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.”

Out of all the service branches, it seems like the Navy has been hit hardest by Obama’s policies, based on this and many other incidents.

They need to put this on hold for 6 weeks. Then they can cancel it altogether.

Oh dear. That kind of training wins no wars. If winning wars isn’t the objective of The United States Navy then let’s just shut her down, pull down the Stars and Bars, scuttle the warships and run up a white flag.

They’re going to have to bleach down the USS Constitution.

It’s set sail a number of times for special people on special occasions with no other mention or discussion by the Fraud’s fawning presstitutes.

The Fraud has often talked down to America and said he’s not interested in talking about winning.
