The Gender madness
I’m sure that even the most delinquent, isolationist of dank hole living trolls will be aware of the growing worldwide madness surrounding gender confusion. But something struck me as particularly fucked up, yesterday.
At a kiddies indoor soft play area (UK), there was a little girl, (could have been a boy, I suppose, wearing pink, with a pony-tail, and looking for all intents and purposes like any other young girl of that age) with a unisex name, who had a tendency towards extreme indecision, and then would get upset on a frequent basis- mostly about the rougher boys.
About 5years old, at most; same as Freightdog junior.
The other kids for the most part, thought the kid was a girl- the boys were typically boys, and slightly boisterous, the girls were typically girls, and a little more caring. They tried, as kids do, to be inclusive in their way, and yet she didn’t really want to reciprocate.
This kid’s grandmother kept referring to her as He. ‘Leave him alone’ the grandmother would protest, if the boys were a bit rough, or ‘He’s always like this’, ‘he’s always doing things like this’ were the apologetic comments from ‘nanna’.
Initially, I thought she (the kid) must have had a brother in there, playing, too. But no, as closing time approached, it became apparent that this kid was the only one belonging to that family.

Well, not to be a one upsman … but in San Francisco had a case where the kid identified as a cat. Parents sued the school district and won the case. Now schools must provide litter boxes for kids who identify as cats! #sickworld

What's your point? Some kids really do have gender issues, you know. But you, the master of human behaviour, can judge in an hour of two.Freightdog wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2024 5:35 pm I’m sure that even the most delinquent, isolationist of dank hole living trolls will be aware of the growing worldwide madness surrounding gender confusion.

What if people had difficulties deciding if Freightdog junior were a boy or a girl, and you would call him (them?) a boy?

5 year old kids do not have gender issues, they're just kids. If the kid was born wi a winkie down there, call it 'he'. If not, y'know, go for 'she'.

Re: The Gender madness
You’re either being deliberately obtuse (from past experience, not outside the bounds of possibility), or you are exactly the sort of teacher that is causing many concerns on the matter, and requiring many otherwise clear thinking adults to take disproportionate care, lest they upset your ‘progressive’ views at their own child’s expense.Kammekor wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2024 9:08 pmWhat's your point?
