So?

No, no, cmon now, the people of this sub have assured me this is not happening and completely made up. But also, even if it IS happening, which it totally isn't, what's the harm? Kids should start their sexualization journey in 1st grade IMO. It should go, walking for the first time, reading for the first time, 1+1=2, sexually transitioning.

Though, maybe cut back on the whole underwear thing till they can tie their own shoes

Reactionaries have a keen ability to see outrage where it doesn’t exist.

That journey should start sooner if anything. Pre-K they should at the very least be introducing them to Julian the Mermaid

2nd grader? Come on. I hope parents can do something about it. This is crazy stuff.

These are people who believe the child belongs to the state, but only if the state policies match their personal viewpoints.

Ok..? What’s the problem here?

You should post this on Facebook, it will do much better there. Lol

Being a sweaty breathless reactionary is not a substitute for an actual personality.

Julian is a Mermaid is a fantastic book. It’s about a kid who is supported by family and treated kindly for expressing different interests and feelings and not following traditional gender norms regarding dress. He dresses like a mermaid for a mermaid parade.

Of course the right wing snowflakes are losing their minds at the idea of not presenting transgender people as anything but evil abominations.

>ple as anything but e

If you want to teach your kids about transgender, then do it in your home.

Why? They’re part of our society and just as valuable and worthy of understanding as anyone else. I’d say as valuable as you, but I know between a transgender person and you who I’d much rather have in my society.

The problem only exists in the space between Fox News and the eyeballs and ears of reactionary fools.

I think the majority of parents would vote no to teach this. So you are the minority

Yeah it seems like making an mountain out of an non-existent ant hill if you ask me. Sounds like OP has a problem with LGBTQA folks.. kinda lame in 2022, if you ask me.

I rely on the Libs of TikTok Twitter feed for all my factual information. I would never think to verify the accuracy of said tweets. Just as I always accept every Reddit post as truth without question.

/s just in case it’s not clear.

Fun move to go from an assumption to a statement of fact. Just to clue you in, that’s not how facts actually work. Nor would it matter if you found a majority of bigots to oppose this. It doesn’t make the bigotry right.

Get the fuck out of here with that LibsofTikTok garbage. That person is utter trash.

The majority think you are wrong.

So the LGBTQA community are on the same level as rapist, murders, and serial killers to you? It’s a very odd parallel you are trying to draw here.

May be in your empty head.

It’s always remarkable just how sick their view is of people who don’t fit their neat little boxes.

r/Connecticut isn’t your toilet. Shit somewhere else.

Yeah like OP says he rather see parents teach their kids about stuff like this. Yeah nah homie, if parents like you are out there who think it would be even remotely appropriate to compare a already demonized, and let’s face it persecuted minority, to rapist, murders and serial killers.. should be a massive red flag to the rest of us ALL, why this needs to be done by a person who specializes in teaching children in a rational manner, and not be left in the hands of chuckle dicks like this. This is the civil rights fight of our time, and just like we would teach our kids about the civil rights movement of the 1960s, and figures like MLK, or even just have a down to earth talk with kids about race, or ethnicity in school this topic is no different. Kids are going to grow up into a diverse world where they should learn some empathy for the betterment of society and humanity in general.

Thanks for posting this OP. I’m going to buy this book for my daughter for Christmas. I don’t want her to turn into someone like you.

Why is OP so obsessed with the genitalia of others?

Julian sounds like a badass. Hella fun kid who lives life to the fullest.

Maybe not “may be”, bot.

What's with the super right wing spam coming in last few days? It's a noticable uptick.

If you don't agree with the topic is super right wing? Open your mind my friend.

I have two very cis boys. Both did dress up and ran around naked when they were seven. Hell, my teen still throws on his Mom's heels for a goof. Being unsure about gender is a pretty natural part of early development. It is only fucked up when adults sexualize it. Usually, these adults are the ones who are the most dangerous.

One of the rules of this sub is that any views other than the extreme left are “literal” nazi/fascist hate speech. Also, eversource posts.

Yeah … they would be better to remain silent rather than continue to crystallize in public their very shitty bigoted and racist none sense.

Man, I just... I just do not give a shit and I have a well established suspicion people that go around looking for these types of stories don't really either and only want to use those kinds of one of stories to beat a minority group with in a manner that Milligram would weep with how correct he is.

I mean I went to school and we learned from this book that said a town raped angels that were playing as needing visitors and then the town was destroyed because of it. Is that any better than this story?

Thanks for the info! I’m gonna order this book so I can read it to my two young daughters!

Oh my god. Underwear? How will society ever recover??

Proud of my district!

NO is not better. This is why I'm against teaching the Bible in school.

Spewing hate against LGBTQA folks is super right wing bro.

How is this post spewing hate? Are you very micro sensitive?

Cause clearly you have an issue with this.. so why all the hate? You do realize this is how any rational adult will view this post, and more so when framed with the subsequent other shit you posted here, you know this right? Like you think we are the extremists here, I'm here to inform you, you that's YOU. If you are ignorant to this fact, you really need to be more self aware bud.

Conversation has been had. Old news. Go away.

Great idea! I’ll buy a couple to donate!

What is your reasoning for this being wrong? For transgendered people being wrong? It’s clear you have an issue with a segment of society and you’d rather ignore that segment than simply saying they exist, they, like other groups are mostly good people who just want to live a happy and productive life. But because they are different from you, you’re scared I guess. That’s fine- people get scared all the time. Understand your fears and look at them. I’d hope you’d realize there is nothing to be afraid of, and it’s not worth your energy to be fearful.

Older people - including myself need to realize our viewpoints are outdated. If younger people are good with something then that’s how it’s going to go. It’s their world more than ours. Stop fighting it. Try to live a happy life and help others be happier along the way.

OP totally obsessed with kids genitals

I mean the actual moral of the Sodom and Gomorrah allegory is to treat the needy as well as you possibly can (the inscribed gold) and to act humbly in the face of works done in the name of God (which any good cause can fill in for).

So... Maybe you're in a moral panic? Maybe? Something that doesn't really happen en masse in CT...

I really thought the spam would decrease after the election but it hasn't.
