you don't think transgendered individuals reading transgendered story books to preschoolers is not indoctrination? transgendered people like the one in the picture Making homosexual sex a completely normal thing to 3- 7 years old is not grooming? Why don't you look up the transgenderedstorytime web sight where they say teaching children uninhibited exploration of their bodies a main focus for them.

They're not transgender, they're drag queens

No, I don't think reading transgendered story books to preschoolers is anymore indoctrinating than reading non-trangender stories. Books make people think, not the opposite.

Homosexuality is entirely different from trangenderism. As is often spoken in defense of public bathrooms, people around here seem to think transwomen will rape women. Which appears to at least justify that perception that transgenderism isn’t as explicitly tied to homosexuality, does it not? And in my experience with speaking to such both transwomen (and the often overlooked transmen) appear to prefer the sexual company of women no matter how they identify. Trans or otherwise. While that may be homosexual in nature, it is not exclusive to the possibility of a biological heterosexual couple despite transgenderism. Though even that can be extremely rare.

In short, it’s complicated.

The purposes of the books is not to turn children homosexual or trangender but teach tolerance of different people. If that is the sort of “indoctrination” you are against, then what are you trying to indoctrinate to these children? Your own perceptions of people that you do not know or speak to?

Love how you completely skipped the part where masterbation is discussed by drag queens with preschoolers.. lmfao yea its complicated all right :D And yea I am completely against drag queens and transgendered individuals teaching little children how to "explore" their bodies. I guess you think its fine. to each his own.

My mistake, you told me to go directly to the source. Which is called Drag Queen Story Hour.

It says nothing about exploring their bodies but this comes pretty close to your accusation.

“Drag Queen Story Hour is a fun and important program that celebrates diversity in the way that children may dress and act. It encourages children to look beyond gender stereotypes and embrace unfettered EXPLORATION OF SELF. Programs like DQSH encourage acceptance of difference and help to prevent bullying, while providing an enjoyable literary experience.”

If you’re taking “exploration of self” out of context, I can see where you might think this means masturbation. However, it could simply mean accepting one self so until I see anything explicitly points to that, I cannot agree that that is their purpose.

Your ad hominems do not change my argument.

Nor do your exaggerations and inaccuracies.

Drag Queen Story Time had nothing to do with a council wanting to introduce something called “sextionary” where people could discuss with children masturbation.

Neither story is related beyond happening in the UK.

What DID happen at Drag Queen Story Time was that a registered sex offender was among the drag queens who read to children. And while that is most unfortunate, the individual was barred from future events as well as Drag Queen Story Time.

While I find Drag Queen Story Time to be utterly tasteless, I refuse to condemn anyone for it beyond allowing a sex offender into the group. You may see them all as sex offenders but clearly that is not the case and are using one incident to exaggerate an entire lifestyle; which is a tactic often typical of biggots.

Personally, I believe you’re above such nonsense given you’re previous good faith and intellectual honesty.

It’s possible you just confused and conflated the two. The article of the sexionary and Drag Queen Story Time certainly does this.

Perhaps I’m wrong that reading isn’t so manipulative to some individuals. Then again, it’s not a book so much as a journal blurb.

So Native Americans are not part of the human race...huh. Interesting, things you get to learn from other people here.

so feeling that you are a different gender.. some that don't even exist in reality.. is okay, but feeling l;ike you are a different race.. is not okay? liberal logic is hard to follow..

Not really.

Gender and heritage are two separate things. A person need only be natured or nurtured into one to respectfully represent it. Nothing says you can’t wear the headdress as long as you do it respectfully and accurately; and without using it merely as a costume but as a true representation of YOUR culture.

For Native Americans, it’s a lifestyle, not a costume.

It is the same with transpeople. For them, it’s not a costume. It’s a lifestyle.

Liberal logic is easy enough to understand; if one takes the time to do so.

You don’t even have to agree with it.

For example, personally; I don’t give a rat’s ass if you do wear a headdress and parade around in it. It’s your choice.

OKay good but you HAVE to call me Chief or else you are a racist.

That doesn’t follow on respect. You don’t have to assert your beliefs onto mine. You want to call transpeople by your preferred pronouns? That’s fine - but your right to do that ends without legislating anything that suppresses their rights to protect your own. Or barring them from organizations or places without giving them a realistic alternative.

Just as I would not support legislation to remove discussion of transpeople from any age group, I would not support legislation that “protects” against cultural appropriation.

Both prevent mutual assimilation into society and are strictly liberal when applied to legislation..

Traditional? Perhaps. Anti-liberal? Maybe.

Not conservative at all.

When you apply any legislation that overrules a right of an individual; it’s discrimination.

No matter whom supports it or why.

If you don't respect my feelings and call me Chief , you are a bigot and a racist. it is as simple as that.

You’re free to believe that.

But I’m not suppressing your discussion of it with anyone, nor supporting such suppression.

That makes you a racist if you don't agree to call me Chief. and you have to clap for me and post how brave I am. You HAVE to or else you are a Hitler Nazi racist.

You saying I am a thing, doesn’t make me a thing no matter how much you want it.

And hey, they saying they’re something you don’t agree with may not make them that either.

But I support your right to say it and believe it; just as I support theirs.

If you can’t, then you may just be a hypocrite.

The fact that you too terrified and socially conditioned to tell me "no" shows why our society is degenerating into this joke we see today. Thanks for playing, Gum.
