There was another thread on a similar issue, where a teacher actually argued that child was gay simply because he didnt fit her definition of masculinity.

That was harmful, she 100% should have been fired. she made an assumption based on her own stereotypes and then acted on it in a way that will forever affect that persons' life.
This aint that.
This sounds like some homophobic parent found out their kid might be gay (exactly why these clubs are hidden) and lost their ish.
When I was growing up a neighbor of mine was the stereotypical tomboy until she reached the age of about 15 or so. After that she oozed femininity. This dimwit teacher would have argued that she was a lesbian.

not a one of the yee haws posting on this thread read the links....the schools changed the kids names...but didn't even rollover their medical records
Its a link to a twitter thread and unless i missed it the mom never actually said any of this in her speech which is also in the twitter thread.
Lets also be clear, the school didnt legally change anyone's name(at least, the twitter thread doesnt claim they did), all they did was call children by their preferred name.
Not seeing the outrage here. Teachers invite kids to join a club. Club members include straight and gay kids. Kids with different lifestyles learn to live together. Oh, the horror!
You don’t see a problem with manipulating kids into joining some group and teaching them what that group wants them to believe? This is nothing but an ideologs pushing their political opinion on these kids.

I guess some of our posters don't realize that in order to have a Gay-Straight Alliance...
You have to have some straight kids to be allied with the gay ones.

There can be an alliance. They insist on shoving it down folks throats instead. However, they still haven’t figured out that shoving things down folks throats is nonsense, but muh entitlement.
