State senator’s comments cause transgender backlash

I could claim: “Only females can bear children” or “The sky is blue”

and the media could find someone “outraged” by the statement.

At some point, you have to ignore the media BS and just lead.

“Transgender backlash?”

Sounds like what happens when a john finds out the person servicing him is a guy, or something.

[Trillian]

It probably means one person out of the whole state cried and then called a lawyer.

[Ouderkirk]

They are sodomites...that seems to light them up when I address them as such.

[grobdriver]

Gender is about Spanish nouns.

der, die, das.

In a discussion on a bill that would limit bathroom and shower facility use in South Dakota schools to students sharing the same gender, State Senator David Omdahl referred to individuals suffering from gender dysphoria as "twisted" due to their identity confusion and said they would benefit from psychological treatment.

As far as I can tell, it is true that gender confusion is a treatable mental disorder. It would be highly counterproductive and costly to humor insane people who think that they are another gender.

We used to put people like that in the "crazy house." But, unfortunately, the left has closed such institutions and put the inmates on the street.

"People who are transgender are not twisted. We are people just like everyone else," University of South Dakota assistant professor in clinical psychology Jae Puckett said in a report from KSFY-ABC.

The lunatics run the asylum.

It isn't that difficult. Even a kindergarten kid can understands the difference between boys and girls.

But, unfortunately, the left has closed such institutions and put the inmates on the street.

Try again: But, unfortunately, the left has closed such institutions and put the inmates on the street. on the judicial bench and in charge of academia.

[Billthedrill]

Their ignorance runs counter to basic human rights.

I was unaware that dressing like the opposite sex and forcing my way into their rest rooms whether they like it or not was a basic human right. If that counts as ignorance, then so be it.

I think that you are correct. Excuse me, while I puke.

[JimRed]

...have caused controversy among the transgender movement.

All twenty three of them? Big voting bloc!

[getitright]

Indeed.

When they proclaim a disagreement between the mind and the body, who’s to say the error lies with the body?

[tbw2]

Up until recently, I worked for a defense contractor who used the hierarchy system of rights.
A woman’s right to privacy includes abortions covered by the health plan, but not the right to use a bathroom without a mentally ill man in a dress still sexually attracted to women IN the bathroom with full permission of HR.
When I filed sexual harassment charges against him for lecturing me on dress, appearance, behavior, comparing his planned surgeries to a woman’s period, HR told me to work it out between us girls.
His rights trumped mine.

It is the same when there’s a dispute in the workplace between minorities and majorities - the minority is presumed right and has more protections.

[mom of young patriots]

Back when it was generally accepted that a person’s gender matched their sex, it wasn’t necessary to draw the literary distinction. It’s sad that we have to now.

[mom of young patriots]

The truth is especially damaging when you’ve built your whole identity on a lie.

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

Oh, come on. How many pervs can there be in South Dakota? Just ignore them.

[chesley]

Too little, too late.

In the end there will be a civil war; I'm convinced of it. Unless Christ comes again, first, and that will be messy for those who defy God, too.

I may not live to see, either, but it can't go on like this without some disaster striking

[Maelstorm]

I totally agree. There is no such thing as transgender there’s just insanity.

[HLPhat]

>>You bet people had better speak up

Before the fat lady sings... again.

 

When an interviewer recently called Lady Gaga the "Billy Graham of pop," she claimed,

"I'm teaching people to worship themselves."

Rom 1:25-27
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator Ã¢â‚¬â€ who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
