But trans people have contributed so much to our country!

For example, the trans continental railroad, which made it possible to go all the way across the country by train.

Obama called it the inter continental railroad. He was clearly guilty of transphobia.

“He's an amazing man,” student Wyatt Pedersen told WWBT News

Their cause is in the right place. You can't fool mother nature.

We need to teach ourselves and our kids a few more adjectives to describe someone, other than "amazing". It is so overused in reality TV it makes for a perfect drinking game catchphrase.

We could try “brilliant”. That’s not been overused, has it? (And, I love my President, but I tremendously wish he’d find some new adjectives and superlatives).

I liked being ogled at work by men.

Just keep remembering these incidents in the context of “how does my gay marriage affect your marriage?”. That’s how the left operates. And their ultimate goal is yet to be realized.

When you can’t even agree on what constitutes basic reality. It is time to separate.

refused to refer to a trans-identified student by their preferred pronoun

One wonders if the "tranny" wanting everyone's attention not only wants it on the basis of biological confusion but also because he/she/it is numerically confused as well? She thinks she is not one but two, three or more males? Or is it just the author who is confused?

Doesn’t matter- the communist objective is to silence. They really do not care about these mentally messed up people.

Trans people invented BOTH the manual and automatic transmissions. Without them, we could only travel in first gear!

Wonder if this all started when some attention whore or joker said, “Hold my beer and watch this- I can change the whole world just by whining to liberals who believe their purpose in life is to virtue-signal on social media.”

If it doesn’t know what it is, why not just call it IT?

“Your mental illness does not require me to humor your delusions”

I’m going to remember and use that one...

Question.... If I am fired for not using proper pronouns due to my Turret’s Syndrome, is it a violation of the American’s with Disabilities Act?

If I don't know what gender to call a person, I'll say He/She/It.

With my slight southern drawl, it comes out "Hee...sheeeyit." :)

My friend used to just call them he-shes. As a noun.

Not sure if she (oops) uses that appellation anymore (she moved to FL and I don’t talk to her as much). No one seems to think it’s “bad” to be a he-she anymore.

One interesting point about this story: the man is a French teacher. The pronoun thing takes on a whole new meaning against that backdrop. In French, and other Romance languages, there is no neutered gender (”it”). Everything is masculine or feminine, based on what it is.

I praise him for his conscience and his decision, I just find this interesting and indicative of the issue that has arisen now that gender has replaced sex in our every day speech.
