"Transgender" is non-existent

The sexes are still the same — male or female — that nature determined. Humans cannot transform from male to female or vice-versa. If anything, they're transvestite — a man dressing as a woman or the opposite.

It's the same as it's been for thousands of years.

In the 1960's some guy named John Money began perpetuating a fraud on the scientific community. He was a 'sexologist' that supported pedophilia and queer behavior. A little child had a horrific circumcision that resulted in the removal of his penis.

In steps Dr Frankenstein... oops, I mean, Mr Money, who decided the boy should have a vagina instead and be a 'girl.' It was a disaster but he lied to the scientific community that it worked grand. He wrote a book, even.

Anyway, it's a story that gets much, much worse, but the boy eventually blows his head off with a sawed-off shotgun in the end.

This Money guy comes up with using the language construct term "gender" in a new way, pretending biological sex can be swapped by calling it "gender." He coined the terms "gender identity" and "sexual orientation," too.

Long story short, people have made it a mission to demonize natural males and females as oppressors and denounce heterosexuality — you know, the natural process that perpetuates our species, while claiming queer sex, cross-dressing, sexual mutilization, grooming 5-year-olds for sex, and such, as the new normal. Don't believe it.

That transgender people do exist and always have, is surely not changed by your or anyone else's opinion.
What John W. Money did or did not do, has no bearing on that.

Great story, yet not once have I heard anyone of much relevance "denounce" heterosexuality or demonize "natural" males and females. That many and more people are more accepting of and less likely to demonize and display their hatred towards "queer" individuals, is a relatively "new normal".

Not true. People as that were commonly called transvestites and the rare condition was not promoted or described as normal by an odd segment of society.

Piper:

Money had major influence on it. He made up the terminology, to begin with, then deceived the scientific community for decades by claiming his perversion of nature was successful when it was not.

Well, now you have...

San Diego Unified is the latest school district to adopt the principles of academic queer theory and translate them into K-12 pedagogy, with the ultimate goal of dismantling “heteronormativity”...

San Diego Unified's new publicy accessible materials follow the basic premise of queer theory: white Europeans created a false “gender binary” and used the categories of “male” and “female” to dominate racial and sexual minorities...

“heteronormativity” forces students to conform to these norms: they are “assigned” a sex at birth, pressed into the identities of “man” and “woman,” and expected to have heterosexual relationships culminating in “marriage (and kids).” This “gender binary,” however, is arbitrary, socially constructed, and harmful...

"oppresses trans, nonbinary, intersex, and gender-nonconforming people”...

the gender binary has created an unjust society that distributes “heterosexual and cisgender privilege”...

“results in institutional power” for straight men and women...

this sexual privilege is connected to a broader range of privileges and oppressions...

What is the solution? To dismantle “heteronormativity”...

San Diego Unified has created a program of gender-identity instruction with the explicit goal of undermining the traditional conception of sex...

disrupt the oppressive system of heteronormativity...

eliminate traditional language from their vocabulary. Men are to be called “people with a penis” and women are to be called “people with a vulva”...

teachers can assist in a child’s gender transition without notifying parents

The goal of “dismantling heteronormativity” is nonsensical and destructive to the basic building blocks of society.

That the numbers of transgender people in the general population is so incredibly low and always has been, is surely not changed by your or anyone else's opinion.

"Over 1.6 million adults (ages 18 and older) and youth (ages 13 to 17) identify as transgender in the United States, or 0.6% of those ages 13 and older."*

That's approximately 1 out of every 205 people. How you and others try to aggrandize it, has no bearing on that. This is a big nothing-burger.

@DffrntDrmmr What "people as that" were commonly called, does not change the fact that they do and always have existed. I see you have edited your post quite a bit, from what I read when I replied to it.
John Money is not even mentioned, regarding the origin of the term "transgender" .


What you have shown in your copy & paste(s), is someone's interpretation of what the San Diego Unified school district is allegedly instructing students. Although I've not had the time or wish to read the 200+ pages of documents Christopher Rufo has tweeted and loudly proclaimed about, it seems at least some of the terminology teachers are encouraged to use with "LGBTQ+ youth & allies" is indeed factual.

I surely do agree, that a school district is of relevance. One thing I did notice in in the workshop 'documents' Rufo has caused such outrage over and is never mentioned in any of the resulting media reports, is this:
Workshops are intended to be taught:
* Within a GSA/LGBTQ+ Club or,
* As an addition to the district-required sexual health curriculum within a content-area classroom by a trained teacher.

Or this:
"CA Ed Code requires parent notification for all comprehensive sexual health and HIV/AIDS prevention education.
*Parents have the right to review curriculum prior to the instruction.
*Parents have the right to opt their child out of the lesson.
*Parents must be notified at least 14 days prior to instruction.

USE PROVIDED TEMPLATE TO NOTIFY PARENTS!"

@PatKirby Since I've neither voiced any opinion on the numbers of transgender people in the "general population" or "aggrandized" anyone based on them being transgender, I'm not sure why you even even took the time to compose that reply to me. 🙄
@Piper I tend to edit the crap out of my posts. I put it out there with little preparation then go at it. 🥴

So, you see all of my edits? (I'm usually on mobile and don't). Text input by virtual keyboard "swipe" is inaccurate, hence typos, which doesn't help matters.

Where did you find the additional information missing from Rufo's report about San Diego Unified (at the bottom of your comment)?

Those are relevant and indicate some restraint by the school system.

The truth is out.

Thus endeth your lesson.

@DffrntDrmmr I do most always notice when someone has edited and significantly changed their post or comment, way after people have responded to it. Just fixing a "typo" is a whole different thing.

I read several different articles related to your post. I found what I included above in quotes and was never mentioned in any of them, fairly early into the documents Rufo refers to. "Original Source Documents", pages 25 and 36:

@Piper My edit's were to more fully address your previous reply with additional information. I also reduced the long Rufo report to only what I had bolded before, removing only that which was irrelevant (previously not bold). *Added this for clarity about our discussion of edits.

I receive Chrisopher Rufo's newsletter that he emails to those who signed up to receive it. It doesn't contain those reference marks.

I appreciate your effort to discover fuller truth about the matter. I also appreciate your scholarly manner and fairness in conveying it.

Truth is our goal.

Thank you!
