The one in Tennessee was discussed here recently too, and surprise surprise.. it was met with much liberal wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Many states are banning healthcare for "trans-children," and Dems are losing their minds, even though so called moderates claim that they were against this.....

What sort of "events" are you referring to? Political events? School events? If so, can you provide sources that supports just a few of the "many events" that you are claiming?

Some are advocating the violent extinction of all trans and gay people.

Pretty much anything with cheerleaders. Literally twerking in bikinis.

To be clear, I have no problem with that. If I did, I wouldn't take a child to such an event. I don't think cheerleaders or sporting events should be banned or age restricted.

I will also point out that there are probably several drag queens from drag queen story hour who simply do want to help people and also view themselves as being a role model for kids to understand it is ok to be lgbt. That's all fine, but I think it would be better if they were properly dressed while doing so.

Refusing to honor a basic dress code is not something to be celebrated imo.

No, just your tranny and drag freaks. Good times though huh..
It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

Even if you call it mentally ill or not, it doesn't dismiss its reality. Nor does it dismiss the empirical treatments. Conversion therapy has been ineffective. Affirming their preferred gender has worked better at reducing suicide rates. Calling it a mental illness is just a way to diminish it. Depression is a mental illness, but it is no less real. Mental illnesses are biological. There is no distinction.

Are trans women/men women/men? Not exactly. You could label an mtf a mentally ill man. But the label really solves nothing. It doesn't change the reality of what they are. A man who thinks he is a woman is an mtf at the end of the day. That person is a trans woman. You can say that's not a real woman. True. It doesn't change what they are though. Life doesn't always neatly dichotomize everything. There are abnormalities in biological development, both pre and post gonadal differentiation. I believe many trans people are the result of those post differentiation abnormalities.

They are still people. They still should have rights and be treated with respect.

There's a lot of overt hatred. Personally, I feel that kind of messaging is more harmful to children and society.

is it though? or is it that we refuse to become advocates?

Also overt hatred is a very wide spectrum with one end being advocating for the violent extinction of all trans and gay people which I do not recall ever seeing here.

LMFAO!!! Oh NOW we're concerned about children and society!!

Tranny and drag freaks airing out their jock itch in front of them is perfectly acceptable.. Wholesome family entertainment. Charming even.

But hating said freaks who do that.. well that's just downright harmful to them.

I think there's a big difference between tolerance/acceptance and advocacy.

The entire purpose for this is to get protestors to come out in maga hats so they can make them look like bigots. These politicians dont care about trans people or kids or storytime or any if this nonsense.

People need to just put these foolish attempts on ignore and dont show up to protest. They will stop doing them once they realize its not getting the desired media phot ops they wanted.

I hate freaks who do that, but if a drag queen dresses normally and decides to read age appropriate material to kids in his ph4gg0ty voice to help them learn, what is wrong with that?

Nothing at all. Huge difference between that and twerking and showing your balls to kids.

Even if a drag queen is dressed abnormally but still fully dressed and otherwise just reading age appropriate stuff, I have no problem with that.
