To clarify......

I believe everyone has the right to live as they please providing it doesn't harm another.

Love is love, whether you're in a heterosexual relationship or not.

If you wish to dress as a man, when you're a woman....go ahead fill your boots.

However.....all the political correctness bullshit about genders and the trans community has gotten out of hand.

You are biologically either male or female at birth. No amount of gender reassignment is going to change that!

Children do not need to learn about all this in schools. Yes a little awareness maybe, but they don't need to know the terms for 109 different genders/ or that Fred nextdoor has turned into Maureen and likes to wear fishnet stockings but doesn't shave his/her legs FFS!

Let's keep it real. Let children be children.

😮‍💨 Not another transphobe masking her lack of empathy and understanding with the lame "think of the children" argumentation.

This doesn’t happen and such ignorant takes that are obviously false are frustrating.
Just say you are a transphobe and leave it at that.

@Gloomy No I'm a realist. There's a difference. Everyone is entitled to live in which ever way that makes them happy.

@Lanie78 You ignore psychiatric research and bringing children and their education into this was unnecessary
Lanie78 · 41-45, F
@Gloomy Young children do not need to be educated about it in schools.
Gloomy · F
@Lanie78 Not beyond that trans people exist and should not be hated
Lanie78 · 41-45, F
@Gloomy I don't think anyone should be hated. I just don't deem it necessary to expose young children to things which they just wouldn't or should have to process in with their young minds. Growing up can be confusing enough as it is.
Gloomy · F
@Lanie78 If you care to look into child psychology you would know that kids are curious and less judgmental and have no problem understanding even things adults deem more complex if it is being done the right way.

@Gloomy I don't think she's saying that trans people should be hated :)

@SW-User Yeah but still this rhetoric [quote] However.....all the political correctness bullshit about genders and the trans community has gotten out of hand. [/quote] is extremly bad.

@Gloomy To be fair, yes. I didn't actually read it fully before responding. I do agree that you are born male or female (or intersex); that's your sex. But you should be free to identify as whoever you want. This is why I think we should now have trans changing rooms and toilets.

@Lanie78 From What age would you consider school children old enough to know about the LBQGT community?
Lanie78 · 41-45, F
@justanothername Probably 11/12 onwards. I don't think the education needs to be in great depth either. A basic understanding then if they wish to research it further then that's up to them.
