New challenge for schools: accommodating transgender 6-year-olds
NYPost / AP ^ | May 28, 2013

(edit)

Some experts predict that views on gender will evolve in much the same way they have for sexual orientation, since homosexuality was removed as a mental illness nearly four decades ago. Today, the gender spectrum includes those who are transgender, who see themselves as the opposite gender, and those who are gender variant, or gender nonconforming, whose gender is more "fluid." For kids, it means they identify part of themselves as boy and part as girl.

 

(edit)

In Colorado, for instance, the parents of a 6-year-old transgender girl are suing their school district for trying to make her use a separate bathroom.

I can’t imagine with the way our society is heading (already IS) we won’t have a serious price to pay. It occurred to me that some (sick) parents might want to delay puberty for a ‘star’ athlete or singer whose talent would change dramatically with puberty. Yuck is about it, isn’t it?

Thanks for the info.

Homosexual Agenda Ping

Freepmail wagglebee to subscribe or unsubscribe from the homosexual agenda ping list.

Be sure to click the FreeRepublic homosexual agenda keyword search link for a list of all related articles. We don't ping you to all related articles so be sure to click the previous link to see the latest articles.

Add keywords homosexual agenda to flag FR articles to this ping list.

Oops - meant to ping both lists. Unfortunately the homosexual agenda (just as I've been saying for years - actually since the late 80s) isn't a narrow issue that hardly affects anyone. It's being used as a tool of perverted tyranny over everyone.

Anyone wanting on/off either ping list, freepmail me.

Sexual identity is psychological.
Gender is physical.

I disagree. Sexual identity is biological. The easiest determination is if you have an "outie" you're a male. There is no such thing as "gender" when referring to living beings. Gender refers to parts of speech or inanimate objects. Living things have sexes. And a living thing's sex is determined by biology. For humans, if you have a Y chromosome, you are a male. (May be some very rare xxxy or xxxxxy type mutations where it becomes a more difficult choice, but in general the rule stands)

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Boys are boys and girls are girls, no matter anyone’s opinion, including their own.

This is sexual abuse.

 

Agreed.  The totalitarian Left loves any opportunity to manipulate, no matter the devastation left behind.

I wonder how many of these children will be dead of suicide in a few years. 

"sigh"

New rules! Everyone squats outside behind trees. You've ALL lost civilization privileges. 

 

I keep hoping that this is all merely a nightmare and that I'll wake up, finding that none of it is true.  It's all madness, and anyone who dares to object is tarred as a "hater".  Soon people will be going to prison for daring to speak out against this, it seems.

That was a famous case, I recall a documentary on it as well. More lives destroyed, and those responsible only move on to even more lucrative academic positions after they’ve been proven wrong.

They’re everywhere, they’re everywhere!

 

Even if they aren't, legislation is made to accommodate them and society is altered for all of us, regardless of the numbers involved.  The tyranny of the minority.

Why is there a need for such an implant? What is the disorder?

transgender 6-year-olds

There's no such thing.

The only reason the kids know of such things is because their child-molester teachers "taught them".

Agreed. And these childrens’ lives will most likely be destroyed as a result. So very sad.

A sad update to one of the elements of this ugly, depressing saga:

Indeed; there are times when I hope that it’s all just a nightmare and I’ll be waking up from it all sometime, but then I remind myself that America is too wonderful, despite the Left’s efforts to corrupt at destroy it, to do anything other than push back as hard and as often against these idiots as I can.
