"'I was shocked and horrified,' Nila Almstrom, a parent of an LGBT student, said at a town hall meeting about the protest. "

I wonder how many "Parents of LGBT" 11 yr old students will, in 10 years, be parents of 'cishet' adults.

But also like, that's a whole lot of letters for one kid.

Trans acceptance will not be complete until trans people are ok with the idea of accepting whatever genitals they have.

It is so literally not a big deal.

you did it!

How many of you went to school with a “trans” kid? I’m near in my 40s and went to a high school that had nearly 3000 children attending and I never went to school with a trans kid. Did anyone over the age of 30 go to school with a “trans” kid?

I'm such a boomer and can't find out how to top level comment. Anyway, trans people have been living pretty open and out at places like Caltech, MIT, etc. And I know people who went there during that time, when I also knew trans people who are going there, somehow in the past 5 years, people I know who were there alongside out trans people, are now realizing that they're really trans, even though they're in there 30s, 40s, etc. They came Supportive families that really didn't give a fuck that they were polyamorous, gay, or whatever... But somehow it's only now that they realized that this was a thing they could do.

I suspect they're presenting the aggressor much more charityably than he deserves.
