What is wrong with telling kids that everyone belongs? That everyone deserves to be here no matter what their shape, size or feelings might be? We are all one in the same and shouldn't be held in contempt because something some stupid person writes in a newspaper or on a message board.

How's your Jewish holiday going? Apparently you've fucked that up too. Quick to preach but not to practice?

Mine went OK ,I got my first uniform I've ever worn and training went fairly well. Already fixed 3 doors, a gate and sent back home due to protocol. They're going to love my heathen ass.

Might have found someone to care for my pooch too. I'm meeting her in another hour or so. I just won't be able to give the dog the love and attention she needs when I go back to my full time wokeness.

"Resources and lesson plans for those who want to teach about gender identity are becoming much more common. Seven states now require that curriculums include LGBTQ topics. The National Sex Education Standards, developed by experts and advocacy groups, name gender identity as one of seven essential topics, alongside puberty, consent, sexual orientation and other subjects. And the federal government recommends that schools include gender identity in their sex education programs.

“There’s years of research that demonstrate that curriculums that include respect for others regarding their sexual orientation and gender identity are more effective,” said Kathleen Ethier, director of the division of adolescent and school health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That’s true not just for LGBTQ students, she said. “When you make a school environment safe and supportive for the most vulnerable youth, you improve the school environment for everyone.”

Opponents argue that teaching about gender identity is driven by liberal ideology and is inappropriate for children, especially young children. Five states, including Florida, ban or limit how teachers can talk about gender identity and sexual orientation, with at least 10 states considering such measures, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Books that feature transgender or nonbinary characters have been subject to numerous ban attempts. positive outcome."
