Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

So you have a problem with a boy wearing a skirt? What's the issue with that? I assume you think girls shouldn't wear pants then?
No, I have problems with teachers taking kids away from parents at the threat of having CPS called on them, and telling 5year old boys if they wear skirts they'll be happy.
Which teachers have taken kids away? And what's the context for a teacher telling someone they'll be happy if they wear skirts?
The government takes kids away from parents if we don't send them to their re-education institutions
Seattles public school programs to educate 5 year olds on gender identity https://www.seattleschools.org/departments/health-education/lgbtq-programs-curriculum-and-support/list-of-books-by-grade/
Lol. This would be good trolling if it wasn't so stupid.
And continuing to post that link isn't going to make it somehow fit into your delusions.
...What? You're upset that a teacher might tell a child they can wear a skirt if it makes them happy? Or you're upset that CPS might get involved if you abuse your child? I'm confused, it really just sounds like you want the right to abuse your child if they dress in a skirt, and you don't want teachers telling your kid it's fine to do so.
Yes, I don't want teachers having secret meetings with my kids, without my knowledge, telling them to wear skirts. It's weird, inappropriate and absurdly outside of the teachers realm of usefulness to taxpayers.
You sound a little paranoid, my dude. Being unscrupulous with how things are being framed to you when it involves something you find weird is what makes people assume you are a bigot, not that you have "different views". A teacher that tells a student "it's ok to dress how you feel most comfortable" is different from a teacher that tells a student "you ought to dress in girls clothing". And if a student then says "my mom and dad will punish me if I don't wear boys clothes", not only should they, but a teacher is required by law to report that interaction to CPS.
We wouldn't need to teach students about gender if parents weren't actively shaming or punishing their kids in order to force them to perform their sex in a way that makes them feel uncomfortable. That you think of male genitalia when you see a kid dressed in boys clothes is not a problem with the teacher sexualizing them, it's a problem with you sexualizing them.
