Well isn't this nice. There is no way that this can be seen as contructed for kids. Children at such a young age should not be taught by the mentally ill. Sickening....
Not only are the homos trying to recruit at earlier age now the gender comfused have a foothold in the public schools. Thank God my kids will be going to private school.
Have you considered home schooling ? They say it isn't just for religious wacko's anymore, but don't let that stop you ! :laugh4:Quote:

Seriously there's nothing wrong with it, children are quite accepting and wont realize anything is wrong with her. Really and there's nothing wrong with this in the first place unless you believe religion and state shouldnt be seperated.Quote:

Calvert School out of Baltamore is an excelent program if you do home school.
On topic, odd. It's ok if he doesn't go on on how great having a sex change is. Probably should mention that sex changes are only a good idea if you have sever issues.
Love how she says 'democracy in action' was 'magnificent'. She would be moaning and complaining if it were the other way, probably.
I find it genuinely amusing how much this bugs you.Quote:

So long as they are not camp and too effeminate, then it is fine.
"Despite criticism from parents, the school board on Monday stood by its decision to allow McBeth to resume working as a substitute teacher." (from the article)
Good for the school board! Occasionally, I see hope for the US.
I'd rather the children were taught tolerance and broad perspective than to have a parent teach them to call homosexuals "homos" and transsexuals "freaks".
in before teh requisite YTMND links.
This is disgusting , 71 years old and still working .
Must have blown the pension fund on the operation .
I find it genuinely amusing how much this bugs you.
Well Goof if you look at this bit.....Not only are the homos trying to recruit at earlier age
I never knew they were recruited , does this mean Dave signed up for the wrong outfit by mistake when he joined the airforce ?
You know what they say about those that shout loudest against things .~;)
Thank God my kids will be going to private school.
Have you considered sending them to military school , I believe the Airbourne are offering special video production studies in their new curriculum .:laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:
I wonder who "recruited" their latest film stars .:director: :cheerleader:
I for one would hate if I'd have to explain to my kids that because some people can't accept the way they were born, they have doctors cut off their johnson and their bodies mutilated to make them look female.
But I guess that I'm just a bigoted primitive, and that it's a good thing to let in our kids on the full spectrum of colorfull minds that we tolerate in our societies :inquisitive:
I don't mind homosexual people, they can teach kids as far as I'm concerned (and explaining homosexuality should have a proper place in sex ed, once they're old enough)
As far as I'm concerned gender changes are unnatural (and I challenge you to argue against that!) and frankly, an obscenity. If people want to mutilate themselves, to each his own I guess but I don't want them near my children at an early age.

Why would you hate to have to explain that?Quote:

Is it the mutilation you have a problem with generally, or is it specifically the mutilation of penises/vaginas that in your view disqualifies a person from teaching school?Quote:

Well, I suppose I can support the school board allowing shim to continue teaching, as long as they don't *gasp* allow shim to fill those impressionable children's heads with stories of evolution! ~;)
I'm actually not sure how to feel about this one, personally, and so I'm kind of glad that it's someone else's problem. Anyhow, I think Kansas has a little something to learn from the schoolboards in Pennsylvania/New Jersey.

You could explain them instead that some people have a rare disease with the name gender dysphoria for which the only cure is a sex change.Quote:

All surgical operations are unnatural. Unfortunately (especially for the involved) they are often the only way to treat diseases. Gender dysphoria is such a case.
And please explain me what this has to do with homosexuals?
If you had a third leg, wouldn't you want it to be cut off? If you would wake up tomorrow with your body being female, wouldn't you want to have your male parts back?Quote:

This person has felt female her whole life. Just her body was awfully wrong.
Just a question, Dave would you have been fine if she hadn't had a sex change (and thus remaining mentally ill) instead of getting herself cured? Are we to keep mentally ill people out of the range of young children for their entire life (independent of treatment)? Considered that up to 30% of people will develope a mental illness at least once in their life, that would make a fine society. And what precisely is the danger anyway? That she will encourage children to be unhappy with their biological sex?Quote:

As long as he do what he`s supposed to do, then there is, of course no problems with this.
does this remind anyone else of South Park?
And Chef would be the one to explain the situation to the children. He could start by singing them a song about a time he was "making sweet, sweet love to his woman."Quote:

If it does, they are not diagnosed as gender dysphoric. That this person got a sex change implies that a team of health care professionals agreed that it is necessary.Quote:

You're missing the whole point.
The point is that people who are in any way sexually different from the mainstream are icky, and worthy of nothing but scorn.
The sooner you get that through your head, the easier things will be for you in the Backroom.
*pats A. Saturnus on the head good-naturedly*
Now, take your crazy little ideas outside and play with the other liberals. You little scamp you...
I have an idea why not say in the name of equaling the genders each semester will be devoted to one of the sexes. i mean the kids are little when I was that age a bear couldve tuaght me and I wouldntve cared.
I'd like to add to this because I find this misleading unless you also touch on the other myriad of quite arbitrary DSM IV labels that are almost always slapped on these folks as well. Saying this operation is a cure for gender dysphoria is akin to saying a bandage is a cure for a severed limb.Quote:

That is a myth about the male to female sex change. The only part of the male genetals that are out right removed in a sex change is the testicles. The penis is inverted to form the new vagina.Quote:

Don't know for sure - but it would make "Lily" a cradle robber since the stated age of Lily was 71.Quote:

====EDIT====
I would prefer anyone with a history of severe mental illness not to be in charge of children or as a role model.
Pretty sure that's not true- there have been cases of "feelings" not developing until puberty or even into adulthood, which is probably the case with this man since he didnt get the procedure until 71.Quote:
