Who Will Protect Gender-Nonconforming Kids?
Hint: Not Big LGBTQ+.
More: This study found that almost a fourth of gender detransitioners cited homophobia or difficulty accepting themselves as lesbian, gay, or bisexual as a reason for transitioning.
I am hetero, but at that age I wanted to be a boy. I dressed like a boy, I had the mannerisms of a boy, and I wanted to be the Marlboro Man when I grew up. By 15, I was “all girl.” They are going to be messing up a lot of kids with this stuff.

Under this definition wouldn't all of us who are gay men and lesbians be considered transgender? Some of the stuff we do often (like gay sex) does not conform to what is "typically associated" with our sex which was determined at birth. pic.twitter.com/qQyqCeNxuL

What’s Going on in Elementary Schools?
The battle over appropriate lessons in elementary schools around sexual orientation and gender identity has gotten ugly. LBGTQ+ advocates say it’s “Don’t Say Gay” homophobia/transphobia and nothing is going on behind parents backs. Critics say it’s sexual grooming of kids. Both sides are lying to mobilize their bases.
Here’s what’s going on in a growing number of public school classrooms that’s triggered the backlash.
Plus: K-3 Lessons & Resources.
There is a serious problem with political rhetoric on all sides, but the outrage only gets directed at one side.

If you think it’s wrong to refer to bill opponents as pro-grooming, then you should be equally outraged about the smear that proponents want to kill kids. https://t.co/uArztoTd8v

‘Queer’ Morphs into Gender Identity
'At the core of gender identity ideology, is a very simple proposition that's seductive, and it looks attractive, but in fact is very dangerous.'

Protecting Gay Youth
Rob Jessel and Hassan Mamdani, below, concluded: “Many gay men who can remember rampant homophobia feared it would raise its ugly head again. None of us thought it would return draped in the rainbow flag, championed by the charities that once worked to protect us.”
And worth repeating: “We’re Lesbians on the Autism Spectrum. Stop Telling Us to Become Men”
A reminder: every major medical association in the US once supported heroin in cough syrup, mercury to treat syphilis, lobotomies for mental illness—oh, and let's not forget homosexuality was in the DSM as a mental illness until 1973. https://t.co/t3k6hVCPmZ

Maybe They Should Replace It with “1984”
Despite how ridiculous the school book controversy has become, it’s important to remember it began because progressives insisted on including a book that involved explicit incest and sexual assault in middle schools to promote LGBTQ works.

Gay and Lesbian Youth at Risk
Annie Kia writes:
The queer ideology movement drives the view that all children with gender dysphoria are trans. It follows from this assumption that holistic therapy is considered irrelevant or undesirable, and the stated gender identity of the child should be immediately affirmed and that medical transition should be expedited. …<
After being swept up in the surge in young people getting body altering hormones and surgeries, Detrans Gay Guy came to realise he was gay and not trans. He detransitioned. At the time of this tweet, he was to have surgery for prosthetic testicles. Hereafter, Big Pharma will supply him with testosterone.
Detrans Gay Guy is not alone. There are increasing accounts of young people who detransition (re-identify with their biological sex). …
You’d expect LGBT organisations to care for young gay men like Detrans Gay Guy, or young women who discover that all along they were lesbians and deeply regret the lasting impact of testosterone, and/or surgical removal of their breasts, and/or vagina and uterus.

Conversion Therapy Goes Woke
A new year, and we’re likely to see LGBTQ activists step up their advocacy of woke conversion therapy for gay boys and, especially, lesbian girls.
Former Iceland PM “refers to LGB Alliance, which points out that some of the children that people want to say are trans could become homosexual & happy. We are back to the point where homosexuality needs to be corrected.” https://t.co/3Vqt0BSVmx

Who Stands Up for Gay and Lesbian Kids?
Not big-LGBTQ, that’s for sure.
In the U.K., teachers are told not to push tomboys to change their gender just because of the way they like to dress or play.
We try to maintain a measured tone here. But in truth we’re very angry at what has happened, what is happening, to a generation of children who would most likely grow up lesbian, gay or bisexual if not raised on genderbread fairytales./1of2 https://t.co/O8N5ATIXc4

We need to protect lesbian and gay kids (because big LGBTQ won't). https://t.co/RwKi0hD6lO
