Egg-zacktly!

Persecuted, eh, even though they just want to be left alone, you say?

She explained to my daughter that if she is not 100% comfortable in her female body, then she is transgender… She then told the kids that parents aren’t safe and that it’s okay to lie to them about where they are… She explicitly asked the kids who they’re sexually attracted to. There were 11, 12 and 13-year-olds in the room when this happened.

She doubled down, [saying] that parents aren’t safe, that heterosexuality and monogamy are not normal, and she then proceeded to hand out her personal contact information to the kids, encouraging them to connect with her without their parents’ knowledge, by cell phone, by email, and by chat platforms like WhatsApp and Discord, where parents can’t see the communication. She also sends them invites to her secret meetings through these channels.

This predacious stranger, it turns out, had absolutely no qualifications to be speaking with children about sexuality. She’s not a licensed therapist or counsellor, she’s not a full-time teacher in the district. Her only qualification is that she’s a lesbian.

To seize on children’s normal, sometimes fraught, period of adjustment – during which all kinds of anxieties kick in, and during which you’re not even entirely sure how long your legs are going to be from one week to another – and to steer those pubescent children into believing that they may therefore be transgender – indeed probably are – is grotesque.

Taken at face value, the incident does convey an inversion of reality that’s common among ‘activist’ educators and educational bureaucrats. And so, a “safe space” is one in which middle-school children are ideologically groomed by strangers, presumptuous misfits, conspiratorially, in secret, and while actively avoiding their parents’ knowledge or consent.

Up 'periscope'. Captain Nemo waxes lyrical and goes down with the ship.

As long as it's only lyrical he's waxing and not, like some, wanting a ball wax.. something on which you seem to possess an inordinate amount of intimate knowledge...

Jesus Christ - that must hurt... masochism is on the rise...

For those who think there are only two genders...

There are NOT.

There are only two SEXES. Gender, however, is a spectrum, a bit like the autism spectrum - and much of it is related to
societal expectations and influences. It ranges from the macho 'alpha male' stereotype at one end through to the 'helpless
dumb blonde' stereotype at the other end.

In-between are 'beta' and 'effeminate' males, crossdressers, 'tomboy' girls and women, asexual and non-binary people etc.

It is not required to start adding and/or removing body parts in order to be transgender. Some do, but many do not.

Gender is NOT tied rigidly to your sexuality either. One can be a trans woman but abhor the thought of sex with a male
while another may be a trans man but not want to have sex with women. Many find it difficult or impossible to form any
kind of meaningful relationships at all because of this. Trans women, especially, risk actual physical harm from men who
find their masculinity threatened should they find the trans girl attractive or if they think they're being 'conned into having
sex with a bloke'.

The basic problem is that you people see gender as being like sex, as a light switch with MALE on one side and FEMALE on
the other, where-as gender is more like a light switch with a dimmer control, and you can be ANYWHERE between the two
poles.

This is not 'just my opinion' - it's that of most experts in the field. So if you want to slag of at anyone - slag them, not me.

First you needed 'experts' to tell you that marriage has been misunderstood for millennia. Now you need 'experts in the field' to tell you that what a woman is has been similarly misunderstood. Next - pre-schoolers who cannot smoke or drink or vote can reliably determine that they are in fact trans-sexual and their mother is not a total fruitcake but a supportive, affirming birthing unit.

Follow 'the science', all you deplorable, know-nuffin' far-right white supremacists!!! Oh, yes.

Well - no. It is a mental illness that should not be encouraged and treated as if it wasn't.

Gender/sex dysphonia is a mental illness. If you are a boy and think you are a girl you are mentally ill and need help, NOT encouragement in your illness. If you are a girl - ditto.

It is an evil, deliberate program to push this crap. Mammals - humans - are born male and female. There is NO OTHER way for the species to exist. Transgender is the next stage of the gay marriage slippery slope. Next - underage sex transition and zoo-, tree-and whatever-philia - as long as it doesn't produce children and a future.

It is an anti-life death cult.
