What does any of it have to do with transgenders being teachers?

Imagine voting for and constantly defending a senile old man who still thinks he won an election he lost by a mile, and then in the next breath complaining about how mentally ill transgender people are.

And is a study that says 84% of kids grow out of gender dysphoria. 

But yeah let's give 12 year old puberty blockers, it's lunacy

Lack of acceptance? I accept that they are mentally ill.

I will not normalize it.

"I will not normalize it." lol. So adamant. Good for you.
 

Just make sure and keep reminded them that they're "mentally ill." Treat them like complete pieces of crap. Then laugh at me when I say lack of acceptance causes depression and suicide.

Why stop there? Let's target all mentally ill, tell them that they suck for being different, then let's go after the intellectually disabled. Who's with me?

No need to bring trumpbots into this. They've suffered enough the past couple weeks.

Not all gender affirming care has to involve such drastic measures in kids. I don’t think any drugs or surgery should be done on kids under 18. Other than that, I’m not going to treat them any differently than anyone else. I won’t normalize bigotry.

Maybe read the article you post then Kz 

"This study emphasizes the potential benefits of gender-affirming hormone therapy as a mechanism to reduce feelings of gender dysphoria and minority stress among transgender and nonbinary youth—thereby working to improve mental health outcomes and prevent suicide,”

Seems like an incomplete study - it certainly can't be a complete study if it fails to address long term effects

It's people like you that need the reminder.

They're likely aware of it. Glorifying it is making it worse.

And that's your problem in a nutshell.  You treat this as a bigotry issue when really isn't.  There are a lot of progressives who have no trouble being bigoted against somebody because their gay or transgender if that person is a conservative.  They only fall under the protection against bigotry if they identify with progressivism and wokism.

Nobody here is in favor of bullying or putting down a kid.  Kids are just that - kids.  What they identify with when they're 14, and not just sex, can be completely different than when they're 17.  Their hormones are flying all over the place, and their minds are going all over the place.  They need time to grow and evolve.  The right psychologists and counselors can be great for kids - or anybody.  But the wrong ones can really do a number on them and mess them up.

What you wrote (in red), I agree with. Classifying them all as mentally ill, I do not.

"Senile old man"

Interesting that you would choose that particular reference.

There are already laws on the books in some states so we're getting there.  Transgenderism is a serious mental illness and we all know it. 

But I love the kneejerk contrarianism to anything considered "right wing"... especially by the former libertarian frauds-turned leftists

Libertarians believe the less laws we have, the better. They also believe that people can generally do what they want as long as they aren’t hurting anyone else. Your feelers would obviously be excluded.

Silence is violence 

I don't care if you think you are man stuck in a woman's body. I think you are tad crazy and should seek a therapist. People also believe in a magical figure and donate 10% of their hard earned money to it so who am I to judge. 

I do have an issue with parents allowing their children to undergo hormone therapy. I really can't comprehend or wrap my mind around that. 

Also, transgender woman should not be allowed to compete in woman's sports. It is making a mockery of these sports and an insult to woman who worked their entire lives for these opportunities. Woman only make up about 1% of all athletic sponsorship money so to see Dylan Mulvaney get a Nike deal after Nike tried to make Allison Felix take a 70% pay cut a  few years ago because she was pregnant is betrayal to woman. 

 

Don't infringe on my rights and I will be vocal for yours.
