OK, let me see if I understand this:  So am I going to ask my 3yr old daughter if I should buy a dress or a pair of pants for her to wear?  

Or when we go into a public bathroom I'll just say:  "honey, just get into wherever you feel more comfortable"

Or I'll say to my 3 YEARS OLD child:  "Honey, we just don't know if you are a man or a woman just yet, you will get to decide that"

You really don't see nothing wrong in that scenario?

If you're born a male, you're a male and vice versa. What determines your sex is your chromosomes. You can believe that you're a girl, dress like one, act like one and get surgery to look like one, but you're a boy still because of science. Sorry, I didn't make the world. It is what it is.

Wow.

"Are you a boy or a girl?" Is the new "sex talk"

But seriously, I don't think it is a good idea for parents to try to force such ideas on their kids. Odds are overwhelming that the kid will identify with its sex at birth, and if otherwise, he'll figure out on his own in time. I didn't need my parents's help to figure out I liked guys.

The fact that public schools in Washington are going to introduce trangenderism to KINDERGARTNERS is maddening. To me, it all honestly sounds like the pushing of an agenda.

I don't know where I stand on this, I kinda think it is a problem of self acceptance like any other, only gender related and maybe it is a psycological disorder. Its a complex subject.

The sentiment likely stems from the "Die Cis Scum" movement from Tumblr, where Tumblrfucks were disgusted that people's genders are chosen at birth. I think there's a ton of confusion in this thread regarding that. 

That said, a parent can't choose something personal like that for their child after they develop their own sense of self... But I think a default is necessary. I will raise my daughter as a girl until she decides to be a tomboy, or a priss, or a lesbian, or whatever she decides. Because kids need that structured aspect of their life. And when they decide to alter their identity, that needs to be structured as well. 

What is the world coming to.....

Oh, Sorry.  Maybe is because English is not my native language but I was under the impression that a "child" was a person between birth and puberty?

If that definition is true then a three year old kid would fall into that category (Again, me not being a native speaker, I'm not 100% sure about this)

I have not questioned scientific methods. I read science myself and liked it. Over the years i've come to find out that some are factual and others are bogus.

The fuck did I just read


Remember the good old days when you were a dude meant that you were a dude. Or when you were a chick meant that you were a chick..

You should publish your methodology for determining the difference and then collect your Nobel Prize.
