If some stupid person identifies as Barack H. Obama in their own mind, are they free to go all romantic on Moosechelle?

What a nightmare for them, and for us, that these people cannot be diagnosed and treated. The root of the problem is spiritual, which extends into the physical, emotional, and psychological realm.

Our (previous) tolerance and (present) celebration of all these social pathologies is a disgrace.

I couldn't care less.
If I never hear of another transgendered freak ever again, it will be too soon.

That's just the way it is.

Moving right along...

Bahar Akyurtlu, a math teacher at Harlem Renaissance HS in Manhattan, says being a good teacher and respecting students helps enormously. “I try to do well by my trans community, by my trans students,” Akyurtlu says. “But more than anything else I like good conversations about gender.”

If only that were the weirdest part of it. Look up “two spirit” and “genderqueer.”

As a teacher, HE just stood and watched as LGBT students got into shouting matches in order to protect HIM. Hmmmm. No discipline. No authority. The hairy knuckled wimp just stood there and let kids protect HIM. What if the students had gotten physical and seriously hurt? Maybe that’s what the sicko wanted.

What textbook curriculum has a unit on BLM?

So this is Trump’s fault? I bet that this would happen even if Hillary (ugh!) had been elected.

I teach English as a Second Language. As one who loves and respects my mother tongue, I will not be adopting foolishness such as the made-up pronouns. Plus, my students already find English enough of a challenge without this crap.

Talk about whatever you like, but when we reach for home plate, we don't want a bat in the way.
