Kids of psychologists are often messed up cause it's a pseudo science cult

100% And increasingly feminized; something like 3/4th of all Psychology majors are female and have been for a couple of decades.

Not only does progressivism sow vast divisions, but the radical and revolutionary nature of these forced initiatives often calls for non-complying families to be ripped apart: just note what happens when parents disagree with “gender-affirming care” for their child. Rather than being designed to communalize society, these initiatives are in fact targeted subversions meant to eliminate opposition.

Ms. Rachel, a hugely popular YouTube channel for kids, invited Dylan Mulvaney on the show. Happy Pride Month!

California Democrats just passed AB1955 out of committee: a law to make it legal for schools to lie to parents. It's the proposed law that the State has been pretending was a law for 11 years: the one that it told schools required them to lie to parents about a child's new public "gender identity" at school, unless the child gave permission to the school to tell his mom and dad. That was a lie. There is no such law.

But that's what the California Department of Education told schools. The California School Board Association distributed parent secrecy policies to school boards that almost all adopted them without question; even conservative school boards. School boards and teachers were then trained by attorneys on how to circumvent the parents. The attorneys misstated the law, creating a privacy right that does not exist. Below you can see that the lawyers recommend creation of a shadow file in an illegal attempt to skirt Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”), the law that grants to parents, not the students, the rights to see and alter their minor student’s education records.

As Miss Maryland And A Military PR Rep, This Man In A Dress Will Interact With Kids ...

While Miss USA is more of a modeling competition and Miss America more of a scholarship and career competition, both also partner with pageants for girls as young as age 4. The adult pageant winners “mentor” these young women. They are obviously role models for these little girls, and thus it matters a lot who they are. ...

So Kennedy will be in close proximity to many children and especially young girls as a Miss Maryland USA pageant winner. It’s another example of how queer politics makes the public square toxic by exposing children as young as preschoolers to sex.

Disturbing decision this week from a federal appellate court on the rights of transgender and nonbinary children to have other children silenced for their protection, but let’s do some background first for purposes of comparison. ...

So 118 years ago, the courts had to respect the certain view of science that the biological differences between the two sexes were absolute, certain, and unvarying, and very much to the disadvantage of women. The restriction of their labor was clearly, therefore, in the public interest. The Science™, you see. Can’t be argued with. The experts had spoken.

Now look at the extraordinary decision in L.M. v. Town of Middleborough, released on Sunday by the First Circuit. (Background here from the plaintiff’s lawyers.)

A middle school student wore a t-shirt declaring that there are only two genders; his school, fearing the devastation that hate speech would cause trans and non-binary students, ordered him to take it off or leave school. First Amendment litigation followed.

The decision from the First Circuit is exactly the territory of the Brandeis brief and the Muller decision. There’s a First Amendment right to speak, sure, but science and medicine warn that there’s a fragile population among us which is much more prone to harm than other populations — and therefore much more in need of protection, which draws a clear scientific limit to the First Amendment. Experts warn us that we need to limit free speech in the presence of children with non-cisgendered gender identity. Page 26, for example, which explicitly references social science...

Students can speak freely, unless they cause negative psychological impact by demeaning another student’s personal characteristics.

Like the Brandeis brief, and like the Supreme Court decision that followed its contours, the First Circuit takes a bunch of statements — trans students will be psychologically harmed by seeing the message on a t-shirt that there are two genders — and accepts them as the thing we know because social science says so.

The Science™, the oracle that issues incontestable decrees. We can see the irony of the courts relying absolutely on the firmly established scientific knowledge that binary sex is certain and inflexible, then relying absolutely on the firmly established scientific knowledge regarding the psychology of transgender and non-binary children — but can the courts see it? (And does it matter at all what the courts are able to see?)

In any event, social science has traveled to edges of the First Amendment and found the place where it stops. It’s a t-shirt that says there are boys and girls.

‘There exists a widespread belief in many Western societies, that wasn’t even considered remotely possible just fifteen years ago, that there are people who fall outside our sexed borders. Though this belief has only become widespread in just over a decade, many people consider vast and rapid changes to our social order to accommodate this belief, compassionate and just.

Billions of years of evolution, and hundreds of thousands of years of human evolution, and the way our societies are organized around our biological realities as male, and female are being promoted as outdated. The overhauling of our societies, has been justified as support for what people call the “trans community.” “Trans,” as most people understand it today, refers to people, who for various reasons, seek to disown their physical reality - that of their reproductive sex. Men with the fetish of autogynephilia, children with autism or other mental and developmental issues, lesbians and gay men and youth reacting to social and internalized homophobia, individuals invested in a science fiction that they can create their own physical realities, youth attempting to rebel against strict boxes for culturally sanctioned sex role behavior, are all being referred to as a community. Corporate propaganda has us thinking these people are part of a cohesive group, one that was initially promoted as having intense body dysphoria, and who are now presented as expressing their true nature.

The “trans community,” like “trans” itself, is a corporate fiction. It is marketing propaganda so extreme, so diffuse, and penetrating, it is functioning like cult indoctrination.

“Trans” is not a type of person. People are biological systems that reproduce themselves through male and female sexes. Drugs and surgeries and/or claiming to be anything other than a male or female person doesn’t change this. People who have disorders of sexual development (intersex conditions), men with fetishes, and people who promote the idea that other cultures historically had names for a third sex don’t change it. Lesbians and gay men, attempting to hide from homophobia, and children who don’t adhere to strict boxes of social behavior for males and females are not a subgroup of humanity. They are humans, male and female all, with varying reasons for attempting to disown their sexed reality, not least of all because they’ve been told they can - repeatedly.

“Trans” is political and corporate power aimed at the next generation, conditioning them to think of themselves as parts instead of integrated biological systems within the larger biological system of our physical reality.

The youth are being conquered, their physicality is being colonized for profit and control of resources, just like so many parts of the planet have been colonized, its rich resources extracted for profit and its inhabitants controlled.’

US judge in Kentucky blocks Biden Title IX rules, says ‘sex,’ ‘gender identity’ not the same thing ...

Coleman and the GOP attorneys general filed the lawsuit in April. At the time, they argued the Department of Education “used rulemaking power to convert a law designed to equalize opportunities for both sexes into a far broader regime of its own making” with the new Title IX regulations. ...

Reeves wrote in his opinion that “the Department of Education seeks to derail deeply rooted law” created by the implementation of Title IX.

“At bottom, the Department would turn Title IX on its head by redefining ‘sex’ to include ‘gender identity.’ But ‘sex’ and ‘gender identity’ do not mean the same thing,” he wrote. “The Department’s interpretation conflicts with the plain language of Title IX and therefore exceeds its authority to promulgate regulations under that statute.”
