This just in: if you write a book on a subject, that means you are correct on the subject as well as an authority on the subject, and no one can dispute you. [NB: it does not mean you can spell.]

“Its [sic] clear only of [sic] us needs to educate ourselves”
I hope the book had a vigilant and patient editor.
Right, some of us are seriously overeducated as it is. Ask any know-it-all.
“This will kill people.”
How, exactly? And I do mean “exactly.” Be specific. Explain in detail how anyone will be killed by not allowing boys in girls’ sports. Or by not lying to parents about what the children are doing and saying in school. Or by teachers and principals saying “no” to delusions, in order to protect other pupils.
Transperbole and lies.
This will klll people. It’s my life experience. I am litterally dead.
We should perhaps be grateful it’s not their littoral experience.
Rob, that’s exactly what I thought when I saw the headline on the post; I read it that way. Of course, I’m not surprised, since I am a wetland biologist and teach about littoral areas all the time (not any more – I’m retired! And I’m in Maine househunting!)
Is there a single instance anywhere of some parent killing a kid because the kid declares trans?
This constant insistence to kids that their parents are really monsters waiting for the kid to turn trans so the parents can then abuse and torture them is pure cult indoctrination and I don’t know why there isn’t more pushback on that particular play by the trans cult.
In my experiences of watching the lives and families of my friends of childhood, the rotten parents who actually did abuse their kids were doing so for no “reason” besides just being abusive parents.
If his “life experience” is of being the opposite sex, it is indeed litter.
The “danger” is suicide threat. Accept me, affirm me, or I’ll kill myself. Better a living daughter than a dead son. That sort of thing. They get a lot of mileage out of this claim of suicide risk.
It’s emotional blackmail. I, for one, refuse to bow to it. You say you’re going to kill yourself unless we use your pronouns? That’s your choice. I’m not using your pronouns, regardless.
That sounds harsh, I know. However, having been manipulated for years by someone who repeatedly fell back to suicide threats when I would not do what was wanted, I simply won’t have any part of it.
It’s mega-constant-relentless-outrageous emotional blackmail…yet people who used to know better have fallen for it.
If here, litteral means spreading trash about then perhaps it isn’t a typo.
@Southwest88 –
In answer to your question, I’m sure that there probably have been cases where that’s been the ostensible reason. But I’d also incline to agree that in any such case, the ostensible reason was just one among any number of possible reasons, and that it happened just to be at the top of the list on that particular day.
And yet, kids suffering abuse at home, or the gay kids of homophobic parents, may need the school to preserve their privacy. A very different matter from providing site-specific sets of pronouns.
