'Boy or girl?' Parents raising 'theybies' let kids decide
NBC News ^ | July 19, 2018

Posted on 07/19/2018 9:04:30 AM PDT by SMGFan

AMBRIDGE, Mass. — Three-year-old twins Zyler and Kadyn Sharpe scurried around the boys and girls clothing racks of a narrow consignment store filled with toys. Zyler, wearing rainbow leggings, scrutinized a pair of hot-pink-and-purple sneakers. Kadyn, in a T-Rex shirt, fixated on a musical cube that flashed colorful lights. At a glance, the only discernible difference between these fraternal twins is their hair — Zyler’s is brown and Kadyn’s is blond.

Is Zyler a boy or a girl? How about Kadyn? That’s a question their parents, Nate and Julia Sharpe, say only the twins can decide. The Cambridge, Mass., couple represent a small group of parents raising “theybies” — children being brought up without gender designation from birth. A Facebook community for these parents currently claims about 220 members across the U.S.

“A theyby is, I think, different things to different people,” Nate Sharpe told NBC News. “For us, it means raising our kids with gender-neutral pronouns — so, ‘they,’ ‘them,’ ‘their,’ rather than assigning ‘he,’ ‘she,’ ‘him,’ ‘her’ from birth based on their anatomy.”

No, not parents but mental patients.

Where in the heck do these parents get these modern names from? So weird to me. These parents are a bunch of spoiled brats who will let their kids do whatever they want as well as allow them to make their own choices from infancy on up!

Decide? Oh, like the kid I knew who *decided* he was “Superman”...pinned a towel around his neck, jumped out of the hayloft of a barn, and broke his arm?

THAT kind of “informed”, childhood, deciding? /s

Who will be the first doctor sued for saying “Congratulations, it’s a boy!”?

The Cambridge, Mass., couple represent a small group of parents whose children suffer because their parents have Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy.

I think that parents who do this should be required to register themselves as part of the ‘genderless’ religion.

‘While all other religions and science conclusively agree that there are two sexes and that there is a profound difference between those genders, those who practice the genderless religion stand against this universally agreed to conclusion, and the undersigned assert their religious rights to completely ignore it.

‘Also understand that failure to affirm your genderless religion views and persist in practicing this religion will result in the termination of parental rights.’

(*Extremely rare exceptions measured in parts per million aren’t worthy of being noted in the general statement above. If you believe your child is one of the rare exceptions, you’re wrong. You would absolutely know it, the doctor would be working with you on options since their birth, or perhaps even before birth.)

Let’s see how many will join the cult...

I’m a Boy - The Who

One girl was called Jean Marie
Another little girl was called Felicity
Another little girl was Sally Joy
The other was me, and I’m a boy

My name is Bill, and I’m a head case
They practice making up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair

I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But my ma won’t admit it
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But if I say I am, I get it

Put your frock on, Jean Marie
Plait your hair, Felicity
Paint your nails, little Sally Joy
Put this wig on, little boy

I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But my ma won’t admit it
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But if I say I am, I get it

I want to play cricket on the green
Ride my bike across the street
Cut myself and see my blood
I want to come home all covered in mud

I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But my ma won’t admit it
I’m a boy, I’m a boy, I’m a boy
I’m a boy, I’m a boy, I’m a boy, I’m a boy
I’m a boy, I’m a boy, I’m a boy

Who will be the first doctor sued for saying “Congratulations, it’s a boy!”? Don't laugh! this will happen! Fast forward to 2025. California and Oregon have passed "theyby" laws, mandating that doctors use non sexist pronouns for all patients. The first doctor to be accused of this, by a lezzy couple, is made an example of and loses his licence to practice medicine.
This will happen. Insane muff divers are in control.

This article is, to me, sad more than anything.

Children NEED certainty, boundaries, and, above all, reality. Like what sex they are. We are living in an emperor has no clothes world now where people are pretending that reality isn't.

They're children, not your little hippy dippy social experiment to virtue signal with.

Surprised that the ‘parents’ are a male and female.

So we have:

Lesbians using someone’s sperm to produce ‘semi-biological’ children.
Lesbians adopting, abusing and killing children (the Harts).

Gay men renting wombs for their own or someone else’s children.
Gay men adopting children and likely abusing them.

Men and women having casual sex resulting in unwanted pregnancies and millions of abortions.

Where in the hell is the human race headed?

Extinction??
