that this transition will make them happier and solve all their problems.
The pod people carry out their nefarious plot in absolute secrecy. One person in town, Dr. Miles Bennell. realizes what's going on. As the full extent of the horror reveals itself, Dr. Bennell fights a brave and desperate battle to warn the rest of the world about the danger humanity faces before it's too late. The movie ends on a hopeful note as state and national government officials are contacted by telephone.
The parallels between the alien sea pods and the CTA Conference are striking and terrifying. The cult-like devotion and obedience; the goal of "transition;" the destruction of sexual pleasure; the complicity of local officials; the use of family and coworker pod people to spread the invasion within families, schools, and businesses; the secrecy; the conspiracy; the propaganda, the seemingly overnight transition of normal society into something deranged; the California setting; and most importantly, the emergence of smart, brave people who risk everything to warn others of the danger that lies ahead.
Abigail, you are one of those smart, brave people working to save children from the transgender cult that's invaded and taken over the schools. I hope this important story spreads far and wide. Parents and concerned citizens need to know about the cancer that' metastsized overnight in our schools while we slept.
Let the outrage build. Let parents and concerned citizens across the country send the message that we will not tolerate the evil machinations of the aggressive transgender activists, who, as Jennifer Bilek warns us, are well funded by a dark network of autogynephile billionaires.
I also watched this great simple movie again. A great line in it is Brunel saying”… you don’t realize how precious your humanity is until something tries to take it away”
Also see Mars Invades - while the vicious aliens pursue people in the streets intent on zapping them, they broadcast, "Don't run away - we mean you no harm!" It's the same with Liberal-socialist-fascists -- they tell you they're not antiAmerican, they're not antiCapitalist, they're not destructive psychopaths, all the while acting against Americanist ideals, capitalism, and sanity.
Being a resident of America, one (unfortunately) can indeed make that choice. But, one cannot be AmericanIST and also choose marxism. Try thinking logically.
I have no interest in being AmericanIST (meaning nationalist, as in "National Socialist"). Quit confusing issues. It just creates division & distraction. You don't have to be a Nationalist, a capitalist, or even a conservative to oppose trans demands activism & gender identity ideology propaganda being taught in our schools.
Also, the trans / gender identity ideology is about as anti-Marxist as they can get. They CLAIM to be Marxist, but actual MARXISM, (as opposed to Leninism, Stalinism, or, what we see from the Leftists now, Maoism & Mao's "Cultural Revolution" with its "struggle sessions"), deals with the MATERIAL WORLD. It is a very embodied social & economic theory that has to do with physical conditions, not some disembodied "gender identity" that only exists inside people's heads. The Democratic Party went astray when it adopted identity politics instead of sticking with their economic policies that helped working people. So those working people, abandoned by the Dems, turned to Trump & the GOP.
In reality, almost no one in the U.S. ACTUALLY cares about the working poor or the working class in the U.S. (most people who think they are Middle Class are actually working class). The idea that the Corporatists Dems, who in economic policy are Center to Center-RIGHT are Socialists is just total Right-wing propaganda because socialism is the boogeyman to fearful conservatives who think of Stalin & the horrors of Communists regimes around the world & calling your opponent scary names gets votes from tired, uninformed, propagandized people who don't have the time or intelligence, or who are not concerned enough to actually learn about candidates & policies to vote for your candidate.
The National Dem Party is just Republican-light. If they weren't, then Bernie Sanders would have been their candidate, not people like Hillary or Biden, and we would be more like the Scandinavian countries, whose people are universally prosperous, who have a Socialist society providing healthcare, education, etc. free to all.
Interestingly, the country who has taken the lead in backtracking on supposedly "progressive" trans demands legislation & put a halt to the transitioning of children is SWEDEN, not the CONSERVATIVE, CAPITALIST United States! So do NOT suggest that only people on the FAR RIGHT, where you are, oppose the indoctrination & transitioning of children.
In fact, one of the reasons why there are SO many voices in the UK fighting trans demands activism & gender identity ideology is BECAUSE the UK is so class conscious & many of the people are Marxists. It's a viable political philosophy there. It's not despised as it is here. Debbie Hayton is a lifelong labor activist & member of the Labor Party who is trans who is hated by the trance activist "community" because he speaks out against the trans demands activists' on the rights & safety of women & girls. He also defends JK Rowling, which makes him a target b/c of the blind hysteria & hatred of Rowling over things she never even said.
So quit wasting people's time with Far-Right propaganda & tribalism. The Left-wing politicians & media have a field day lumping those of us on the LEFT who oppose identity politics in with the Nationalists like you, who "identify" as
the Neo-Nazis & fascists on the Far Right, any time we suggest anything even slightly critical of the trans demands activists or ideology. This kind of tribalism & polarized thinking only helps keep this gender identity ideology cult in power.
Of course there is, you silly twit. We can expose you for all the world to see, which we're doing now. I must say, your hysterical reactions are a big help there.
You are a Trumper who gets off pissing off, harming or otherwise "owning the libs". Only seriously mentally ill people get off harming or hurting others. Get help
"For decades, gay Americans lived under the shadow of a vicious calumny that—if granted full inclusion in society—they would ‘recruit’ children. This was, and remains, a lie"
I think Abigail is being too charitable here. That's EXACTLY what these teachers are doing. They are recruiting kids to a lifestyle of "choosing a sexual identity" at the age of 12. There's a word for that: "grooming". It's encouraging that most kids aren't interested and essentially have to be tricked to sticking around using marketing gimmicks. Pedophiles have always used these tricks though: "here, would you like some candy, little boy? What we do together stays between us." Sound familiar? Teacher: "we're going to talk about sexual stuff here, and what happens in this room needs to stay here." That's grooming.
Brian, where does it mention gays and lesbians doing this? It doesn't. This is not coming from the LGB community. It's coming from the TQIA radicals. Notice I didn't say community, because its not a community. It's a cult.
Of course, social media tries to suppress gay critiques of trans activists. There was - briefly - a subreddit called "Lose The T", in which gay posters expressed resentment toward various aspects of trans ideology and behavior. Reddit shut it down, just as they shut down r/GenderCritical for pointing out the way that trans ideology works to the detriment of women.
Oh, and forgot, they also shut down a subreddit by and for de-transitioners. Because, apparently, people considering transition don't have the right to know that some people who have medically transitioned regret it.
Indeed, the L/G/B crowd are beginning to find out that "transitioning" is being used as a "cure" for being Gay -- and never mind the permanent health problems that causes, or that there's no changing back.
Wrong, and you're the liar. These perverts are wasting no time recruiting children into their warped perverted world. However, there is an easy solution to this problem that will stop it in its tracks. It's called a "bullet".
Oh, there's a much simpler method; just tease the Woke hysterics until they descend on your house in a mob -- then call in the SWAT team to mow them down. Indeed, there are benefits to calling the cops.
I think the police are unlikely to "mow them down". The police in the U.S. act tough, with all their riot gear, etc., but many of them don't act quickly when there is a real threat. And people would howl if a SWAT team ever "mowed down" a whole group of people. Look at how Portland had 100 nights of rioting from antifa & the night shift of "BLM". What makes you think they are going to respond differently? [Edited to add the question mark at the end!]
I mean it doesn't mean anything what sex or orientation they are talking about...a teacher shouldn't be talking to a very young teen about Sex...period. Hello...seems obvious.
That's a strawman argument. The issue is that a child can be groomed into thinking or believing things that are falsehoods about their own sexual identity, in the same way that a child can be groomed into believing that having sex with an adult is an acceptable act and an acceptable secret between the child and the adult who is molesting them. From there, in either case, permanent damage may ensue. We've already seen plenty of stories about parents and doctors "allowing their child to make a choice" about their sexual identity and then going one step further beyond that absurdity and physically modifying that child with drugs and hormone therapies, and in some cases, surgery. It's sick. It's wrong. It's gone way too far. It absolutely must be stopped.
You do not even understand the words you are typing! You cannot MAKE A KID TRANS OR GAY. And frankly, with so many haters like you, who the hell wold want to be gay or trans? And kids do not get surgery in this nation. Bottom line, if you do not like what your school teaches and values, home school and leave the other kids alone. Are you also one of those Qanon folks who think the Democrats are all pedophiles?
No, dear, but you can trick a child into thinking s/he *is* Gay or trans when s/he really isn't. And BTW, "QAnon" is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the FBI, used for False Flag actions. Clearly you've been taken in by the propaganda.
As for the lie that puberty blockers are no big deal:
"And if taken in the early phase of puberty, blockers and hormones lead to fertility loss. Patients and their families should be counseled about these risks, the standards say, and if preserving fertility is a priority, drugs should be delayed until a more advanced stage of puberty."
What the article doesn't say is that if a kid goes on puberty blockers and then on cross sex hormones, without putting the process on the much ballyhooed "pause", there is no going back. Infertility will be permanent as will the changes induced by the testosterone (lower voice, facial hair for young women) and estrogen (breasts, softer voice and features). Getting off these hormones will NOT reverse these changes.
TransActive transition-promoters (Portland) are overjoyed that there is now no longer a LOWER age limit for “gender confirmation surgery” WITH parental consent. The limit remains age fifteen WITHOUT parental consent.
LIAR, in the USA you must be 18, and can only get the surgery if you have appropriate DX and have had at least 1 year of therapy. Why do you guys LIE ALL THE TIME? Why do you give a shit what others do? MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS
"At least 1 year of therapy"? WHAT are you smoking?!?
NO ONE is getting 1 year of therapy as a requirement for transitioning these days. Huge numbers of kids are getting puberty blockers and cross sex hormones after 1 or 2 visits to a gender clinic.
There are multiple apps now that you can download and get exogenous hormones sent to your house, after one zoom appointment, based on informed consent. If you wanna get your boobs lopped off, you can pay these apps $150 for a letter to give your surgeon, and your insurance has to cover the surgery,
It’s a common misconception that hormones and surgery are rare prescriptions for kids with gender dysphoria. Here’s a link to Gender Mapper, which maps out the hundreds of clinics across the United States where these hormones and surgery referrals are freely available to kids. Puberty blockers are started as young as 8 years old. 14 year olds are getting elective double mastectomies. https://www.facebook.com/GenderMapper/
From the TransActive Facebook page: "There is NO AGE LIMIT for transgender related care (including surgeries) WITH parental consent under the Oregon Health Plan."
She is saying she doesn't have any reason to believe these teachers are gay. Yes these teachers are grooming the kids. Most gay people would have nothing to do with this!
The problem is that the left's much vaunted " intersectionality and diversity" are unsustainable in a party that views the world as a small pie, with every victim group vying for top victim status and the biggest slice of the government pie. Just look at the living hell they created, an inferno bereft of grace, forgiveness or empathy, meant to contaminate all institutions but first consuming all of them.
The tyrannical mindset of transgender activists and their supporters who insist that any deviation from their bankrupt ideology constitutes "bigotry" is exactly that: Tyranny.
It's very simple: If these activists, armed with the threat of government coercion and/or support, can get you to deny chromosomal and biological reality, they can get you to DENY anything.
And if they can get you to believe that reality itself can be self-declared--I say I'm a woman, therefore I am--they can get you to BELIEVE anything.
There is no surer path to totalitarianism than that--which is why progressives are trying to ram this agenda down America's throat. Don't stand for it.
You don't have to pretend that sexual dysphoria is a "human rights" issue and you sure as heck don't have to abide the idea that believing in biological reality is bigotry.
Above all, don't remain silent to avoid confrontation. A constitutional republic is a terrible thing to give away without a fight.
Yes. Tyranny it is. And I looked up the word tyranny just to make sure. According to Merriam Webster tyranny means cruel and unfair treatment by people with power over others. Dictionary.com defines tyranny as the arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power; despotic abuse of authority. Now that I know exactly what tyranny means, I can't thing of a better word to describe the logic defying goals and strongarm tactics of the transgender zealots than pure and absolute tyranny.
Private school will necessarily not save our kids. My kids are in a private school in a major city and the school has all but given up on teaching and is in full indoctrination mode. 3rd grade teacher asked for kids pronouns on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. The first day of school in over a year thanks to Covid. I only found out about this when my 8 year old mentioned it months later. I spoke to teacher and she saw nothing wrong with that. Wait, it gets better!!! One kid picked “they/them,” and this is my kid’s BFF. I know that’s not the case. Did the teacher follow up with parents? No. Did she even use the kid’s “chosen” pronouns? No! So what was the point in this other than the teacher making herself feel better??!! Ive been in touch with school admin and they are in lockstep. Abigail, I’d love to talk to you more. There may be more protection in public schools in some sense because they do have public boards. Private schools do whatever the hell they want.
Yes that is part of the story here. The most exclusive private schools are getting more woke than anyone else. The only remaining answer my friends and I seem to have are some Catholic schools (though I am no Catholic to say the least, but appreciate them more now) and flexible homeschooling pods. I think the latter will eventually be the default for sane parents.
Our private high school changed the rules to say they would lie to parents after we complained about it. After a time it was harder to find that manual.
My alleged catholic school refused to use my daughter’s female name and pronouns. There is no place to educate your child. Colleges have adopted this same nonsense.
I am really sorry to hear even a military school changed. I went to all-girls Catholic boarding school. Last I heard, the nuns hadn't been bamboozled into allowing trans-identified males to attend, at least not yet.
We simply have to take back the public school system. This will mean attending school board meetings, then running for school board offices, as well as petitioning local politicians.
Home education or a very small private school is the only solution. In CA, home education is quite easy legally (file a form with the state and you're in business.) It's hard to swing financially -- I know a few single moms in our coop and have no idea how they do it -- but it's absolutely worth it. the kind of relationship you have with your kid (even teens) makes it worth the effort.
No, dear: pushing kids to "transition" is harming our kids. Don't you realize that transition is castration? Once your testes or ovaries are removed, you can't breed -- and you can't grow them back.
I teach in Fairfax County, Virginia. Training materials for LBGTQ++ specifically direct teachers to mislead parents. If a student wants to be called by a certain name, we're required to call them by that name. However, when talking with parents, the materials say, make sure to use the student's legal name. The training materials specifically say to mislead the parents.
This is the way of it almost everywhere - public and private. I envy the rural mother who has not encountered this - or has not yet (but am also glad for her). "Using Pronouns" has to stop. I think parents in Fairfax County, VA are just more aware. And, maybe there are more teachers like you willing to blow the whistle. Thank you.
It cannot be lawful to have and to follow such training materials. We are talking about grooming/gas lighting minors behind their parents backs. Also, Gender Ideology is not science.
A kid can grow up to be gay or straight without a name and pronoun change. I think that the issue of being LGB get's conflated with the promotion of social/mental illness and fetish.
My parents would have kicked me out of the house after they beat the hell out of me if they knew I was gay as a teen. FUCK YOU for wanting kids today to go through the same pain as back then. If there were not so many hateful bigots who would harem their own kids if they found out they were gay, this would not be a problem
It drums up a lot of business for the trans healthcare industrial complex. Think of how much money is raked in for puberty blockers, cross sex hormones, double mastectomies, phalloplasties, cosmetic surgeries, vaginoplasties, surgeons fees, hospital fees, counseling fees The doctors, hospitals, drug manufacturers, and counselors are all making a killing.
In a few years many thousands of detransitioners will file a class action against the individuals and corporations who destroyed the health, fertility and appearance of innocent and confused children.
It is a con game. And no one is protecting the naive and desperate victims many of whom are emotionally troubled and barely beyond adolescence.
Do you know how these "surgeons" construct a "vagina" for a biological man. It's a procedure that would make Dr. Frankenstein proud. First they amputate the penis and scrotum. The skin of the balls becomes the inner and outer labia. Then they turn the penis inside out and insert it into the perianum to form the vagina. If the penis isn't long enough because the victim (like Jazz Jennings) took puberty blockers and never went through a real puberty, they will expand the "vagina" using tissue from the colon, yes, the colon. Unfortunately, colon tissue will always smell like, you know, colon tissue. But sometimes these "surgeons" have no choice. They must use the colon. But they insist it's a vagina.
The procedure for giving a biological woman a "penis" is just as disturbing and even more disfiguring since the surgeon has to remove a section of forearm skin and arm tissue to form the penile shaft. And the forearm will always be scarred and deformed looking, as if the forearm had been seriously burned in a raging fire. Serious complications for both types of genital surgeries is the norm. And yet they're promoted as only a little more serious than getting a tattoo.
You missed the part where the new “vagina” must have a stretcher (dildo) inserted a few times every day to keto it from closing up since it’s really just an open wound.
Yes. I don't know when the ACLU lost the script but they sure did.
There is a Federal case that has been filed againt the Leon County School Board in FL by the Littlejohn family with the help of the Child & Parental Rights Campaign. See Genspect.org
Take a look at Jennifer Bilek's 11th Hour Blog. The autogynephile billionaire's who fund the aggressive transgender activists though a dark network of charitable foundations see transgenderism as an easy on ramp to transhumanism. Billionaire "Martine" (nee Martin) Rothblatt founded a religion called Terasem that promotes both transgenderism and transhumanism. So if you'd like to sprout gills or have a neck as long as a giraffe, "she's" your man. And yes, it is a religion.
Remember when in 2019 the Democratic candidates for president held a televised town hall to virtue-signal their fealty to trans ideology? And guess which party receives donations from the Human Rights Campaign (the HRC)?
The DEMS were already bought and paid for long before that event, unfortunately. Just look at Obama's relationship with the billionaire Pritzker family from Chicago.
For the last 2 decades I have voted DEM more often than not, but I will NOT vote for any DEM who has voted or will vote to pass The Equality Act. If that abomination ever becomes law, any rights afforded to biological women will legally cease to exist.
Just listen to this wake-up call from Kara Dansky, the DEM feminist who now heads the US chapter of The Women's Human Rights Campaign:
100%! After his re-election, Obama and his administration not only prioritized the "feelings" of men who identify as women OVER the rights of biological women, they hid these actions from the public, an epic betrayal of the tens of millions of women voters who tirelessly supported him through two campaigns.
CBS even documented this deceit in 2014. (The CAPS are mine.)
WITHOUT FANFARE, OBAMA ADVANCED TRANSGENDER RIGHTS
"Unlike Obama's support for same-sex marriage and lifting the "don't ask, don't tell" ban on openly gay troops, the WHITE HOUSE'S WORK TO PROMOTE TRANSGENDER RIGHTS HAS HAPPENED mostly OUT OF THE SPOTLIGHT."
"In other instances, transgender rights groups and the administration have AGREED ON A LOW-KEY APPROACH, both TO SKIRT RESISTANCE and to send the message that changes are not a big deal, said Barbra Siperstein, who in 2009 became the first transgender person elected to the Democratic National Committee.
"It's QUIET BY DESIGN, because the louder you are in Washington, the more the drama," said Siperstein, who helped organize the first meeting between White House aides and transgender rights advocates without the participation of gay rights leaders."
I’m a Democrat. I voted for Biden. I would never vote Republican because the issues I care about are opposed by the Republicans. I believe in human rights protections for all people, in employment, in housing, etc. I also believe in human rights protections for women, i.e., biological females. It is not possible to change ones sex. Men can never be women regardless of how they “identify.” The presence of males in women’s sports and prisons destroys the level playing field and endangers the safety of the most disenfranchised women in the country, the poor women of all races who inhabit America’s jails and prisons. If trans-identified males stayed in their lane and respected the rights of women, instead of expecting women to throw themselves under the bus in the name of “fairness,” it would be a very easy matter to respect their human rights in total.
The mutilation of children’s bodies through hormonal and surgical intervention without even a whit of therapy is malpractice. Nobody should be transitioning medically before the age of 18 and without prior insight therapy to insure that transition is the correct way to go. Young people, who don’t know themselves, are encouraged to transition, but then they detransition and are filled with regret over the loss of sexual function and fertility, and immutable changes to their appearance. The numbers in this group are exploding. This is a tragic outcome. Promoting transgenderism in the schools, as an ideology and a panacea for any emotional problem a teenager might be feeling, rather than a medical condition that may help some people, is wrong and it needs to stop.
It’s convenient to label my views as transphobic. My response is that transgender policy and ideology as currently conceived are misogynistic, homophobic, narcissistic and dangerous to the health and welfare of women and children. It doesn’t have to be that way. Call me any name you like. I’ve said all I have to say. Have a nice day.
Unhappy confused angry people targeting happy families. Their ideology has led them to misery and they cannot accept that it was wrong, so they aim to tear everyone else down.
In the 1980s, gay magazines laid our their plans to turn the children gay via the school system. It's been public knowledge for decades, but people just don't want to hear the truth and their children and grandchildren will pay the eternal price.
As a lesbian who came out in 1971, I have absolutely no knowledge of any such campaigns. If it’s been public knowledge for decades, somehow I missed that memo, and trust me, I am not hiding under a rock. If that sort of nonsense was going on, it was doomed to fail in any case. Unlike trans indoctrination, which is founded on beliefs and ideology, being gay or lesbian requires that a person have actual, organically generated feelings of love and desire for a person of the same sex. Anybody who’s ever tried to make themselves have feelings for someone they’re not attracted to knows how futile such an exercise is.
Now, I do recall that there was at one time an odious group called NAMBLA (Man Boy Love Association) which put forth the sickening notion that grown men and minor boys could engage in legitimate romantic and sexual relationships. This was nothing but a cover for pedophilia, and it was rightfully shut down. To equate this with garden-variety gays and lesbians would do a disservice to the millions of us who have spent our lives being good citizens, minding our own business and trying to leave the world a little better than we found it.
I am and have always been completely straight. But some of the bravest women standing up to defend biological women and girls from the transgender crazies are gay women. Brave and honorable women like Bari Weiss, Prof. Kathleen Stock and TT Exulansic. The transgender enemy is strong, and we who oppose them must work together to defeat the woke madness.
Lesbians are the most vocal opponents of the trans craze because they have the most to lose. If butch girls are really boys, that leaves lesbians in a lurch. They are our natural allies in this, if we can find a way to communicate with them. Bari Weiss is a great bridge in this regard.
Yes. Lesbians are our natural allies and they do have the most to lose. They were also the canaries in the coal mine, the people who first became aware of the threat to themselves and the wider world posed by "Big Trans."
Don't leave out journalist Katie Herzog. She writes for Weiss on Substack and co-hosts an excellent podcast called BLOCKED AND REPORTED! She is fearless and smart with a rapier like wit.
When her wife recently told her she'd just read that there are only 15 lesbian bars left in America, Herzog replied, "Oh, good, one for each of us."
"Katie Herzog was a largely unknown freelance journalist living in Seattle. Then she published an article in The Stranger about trans people who halt or reverse transitions. Two days later she started getting hate mail.
“It is, by far, the most-read thing I’ve ever written,” Ms. Herzog said. It also made her “wildly reviled.” Seattle residents burned stacks of The Stranger and posted stickers calling Ms. Herzog a transphobe."
Thank goodness for the brave women, like Katie Herzog, who are alerting the rest of us to the danger.
I'd like to add a few more names to the list of brave women (both gay and straight). Kara Dansky, whose brand new book, The Abolition of Sex: How the "Transgender" Agenda Harms Women and Girls, is an absolute must read for everyone whose concerned about the shocking negative effects of the Big Trans cult in the US.
I started the ebook last night and will finish it this morning. It's short, succinct, highly informative, and powerfully written, like a bombshell going off. At $9.95 for the ebook and $15.99 for the paperback, it would make a terrific little stocking stuffer gift for everyone you care about.
Other names include: Karen Davis and her You've Got to Be Kidding podcast, Posey Parker (podcast), Helen Joyce (her recent book icalled Trans is another must read), Jennifer Bilek (11th Hour Blog), and I'm sure, there are others who are fighting the good fight.
Unfortunately for gays and lesbians the woke mob took over. What used to be LGB, became LGBT, became LGBTQ, became LGBTQIA, ad infinitum. The latest additions to this alphabet soup are the most vicious bigoted radical feminists. If I don't want to date a guy who says he's a woman I become a enemy of the cause. What's the cause you ask? To obliterate the norms of sex and biology. If as they say gender is fluid then why am I not attracted to men who say they're women and vice versa men not attracted to women who say they're men. Same thing is happening with pedophilia, you have these radical groups NAMBLA is just one of them trying to mainstream pedophilia. A assistant professor at Old Dominion released a book on how to normalize pedophilia and pedophiles, by changing the definition. The term is MAP. Minor Attracted Person.
I understand trans ideology very, very well. I’m 69 and have been dealing with this garbage since the mid 70s when men in dresses decided they had a right to join our lesbian social clubs. I was in the 1% who smelled a rat and resisted, but I was overruled. Lesbians were very oppressed back then (as we are, again, now, due to trans hatred of women) and my friends felt sorry for the dudes in drag claiming to be us. How many of them could there be? One or two? What’s the big deal?
Fast forward 50 years and you can hardly find a lesbian now, especially the butch variety, which constituted fifty percent of our population. Now, so-called gender nonconforming girls, the less feminine ones, the ones who would otherwise grow up to be gay, have been brainwashed to believe the world is a horrible patriarchy and men will rape and kill them if they walk down the street with their shameful breasts sticking out. Better to cut them off right now and change their name to Jason.
I know about the male predators calling themselves women, who hang on to their male genitalia, which they are longing to use on anyone with an actual vagina. Their targets are pre-teen and teenage “trans men,” who’ve been guilt-tripped and groomed to provide sex to these guys or be labeled misogynistic. I read their stories of coercion and rape on the Reddit detrans site. They are traumatized to the core. That’s just one part of the story, because of course boys are targets as well.
Believe me, you and I are on the same side. I wasn’t aware that NAMBLA still had a breath of life in it, so I stand corrected. My main concern here is that I’m seeing the word “gay” being correlated with pedophilia, and I’m sorry, that’s wrong. There are too many of us — the overwhelming majority of us — living good lives, and some of us have been victims of pedophilia ourselves. Pedophilia doesn’t produce a sexual orientation, it destroys a child’s soul.
Pedophiles come in all flavors. Jeffrey Epstein et al and the Catholic Church come to mind. Jeffrey, Bill and Bill liked the young ladies. And those priests raped a lot of little girls, you know. Please stop equating being gay with pedophilia. It’s inaccurate and it makes things harder for all of us. Thank you.
Yes. I'm a very conventional straight woman who never thought I'd spend much time thinking about things like transexuality. But, I have a lovely feminine daughter who was sucked into this cult (as yet not physically harmed). I know another girl in our neighborhood who was anorexic and now takes "T" and has a new boy name. I think in an earlier time she'd have just been a lesbian instead of viewing herself as a straight boy :-0 I think the main bad actors in this play are actually entirely straight autogynephile men (more aggressive than other men), plus the Woke mob, people with blinders on their eyes, Big Pharma, Big Business (like those autogynephile billionaires), and the progressives who have found this very useful for gaining power. If these guys would just wear a dress and call it a day... That thing where our White House declared Richard/Rachael Levine to be the first Female (not simply "woman" which is crazy enough) 4 star admiral was especially Orwellian. Our country "jumped the shark" there.
Yes, LovingMother, our country has jumped the shark. I shudder to think what my parents and grandparents, who've all been dead for decades, would think of a country that "celebrates" bearded young girls who amputate their breasts and allows violent male felons with intact penises to self declare themselves women and gain entry to women's prisons where they can rape and impregnate with impunity. They would think we've all gone stark raving mad.
The "Rachel" Levine is a "female" incident is a new low for this country and, as you pointed out, especially Orwellian. What frightens me is this century is still young. What other horrors do the deranged billionaire Autogynephiles of Big Trans have up their sleeve?
Nowhere did I mention that I thought gay men were pedophiles. I was agreeing with you. What I was saying was, the LGB cause was taken over by a bunch of radicals who have no qualms about normalizing pedophilia. There is no LGB as a organization today, it's become the TQIA intersectional cult. Where hate breeds hate, and intolerance is accepted as virtue. They want us too accept- No they demand we accept, and celebrate their degeneracy. Not me. Not ever. The inmates are running the asylum. As my granny said when I was a child. Not one ounce of my worth is dependent upon what others think of me.
That "at one time an odious group" is still very much with us, there is no shortage of examples of indoctrination of children. You can deny it, but that doesn't make it not so.
Hey, Beeswax, What do you think of this co-opting of the term "come out" as applied to the Gender fantasy? It seems like teens are made to feel special and to me that smells of grooming. Back in the 1970s when someone revealed they were same-sex attracted it may have been a different thing? It feels like it's taken on a sacredness in this new context.
It's like you get to wear the sparkly birthday crown when you're in kindergarten and everyone sings Happy Birthday for you. You make a wish, blow out the candles, and then you get to eat your chocolate cup cake. Only in Trans-world, the birthday boy or girl gets to poison themselves with puberty blockers and cross sex hormones and mutilate their genitals.
I know. I hear you. Equally baffling is the unquestioning acceptance of trans-identified males in women's sports and prisons by my cohorts, the lesbian-feminists of the 1970s, who have devoted literally decades to lesbian rights, women's reproductive rights and the like.
In terms of the transing of children, they refuse to acknowledge that it's happening or to see it as a problem in any way. They don't seem to notice that the lesbian community has disappeared. They're so deep in the woke sinkhole they might as well be brain dead. I don't bother with them anymore.
It is a religion. Most people who do not even give it serious thought go along with it because they feel they are being good. They are among the Elect. For those caught in the web and promoting it I think there is an element of Stockhom Syndrome. Then, there are a great many who profit from Trans in medicine, pharma, politics.... There's a crazy amount of billionaire autoggynephile $$$. I am ashamed of our government.
These "teachers" are taking perfectly innocent children and, instead of spending the day making sure their students would graduate one day being able to read at grade level, do math, and appreciate the unique country they live in, they decided destroying their childhoods was a better use of their limited time with them.
All I know is, if what teachers are doing with children must be hidden from their parents, they need to stop and rethink it. This is so disgusting I can't even express it. The ODU "professor" who recently posted a justification for calling pedophiles "MAPs"--Minor Attracted Persons--and trying to make that crew out to be just another "persecuted minority" is what you get when this kind of "education" is inflicted on kids. God help this nation.
They're proving several points for us. 1st, they are, indeed, coming after children. 2nd, the homo crowd is also the pedo crowd is the homo crowd; ad nauseum, ad infinitum. 3rd, they're proving that they are NOT “born that way” but rather, recruited/indoctrinated/inculcated at an early age by a homo. 4th, if they don't recruit, they become extinct (see point 3). 5th, they gave NO BUSINESS being around children, anywhere, ever.
As a lesbian who recognizes misogyny and lesbophobia when I see them, I am disgusted by straight people in health care who presume to know what is happening to confused girls when they make the choice to try to circumvent womanhood by pretending to be men and hoping everyone else will be fooled or at least go along with it. Unfortunately, that pretension is usually accompanied by testosterone, of which the effects are irreversible. This means that should the girl/woman desist from transition (which is more common than is allowed because they are silenced by trans activists), she will forever have a beard, chest hair, increased body hair elsewhere, and may even be bald for the rest of her life.
It is no wonder a girl, especially one who is discovering she is a lesbian, would want to exit being female. The ubiquity of porn and the expectations that come with being female in that context, the fact that lesbians are at the bottom of the LGBTQWTF totem pole and are admonished for being "transphobic" if they do not include intact, male-bodied transwomen in their dating pool, and the fact that misogyny is at a generational high are all contributing factors that no one talks about. Rapid-onset gender dysphoria (ROGD), a syndrome where a teenager or adolescent decides they are transgender after consuming too much social media that sets unreal expectations for the ease of which a person can "change gender," is another problem that is not addressed as often as it should be.
Midway, I am also disappointed in you as a physician because you of all people should know that a person can consume as many hormones as they want and have all the surgery they can handle, but they will never be the opposite sex. Nothing will change their chromosomes or socialization. In addition, the surgeries to "affirm gender" are barbaric. Most people aren't aware that those surgeries are fraught with complications, usually requiring a second or even third or fourth surgery. Also, only about half of women who undergo that surgery are able to achieve orgasm afterward. Sadly, most consider the surgery a success if they can urinate standing up.
If anyone is interested, this paper by the NIH is very informative.
Thank you, kittyD, for this eye opening paper from 2013. I skimmed the article but studied the stomach turning photos which show the grisly procedure and its strange results even when everything goes right. For those of you who don't choose to read the article, the quotation below is an excellent summary.
"Total phalloplasty is one of the most complex reconstructions that plastic surgeons are called upon to perform.... Add to this the fact that the materials available are sub-optimal and the emotional overlay associated with this reconstruction is very significant, the task assumes nearly Herculean dimensions. It is no wonder that it is fraught with a plethora of complications."
And much of the surgeries fail w dire consequences for the rest of their lives. Very sad to see young people’s lives destroyed because they were brainwashed by people who are supposed to have their best interests in mind. These subversive teachers are criminals by doing unapproved activities w children behind parent’s backs. They should be Fired & lose their teaching credentials! Children are supposed to be protected from extremists at school & be educated not indoctrinated!
My child had both of these teachers in 7th grade and I cannot thank you enough for publishing this article! My suspicions have been confirmed. My child’s personality changed during the year she had these teachers and not for the better. She started getting hostile and defensive when I would ask her about school. She clearly did not want to be asked about it anymore, it has gotten better this year but she still gets hostile at times when I ask her how school was or what was discussed in a specific class. She has never mentioned pronouns but the once extremely girly/feminine daughter I had is no more! Non-binary/means more toward male than female is now I would describe her now. I know that’s the cool thing on social media now but it’s pretty obvious she was groomed by Caldiera! One of her friends who also had Caldiera and Baraki in 7th grade came out as they/them that year and put pronouns in her bio everywhere and like my daughter, was no longer feminine/girly. I have long suspected something like this was going on BVMS but never had any proof because my kid wouldn’t talk. And that’s very out of character for her, she’s always been very open. It has gotten better now that she’s no longer in these 2 teachers classes but they definitely left a lasting impression on her.
Hello. The next School Board meeting is scheduled for December 15th. I think the School Board should hear how parents feel about what these teachers are doing - I, for one, am very disturbed and upset.
Wait, so kids had a personality change when they entered adolescence? Who ever heard of such a thing! And now she's coming out of it as she gets older? Who ever heard of such a thin!. Must be due to the gayz!
Seriously, you're really stretching. Next thing you know you'll be blaming gays for when it rains. Or when it doesn't. Must be the gayz!
GTFOH you pedo. That is not at all what anyone is saying here and my kids personality change had absolutely nothing to do with adolescence. Obviously you support child groomers. You are probably one yourself.
That's one of the most vile accusations you can make about someone. It's definitely not true in my case, and since nothing I've said has given you any reason to believe it, I can only assume it reflects your own inner world and secret desires. Please stay away from children.
The fact that you are on this substack and harassing the participants who are having a civil discussion about a serious problem facing society means you are a nefarious character and up to no good.
So these teachers are essentially a grooming gang operating under the auspices of CTA. Unbelievable.
Right? But we've been told that our fears they would go after our children were just crazy.
You are not crazy, you are a hateful bigot who I pray has no children that might be gay
You are hysteric and most people don't like your behaviour.
Most people on this thread? Big surprise, I am a gay woman fighting against bigots using religion to harm their kids and those of others.
These teachers are no way grooming anyone, that is a hysterical lie.
They SAW kids looking up LGBTQ stuff when in online learning and tried to help. Now, I might have made an announcement to the entire class vs to the one student, but they in no way are grooming anyone. You are a bunch of liars.
Yet you have no idea what the sexual preferences are of the commenters here, including me, just as you have no idea if any are cross-dressers (trans). You don't get a gold star for announcing you are gay. You do get lumps of coal for wanting to come between parents and children. Stay away from children.
I DON'T CARE what your sexual ORIENTATION (not preference, that shows you are ignorant and/or bigoted). And calling a trans person a cross dresser shows us all you would certainly damage a teen who ended up LGBTQ. And honey, you are WAY TOO LATE insisting I stay away from children, I donate and volunteer with homeless LGBTQ teens who's parents (people like you) threw them in the street. I will do more to help LGBTQ teens than you will ever help a single person other than yourself.
Those teachers clearly stated that they were monitoring the children looking for recruits. This is exactly the strategy pedophiles use. They were recruiting and grooming plain and simple.
I wonder if the US govt. could arrest the whole teachers' union for "conspiracy to commit child abuse" or even "child endangerment".
That is simply a lie
You constantly repeat the same bullshit. Be what you want but shut up.
No, I will not be told to shut up by some rando dude online. I will stop fighting against bigotry when you all learn how to get your own life and let others live their own.
I would advise you to stop.
I'd advise you to stop harming LGBTQ teens.
You mean they spied on the kids' online searches, and "volunteered" to tell the kids all about "gender fluidity", whether the kids wanted to hear it or not. Seen it done, and it needs to be stopped.
This agenda exists in Canada too and the momentum is quite strong. I know teachers who would have no problem with subverting parental control because they the teachers think they know best and don't respect parents. They are not in partnership with parents, but their own identity politics and political leanings. If the agenda is to get children to develop their reading and critical thinking skills, well, that's their job. Their job should not be to recruit 6 graders with the idea of cultivating LGBTQers.
Okay groomer.
When you meet your maker she will tell you that you hurt many with your bigoted views, good luck getting through the pearly gates. LOL
Has it never occurred to you that if you had grown up today, you would have been labeled a “boy,” sterilized, and put on cross sex hormones?
I can’t get my head around gay people that support “queer” garbage. It’s literally a parasitic movement of mostly straight people who have taken over everything gay people created for themselves. Queer people *hate* lesbians. Young lesbians are being brainwashed by “queer” men in dresses that they must sleep with penises, ffs. They’re relentless about it.
This is not in any way like the fight for gay liberation, or women’s rights, even though the queer crowd will tell you it is. This is an entitlement movement, created and funded by autogynephiles and paedophiles, marketed as a “civil rights movement” to sneak it past the left as something good. It is not.
So now I’m wondering if you are actually a lesbian who lives in a bubble, or in fact a dude who calls himself a lesbian because you’re an entitled, “queer” person, yourself
Who's the bigot here?
…..still….you
Heheheheh. I'll bet your think I'm White.
And they are crazy. Unless your fear is that they won't be bullies. Then you should be afraid.
Good lick with your career. It may go further if you learn to use left parentheses.
You can always find the libturd in a conversation. They're the one reading every post repeatedly hoping to find a typo so that they can pretend that a typo is some sort of an example of a weak mind. Of course, it couldn't have anything to do with extra large hands, being in a hurry, poor eyesight, distraction nor a defective keyboard, could it, genius? Among your kind, that is what passes for "substantive factual debate". "I found a typo so I won the argument". Yuh...wutever....
Seriously? Anyone of any integrity would admit there are typo police on both sides of the aisle.
I wouldn't know. I'd have to take your word for it, as I've never run into one that wasn't a libturd who was losing an argument & grasping at straws. If that fails, they can always try to play the race card instead.
Ummm, I think he was addressing Paula the bot? 😂
Ad-hominem fallacies are perhaps my biggest pet peeve! I try to explain that because they cannot find a legit response they feel the need to attack a persons character or morality. In response they often just keep repeating their same baseless argument. It's like they are stuck on repeat. BTW I have seen people of all stances use ad-hominem. They really need to teach the media about the meaning of ad-hominem. They are the worst! I am not choosing sides in the Rittenhouse trial but ad-hominem probably caused him to win the case. Even legal prosecutions these days are vulnerable to such childish behavior.
No. Rittenhouse won his case because of (a) video tape evidence showing him running away from the mob chasing him and (b) the testimony of the prosecution’s main witness, the guy who got his arm blown off by Rittenhouse because he pointed his Glock In Rittenhouse’s face. Add in the way the self-defense laws are written and the nature of gun regulations in Wisconsin in particular and you have a situation where no matter how outrageous Rittenhouse’s presence was, he was still going to get off.
Note that I am in no way defending him. His lack of judgment was typical of an unsupervised minor male with a fascination for guns and the police, who saw himself as Robin Hood. Wouldn’t it have been great if his father, who lives in Kenosha, had said to him, listen kid, put the AR-15 back in the shed and go have a milkshake with your friends. Nothing good will come of your good intentions. But no.
There were and are and will always be ad hominem attacks on Rittenhouse’s character, lies about who he was, where he came from and what his intentions were. It is appalling to hear public figures, politicians, and journalists regurgitate these falsehoods over and over again, as though Rittenhouse was a psychotic Unabomber type with a racist vendetta, driving across 37 state lines so he could go and kill blacks, with his big old gun on the front seat. It would be laughable if it weren’t so pernicious to hear people with a big platform lie and lie and lie some more.
But the case was decided on legal grounds, the kind of grounds that need to be revisited and probably won’t be, because we love our guns so much.
I recommend a current article in Quillette by a legal scholar named Ronald Sullivan, which explains the rule of law and how it accrued to Rittenhouse in this case. Sullivan is also not a fan of Rittenhouse’s actions, but thank goodness he knows the law and writes and thinks with an objectivity that we rarely have access to anymore.
Clearly, she only appeals to those on the right.
Can't be one of ours. Trash morals are the domain of the left. That's what this whole (hole) article is about. You can have her. She's likely right out of one of your "Gender Queer" (like the kids' book) recruitment orientation gulags.
"Recruitment orientation gulags"? Apparently lying is not one of the trash morals you object to. But I've always found the right to be full of moral relativists.
LOL, Sarstan! And they're probably paying customers.
Only if she's willing to do them.
Kiddie GSAs for kids who are under 18 should not exist, especially if the adult leader/advisor also works for the school and has any chance of being the kid's classroom teacher. They have too much influence. Further, school personel should not list or request pronouns which is a litergy of the religion/cult of Gender Ideology and goes against the separation of church and state.
They should at least require parental consent, just like if Johnny or Becky wanted to play a sport.
I agree but they don't. I really think it's inappropriate to have sex and gender identity clubs under 18. And, how would you keep your kid out when her friends go as "allies"? They'd find a way to attend if they don't have a lot of pals. Then they are lead to the weird side through a series of little steps. These clubs tend to be part of school assemblies but are generally not mentioned to parents.
And, a school principal cannot get the teachers inline regarding the names and pronouns they use on your kid even when they want to do so. They'll use other names and pronouns behind your back.
It is not a sex club. What a lie. And straight kids who support their gay friends cannot be "converted" you fool. I am so sorry you are a mother. Your poor kids, I hope they disown you when they are 18.
Kids need these when their parents are filthy bigots, it helps the teens to not end up dead. I guess you would prefer a kid of yours who is gay to kill themselves than be gay.
The only "filthy bigot" I see here is you because you're attacking parents who wish to protect their children from grooming. It seems to me "Proud Pedo" would be a better moniker for you, but "Democrat" describes a similar character defect, so that's fine too. If there was a block button on here, I'd use it on you soooo fast.
This is not grooming and you cannot make a person trans or gay. People like you cause LGBTQ teens to end up homeless, on the streets, or dead. I will fight against bigots like you to protect kids till I die. So guess what, get used to me, I am not going anywhere lady. I will protect kids from you
You cannot make a person Gay, or Trans? Perhaps not, but you can certainly influence younger kids into living that life style, maybe go as far as making them try it out. That is absolutely possible. How else would you explain the explosion in young teens all suddenly Gay and Trans over the last few years, are you really stupid enough to believe that they all suddenly believe its ok to "be who they are" or is it just the trendy thing to do and they also want to fit in. You really don't know anything about children or young teens at all. What you know, is what you have been told to say. Calling people "Bigots" classic buzzword, bet you have called people any number of "****phobes" and many of the -"ist's" recently as well, haven't you? Have you tried thinking for yourself for 30 minutes, or did that hurt to much not to be told what to do, think, and say?
Seriously, did you grow up in a bubble? Did you once see kids in Middle and High school who will do nearly ANYTHING to be accepted by their peers? We are seeing adults claim to be Gay, Bi, and Trans just for some glamor and acceptance, you think that is outside of the realm for people who hardly truly know who they are?
I cant even read your idiotic comments anymore, you lack of knowledge makes my brain hurt. You lack the simple ability to learn, or even debate in a way that doesn't make everything personal.
Any teacher actively trying to hide something from Parents, is up to no good. UNLESS it is actual abuse going on in the home. You really think every single one of these parents would be against their child being Gay if that were the case? Uhhhh NO. I certainly wouldn't care if my children were gay. I just want them to live a fulfilling life and be happy. I still wouldn't want any of them to spend any time with teachers like this, especially in their covert clubs, or with "teachers" that would openly lie to me. This stuff is seriously deranged and disturbed behavior from those "teachers".
Your sentiments are over-reaching. It is inappropriate to “protect kids from you.” Each parent has the right to imbue his/her values and morals into their own children. This debate is non-binary no pun intended); you are not 100% right and neither is the parent. Instead of juvenile name calling, how about dialoguing — listening to and learning from one another?
Thankfully your views are irrelevant and LGBTQ teens need support that parents like you fail to offer, thus causing many teens to literally kill themselves, shame on you! And lady, you are one nutty one
You want to attribute suicide to the parents on mass scale? Try looking at the Trans community, whos suicide rate is outrageously high even after transition. I am not one to tell what/who someone can or cant be. Do your thing. But with statistics like that, there is something serious happening and its not just some people calling them names.
You name keeps popping up with some ridiculous personal attacks and bullshit comments. I suggest you look outside your bubble for information, perhaps you can learn something rather than just being a printer for talking points. All you do is personally attack people in every comment. You must be an awfully sad person. I hope you find a reason to be happy, but with an attitude like that, I cant say I am surprised.
I contribute the high suicide level in LGBTQ teens to BIGOTS LIKE YOU, many who are indeed parents. My own parents would have thrown me out if they knew I was gay back then. I am fighting to protect kids with parents like my own!
As far as trans people, they face the MOST DISCRIMINATION and outright HATE from BIGOTS LIKE YOU, no wonder they too face mental health issues and inability to get good jobs etc.
I suggest you look outside your bible honey, I have trans friends who are quite happy, but they do not know you.
Lol I am positive your alleged trans friends would probably like me more. You know literally nothing about me but constantly call me all these names. I don't even own a bible and am not a particularly religious person. So wrong about that (and everything else but that's for another time)
Trans people face "the most discrimination"? Lol from who?
Also the high suicide rate is in trans people in general and not just Teens. It's not just because some people made fun of them or didn't agree with their decisions. Plenty of literature about it. But it stems from many places. Sometimes it's not being satisfied with their transition, or still feeling wrong after it, or even after realizing that it wasn't the right thing to do and now they feel like their lives are over because of all the harm they have done to their body and mind. All very real situations that should be looked at SERIOUSLY before someone make such a significant life altering decision.
I have never hated anyone for something as frivolous as being gay or having different views on gender. Weather or not I agree has no bearing on how I treat someone. Because I believe that people are MUCH more than their sexual preferences, skin color, or any other random things that people like you are trying to lay down as defining characteristics.
They aren't. There is a reason that I don't walk around all day wearing shirts how "proud" I am of being my particular race, gender, sexual preference. Because literally none of those are who I am.
I ASSURE you any self respecting trans person would not like you one bit. Not if you here working to harm them and lives. And you know nothing other than what you read in anti-trans places, you fool only yourself that anyone who is not a bigot would like you

These groups should not exist for under aged kids, but where they do exist parents should insist the school air the documentary "The Call is Coming From Inside the House"

There is no both sides to hateful bigotry and you re hardly loving. And no way in hell will I click links here, maybe you are dumb enough, I am not .
& the Teachers Unions steal billions of taxpayers money every year & every time Democrats pass a spending bill they include paying the Teachers Unions. They have tons of cash on hand but don’t improve schools in squalid conditions or give good teachers raises, instead they spend the money on lawyers to go after parents or pay lawsuits and use the money for political purposes.
Wow, how much more uneducated of a comment can you come up with? You need to put down the bottle lady
Prove otherwise. I can confirm most of that is true, especially in the California School system. Plenty of money, most of it does not get spent for the benefit of the Children, or most of the Teachers. As stated by several of my teachers from back when I was in High School (early 2000s) up until recently explained by some of those very same teachers who are currently at the same High School, and my Ex, whom was a teacher. I am inclined to believe the people that are currently in these positions rather than someone who must believe that Government fixes things...
Don't make a comment unless you can back it up with literally ANYTHING, "Proud Democrat". Instead your option was to attack that person personally. Whatever is going on in your life, with a little effort you can fix it and be happy for once, rather than attacking other people in a shallow bid that it will fix your miserable existence.
Prove something is not happening? You are not very bright are you? So, your friends are stealing tax money that is meant for kids educations? That is what this sounds like like. AGain, not very bright using anecdotal (look it up) stories to accuse thousands of people of stealing education tax money.
I suggest you and your buddy who I replied to offer some evidence for YOUR claims, and not demand I prove a negative. I see you are quite young, did you ever actually graduate that high school? LOL
I am fighting to protect teens from bigots like all those here, and am happy to do so. Those who are miserable, like you must be, fight to discriminate against others. The rest of us protect all to live their lives as they wish.
Ad hominem attacks in responses are another tool of perversion promoting leftists.
You do not even understand what ad hominem means. I was commenting on the lie that wrote, teachers are not stealing our tax money. jeeze
Man I started ignoring you nearly immediately because you lack general skills of conversations without acting like a petulant moron.
But first of all a "lie" can't write anything. And so we both agree that teachers aren't stealing tax dollars. That's good.
You need to learn to take an L when it comes. It's super important for individual growth, which you seem to have done none of throughout your life. I don't know how old you are. If I were to guess contextually I would assume somewhere around 13-15 based on your argumentative tactics and lack of ability to speak, make a cohearant argument, respond without calling someone whatever buzzword you think is currently important.
I suggest you get better. No one here, maybe a couple but I don't have the time to browse the whole thread, but from what I have seen no one agrees with you. That's not because everyone is terrible and you are the only one with a moral compass. It's a you problem, you are the issue. Go take some time to yourself and let the internet do whatever it will. I'm not sure you are cut out for discussion on the internet. As you clearly have zero respect for anyone that doesn't share exactly your beliefs (probably not for those that do either)
You don't know everything, I doubt you know a lot about any subject. It's ok, you can learn but to learn you need to be able to read or watch things you don't like. There is truth everywhere, even if you don't agree with something it doesn't make it not true. Welcome to life.
Spare me, I do not care about you or what you think of me, I know what I am, and I know who I help. Why do you bigots need to write paragraph after paragraph full of BS? Try getting a job

You have SPAMMED me with this lnk. Do you think I am dumb enough to click it? GO AWAY bigot
For some reason my comments keep getting deleted. This is a religion. These people are missionaries for this religion. They are converting children without their knowledge. It does not matter to the missionaries whether the child ever believes in their same beliefs or ever attends their "church" or reads their manuscripts. They only care that the child performs the acts. It perpetuates their strength on the earth.
Don't people understand yet? It is satanic. These are age old satanic rituals and they don't care who is doing them as long as they are done. People are duped and spell-cast. Wake up to reality. Turn from these ideas and look for righteousness
Seriously, PUT DOWN THE BOTTLE and seek help
Contacting your representative probably won't change a thing. Do to the fact that this religion is very prominent and has been for thousands of years. It has evolved, but remains a constant. Many of the people that follow this religion have made their way into key positions and are making the laws and guidelines.
The best way to stave off this perversion of society is to deny its presence. Do not give credence to their beliefs. Don't be a participant by staying quiet and standing idly by.
We see the evidence. The short LIST: legalizing no-fault divorce (part of their religion- chemical marriage), encouraging fornication (part of their religion), legalizing abortion (part of their religion), legalizing homosexuality (part of their religion), transgenderism (a primary focal-point of their religion). And YES, these subjects have all been pushed through every facet of media known to the human race. People are blatantly lying when they say that these themes are not being propagated. What comes next, you ask? Bestiality and pedophilia (Both part of their religion). Do not kid yourself.
Since this IS a religion it should not be taught in public school. They are purposely masking their intent and have been since public schooling was instituted. Your best bet is to know that all the above mentioned in the short LIST is wrong. Do not be swayed by their Bernays-esque tactics. In your own life don't participate in the short LIST. Don't encourage others to take part in the short LIST. BE THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU IS RIGHT BECAUSE THEY ARE WRONG. And stay strong! Stay Strong!Oh and P.S. Start noticing how many "women" on TV have Adam's apples then you will only begin to see the bigger picture here. AND REMEMBER: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Which also could include: Not listening to their music, not watching their movies, not watching their tell-a-vision platforms, not playing their video games, not reading their magazines and not buying their crappy books.
Oh please, do boycott all that is made or done by all LGBTQ folks, you will have a bad hair day for the rest of your life (LOL) never see many movies, miss out on lots of good music. I doubt you read books anyway, so no loss there.
Wow, where did you get your weed, you must be high as a kite to come up with this tripe. I suppose you call yourself "Christian" when in fact you are a filthy hater
Truth to that Psalm 139:19-22 KJV
19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.
21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
You use your religion as a way to assert you are OK to discriminate against those different from yourself. And still feel superior to others who you probably believe will burn in hell.
Keep your cut and paste bible quotes to yourself, anyone can do the same and prove the opposite of your view.

I was especially struck by the young woman who "transitioned" and detransition within the space of 1 year - with lasting harm. She said she started as an "ally" like our daughter who is as yet not physically harmed. This is what is so bad about middle school and high school "Alliance" Groups. IMO they should not exist but if they do it ought to be required for them to watch this video and be allies of mental health.
To: Proud Democrat ~ Just because someone has a different outlook on something does not make them a bigot. It makes them an individual. It's ironic that what you claim in your comments are exactly what these parents are doing. They are fighting to protect their kids.
It is obvious that education is teaching children these alternative deathstyles.
In the summer of 2021 California Gov. Gavin Newsom approved a final state budget that includes $3 million for LGBTQ cultural competency training for public school teachers.
We all know what that means.
Grooming used to occur by molestation, now they are warping children under the guise of education. There are zero benefits to children being privy to any of this perversion.
I am sorry that your parents must not of protected you properly. I am sorry that you were molested and taken advantage of. It sounds like you are very angry and have much to work through. Forgiveness is a good way to begin and I hope you're not reprobate. If you're a sodomite, according to Romans 1 KJV you are of a reprobate mind. No one wants that for anyone, especially their children. We don't want a Sodom and Gomorrah. There is great merit in any attempt to thwart that outcome.
Scientifically, no one is born homosexual or transgender. It is proven. It upsets the LGBTQs, but it is true. So, yes one must turn to homosexuality or transgenderism. It is a choice. Just like it's a choice to hold a gun to one's head. No one here (most likely) is out killing homosexual or trans people or convincing them to kill themselves. If you look at the rate of homicides for the homosexual/trans community it is perpetrated by a partner. Research it. The fact remains these people are attacking each other. We all know that sodomites are pedophiles. Look at the research. It is staggering. You already know this.
I would be highly concerned if parents weren't speaking up about all this.
I am encouraged by knowing that these parents love and care about their children and the children in their community.
Just in closing, if anyone doubts their intentions: Homosexual Manifesto reprinted from The US Congressional Record. Homosexual Activist Outlines Goals of Homosexual Movement by Michael Swift, "Gay Revolutionary" from The Gay Community News, Feb.15-21 1987
"We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to crave and adore us.
Women, you cry for freedom. You say you are no longer satisfied with men; they make you unhappy. We, connoisseurs of the masculine face, the masculine physique, shall take your men from you then. We will amuse them; we will instruct them; we will embrace them when they weep. Women, you say you wish to live with each other instead of with men. Then go and be with each other. We shall give your men pleasures they have never known because we are foremost men too, and only one man knows how to truly please another man; only one man can understand the depth and feeling, the mind and body of another man.
All laws banning homosexual activity will be revoked. Instead, legislation shall be passed which engenders love between men.
All homosexuals must stand together as brothers; we must be united artistically, philosophically, socially, politically and financially. We will triumph only when we present a common face to the vicious heterosexual enemy.
If you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer, at us, we will stab you in your cowardly hearts and defile your dead, puny bodies.
We shall write poems of the love between men; we shall stage plays in which man openly caresses man; we shall make films about the love between heroic men which will replace the cheap, superficial, sentimental, insipid, juvenile, heterosexual infatuations presently dominating your cinema screens. We shall sculpt statues of beautiful young men, of bold athletes which will be placed in your parks, your squares, your plazas. The museums of the world will be filled only with paintings of graceful, naked lads.Our writers and artists will make love between men fashionable and de rigueur, and we will succeed because we are adept at setting styles. We will eliminate heterosexual liaisons through usage of the devices of wit and ridicule, devices which we are skilled in employing.
We will unmask the powerful homosexuals who masquerade as heterosexuals. You will be shocked and frightened when you find that your presidents and their sons, your industrialists, your senators,your mayors, your generals, your athletes, your film stars, your television personalities, your civic leaders, your priests are not the safe, familiar, bourgeois, heterosexual figures you assumed them to be. We are everywhere; we have infiltrated your ranks. Be careful when you speak of homosexuals because we are always among you; we may be sitting across the desk from you; we may be sleeping in the same bed with you.
There will be no compromises. We are not middle-class weaklings. Highly intelligent, we are the natural aristocrats of the human race, and steely-minded aristocrats never settle for less. Those who oppose us will be exiled.
We shall raise vast private armies, as Mishima did, to defeat you. We shall conquer the world because warriors inspired by and banded together by homosexual love and honor are invincible as were the ancient Greek soldiers.
The family unit-spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity, hypocrisy and violence--will be abolished. The family unit, which only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated. Perfect boys will be conceived and grown in the genetic laboratory. They will be bonded together in communal setting, under the control and instruction of homosexual savants.
All churches who condemn us will be closed. Our only gods are handsome young men. We adhere to a cult of beauty, moral and esthetic. All that is ugly and vulgar and banal will be annihilated. Since we are alienated from middle-class heterosexual conventions, we are free to live our lives according to the dictates of the pure imagination. For us too much is not enough.
The exquisite society to emerge will be governed by an elite comprised of gay poets. One of the major requirements for a position of power in the new society of homoeroticism will be indulgence in the Greek passion. Any man contaminated with heterosexual lust will be automatically barred from a position of influence. All males who insist on remaining stupidly heterosexual will be tried in homosexual courts of justice and will become invisible men.
We shall rewrite history, history filled and debased with your heterosexual lies and distortions. We shall portray the homosexuality of the great leaders and thinkers who have shaped the world. We will demonstrate that homosexuality and intelligence and imagination are inextricably linked, and that homosexuality is a requirement for true nobility, true beauty in a man.
We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the ferocious bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to play seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows throughout the ages. We too are capable of firing guns and manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution.
Tremble, hetero swine, when we appear before you without our masks."
Disgusting.
LOL, BOY DID I HIT A NERVE! LOL LOL LOL
I am not going to read this trash, but I will tell you you fit the definition of a bigot to a T. And you think you hide your hate, or fool anyone into believing you love your neighbors by abusing your religion.
And then, you do all you can to harm those just trying to live their lives without harassment. You post LIE AFTER LIE and share conspiracy theories and flat out BIGOTRY and HATE Shame on you. If there is a hell, SEE YOU THERE! LOL LOL
They are.

Bigoted comment and totally uneducated
lmao shut the fuck up Karen
YOu talking to me? Na, I will hang around and defend the truth
I disagree with this stance myself. I wonder whether she is trying to walk a fine line and is letting /leading her readers to "complete the square" for her on this one? You might try reaching out to her directly for a one-one interaction. I hope we have a President DeSantis. - LM
Children should never have these surgeries, cross sex hormones, off label cancer drugs, or "affirmation" as the opposite sex. This bill sounds an awful lot like Republicans trying to carve out "religious exceptions" from Gender Ideology. Gender Ideology is a cult religion itself and we need to have enforcement of separation of church and state in the public schools to keep it out and protect the children across the board. Is it ok to chop the head off a child if the parent consents? In ancient Rome it was if the father said so but I we should be living in more civilized times.
"Affirmation" absolutely is grooming. It is a very serious psychological intervention - and incredibly harmful. Instead of grooming children we might get the adults talk therapy so that they understand and cope with reality. Also, it violates a child's human rights to destroy future sexual function and fertility. This "transgender moment" must be thrown on the trash dump of history. We need more strong politicians like Ron DeSantis.
Action items:
1) Contact your Representative in Congress and both Senators. Ask them to co-sponsor Senator Tom Cotton's Empower Parents to Protect Their Kids Act, S.3037:
https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/BILLS-117s3037is
Include in your message a link to this article to explain why S.3037 is needed.
2) Contact your state representatives and ask them to introduce similar legislation at the state level. Again, link to this article.
Note: I am a lifelong liberal Democrat (age 66) who has never voted for a Republican. But this is a cult and it needs to be stopped. It transcends politics.
Hi, MarkS. Same. I'm a lifelong liberal, age 60, who has voted mostly for Democrats until the last few election cycles. I also happen to be lesbian & have never had children. But I am concerned for OTHER people's children & I'm appalled at what is happening in our schools now.
For years I have been getting recommendations from a local environmental attorney who knows the candidates for judges and sometimes recommends Republicans over Dems. But in the last several elections, I have also been carefully studying all the candidates via their websites & FB pages, the Columbus Dispatch online voter guide that allows a side-by-side comparison of multiple candidates, the League of Women Voters' Voter's Guide, Ballotpedia, and candidate panels presented by the Franklin County Consortium on Good Government. I has become a grueling process every election, taking me SEVERAL DAYS of solid research to finally decide for whom to vote.
I am distressed at the number of "True Believers" who are so filled with hate for the GOP that they accept everything the Dem Party does as being on the side of good (never mind that there are principled Republicans still in office, like Mitt Romney & Liz Cheney, and I'd feel enormously relieved if they were President instead of Biden!)
I agree that this is a cult that has taken over. It's misogynistic, REGRESSIVE, anti-liberal (what is more liberal than the right to free speech & freedom of thought & association?), and, ironically, homophobic, and, most dangerous of all, it's AUTHORITARIAN & INDOCTRINATES children!!
I feel so politically homeless b/c there are so few of us warning about these things. Most of the Left is engaged in tribalism & groupthink. (Most of the Right is, too, but, regardless of their motives, conservatives are in the right to oppose the indoctrination of children & introducing concepts to them that are not age-appropriate, and that are purely a belief system. Gender identity ideology is a religion. It has a priestly class ("trans" people, whatever that even means anymore), prophets (Butler, Foucault, politicians, mainstream & Left-wing media), dogma (the "trans women are women" mantra), heretics who are hated & persecuted (trans people who speak out against what is happening, falsely accused people like JK Rowling, who never said anything that was hateful toward trans people and only has spoken against the cult & for women's safety & "identity", detransitioners), & infidels (any "liberal" who doesn't agree & affirm the cult's "statement of faith" 100%).
We are in that last category.
Thanks for your post giving information on how to help. DOING something is the only thing that will keep me from sinking into depression at the overwhelming odds against us. Since this was posted just over 6 months ago, I'm guessing it's too late to act on this legislation??
Hi Donna, I just saw your reply. No, not too late!
Also, very important to oppose the Equality Act, S.393:
https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/senate-bill/393
This law would allow any man to declare himself a women and enter any women's space or event. Every Democrat supports it.

I think that LGB people can help tremendously here by making it clear that T and LGB are not at all the same!

You are bigot, not a Democrat, own it
You are in fact the bigot. People aren’t hateful of others just because they don’t agree with them. But I get it makes it easy to name call line that because you believe it discredits someone who doesn’t see things the way you do.
Being INTOLERANT of INTOLERANCE is not being a bigot
But it is. Being a bigot means being intolerant of those with different opinions or beliefs. If you are intolerant of people who disagree with you, to the point where you are willing to seek to have the government or their employers punish them by causing them harm or your mob harasses them and seeks to silence them instead of listening to and addressing their concerns, you're a bigot. And you are so lacking in self-awareness that you defend your bigotry. The fact that you don't want freedom of speech & thought means that YOU are the authoritarian. Authoritarians are the ultimate bigots because they use force to compel others,— through punishment or simply the FEAR of punishment,— to be silent in criticizing them.
You are sick. Get help.
Says someone who has no foundation to their argument. I’m invoking my right to state these “GSA” groups are spreading misinformation to our kids. There, that’s all it should take to have them removed, right Proud Dem?
I hope your kids if you have any disown you for being hateful
I love how every comment you write is filled with hate…yet everyone else is a bigot! And to say something so despicable as “I hope your kids if you have any disown you for being hateful” just shows how unaccepting you are. You try and preach “acceptance” for people you feel need it, and in the same sentence wish hatred on others. How do you expect anyone to take your opinion seriously when every comment/reply is a personal attack?
I am intolerant of your intolerance. And I would never wish any child have a bigot for a parent, that is not best at all. You call me hateful, I know I am fighting to protect kids from hate coming from anti-trans people like you and the bunch here. You will ever accept trans people, so all the rest of can hope for is that you mind own business and leave trans people alone.
Yeah, because heterosexual men NEVER sexually abuse their daughters. They NEVER rape women & girls. They NEVER commit incest through coercion or force. Your homophobia is SO obvious. You won't admit that MEN, in general, do almost all the raping & sexual crimes, regardless of their sexual orientation. You want to blame LESBIANS, of all people, and want to take their kids away from them, even when their kids are thriving in a happy, loving, decent home. Yeah, and put them into foster care, so heterosexual men can abuse them there!
The fact that you attack Abigail for being fair and rational and NOT bigoted against people because they belong to a certain demographic, shows just how filled with hate you are. Parents have a right to KNOW what is happening with their kids in schools, and schools have no right to treat children as if they are adults and capable of making their own decisions about confusing things like pronouns or their "identity". If you want to be angry, be angry at countries who take children away from parents, not for physical or sexual abuse, but because they don't want to participate in the GASLIGHTING that is going on today in which boys compete in girl's sports or take scholarships designated for ACTUAL GIRLS away from girls, or win "Woman of the Year" awards, or who are recorded in police reports & reported by the media as WOMEN when they engage in pedophilia or sexual assault or raping women.
But you don't actually CARE about children! You just want to spew hate toward ALL LGB people, all T people, & toward Abigail for not sharing in your irrational hatred & prejudice. Here's an idea: How about we just people by the CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER, not by their demographic? How about we don't make sweeping accusations of entire segments of society? (That always ends badly.) How about we encourage the GOOD role models in the LGB community, not be adversarial to ALL people in that group? How about we not condemn people without evidence? How about we NOT attack every trans person for this gender identity ideology that does not represent their values, beliefs, or lives? There ARE trans people speaking out against this, just as there are LGB people speaking out against it. Why not be ALLIES against the IDEOLOGY threatening ALL of our children? Ideologies are the enemy, not our fellow humans.
My kids have all gone to this school. My youngest is there now. Caldeira has been pushing this stuff since her own daughter transitioned to a male during the years my oldest two were there. Since then this is her main focus…all of my kids have been subjected to it in some way or another in her classroom.
The mothers who "transitioned" their daughters to male (like that's possible) will be the last to let go of promoting this. To do so such a mother would have to admit to herself that she's hurt her child. It's like these moms are trying to convince themselves the cult religion is true. In reality we've historically had a very small number of men with one of two psychological problems dividing into straight (autogynephilia) and gay (androphilic) subcategories. It's thought that a small minority of those people may benefit from medical procedures.
I am no psychologist, but it seems to me this is a variant of Münchhausen by proxy.
I think so, too. I'm no psychologist either, but there's also something up with our education establishment. How can "use your pronouns" have gained so much traction? How have our teachers been allowed to stray from teaching basic subjects? How are the unions able to do anything more than negotiate salary? What happened to respecting the values of the family? Why do we allow Gender Ideology in the schools which do not allow other religion?
I think you hit the nail on the head...why are school teachers teaching our children about SEX and SEXUAL ORIENTATION...they might as well teach kids to be atheist and than they can recruit them into Antifa.
Echoes of CEO of mermaids in the UK who took her son to Thailand to be castrated for his 16th birthday because it was illegal in UK. She now advocates affirming any child who is gender non conforming. I note the 3 kids helping her were non binary or very gender fluid, no mention of gay or lesbian
A definition of narcissism is the wish to make the real world conform to one’s fantasy. This is what Trans activists are engaged in whether they know it or not. It’s the most depraved form of narcissism that reaches for other people’s children. It will not end well for them.
Yes I would have to agree...why are they recruiting kids into this. I thought it was supposed to be natural...why the need to recruit?
I feel for her. She likely knows in her heart that she's done something horrible to her daughter and regrets it, but she can't admit it. LovingMother is right, the parents who transitioned their kids will be the last holdouts when the trans insanity comes to an end.
However, none of that excuses her behavior in the classroom. If she were covertly recruiting Muslim students for a closet, unsanctioned Christian club against their parents wishes, her district would find a way to discipline her. They may not be able to fire her, but there are lots of ways a district can make your life so miserable that you eventually quit. the fact that the school board and superintendent aren't doing those things means 1) they're supporters, or 2) they're cowards.
Stop being transphobic you dumb fuck. It’s her son get it through your thick fucking skull
Goodness, you're angry and use violent words. Check your blood pressure, son.
Damn right we are angry as hell at the bigots who cause so many teens to kill themselves due to their parents telling them they are sinners.
...they're killing themselves because they're extremely mentally ill. They have severe mental problems. Not because they were "born in the wrong body" and their parents said they were wrong.
The cognitive dissonance with you people is stunning.
The suicide rate is massive and far outpaces that of gays and lesbians, which by your measure should be killing themselves at basically the same rate "due to their parents telling them they are sinners". But that's not the case, is it?
You idiots can't reconcile the following:
A. When faced with an individual who wants to have their arms amputated because they were "born in the wrong body" and are convinced they should've been born with no arms (something called "body integrity disorder"), your answer is, of course, that they have a mental illness (because, well, they do.) But...
B. When faced with a child that wants to chop their DICK OR BREASTS off because they're convinced they were "born in the wrong body", well...that's perfectly normal. Nothing wrong there.
FFS. You are in a cult.
I will never ever stop fighting hateful bigots that cause kids to hate themselves and sometimes commit suicide due to not being able to be what their parents want them to be. LGB teens have it a bit easier today than when I was a gay teen and had parents who would have beat me than kicked me out if they knew. Trans people today face the hate and bigotry I faced as a teen, due to HATEFUL BIGOTS LIKE YOU. And your analogy is asinine. There are many of us who grew up in hate that will never stop fighting to protect LGBTQ kids, and you need to learn to accept others who are not like you. Or end up being known as a hateful bigot
Provide evidence of this please

Ben, it sounds like you have some sort of anger problem when you respond to a person with words like that - words you would probably call "violent" if they were used against you.
Perhaps you need to lower your testosterone dose and/or go to anger management therapy. Clearly you have a problem when all you can do is spew your impotent rage at someone whose only transgression was to voice his opinion.
Don’t be a tough guy online Mr. Bottom Surgery. Nobody needs to bend to the whims of the one transformer in the entire school. We need to stop indulging people like you in your mental illness.
I have never seen so many filthy bigots in one place in my life. wowsa.
Heheheheh. Try looking in a mirror.
I have nothing wrong with trans people in fact I have always supported equal rights with LGTBQ communities and have experimented myself....with that said there is an AGE where children do not understand themselves and they don't need to be indoctrinated by ANYONE! ESPECIALLY not untrained teachers! They don't need to be called straight, gay, trans pan, they are just kids...let them be kids. The whole sexual orientation talk needs to be put off until older teen/adulthood. Let's just normalize that people of different sexes can have feelings for each other in middle school...in high school more can be talked about but we still need to discourage sex! News flash you CANNOT KNOW your true sexual identify until you can actually have sex, everything to that point is just experimentation. Experimentation is normal but we NEED to back off this rush to label because the truth is sexuality is very, very fluid especially in young adults and teens! Some choices (by trans/pan etc) can have permanent consequences don't you think we should put this off just like we put off the choice to drink/smoke/join the military to the age of 18? I am just asking that we put this stuff off a little bit longer. Over-seuxalition is a theme of the 21st/22nd Century...children are even going through puberty sooner and the push to sexualize children at a younger age could have detrimental affects.
Please find a more mature and cogent way to express your opinion. In doing so, you will likely find an opportunity to actually dialogue with folks whose opinions differ from yours.
Are you her "son"? You sound extremely defensive.

So that’s what happened! Her kid transitioned and now she has to deal with her trauma by perpetuating the insanity. That’s very sick.
No, she is doing what her son needs, you are a hateful bigot who would rather than kid died than have to accept he is not like you.
The suicide rate for transitioned "transgenders" is much higher than that of gays.
They can be denied a job, housing, even medical care in many states. How the hell would you feel? (Don't bother answering, you have no heart)
This is just awful! Pushing and brainwashing children is not educating them. Reading and stalking their Google searches...this is against the law. I would say GOODBYE TENURE!
My daughter had both teachers and the year she had them, I noticed certain changes. I didn’t know her daughter had transitioned to a male! This certainly explains a lot. My daughter and at least one other were clearly influenced by her.
Thank God, if your daughter only had you she would grow up to be a bigot too
Please refrain from stopping to the level of judging the said parent’s love for her child; using profanity and name does not buttress your viewpoint. Rather, it serves to alienate others and prevents an opportunity for meaningful dialogue.
I do not care, and will not refrain from wishing the best for all kids, and the best is not having bigoted parents!

Yes. Its been going on for a long time. The district knows and so does the principal.
Aw.....your kids forced to learn there are all sorts of people in the world. I bet you also refuse your kids learn about slavery, since it might hurt their fee fees
You obviously know nothing about this since your children did not attend this school. Mine did. I can post the 1000s of emails to the school if you think we are just talking about hurt feelings. It's not about the club, or the teaching when it was taught as it's supposed to be taught. It's about the subversive tactics and the outright defiance and negligent reaction to the parents asking, demanding answers for years. And it was wrong and hurt many families and students at this school. My kids were also discriminated against in classes by these teachers because they could tell their mom was onto them. I have proof to that by the way. Hey, Proud Democrat, do you support public school teacher's spying on children into their parent's home computers through Google? Using your tax dollars to do what appears criminal behavior? That a federal offense, last I checked through means of wire. And those teachers blatantly admitted tot it at a CTA conference that audio tapes they session for all participants and members to buy at cost later? They also requested other California teachers to follow their behavior at that conference. That being said, that's called indoctrination - like Hitler, Mao, etc. sounds like you support that? I would say you should check with all the students harmed by these teachers - not just the LGBTQ ones. Hmmm.
Oy vey, GMAFB. I am SO SICK and tired of all the anti LGBTQ people like yourself. I am older, and went through hell as a teen due to hateful parents and teachers and I will fight like hell to protect the kids today to be who they are and not be subject to discrimination and hate from the likes of you
Ok. So how will you protect my kids from discrimination they encountered. Please fill me in. You said you would fight like hell. Keep your comments coming they are great evidence in the future lawsuit aimed at the district.
I will elect people who will REFUSE TO BAN BOOKS refuse to deny all students the ability to do sports, or join clubs if they want to. I will make sure all the bigoted laws you guys propose fail. I have nothing to do with this school or lawsuit, you are a desperate bigot who needs to get YOUR OWN LIFE and let others live theirs.
Ah, but you and your cohorts aren't letting people, especially children, live their own lives, are you? You're propagandizing them to do what they don't really want, just because it's fashionable.

Ah! There you go senselessly conflating the demand for neopronouns, hormones and plastic surgery with 400 years of forced extraction of unpaid labor!
So you are not one of those bigots who are also racist and insist if teachers teach about racism in the US your kids will feel bad? I don't believe it. If a teen wants to be called with a certain pronoun how the hell does that hurt you?
It hurts other people’s children who think it’s an option for them as well.
YOU CANNOT MAKE ANYONE LGBTQ. You either are or you are not, this is not an option. Most people experiment, not all, but many, and that does not make them gay.
Is it SO HARD to call a person the way they wish to be addressed? Who the hell are you to tell anyone who they are?
Are you suggesting that these teachers are training their students to be LGBTQ? Or are you suggesting forced labor is an option? LOL And forced labor? Are you a Daughter of The Confederacy? That would explain your inability to use word slavery.
You cannot make ppl LGB, that is true. But Trans is not LGB. And LGB doesn’t require ppl to take cross sex hormones and get surgeries. Nor does LGB require novel pronouns that push people to deny biological reality.
LOL. Soundsl ike your kids are subjected to your main focus - idiocracy and poor parenting.
I speak facts and logic. It’s helpful to not get into emotional name calling…it doesn’t do anything except make people disregard any points you might really want to make. We all want the same thing..safe healthy learning environment for our kids. Let’s talk about the facts and work on a solution.
That’s hard to swallow when the district and principal were told about this for years.
So what facts and logic are you speaking? How would you create a safe healthy learning environment for LGBT kids?
Ok. Great. Thank you. Let’s talk about this. First of all these teachers are not licensed, educated, or equipped to be encouraging or inviting any of these kids to transition…and that is what has been going on…do you agree? A child who at this young age is looking to transition should be cared for and counseled by a doctor ( the irreversible affect of adding hormones) a mental health physician ( the emotional side of such a transition at such a young age) and with parents’ full knowledge. None of this criteria exists at BV. For children who are or have transitioned I would hope our school is a safe, healthy learning environment that is welcoming and inclusive. The problem for me ( and I think most parents) is with these two teachers seeking out through snooping on google and evesdropping on kids who have questions or are searching and inviting them into this very pro trans environment. These are young impressionable kids and for the most part they may not have any idea what they are really engaging in. It’s one thing, and a wonderful thing to create an environment of inclusion and kindness but it’s another, and dangerous as well as criminal to promote snd entice these kids into uncharted territory where there is no turning back and no parental or other mental/ medical support system. Please tell me your thoughts and where I am wrong :)
The district knew and so did the principal.
I don't think you know what transition actually means for kids. What, specifically, are the irreversible effects of the hormones you're referring to? And what hormones specifically are you referring to? Because the only hormones that trans kids can take for transitioning are puberty blockers. Puberty blockers are completely reversible, cisgender kids are prescribed puberty blockers when they get puberty too early and can come off it at any time. So what exactly are you referring to?
In March 2021, Sweden's Karolinska Hospital, one of the world's top medical teaching institutes, announced: Puberty blocking "treatments are...fraught with extensive and irreversible adverse consequences such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, infertility, increased cancer risk, and thrombosis. In light of the above, [such treatments] will not be initiated in gender dysphoric patients under the age of 16."
So I would ask these questions. Do you know that they aren't licensed, educated or equipped? Have you seen their list of education certificates and qualifications? Are they inviting kids to transition? Where does it say that? Or what student has made that claim? Or are they creating an environment where kids can speak freely and ask questions?
I agree that doctors and mental health professionals along with families should be the first line of conversation. But what happens if families are unwilling to listen or provide messages of hate that make students feel badly about themselves and even more confused. The suicide attempt rates for transgender teens is close to 50%.
Have you asked your school what their inclusion and safety practices are for LGBT youth? Do they have a gender neutral restrooms where students can go if they need to use a facility? What about locker rooms and changing facilities?
I don't think it's wise to assume that the article's assertion of snooping and stalking kids is some nefarious plot. All schools were on distance learning last year...don't you think it's possible that teachers, in the normal course of their monitoring student academics, would see such searches and conversations without resorting to "spying." I would agree the use of the word "stalking" is highly unfortunate. But presentations are often made for engagement and entertainment value...so language choices are often made for a friendly audience. Taken out of context they seem worse than they were intended.
As a parent of a kids at that school, do you see evidence of enticements? What would those be? Is it possible that the kids are just looking to hang out with other kids who are like them?
Have you attended one of their meetings? Do you know what actually happens there? Have you asked them? Have you asked the teachers who run the program what happens in the room? Or are you basing ALL of your assumptions on this one article which is written with the intention to cause controversy? Do you really think it is possible for two teachers at a public school to persuade students to become transgender and then also provide them the medicines to do that?
I think you are 100% correct to care about kids having welcoming and inclusive spaces. Are you doing anything at your kids school to help with that?
Kaela - they are not licensed. I have asked the school countless times to bring in professionals. I gave them names, I gave them numbers. For perspective - this is a school with only 300 students.
It was a plot. They said so.
Kaela - are you kidding? Its not that they saw the searches, its that they acted on them. Thats criminal and federally protected privacy.
Ok. These are all thoughtful and valid questions and I absolutely do not have answers to all of them. But I appreciate the opportunity to dive a little deeper and think about all of the topics you’ve brought up. Let me get back to you. But in the meantime what I will say is that as far as what have I done to promote inclusion and kindness for my kids and at my kids school is that I have always tried to role model to my kids and the many kids whose classes I have subbed in over the last 20 years…
Wrong. More coming as to the harassment endured by these two teachers.

This article deals with an extracurricular club and says nothing of content teaching and classroom practices. According to the article, she is an award winning teacher.
No. She was allowed full rein to do what she wanted to the detriment of children.
No. She ran assemblies that were focused on LGBTQ. And they showed videos in class too.
Abigail, you are a treasure. Thank you. This article needs a wide audience.
I'm very sure the woke media will take it up and try to discredit it. But the cat's out of the bag, and the truth will win out just as it did in Virginia.
In California? A few feel-good cliches about "you be you" and the woke parents' brains turn right off.
Having said, that, a couple of parents in our class arrived at our last parents' night full of initiative to "create a gender inclusive middle school" which meant never calling kids "boys" and "girls" anymore. We all just ignored them and kept talking in terms of boys and girls. But eventually, they will win. Californians have no defenses.
Don't ignore them! Make it clear they are unwelcome. When the cannons appear outside your castle, you don't ignore it. You take the battle to them.
As my old union chapter secretary said: "We let 'em say whatever the hell they want to say, and then we take 'em out in the alley and beat the sh!t out of 'em."
His tactic worked. These Woke propagandists come from an upper-middleclass culture which despises all physical labor and is horrified of all physical violence, even so much as you'd see in the average football game. In brief, they're overgrown spoiled brats who've been coddled all their lives and think the rest of the world must continue to coddle them. Confronting them firmly, even with words, is enough to scare them back under their rocks.
I bet you consider yourself a Christian. YOu are a bigot who needs to stay the hell out of CA schools.
Heheheheh. I'm a Neopagan, and I left California because of its rotting schools, among other Woke effects.
She's a hack with no credibility. Read the book reviews by scientists and doctors. She's pushing a narrative and your narrow mind is falling for it.
There are MANY credible doctors and scientists that reject this notion of gender fluidity but are silenced due to the extreme measures taken by these "activists" to take down any dissenters and to continue to push their false narrative. Chromosomes exist! You may not be able to choose your gender but that doesn't change reality. I fully support any actual trans person who wants to be perceived as the opposite gender or anything in between, but to claim that you are scientifically that gender is NOT factual and a regression of scientific understanding and practices. It's not so just cause you want it to be. I want to be a dolphin but that doesn't change the fact that I'm human no matter how many surgeries I get.
Wrong. She speaks truth.
Not a hack sorry. I am living it here with this school.
SHE IS A FILTHY BIGOT
This level of espionage perpetrated against students by teachers is horrifying. Kids with strong family ties are mostly insulated...they essentially admit they are targeting the low-hanging fruit, the weak and confused.
Groomers always target the weak. Sadly, once a girl hits the teen years & high school there are all sorts of factors that can make her vulnerable - even when family ties are strong. Mine encountered a perfect storm including an odd and highly controlling boyfriend who thought she was the "best boyfriend" he'd ever had. Teachers think they are helping when they celebrate and lie to families. They do not respect the wishes of parents regarding minors.
yes girls are particularly vulnerable in our society right now. Very trying times. Keep loving her and stay strong. I wish there was something i could do to help out these girls.
I'm so very sorry to hear this. Last week, the autistic daughter of my very first boyfriend had a double mastectomy as part of her "transition."
I am sorry to hear about that. It's all too common. Mine is physically well so far. Gender Ideology works as a cult that is publicly endorsed everywhere. A teenage girls' loving parents are left as the only ones who "have a problem with it".
Yes. It's tragic. Have you ever listened to A Wider Lens with Sasha Ayad and Stella O'Malley on youtube. They are two family therapists who take a very critical eye to the transgender madness.
Have you noticed that Angelina Jolie's teenage daughter Shiloh no longer dresses like a boy but has now embraced her femininity. I hope your dear daughter will do the same.

I once saw a transwoman go into an online tirade because someone commented on Shiloh's androgynous period, noting that the majority of kids who express some gender dysphoria will grow up to be cisgay or even straight. Turns out that some trans activists are really defensive about this (accurate) statement.
Thank goodness that Shiloh was never put on puberty blockers or cross sex hormones. Now she can grow up to be a healthy young woman. I hope her desistence will inspire other young girls to accept themselves as they are.
I saw once a bigot tell a kid they were a horrible person and would go to hell due to how they loved. Anecdotal stories are fun huh?
This is the 2nd time I've heard of people going after the special needs kids. (The first was in the Portland, Ore. school system). It's bad enough going after neuro-typical kids; it's a crime going after the autistic ones who have no discernment whatsoever. My daughter is on the spectrum; I should know.
Yes, girls on the autism spectrum are very much at risk of falling into this. But, they don't have to be on the spectrum. My daughter is not autistic but she is very naive and about as socially clueless as she is intellectually gifted. It doesn't help that the whole world appears to endorse the religion of Gender Identity and promote the recitation of "ones pronouns". You do not have to be any sort of "checked out" parent either. You are not there with them every hour of high school and teachers are empowered beyond parents. It has completely taken over education to the point that even teachers and kids who don't like it feel they must outwardly go along with it. My daughter doesn't have a lot of discernment either. They are young. The young are vulnerable.
I have this concern my daughter in on the spectrum. Her whole life she doesn't really understand the social world the same. When she was 9 she thought Santa could be her boyfriend....she doesn't understand relations. It is very scary...I would like her to wait until she is an adult to make these choices and when she does I will love her no matter her choice.
I believe Abigail reported that 1/3 of girls who take testosterone etc are on the spectrum.
Really! In her book or elsewhere? That's a separate story in itself.
i think it's in her book but maybe i read it here in a substack? i will try to find it.
Yes. And, it’s not just Portland.
Hey PDX - would you mind emailing me about this? I am trying to put together a list of people this has happened to and I'd love to talk further. Kinnerethbooks@gmail.com.
this breaks my heart
Yes. I wrote about her earlier this month.

i just read it. Such a powerful piece. Thank you.
You're very kind.
To young students, teachers are, by definition, the keepers of knowledge. The students hear the consensus of teachers daily, year after year. Then, TV, Hollywood, pop music, sports, politicians, and retailers who want to attract customers all reinforce the lies. How could the kids not come to accept the systematic lies as "truth." Parents, rarely have enough vision behind the scenes to see what is going on and they by the time they realize it, it is so difficult to overcome that they just ignore it and hope that as their kids mature, they'll come to their senses or they'll decide it's just a matter of cultural variation - go along to get along.

That's psychotic gibberish - like all mystical religion.
Of course it's gibberish. That doesn't mean that others don't follow that ancient religion.
There can be no doubt that many people embrace primitive belief systems. Believing - especially in mystical nonsense - inheres in sapiens. That cannot be overcome - you can only try to protect yourself against it.
Helping LGBTQ teens who have bigots for parents is saving their lives, I bet you would prefer your kid dead than LGBTQ.
My dear, I WAS Bisexual as a teen, and had no problem concealing it from my parents and teachers and doctors and preachers. As an adult I was free to explore my sexuality so long as I was discreet about it. The truth is, nobody cares what you do in private. It's only when you propagandize children and demand in public that everybody adhere to *your* standards that people start to complain.
Dear, you were not bisexual as a teen, you had sex with women and men. If you were bisexual you would still be sexually attracted to both sexes, are you? And why on earth would you need to be secret about your life as an adult? I am not talking about having sex in public, so do not pull that nonsense. The only standard I am advocating is to allow people to be who they are and not be banned from bathrooms and sports. You are about DISCRIMINATION plain and simple, own it dear
I didn't have sex as a teen, but waited until I was an adult. Yes, I'm still bisexual, though I've settled down with a male partner. Secret? I'm not "secret"; I just don't shove my sexuality in everybody's face, as certain "activists" noisily propose. Nobody's being "banned from bathrooms", just insisting that people use the bathrooms that fit their plumbing, not their daydreams. Nobody's being banned from sports either, just required to join the division that fits their chromosomes and first 15 years or so of conditioning. If you really were a proud lesbian, as you claim, then you would know about the danger that the transition fashion poses to gay men and women, and you wouldn't be so defensive of ooey-gooey-cooey-mooey Woke teachers trying to "sympathize" confused kids into changing gender.
Can there be society without adherence to someone's standards?
Damn that “low hanging-fruit, the weak and confused!” Oh wait Caroline, you’re referencing CHILDREN! There’s not a single quote in this article that indicates that these educators targeted children that meet any specific criteria other than children who express interest or curiosity regarding gender and sexuality. The ignorance of your comment that children with strong family ties are insulated, while children who lack strong family ties are low hanging fruit, weak and confused is preposterous!
I could not agree more. I think that Caroline means well but children are naturally curious and easy to exploit by nature of being - children. So many girls are weak and confused in the teen years. Didn't we know that already? I always felt our family was strong and people had long commented on the connection I had with my children - and maybe that will save us in the end - but any kiddo can be groomed and teachers have no right to go beyond the 3 Rs with minors. It is very hard when teachers work behind the backs of parents and a girl's folks appear to be the only "unreasonable" ones who are not onboard with "Gender". And, we PAY teachers while they exploit the children in the name of do-gooding. It has to stop.
All that said, I've read that kids in foster care have been especially subject to gender experimentation (including medical).
Oh my goodness. I am truly speechless. The directives from the CTA conference could have come straight from a horror movie.
The other night I watched the Invasion of the Body Snatchers (free on amazon prime). The original version from 1956 in which alien sea pods from outer space secretly conspire to take over the minds and bodies of every resident in a small California town. The only purpose of these cult like pod people is to further the overnight "transition" of every human being into drones who feel no emotions, and most tellingly, derive no sexual pleasure. They tell their hapless victims that this transition will make them happier and solve all their problems.
The pod people carry out their nefarious plot in absolute secrecy. One person in town, Dr. Miles Bennell. realizes what's going on. As the full extent of the horror reveals itself, Dr. Bennell fights a brave and desperate battle to warn the rest of the world about the danger humanity faces before it's too late. The movie ends on a hopeful note as state and national government officials are contacted by telephone.
The parallels between the alien sea pods and the CTA Conference are striking and terrifying. The cult-like devotion and obedience; the goal of "transition;" the destruction of sexual pleasure; the complicity of local officials; the use of family and coworker pod people to spread the invasion within families, schools, and businesses; the secrecy; the conspiracy; the propaganda, the seemingly overnight transition of normal society into something deranged; the California setting; and most importantly, the emergence of smart, brave people who risk everything to warn others of the danger that lies ahead.
Abigail, you are one of those smart, brave people working to save children from the transgender cult that's invaded and taken over the schools. I hope this important story spreads far and wide. Parents and concerned citizens need to know about the cancer that' metastsized overnight in our schools while we slept.
Let the outrage build. Let parents and concerned citizens across the country send the message that we will not tolerate the evil machinations of the aggressive transgender activists, who, as Jennifer Bilek warns us, are well funded by a dark network of autogynephile billionaires.
I also watched this great simple movie again. A great line in it is Brunel saying”… you don’t realize how precious your humanity is until something tries to take it away”
Also see Mars Invades - while the vicious aliens pursue people in the streets intent on zapping them, they broadcast, "Don't run away - we mean you no harm!" It's the same with Liberal-socialist-fascists -- they tell you they're not antiAmerican, they're not antiCapitalist, they're not destructive psychopaths, all the while acting against Americanist ideals, capitalism, and sanity.
And let us not forget the lesson Rod Serling taught us. To serve man -- it's a cook book!
Serling may have borrowed it from CS Lewis' "The Silver Chair".
If America is a democracy the people can choose whatever feconomic system they want; be that capitalism, communism, Marxism etc.
one is. It more American than the other.
Being a resident of America, one (unfortunately) can indeed make that choice. But, one cannot be AmericanIST and also choose marxism. Try thinking logically.
I have no interest in being AmericanIST (meaning nationalist, as in "National Socialist"). Quit confusing issues. It just creates division & distraction. You don't have to be a Nationalist, a capitalist, or even a conservative to oppose trans demands activism & gender identity ideology propaganda being taught in our schools.
Also, the trans / gender identity ideology is about as anti-Marxist as they can get. They CLAIM to be Marxist, but actual MARXISM, (as opposed to Leninism, Stalinism, or, what we see from the Leftists now, Maoism & Mao's "Cultural Revolution" with its "struggle sessions"), deals with the MATERIAL WORLD. It is a very embodied social & economic theory that has to do with physical conditions, not some disembodied "gender identity" that only exists inside people's heads. The Democratic Party went astray when it adopted identity politics instead of sticking with their economic policies that helped working people. So those working people, abandoned by the Dems, turned to Trump & the GOP.
In reality, almost no one in the U.S. ACTUALLY cares about the working poor or the working class in the U.S. (most people who think they are Middle Class are actually working class). The idea that the Corporatists Dems, who in economic policy are Center to Center-RIGHT are Socialists is just total Right-wing propaganda because socialism is the boogeyman to fearful conservatives who think of Stalin & the horrors of Communists regimes around the world & calling your opponent scary names gets votes from tired, uninformed, propagandized people who don't have the time or intelligence, or who are not concerned enough to actually learn about candidates & policies to vote for your candidate.
The National Dem Party is just Republican-light. If they weren't, then Bernie Sanders would have been their candidate, not people like Hillary or Biden, and we would be more like the Scandinavian countries, whose people are universally prosperous, who have a Socialist society providing healthcare, education, etc. free to all.
Interestingly, the country who has taken the lead in backtracking on supposedly "progressive" trans demands legislation & put a halt to the transitioning of children is SWEDEN, not the CONSERVATIVE, CAPITALIST United States! So do NOT suggest that only people on the FAR RIGHT, where you are, oppose the indoctrination & transitioning of children.
In fact, one of the reasons why there are SO many voices in the UK fighting trans demands activism & gender identity ideology is BECAUSE the UK is so class conscious & many of the people are Marxists. It's a viable political philosophy there. It's not despised as it is here. Debbie Hayton is a lifelong labor activist & member of the Labor Party who is trans who is hated by the trance activist "community" because he speaks out against the trans demands activists' on the rights & safety of women & girls. He also defends JK Rowling, which makes him a target b/c of the blind hysteria & hatred of Rowling over things she never even said.
So quit wasting people's time with Far-Right propaganda & tribalism. The Left-wing politicians & media have a field day lumping those of us on the LEFT who oppose identity politics in with the Nationalists like you, who "identify" as
the Neo-Nazis & fascists on the Far Right, any time we suggest anything even slightly critical of the trans demands activists or ideology. This kind of tribalism & polarized thinking only helps keep this gender identity ideology cult in power.
You're a sophist and clueless. Read Darwin and learn biology -- free yourself of philosophical mythology.
Quit name calling & hurling insults. That seems to be the extent of your "arguments". It's lame.
Excellent comparison.
We will help LGBTQ teens with hateful bigots for parents, and there is not a DAMN THING YOU CAN DO TO STOP US.
Of course there is, you silly twit. We can expose you for all the world to see, which we're doing now. I must say, your hysterical reactions are a big help there.
GO F yourself and leave me alone, you have sent like 5 messages in 5 minutes, TRIGGERED?
*Snicker*
You are a Trumper who gets off pissing off, harming or otherwise "owning the libs". Only seriously mentally ill people get off harming or hurting others. Get help
Only seriously mentally ill people make wild assumptions about people they've never even seen.
And, YOU are a confused little snowflake.
You're very confused.

"For decades, gay Americans lived under the shadow of a vicious calumny that—if granted full inclusion in society—they would ‘recruit’ children. This was, and remains, a lie"
I think Abigail is being too charitable here. That's EXACTLY what these teachers are doing. They are recruiting kids to a lifestyle of "choosing a sexual identity" at the age of 12. There's a word for that: "grooming". It's encouraging that most kids aren't interested and essentially have to be tricked to sticking around using marketing gimmicks. Pedophiles have always used these tricks though: "here, would you like some candy, little boy? What we do together stays between us." Sound familiar? Teacher: "we're going to talk about sexual stuff here, and what happens in this room needs to stay here." That's grooming.
Brian, where does it mention gays and lesbians doing this? It doesn't. This is not coming from the LGB community. It's coming from the TQIA radicals. Notice I didn't say community, because its not a community. It's a cult.
I was unaware that the LGB community didn't stand with the TQIA community...when did that happen? Boy I missed a ton.
Of course, social media tries to suppress gay critiques of trans activists. There was - briefly - a subreddit called "Lose The T", in which gay posters expressed resentment toward various aspects of trans ideology and behavior. Reddit shut it down, just as they shut down r/GenderCritical for pointing out the way that trans ideology works to the detriment of women.
Oh, and forgot, they also shut down a subreddit by and for de-transitioners. Because, apparently, people considering transition don't have the right to know that some people who have medically transitioned regret it.
Hi! There are actually still several detransition subreddits up. r/detrans is still going. So is r/actual_detrans. Please factcheck!
Indeed, the L/G/B crowd are beginning to find out that "transitioning" is being used as a "cure" for being Gay -- and never mind the permanent health problems that causes, or that there's no changing back.
Wrong, and you're the liar. These perverts are wasting no time recruiting children into their warped perverted world. However, there is an easy solution to this problem that will stop it in its tracks. It's called a "bullet".
Ew.....too far psycho.

YOu need to have a visit from the cops, that sure sounds like you want to murder someone
Oh, there's a much simpler method; just tease the Woke hysterics until they descend on your house in a mob -- then call in the SWAT team to mow them down. Indeed, there are benefits to calling the cops.
I think the police are unlikely to "mow them down". The police in the U.S. act tough, with all their riot gear, etc., but many of them don't act quickly when there is a real threat. And people would howl if a SWAT team ever "mowed down" a whole group of people. Look at how Portland had 100 nights of rioting from antifa & the night shift of "BLM". What makes you think they are going to respond differently? [Edited to add the question mark at the end!]
It starts at 6th grade at this school. Many kids are 11 years old.
I mean it doesn't mean anything what sex or orientation they are talking about...a teacher shouldn't be talking to a very young teen about Sex...period. Hello...seems obvious.
AYFKM? No one can be made to be gay or trans. GROW THE HELL UP and read a damned book
That's a strawman argument. The issue is that a child can be groomed into thinking or believing things that are falsehoods about their own sexual identity, in the same way that a child can be groomed into believing that having sex with an adult is an acceptable act and an acceptable secret between the child and the adult who is molesting them. From there, in either case, permanent damage may ensue. We've already seen plenty of stories about parents and doctors "allowing their child to make a choice" about their sexual identity and then going one step further beyond that absurdity and physically modifying that child with drugs and hormone therapies, and in some cases, surgery. It's sick. It's wrong. It's gone way too far. It absolutely must be stopped.

You do not even understand the words you are typing! You cannot MAKE A KID TRANS OR GAY. And frankly, with so many haters like you, who the hell wold want to be gay or trans? And kids do not get surgery in this nation. Bottom line, if you do not like what your school teaches and values, home school and leave the other kids alone. Are you also one of those Qanon folks who think the Democrats are all pedophiles?
No, dear, but you can trick a child into thinking s/he *is* Gay or trans when s/he really isn't. And BTW, "QAnon" is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the FBI, used for False Flag actions. Clearly you've been taken in by the propaganda.
You have no idea what you're talking about!
The new WPATH guidelines "suggest minimum ages, lower than those in the previous version, for each treatment:
14 for starting hormone therapy,
15 for chest masculinization and
17 for more invasive genital operations."
MANY American teenage girls, 13-15 years of age, have already had their breasts lopped off so kids ARE, in fact, having surgery in this nation!
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/13/health/transgender-teens-hormones.html
As for the lie that puberty blockers are no big deal:
"And if taken in the early phase of puberty, blockers and hormones lead to fertility loss. Patients and their families should be counseled about these risks, the standards say, and if preserving fertility is a priority, drugs should be delayed until a more advanced stage of puberty."
What the article doesn't say is that if a kid goes on puberty blockers and then on cross sex hormones, without putting the process on the much ballyhooed "pause", there is no going back. Infertility will be permanent as will the changes induced by the testosterone (lower voice, facial hair for young women) and estrogen (breasts, softer voice and features). Getting off these hormones will NOT reverse these changes.
You're dead wrong on all counts.
TransActive transition-promoters (Portland) are overjoyed that there is now no longer a LOWER age limit for “gender confirmation surgery” WITH parental consent. The limit remains age fifteen WITHOUT parental consent.
LIAR, in the USA you must be 18, and can only get the surgery if you have appropriate DX and have had at least 1 year of therapy. Why do you guys LIE ALL THE TIME? Why do you give a shit what others do? MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS
"At least 1 year of therapy"? WHAT are you smoking?!?
NO ONE is getting 1 year of therapy as a requirement for transitioning these days. Huge numbers of kids are getting puberty blockers and cross sex hormones after 1 or 2 visits to a gender clinic.
There are multiple apps now that you can download and get exogenous hormones sent to your house, after one zoom appointment, based on informed consent. If you wanna get your boobs lopped off, you can pay these apps $150 for a letter to give your surgeon, and your insurance has to cover the surgery,
It’s a common misconception that hormones and surgery are rare prescriptions for kids with gender dysphoria. Here’s a link to Gender Mapper, which maps out the hundreds of clinics across the United States where these hormones and surgery referrals are freely available to kids. Puberty blockers are started as young as 8 years old. 14 year olds are getting elective double mastectomies. https://www.facebook.com/GenderMapper/
From the TransActive Facebook page: "There is NO AGE LIMIT for transgender related care (including surgeries) WITH parental consent under the Oregon Health Plan."
She is saying she doesn't have any reason to believe these teachers are gay. Yes these teachers are grooming the kids. Most gay people would have nothing to do with this!
The problem is that the left's much vaunted " intersectionality and diversity" are unsustainable in a party that views the world as a small pie, with every victim group vying for top victim status and the biggest slice of the government pie. Just look at the living hell they created, an inferno bereft of grace, forgiveness or empathy, meant to contaminate all institutions but first consuming all of them.
BS what a load
The tyrannical mindset of transgender activists and their supporters who insist that any deviation from their bankrupt ideology constitutes "bigotry" is exactly that: Tyranny.
It's very simple: If these activists, armed with the threat of government coercion and/or support, can get you to deny chromosomal and biological reality, they can get you to DENY anything.
And if they can get you to believe that reality itself can be self-declared--I say I'm a woman, therefore I am--they can get you to BELIEVE anything.
There is no surer path to totalitarianism than that--which is why progressives are trying to ram this agenda down America's throat. Don't stand for it.
You don't have to pretend that sexual dysphoria is a "human rights" issue and you sure as heck don't have to abide the idea that believing in biological reality is bigotry.
Above all, don't remain silent to avoid confrontation. A constitutional republic is a terrible thing to give away without a fight.
Yes. Tyranny it is. And I looked up the word tyranny just to make sure. According to Merriam Webster tyranny means cruel and unfair treatment by people with power over others. Dictionary.com defines tyranny as the arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power; despotic abuse of authority. Now that I know exactly what tyranny means, I can't thing of a better word to describe the logic defying goals and strongarm tactics of the transgender zealots than pure and absolute tyranny.
Tyranny = The Democrat Idiotology

Private school will necessarily not save our kids. My kids are in a private school in a major city and the school has all but given up on teaching and is in full indoctrination mode. 3rd grade teacher asked for kids pronouns on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. The first day of school in over a year thanks to Covid. I only found out about this when my 8 year old mentioned it months later. I spoke to teacher and she saw nothing wrong with that. Wait, it gets better!!! One kid picked “they/them,” and this is my kid’s BFF. I know that’s not the case. Did the teacher follow up with parents? No. Did she even use the kid’s “chosen” pronouns? No! So what was the point in this other than the teacher making herself feel better??!! Ive been in touch with school admin and they are in lockstep. Abigail, I’d love to talk to you more. There may be more protection in public schools in some sense because they do have public boards. Private schools do whatever the hell they want.
Yes that is part of the story here. The most exclusive private schools are getting more woke than anyone else. The only remaining answer my friends and I seem to have are some Catholic schools (though I am no Catholic to say the least, but appreciate them more now) and flexible homeschooling pods. I think the latter will eventually be the default for sane parents.
Our private high school changed the rules to say they would lie to parents after we complained about it. After a time it was harder to find that manual.
This is beyond scandalous.
That school administration deserves a good loud lawsuit.
We homeschool our 3 kids. It takes half the time and they learn twice as much. It a lot easier than you would think.
My alleged catholic school refused to use my daughter’s female name and pronouns. There is no place to educate your child. Colleges have adopted this same nonsense.
Agree they- catholic school- tortured my youngest with anti boy attitude
Chris, send him to an all-boys school. He'll get a better education in the long run. Also, most won't allow trans-identified females - yet.
Yes I went to all boys military school and so did my oldest- but by time my youngest went there completely changed- liberalism is like a cancer
I am really sorry to hear even a military school changed. I went to all-girls Catholic boarding school. Last I heard, the nuns hadn't been bamboozled into allowing trans-identified males to attend, at least not yet.
I’ve considered it. My husband and I work full-time, although we definitely wouldn’t need as much money if we’re not paying tuition!
We simply have to take back the public school system. This will mean attending school board meetings, then running for school board offices, as well as petitioning local politicians.
Wish I had done that
As employed adults, they can go to trade-schools to improve their skills and then their job status.
Home education or a very small private school is the only solution. In CA, home education is quite easy legally (file a form with the state and you're in business.) It's hard to swing financially -- I know a few single moms in our coop and have no idea how they do it -- but it's absolutely worth it. the kind of relationship you have with your kid (even teens) makes it worth the effort.
Not sure private school is any better
Obviously, some are and some aren't.

LOL maybe you need to realize that YOU ARE ON THE WRONG SIDE and your bigotry is harming kids
No, dear: pushing kids to "transition" is harming our kids. Don't you realize that transition is castration? Once your testes or ovaries are removed, you can't breed -- and you can't grow them back.
No one is pushing anyone to transition, that is a lie you guys use to scare others into agreeing to discrimination against trans people
Yes they are, and we've all seen it.
Home-school groups may be the best way to go...because parents are actually privy to what the heck is happening with their kids.
We are told there is no funding or time for art and music but they have time for this? Infuriating!
LIAR
Sorry, too many of us have seen it done.
You probable believe Trump won, who the fuck cares about your lies?
I teach in Fairfax County, Virginia. Training materials for LBGTQ++ specifically direct teachers to mislead parents. If a student wants to be called by a certain name, we're required to call them by that name. However, when talking with parents, the materials say, make sure to use the student's legal name. The training materials specifically say to mislead the parents.
This is the way of it almost everywhere - public and private. I envy the rural mother who has not encountered this - or has not yet (but am also glad for her). "Using Pronouns" has to stop. I think parents in Fairfax County, VA are just more aware. And, maybe there are more teachers like you willing to blow the whistle. Thank you.
Why does it harm you if a teen wants to use a certain pronoun? Who the hell are you to tell everyone else what is "proper"?
It harms them by making them incomprehensible, and freakish-looking, to other kids.
YOU ARE A BIGOT AND I HOPE YOUR KIDS DISOWN YOU
Hysterical!

It cannot be lawful to have and to follow such training materials. We are talking about grooming/gas lighting minors behind their parents backs. Also, Gender Ideology is not science.
A kid can grow up to be gay or straight without a name and pronoun change. I think that the issue of being LGB get's conflated with the promotion of social/mental illness and fetish.

My parents would have kicked me out of the house after they beat the hell out of me if they knew I was gay as a teen. FUCK YOU for wanting kids today to go through the same pain as back then. If there were not so many hateful bigots who would harem their own kids if they found out they were gay, this would not be a problem
But they didn't, did they? They let you grow up arrogant, self-righteous and infantile. This is not an improvement.
Thank you so much for bringing this to the world's attention. I'm disgusted at the disregard for safeguarding and privacy of children.
Besides fomenting insanity and chaos, what's the end game here?
It drums up a lot of business for the trans healthcare industrial complex. Think of how much money is raked in for puberty blockers, cross sex hormones, double mastectomies, phalloplasties, cosmetic surgeries, vaginoplasties, surgeons fees, hospital fees, counseling fees The doctors, hospitals, drug manufacturers, and counselors are all making a killing.
In a few years many thousands of detransitioners will file a class action against the individuals and corporations who destroyed the health, fertility and appearance of innocent and confused children.
The problem is that you really can't build a penis out of a vagina or vice versa. This is a huge con game.
It is a con game. And no one is protecting the naive and desperate victims many of whom are emotionally troubled and barely beyond adolescence.
Do you know how these "surgeons" construct a "vagina" for a biological man. It's a procedure that would make Dr. Frankenstein proud. First they amputate the penis and scrotum. The skin of the balls becomes the inner and outer labia. Then they turn the penis inside out and insert it into the perianum to form the vagina. If the penis isn't long enough because the victim (like Jazz Jennings) took puberty blockers and never went through a real puberty, they will expand the "vagina" using tissue from the colon, yes, the colon. Unfortunately, colon tissue will always smell like, you know, colon tissue. But sometimes these "surgeons" have no choice. They must use the colon. But they insist it's a vagina.
The procedure for giving a biological woman a "penis" is just as disturbing and even more disfiguring since the surgeon has to remove a section of forearm skin and arm tissue to form the penile shaft. And the forearm will always be scarred and deformed looking, as if the forearm had been seriously burned in a raging fire. Serious complications for both types of genital surgeries is the norm. And yet they're promoted as only a little more serious than getting a tattoo.
You missed the part where the new “vagina” must have a stretcher (dildo) inserted a few times every day to keto it from closing up since it’s really just an open wound.
LOL -- Oops!
We talk about Big Parma, Big Tech, Big Oil... it's time to start talking about Big Trans.
I love that term Big Trans and have already started using it.

WHAT? My God you guys are sick and bigots and huge LIARS
Sure, all because we disagree with you and your self-righteous cadre. I don't suppose you'll ever really grow up.
Yes. I don't know when the ACLU lost the script but they sure did.
There is a Federal case that has been filed againt the Leon County School Board in FL by the Littlejohn family with the help of the Child & Parental Rights Campaign. See Genspect.org
Take a look at Jennifer Bilek's 11th Hour Blog. The autogynephile billionaire's who fund the aggressive transgender activists though a dark network of charitable foundations see transgenderism as an easy on ramp to transhumanism. Billionaire "Martine" (nee Martin) Rothblatt founded a religion called Terasem that promotes both transgenderism and transhumanism. So if you'd like to sprout gills or have a neck as long as a giraffe, "she's" your man. And yes, it is a religion.

Thanks. Truly bizarre.
Remember when in 2019 the Democratic candidates for president held a televised town hall to virtue-signal their fealty to trans ideology? And guess which party receives donations from the Human Rights Campaign (the HRC)?
The DEMS were already bought and paid for long before that event, unfortunately. Just look at Obama's relationship with the billionaire Pritzker family from Chicago.
For the last 2 decades I have voted DEM more often than not, but I will NOT vote for any DEM who has voted or will vote to pass The Equality Act. If that abomination ever becomes law, any rights afforded to biological women will legally cease to exist.
Just listen to this wake-up call from Kara Dansky, the DEM feminist who now heads the US chapter of The Women's Human Rights Campaign:

100%! After his re-election, Obama and his administration not only prioritized the "feelings" of men who identify as women OVER the rights of biological women, they hid these actions from the public, an epic betrayal of the tens of millions of women voters who tirelessly supported him through two campaigns.
CBS even documented this deceit in 2014. (The CAPS are mine.)
WITHOUT FANFARE, OBAMA ADVANCED TRANSGENDER RIGHTS
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/without-fanfare-obama-advances-transgender-rights/
"Unlike Obama's support for same-sex marriage and lifting the "don't ask, don't tell" ban on openly gay troops, the WHITE HOUSE'S WORK TO PROMOTE TRANSGENDER RIGHTS HAS HAPPENED mostly OUT OF THE SPOTLIGHT."
"In other instances, transgender rights groups and the administration have AGREED ON A LOW-KEY APPROACH, both TO SKIRT RESISTANCE and to send the message that changes are not a big deal, said Barbra Siperstein, who in 2009 became the first transgender person elected to the Democratic National Committee.
"It's QUIET BY DESIGN, because the louder you are in Washington, the more the drama," said Siperstein, who helped organize the first meeting between White House aides and transgender rights advocates without the participation of gay rights leaders."
GRR!
GOD FORBID trans people have human rights protections.
Which party is favored by the Nazi party? YOURS BRO
I’m a Democrat. I voted for Biden. I would never vote Republican because the issues I care about are opposed by the Republicans. I believe in human rights protections for all people, in employment, in housing, etc. I also believe in human rights protections for women, i.e., biological females. It is not possible to change ones sex. Men can never be women regardless of how they “identify.” The presence of males in women’s sports and prisons destroys the level playing field and endangers the safety of the most disenfranchised women in the country, the poor women of all races who inhabit America’s jails and prisons. If trans-identified males stayed in their lane and respected the rights of women, instead of expecting women to throw themselves under the bus in the name of “fairness,” it would be a very easy matter to respect their human rights in total.
The mutilation of children’s bodies through hormonal and surgical intervention without even a whit of therapy is malpractice. Nobody should be transitioning medically before the age of 18 and without prior insight therapy to insure that transition is the correct way to go. Young people, who don’t know themselves, are encouraged to transition, but then they detransition and are filled with regret over the loss of sexual function and fertility, and immutable changes to their appearance. The numbers in this group are exploding. This is a tragic outcome. Promoting transgenderism in the schools, as an ideology and a panacea for any emotional problem a teenager might be feeling, rather than a medical condition that may help some people, is wrong and it needs to stop.
It’s convenient to label my views as transphobic. My response is that transgender policy and ideology as currently conceived are misogynistic, homophobic, narcissistic and dangerous to the health and welfare of women and children. It doesn’t have to be that way. Call me any name you like. I’ve said all I have to say. Have a nice day.
This makes my skin crawl.

Really?!? ICK
Unhappy confused angry people targeting happy families. Their ideology has led them to misery and they cannot accept that it was wrong, so they aim to tear everyone else down.
Insanity and chaos may just be the end game.
In the 1980s, gay magazines laid our their plans to turn the children gay via the school system. It's been public knowledge for decades, but people just don't want to hear the truth and their children and grandchildren will pay the eternal price.
As a lesbian who came out in 1971, I have absolutely no knowledge of any such campaigns. If it’s been public knowledge for decades, somehow I missed that memo, and trust me, I am not hiding under a rock. If that sort of nonsense was going on, it was doomed to fail in any case. Unlike trans indoctrination, which is founded on beliefs and ideology, being gay or lesbian requires that a person have actual, organically generated feelings of love and desire for a person of the same sex. Anybody who’s ever tried to make themselves have feelings for someone they’re not attracted to knows how futile such an exercise is.
Now, I do recall that there was at one time an odious group called NAMBLA (Man Boy Love Association) which put forth the sickening notion that grown men and minor boys could engage in legitimate romantic and sexual relationships. This was nothing but a cover for pedophilia, and it was rightfully shut down. To equate this with garden-variety gays and lesbians would do a disservice to the millions of us who have spent our lives being good citizens, minding our own business and trying to leave the world a little better than we found it.
I agree, Beeswax.
I am and have always been completely straight. But some of the bravest women standing up to defend biological women and girls from the transgender crazies are gay women. Brave and honorable women like Bari Weiss, Prof. Kathleen Stock and TT Exulansic. The transgender enemy is strong, and we who oppose them must work together to defeat the woke madness.
Agree with you both. Most sane people take others as they are, gay or straight. But this idiocy, along with pedophilia is just nuts.
Lesbians are the most vocal opponents of the trans craze because they have the most to lose. If butch girls are really boys, that leaves lesbians in a lurch. They are our natural allies in this, if we can find a way to communicate with them. Bari Weiss is a great bridge in this regard.
Yes. Lesbians are our natural allies and they do have the most to lose. They were also the canaries in the coal mine, the people who first became aware of the threat to themselves and the wider world posed by "Big Trans."
Don't leave out journalist Katie Herzog. She writes for Weiss on Substack and co-hosts an excellent podcast called BLOCKED AND REPORTED! She is fearless and smart with a rapier like wit.
When her wife recently told her she'd just read that there are only 15 lesbian bars left in America, Herzog replied, "Oh, good, one for each of us."
They've all been turned into gender affirmation clinics.
And Katie Herzog—Don't leave her out!
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/02/style/what-is-cancel-culture.html
"Katie Herzog was a largely unknown freelance journalist living in Seattle. Then she published an article in The Stranger about trans people who halt or reverse transitions. Two days later she started getting hate mail.
“It is, by far, the most-read thing I’ve ever written,” Ms. Herzog said. It also made her “wildly reviled.” Seattle residents burned stacks of The Stranger and posted stickers calling Ms. Herzog a transphobe."
Thank goodness for the brave women, like Katie Herzog, who are alerting the rest of us to the danger.
I'd like to add a few more names to the list of brave women (both gay and straight). Kara Dansky, whose brand new book, The Abolition of Sex: How the "Transgender" Agenda Harms Women and Girls, is an absolute must read for everyone whose concerned about the shocking negative effects of the Big Trans cult in the US.
I started the ebook last night and will finish it this morning. It's short, succinct, highly informative, and powerfully written, like a bombshell going off. At $9.95 for the ebook and $15.99 for the paperback, it would make a terrific little stocking stuffer gift for everyone you care about.
https://smile.amazon.com/Abolition-Sex-Transgender-Agenda-Harms/dp/1637582293/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=abolition+of+sex&qid=1637509954&sr=8-1
Other names include: Karen Davis and her You've Got to Be Kidding podcast, Posey Parker (podcast), Helen Joyce (her recent book icalled Trans is another must read), Jennifer Bilek (11th Hour Blog), and I'm sure, there are others who are fighting the good fight.
Thanks for that. Illuminating. Truth to a proggie is like garlic to a vampire.

Unfortunately for gays and lesbians the woke mob took over. What used to be LGB, became LGBT, became LGBTQ, became LGBTQIA, ad infinitum. The latest additions to this alphabet soup are the most vicious bigoted radical feminists. If I don't want to date a guy who says he's a woman I become a enemy of the cause. What's the cause you ask? To obliterate the norms of sex and biology. If as they say gender is fluid then why am I not attracted to men who say they're women and vice versa men not attracted to women who say they're men. Same thing is happening with pedophilia, you have these radical groups NAMBLA is just one of them trying to mainstream pedophilia. A assistant professor at Old Dominion released a book on how to normalize pedophilia and pedophiles, by changing the definition. The term is MAP. Minor Attracted Person.
I understand trans ideology very, very well. I’m 69 and have been dealing with this garbage since the mid 70s when men in dresses decided they had a right to join our lesbian social clubs. I was in the 1% who smelled a rat and resisted, but I was overruled. Lesbians were very oppressed back then (as we are, again, now, due to trans hatred of women) and my friends felt sorry for the dudes in drag claiming to be us. How many of them could there be? One or two? What’s the big deal?
Fast forward 50 years and you can hardly find a lesbian now, especially the butch variety, which constituted fifty percent of our population. Now, so-called gender nonconforming girls, the less feminine ones, the ones who would otherwise grow up to be gay, have been brainwashed to believe the world is a horrible patriarchy and men will rape and kill them if they walk down the street with their shameful breasts sticking out. Better to cut them off right now and change their name to Jason.
I know about the male predators calling themselves women, who hang on to their male genitalia, which they are longing to use on anyone with an actual vagina. Their targets are pre-teen and teenage “trans men,” who’ve been guilt-tripped and groomed to provide sex to these guys or be labeled misogynistic. I read their stories of coercion and rape on the Reddit detrans site. They are traumatized to the core. That’s just one part of the story, because of course boys are targets as well.
Believe me, you and I are on the same side. I wasn’t aware that NAMBLA still had a breath of life in it, so I stand corrected. My main concern here is that I’m seeing the word “gay” being correlated with pedophilia, and I’m sorry, that’s wrong. There are too many of us — the overwhelming majority of us — living good lives, and some of us have been victims of pedophilia ourselves. Pedophilia doesn’t produce a sexual orientation, it destroys a child’s soul.
Pedophiles come in all flavors. Jeffrey Epstein et al and the Catholic Church come to mind. Jeffrey, Bill and Bill liked the young ladies. And those priests raped a lot of little girls, you know. Please stop equating being gay with pedophilia. It’s inaccurate and it makes things harder for all of us. Thank you.
Yes. I'm a very conventional straight woman who never thought I'd spend much time thinking about things like transexuality. But, I have a lovely feminine daughter who was sucked into this cult (as yet not physically harmed). I know another girl in our neighborhood who was anorexic and now takes "T" and has a new boy name. I think in an earlier time she'd have just been a lesbian instead of viewing herself as a straight boy :-0 I think the main bad actors in this play are actually entirely straight autogynephile men (more aggressive than other men), plus the Woke mob, people with blinders on their eyes, Big Pharma, Big Business (like those autogynephile billionaires), and the progressives who have found this very useful for gaining power. If these guys would just wear a dress and call it a day... That thing where our White House declared Richard/Rachael Levine to be the first Female (not simply "woman" which is crazy enough) 4 star admiral was especially Orwellian. Our country "jumped the shark" there.
Yes, LovingMother, our country has jumped the shark. I shudder to think what my parents and grandparents, who've all been dead for decades, would think of a country that "celebrates" bearded young girls who amputate their breasts and allows violent male felons with intact penises to self declare themselves women and gain entry to women's prisons where they can rape and impregnate with impunity. They would think we've all gone stark raving mad.
The "Rachel" Levine is a "female" incident is a new low for this country and, as you pointed out, especially Orwellian. What frightens me is this century is still young. What other horrors do the deranged billionaire Autogynephiles of Big Trans have up their sleeve?
Thank you. Well said.
Nowhere did I mention that I thought gay men were pedophiles. I was agreeing with you. What I was saying was, the LGB cause was taken over by a bunch of radicals who have no qualms about normalizing pedophilia. There is no LGB as a organization today, it's become the TQIA intersectional cult. Where hate breeds hate, and intolerance is accepted as virtue. They want us too accept- No they demand we accept, and celebrate their degeneracy. Not me. Not ever. The inmates are running the asylum. As my granny said when I was a child. Not one ounce of my worth is dependent upon what others think of me.
There are LGB organizations springing up, and they're immediately denounced as "hate groups".
That's okay to say. Gay men are pedophiles

That "at one time an odious group" is still very much with us, there is no shortage of examples of indoctrination of children. You can deny it, but that doesn't make it not so.
Hey, Beeswax, What do you think of this co-opting of the term "come out" as applied to the Gender fantasy? It seems like teens are made to feel special and to me that smells of grooming. Back in the 1970s when someone revealed they were same-sex attracted it may have been a different thing? It feels like it's taken on a sacredness in this new context.
Of course "coming out" as trans is a cooptation of the term. The whole of gender ideology and its tactics as applied to children are spurious.
The villainous Dr. Diane Ehrenshaft wrote learned articles about Satanic Ritual child abuse back during that craze - Presideo Preschool.
It's like you get to wear the sparkly birthday crown when you're in kindergarten and everyone sings Happy Birthday for you. You make a wish, blow out the candles, and then you get to eat your chocolate cup cake. Only in Trans-world, the birthday boy or girl gets to poison themselves with puberty blockers and cross sex hormones and mutilate their genitals.

I know. I hear you. Equally baffling is the unquestioning acceptance of trans-identified males in women's sports and prisons by my cohorts, the lesbian-feminists of the 1970s, who have devoted literally decades to lesbian rights, women's reproductive rights and the like.
In terms of the transing of children, they refuse to acknowledge that it's happening or to see it as a problem in any way. They don't seem to notice that the lesbian community has disappeared. They're so deep in the woke sinkhole they might as well be brain dead. I don't bother with them anymore.
It is a religion. Most people who do not even give it serious thought go along with it because they feel they are being good. They are among the Elect. For those caught in the web and promoting it I think there is an element of Stockhom Syndrome. Then, there are a great many who profit from Trans in medicine, pharma, politics.... There's a crazy amount of billionaire autoggynephile $$$. I am ashamed of our government.

These "teachers" are taking perfectly innocent children and, instead of spending the day making sure their students would graduate one day being able to read at grade level, do math, and appreciate the unique country they live in, they decided destroying their childhoods was a better use of their limited time with them.
All I know is, if what teachers are doing with children must be hidden from their parents, they need to stop and rethink it. This is so disgusting I can't even express it. The ODU "professor" who recently posted a justification for calling pedophiles "MAPs"--Minor Attracted Persons--and trying to make that crew out to be just another "persecuted minority" is what you get when this kind of "education" is inflicted on kids. God help this nation.
They're proving several points for us. 1st, they are, indeed, coming after children. 2nd, the homo crowd is also the pedo crowd is the homo crowd; ad nauseum, ad infinitum. 3rd, they're proving that they are NOT “born that way” but rather, recruited/indoctrinated/inculcated at an early age by a homo. 4th, if they don't recruit, they become extinct (see point 3). 5th, they gave NO BUSINESS being around children, anywhere, ever.

As a lesbian who recognizes misogyny and lesbophobia when I see them, I am disgusted by straight people in health care who presume to know what is happening to confused girls when they make the choice to try to circumvent womanhood by pretending to be men and hoping everyone else will be fooled or at least go along with it. Unfortunately, that pretension is usually accompanied by testosterone, of which the effects are irreversible. This means that should the girl/woman desist from transition (which is more common than is allowed because they are silenced by trans activists), she will forever have a beard, chest hair, increased body hair elsewhere, and may even be bald for the rest of her life.
It is no wonder a girl, especially one who is discovering she is a lesbian, would want to exit being female. The ubiquity of porn and the expectations that come with being female in that context, the fact that lesbians are at the bottom of the LGBTQWTF totem pole and are admonished for being "transphobic" if they do not include intact, male-bodied transwomen in their dating pool, and the fact that misogyny is at a generational high are all contributing factors that no one talks about. Rapid-onset gender dysphoria (ROGD), a syndrome where a teenager or adolescent decides they are transgender after consuming too much social media that sets unreal expectations for the ease of which a person can "change gender," is another problem that is not addressed as often as it should be.
Midway, I am also disappointed in you as a physician because you of all people should know that a person can consume as many hormones as they want and have all the surgery they can handle, but they will never be the opposite sex. Nothing will change their chromosomes or socialization. In addition, the surgeries to "affirm gender" are barbaric. Most people aren't aware that those surgeries are fraught with complications, usually requiring a second or even third or fourth surgery. Also, only about half of women who undergo that surgery are able to achieve orgasm afterward. Sadly, most consider the surgery a success if they can urinate standing up.
If anyone is interested, this paper by the NIH is very informative.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3901910/
Thank you, kittyD, for this eye opening paper from 2013. I skimmed the article but studied the stomach turning photos which show the grisly procedure and its strange results even when everything goes right. For those of you who don't choose to read the article, the quotation below is an excellent summary.
"Total phalloplasty is one of the most complex reconstructions that plastic surgeons are called upon to perform.... Add to this the fact that the materials available are sub-optimal and the emotional overlay associated with this reconstruction is very significant, the task assumes nearly Herculean dimensions. It is no wonder that it is fraught with a plethora of complications."
And much of the surgeries fail w dire consequences for the rest of their lives. Very sad to see young people’s lives destroyed because they were brainwashed by people who are supposed to have their best interests in mind. These subversive teachers are criminals by doing unapproved activities w children behind parent’s backs. They should be Fired & lose their teaching credentials! Children are supposed to be protected from extremists at school & be educated not indoctrinated!
I agree wholeheartedly.
My child had both of these teachers in 7th grade and I cannot thank you enough for publishing this article! My suspicions have been confirmed. My child’s personality changed during the year she had these teachers and not for the better. She started getting hostile and defensive when I would ask her about school. She clearly did not want to be asked about it anymore, it has gotten better this year but she still gets hostile at times when I ask her how school was or what was discussed in a specific class. She has never mentioned pronouns but the once extremely girly/feminine daughter I had is no more! Non-binary/means more toward male than female is now I would describe her now. I know that’s the cool thing on social media now but it’s pretty obvious she was groomed by Caldiera! One of her friends who also had Caldiera and Baraki in 7th grade came out as they/them that year and put pronouns in her bio everywhere and like my daughter, was no longer feminine/girly. I have long suspected something like this was going on BVMS but never had any proof because my kid wouldn’t talk. And that’s very out of character for her, she’s always been very open. It has gotten better now that she’s no longer in these 2 teachers classes but they definitely left a lasting impression on her.
Hello. The next School Board meeting is scheduled for December 15th. I think the School Board should hear how parents feel about what these teachers are doing - I, for one, am very disturbed and upset.
Get a lawyer and sue those teachers!

Wait, so kids had a personality change when they entered adolescence? Who ever heard of such a thing! And now she's coming out of it as she gets older? Who ever heard of such a thin!. Must be due to the gayz!
Seriously, you're really stretching. Next thing you know you'll be blaming gays for when it rains. Or when it doesn't. Must be the gayz!
GTFOH you pedo. That is not at all what anyone is saying here and my kids personality change had absolutely nothing to do with adolescence. Obviously you support child groomers. You are probably one yourself.
That's one of the most vile accusations you can make about someone. It's definitely not true in my case, and since nothing I've said has given you any reason to believe it, I can only assume it reflects your own inner world and secret desires. Please stay away from children.
The fact that you are on this substack and harassing the participants who are having a civil discussion about a serious problem facing society means you are a nefarious character and up to no good.
I suppose if I were doing that you have a point. But since you're making false accusations that means you are a nefarious character and up to no good.
