The sad part is that this is the slippery slope that was warned of by people fighting against marriage equality. It sounded ridiculous at the time but it has come to pass. The really sad part is that this nonsense was totally preventable and has nothing to do with marriage equality.

It is crazy the extent to which the alphabet mafia colonized the lgb movement from the inside out and is able to push all the bullshit that rational people find absurd under the guise of 'equal rights' and 'inclusivity'. Preschoolers don't need to have a deep think about how they feel on the inside. They need to not eat paste and smack each other with blocks.

Exactly. Kids dont live anymore. Nobody needs to worry about this crap until they are in their teens anyway

I think teen years is one of the worst times to learn about gender because they're so desperate for an identity, an answer, anything to justify their inner turmoil when the truth is; all teenagers struggle to find themselves, that's part of being a teenager. Sexual orientation and how to navigate healthy platonic, sexual and romantic relationships should be taught to teens. Gender souls, no. Let them find out about that on their own as adults.

I agree, when I said "this stuff" I meant more sex ed and sexual orientation not the gender crap.

Let them eat paste and hit each other with blocks, it's how they learn boundaries and logical consequences for their actions. Maybe if more kids learned about physical boundaries and cause/effect of their actions, we would have less adults running around screaming about gender souls and refusing to let go of their favorite brand of make believe.

Back in the good old days maybe. If you start gobbling up the Elmers and hitting other kids these days, you're going to be put on some medication.
