Yes.

Is it any different than someone who has become addicted to cocaine and expects us to give them some money to spend on their perverse passion?

“She has XX chromosomes not only in her uterus but also throughout her entire body.”

I think “uterus” pretty much seals the deal.

“I’ve been asking the clueless kids for years what is the feminine equivalent for dude since they all misuse it.”

Jokingly I throw out “dudette” at my female friends time to time.

I've asked those brain washed kids if “dudette” might be correct. They never understand that the old bald fat guy is making fun of them.

“...He and his mother asked for him ....”

How many of these gender confused victims have been convinced by their mothers they are what they are not???

“...she still has XX Chromosomes in her uterus.”


She still has XX chromosomes in every single cell of her body. There’s a reason why sexual organs are considered SECONDARY sexual characteristics - it is the DNA inside of each cell that determines whether you are male or female.

I hope that this teacher sues, and wins, for denial of his civil rights (1st Amendment free speech) under color of law. If he does that, he can sue each person in the chain that got him fired, as well as the school district. No person involved will have any immunity because of their job, as such a denial is - by definition - acting outside of the scope of their job. I hope this guy can retire off of the proceeds.

Yes, or it for all the pronouns.

Soon no one is going to be able to keep a job UNLESS they conform to what the state wants them to conform to.

This is just another step in that direction.

Pretty soon we will have a committee to decide who is OBSOLETE (like in that twilight zone episode)

Invite that teacher to the White House. There are voters (I’ve met them) who are prone to vote Democrat but value traditional families and don’t wat to see their kids change sexes.

Anybody hits me with that crap, I’m going to insist that they refer to me by my preferred pronouns—shzzoo, squeefubblis, and zassamatuniple. And I’m gonna change ‘em up every week.

I'm sorry if I've offended you. haha

I like what you're saying. We need to start identifying as you describe.

Transgender trumps everyone else in the social justice stack but Muslims.

Note that it is almost impossible to fire a teacher for anything ... but now you can lose your job in weeks if you violate liberal orthodoxy.

“You” has no gender. The gendered pronouns are used when speaking ABOUT someone to another person.

What about “sir” or “ma’am” which are used when speaking TO someone? Will they force compliance with those too?

If we can be fired for not using mandated words the country has no future.

The state which gave us George Washington, Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, John Marshall, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Booker T. Washington now has teachers fired for using the correct pronoun for a mixed-up girl who thinks she is a boy?

Penis = male

Vagina = female

Simple!

They are pronouns. Not titles. As such, they are not individualized.
