Naval Academy Hosting ‘Transgender 101’ Training for Midshipmen

Academy says 'safe space' training is in demand for 'millennial' midshipmen

BY: Elizabeth Harrington December 7, 2016 1:45 pm

The U.S. Naval Academy is bringing in Google employees to provide voluntary “Transgender 101” training to midshipmen this week as part of an ongoing “safe space” training series.

The academy’s Center for Teaching and Learning is holding two events on Friday, one for faculty and staff and another for midshipmen. The hour and a half-long workshops will be hosted by Marnie Florin and Kevin Perry, who are “transgender trainers” for Google.

Midshipmen and staff who take the training course will get the opportunity to display cards outside their door that show they are allies of the LGBT community.

The course was described in an email circulated by the Naval Academy on Tuesday.

“On Friday, December 9, the Center for Teaching & Leaning welcomes Kevin Perry and Marnie Florin who will be presenting Transgender 101: Gender Identity in the Workplace,” the email said. “Marnie and Kevin have given this workshop at Google offices around the globe to more than 2,500 employees.”

The email explained that Florin is transgender and uses the pronoun “ze.”

If we can just stop the homosexual recruitment, they will eventually die out from natural causes - they do not reproduce.

No one joins the military to find a “safe space.”

Are they going to establish “safe spaces” in combat too?

This is insanity.

Back in the day this training was to accurately identify a “Benny Boy” in an Olangapo City bar to preclude the need to perform a stump check. Not so much anymore I guess.

Heck with the academy. Transgender Training is the headliner on the current big navy training page.

Good God.

If this crap is allowed to continue, the entire Pacific fleet will be at the bottom of the ocean during the first week of a future Pacific war with China.

President Trump and SecDef Mattis have a LOT to fix, and quickly!

If midshipman need a “safe space”, what happens when they’re on a ship taking fire from a hostile enemy trying to kill them? Will there be safe spaces on ships?

Remember Obama had a tranny nanny in Indonesia.

This explains volumes.
