Yeah, I know the drill: “Do you want a dead son, or a live daughter.”
Spit!
No drill and not what I asked.
[spit]?
The phenomenon I discribed is real and happening all around you.
Boil it all down to this and ask yourself:
What would you do if it was your child?
...at least show some empathy for the parents who didn’t see this coming either.
I leave it there.
My policy position:
In the case of transgender girls/women (biological males who’s orientation leans toward female sensitivities) do not belong in:
Women’s bathrooms
Women’s changing rooms
Women’s locker rooms
Nor do they belong on women’s sports teams because they are biologially 30% stronger and are therefor a danger to women completitors AND this unfair advantage robs women of historic achievement and the confidence and glory that go with it.
Schools should not take any action other than providing a safe environment for children who are identifying as the opposite gender, boys or girls. Instead they should provide support to the parents who find themselve wrestling with the situation.
No child should be given hormone treatments, puberty blockers or have access to gender reassignment surgery until they reach the age of majority.
The military is no place for social experiment. You are either combat ready or you are not combat ready. That is the bar.
