This man scares me, and it scares me that he's teaching at a famous university. All of these universities are harming their reputations by embracing this. And notice he doesn't even call for the books to be recycled (all eco friendly like the Woke are supposed to be) but instead wants fires (carbon emissions!) The Woke can't even stick to their own narrative.

I imagine that having to refer to this obvious man - who often sports a bushy mustache and brags about how much he looks like Freddie Mercury - as a woman and pretend he's a woman is also psychologically harmful, indeed deeply damaging, to his young students and colleagues too. Damaging to students and colleagues of both sexes, but particularly the female ones. Coz it's the female students, professors and TAs that will have to put up with him in women's toilets, women's locker rooms and women's groups and meetings on campus, and see him held up as a female professor and exemplar of feminism and what women have achieved in academia. Talk about gaslighting and head-fuckery.

This is why there's such a big push to get Drag Queens into libraries and schools to read to little kids. So from a very early age children will learn they must call men in makeup and dresses women, distrust their own senses and instincts, swallow their own discomfort over being gaslit, and accept as normal the extreme demoralization that occurs to people who are forced to say 2+2=5.

Same goes with that new book for kids just learning to read, "Brenda Is A Sheep," that tells little kids that if they are really kind and nice to a ferocious wolf in sheep's clothing who is planning to kill and eat them, he not only won't act on the predatory instincts nature and evolution endowed him with - he'll show them that wolves actually make the best sheep. Talk about lambs to the slaughter - and the proverbial silence of the lambs too.

I had been horrified by Drag Queen story hour since I first heard of it, and female friends had told me I was making a big deal out of nothing, and I had never put my finger on it the way you just described. That's it exactly. They are messing with our sense of reality.

HOW can it be legal to force people to lie? How can women be fired over "respecting pronouns" when what it really means is "you will ignore reality or else!" ??? A man in makeup and a dress is still a man. I don't wear makeup or dresses, and I'm still female. No specific costume is required.

Why isn't everyone standing up? This is what I don't get. I mean okay, x-% of college kids will go along with insane things because they are in that phase of knowing better than all the people who came before them, but everyone else -- WHY is anyone playing along? Why are my own female friends (and we're over 40) "correcting" my pronouns when I call a man "he"? The majority surely know that a man stays a man no matter what surgery or hormones are done to him.

In what universe is Brenda a Sheep????

Our_ team - I feel ya. All the questions you are asking are the ones I shout into the void daily, even in my sleep.

My kid's leaving high school soon and I'm seriously considering alternatives to university where he'll be taught actual life skills instead learning about the Genderbread Man.

Is he smart enough to get into the University of Chicago? That's one place I know where they haven't signed up for gender ideology or a lot of the other dangerous ideas that have swept through and taken over most of academia.

Good to know.

I don't know your son's interests, but plumber, electrician, HVAC, any of that pays well and is in demand. Firefighter is a great job with early retirement. There are good careers out there that require training but not university.

Also the once-maligned job known as "cable guy" has grown in importance and expertise in the years since cable providers also became internet providers. I have utmost respect for the "cable guys" who provide my household with service! And I like and admire them personally too.

I checked my library which has four copies, and one was unavailable due to "being fixed, mended." How gross is it for the woke to destroy books via one of the few socialist institutions (which they should be all for protecting) we have, the library?

Just like the nazis...what was horseshoe theory again?

I'm pretty sure Hitler burned books too.

These people are all mentally ill. They just are, plain and simple. Look at how easily they discuss breaking any and all laws as long as it in service of their cause; it is often the first thing they think of. Extreme reactions to a perceived threat is indicative of something wrong upstairs. This is an educated person who instantly jumps to the conclusion that they must go into libraries, rip out the pages and replace them with their "own propaganda". That is not a person who has all his marbles.

I've certainly looked to see if I could donate a few copies locally but none of the local libraries are taking donations right now.

I find it funny that this TG "woman" chose the euphemism about stopping something from reproducing itself - something that their biologically male bodies stop them from doing (in a female capacity, at least) quite effectively.
