Yes, I know there have many MUCH worse events in history -- but this disgusts me. And the fawning CNN article is almost as bad as the young man being voted homecoming queen.

And I purposely use the word "man" because I have been told that actual surgery cannot be performed until the age of 18, and he's 17.

I immediately thought “nut case”.

2 years later, I now understand that he was a visionary, and I was dead wrong for even questioning him on it.

People can evolve, and I now firmly believe that schools are harming children.

Case in point, this story.
Snapchat and TikTok are big influences of this, too!

It's astounding to me the number of people that have responded to this article with clinical opinions indicating that they are mental health professionals and experts on gender dysphoria.

People in majority white neighborhoods fear black males. People who don't know gays or transgenders or lesbians think of them based upon the stereotypes.
??? Yet you wouldn't stereotype anyone now would ya

Nobody needs to be an expert in anything to understand what we've known since the beginning of time. Sure, some people want to live as if they are the opposite sex. Wanting people to accept that as "normal" will never fully be realized but we can probably get people to ignore it, live and let live, thats the best anyone ever gets in life. What people won't ignore is being told that a man IS actually a woman or visa verse. It's window dressing, and society can be accomodating only because sociaty can be nice. But denying physical reality isn't something you can insist upon no matter how you dress it up. People, even "experts", will say anything for a buck, a thumbs up, or becasue they are scared to NOT say something. But that doesn't mean people actually believe it. It's like lying about being religious, people do that all the time AND WE KNOW IT. We already know this.
