- Can schools keep parents in the dark? No, ADF that would be inhumane. We should keep them in sunlight!

Being transgender isn’t contagious, but acceptance is, and the parents are terrified of it. The only thing we’re pushing is acceptance.
Acceptance would be ideal
OH NO HOW DARE YOU TRY TO MAKE ME A TOLERANT DECENT HUMAN BEING!!!!! THIS IS MURICA AND I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE AN INTOLERANT ASSH*LE, AND I *WILL* PERSONALLY SUE YOU FOR TRYING TO TAKE AWAY *MY* RIGHTS TO BE AN INTOLLERANT PEICE OF SH*T /s
@@milesthemothman7650 yess like I’m happy that I always had that feeling that by parents beliefs where wrong and now I’m 13 and know that people should be able to do and be what they want because I saw this one analogy that explains it perfectly it’s if you tell someone from birth till when they are older that red is green and green is red when you tell them it’s the other way around they are just not gonna believe you
It’s sad that we’re pushing tolerance at all. Tolerance is the BARE minimum. Trans lives are valuable, meaningful, and deserve more than just to be “tolerated” they deserve respect and kindness and love. And it’s sad that we have to riot and protest and fight for so much less than basic human respect for human rights. Tolerance is only the temporary goal.
that's so beautiful and true. if we can get people to tolerance, they can get to acceptance.
My stepdad said Disney shouldn’t have gay canon characters because it’s “ shoving sexuality in their face”. i was like 👁👄👁 straight is a sexualityyyyy
update for anyone still seeing this: he cheated on his wife (my mother)… he’s a pastor. what gave him any room to speak????
Ppl seem to forget this like saying being straight is normal what if at first men where with men and being straight was weird
When it comes to the Dumbledore shit I agree w ur dad. That shit was ridiculous and was literally virtue agenda signaling. Gay characters are fine but not when it’s continually shoved in your face that characters are gay, which unfortunately happens all too often and detracts from the story a lot. Read Ready Player Two and you’ll get what I’m saying, you can’t go 50 pages without being told something about race relations or transgenderism or LGBTQ or whatever. I’m bisexual and that shit was still too much. But yeah, having gay characters is totally fine, just not when it’s their entire character.
@@kxndyyy It is never mentioned in the books that dumbledore is gay so I don't think he is an example of bad representation.
Like he has a personality and is another ordinary human being. He has bad sides like every human being. I don't get where you are coming from.
I feel like homophobic people forget that being straight is also a sexuality and they don’t understand the irony of saying that ”homosexuality is forced everywhere”. Like so is heterosexuality?
@@stella-pp6tn I am starting to get that vibe too.
Like there is a newly created character called Rell (I should have clarified she is from League of Legends) who just happens to be openly bi. She nevers goes "I'm bi". The only reason we know this is because she has thirsty dialogue both towards male and female characters.
Yet people claim she is forced. Like how? She is a character written to be a perfectly normal being that happens to be bi and poc. She goes through training and Riot has never said "oohhh look a bi character because we are so woke" (they never even brought it up as I said we only know due to character dialogue and never treated her like a special character because of her race and sexuality) .
She is written like a normal being who deserves equal treatment like representation is supposed to be done.
She is nothing like Rey from star wars (and as a girl I can go on an entire rant about why she is a bad example of how representation is supposed to be done).
I am starting to think they are starting to use the bad things Disney and other companies have done as an excuse.
I haven't even gone through all the stupid things people have said about Rell while comparing her to Rey and other bad representations Disney has done.
Thanks Disney.
They act as if the teachers are coming up to them and asking "Hey kid want some estrogen?"

"Showing lgbt people will influence kids to become lgbt"
No, it won't, because cishet people have tried influencing lgbt people to be cishet and guess what *it didn't work.*
The self portrayal in this is frustrating.
Then why is my poor cousin confused and slightly revolted when she kissed another girl. She is shy and wants to fit in with society but when society becomes homosexual she will feel as though she must do as her friends do. She told me she was groomed into kissing her female friend because her friend didn’t understand that she wasn’t completely into her. But due to my cousin’s personality she felt obligated to humor her best friend.

@@DrawinskyMoon that means she's straight
you're welcome
@@DrawinskyMoon Mate, shitty people exist. Your story isn't any different than if an asshole dude groomed her into kissing him. That doesn't mean society is forcing homosexuality on people.
It is easier to influence corruption for it glitters in gold than it is to influence purity for only at the end does it truly become gold.
I a cis girl has never had a teacher come to me and be like "hey kiddo wanna be a boy, come on be a boy" how weird, it's almost as if teachers don't force kids to be trans

Did you notice how all the women or female presenting people in this ad wear skirts and dresses. Like this screams conservative christian.
More conservative than the Muslim country I live in lol.
@@nejadsalialam9517 i live in a muslim country and that's so true
@@stephanietanner9509 as another Muslim country resident, can extra confirm
I’m not like other Christians, I’m a ✨conservative✨
As someone who was Christian i can confirm that they consistently have a dress code where you have to dress with the gender you are born. There was a really great education opportunity for me, but because i was female i had to sit in the back, be quiet, and wear a dress. It was enraging. Yeah, this is screaming conservative.
I'll try to explain it with shirts:
There are blue shirts and pink shirts. There are also purple shirts but they have been hidden. Babies usually come with one of these 3 shirts on. Parents believe the colors of the baby's shirt is the only one they can wear and the only one they are allowed to wear. But sometimes there are some problems, like a baby that was supposed to be given a blue shirt had received a pink one instead or the shirt simply doesn't feel right to the child. The children later discover there are shirts with other colors they can try, but the parents hid them because they thought if they see them they will want to put them on and keep them. But that stupid because if they have no problem with the color of their shirt and like it, there is no reason they would want to change it. Also, it's not that the children changed opinions and now like another shirt better, they didn't like their original shirt because it simply didn't fit and wasn't meant for them, they liked another shirt all along, they just didn't know it existed.
Also, you don't become a horse when you see one, then why would it be different with a certain type of human being?
can i use this anology pls?

@@enayaganguly4687 Hahahaha your language is so stupid.
Imagine suing a school because your child wasn’t comfortable with coming out to you first 🤦♂️
RIGHT
The great irony here is that the entire situation of the parents suing the school would probably still not make it dawn on them that the zealousness of them suing the school for supposedly "manipulating their child's gender identity" is both part of, and a sign for, the very problem that made the child hesitant or even reluctant to come out to them first.

"parents should be able to trust teachers"
Well, kids should be able to trust their parents to not abuse them for their identity

I’m transgender and I went to a Christian school. Does this mean my Christian teachers influenced me into becoming transgender?
Most definitely. /s
Totally
yeah
yeah, that's interesting.... i was forced to live in the wrong identity both in my house and school bc of their "christian beliefs", wonder who there is to blame for my transgenderism.... mustve been my cishet friends i was first out to!
I’m bi and I went to a Christian private school and I can completely say they did this
Oh no! Children are being called by their preferred pronouns and are keeping it from people who could potentially hurt them! How terribly terribly awful!
“I can’t abuse my child anymore😢. I want to keep my child getting abused😡!!!”
Oh no! That is indeed very concerning
Well..I gotta say. Some children might believe that they're actually a boy trapped in a girls body even though they like being a girl só.. I kinda Confused.
@@Butter000 it’s normal for kids to explore their identity, if they aren’t actually trans then they’ll grow up with it

Lets say a teacher gets married, their students will refer to them as their new last name. So how is this any different from calling a teacher or a student by a different name or pronoun
Edit: my friend is going through something like this, school hadn't started when I commented this, and we even have kids go by nicknames at our school and they have no problem with that so I don't see the problem with calling them by their new name and pronouns
Factssss
I mean, for me, i don't use deadnames, but uh, sometimes i'm used to the old last name, so i keep using that
“It isn’t but” Exactly it isn’t so shut the fuck up
Easy, some people are hateful shitheads
Right? People make no sense.
The parents don't seem to realize the fact that the child is hiding From THEM. They're the bad guys but they don't see it.
sometimes, but not always. I had a lot of people I was afraid to tell surprise me with being really accepting when I finally came out. my trans friends often have had similar experience to mine.
@@morrisnakes yeah, but it's still sad since acceptance is rarely guaranteed
@@digitalcyclone7218 I agree but my point is that the parents are not always the bad guys, sometimes there is unfounded fear.
@@morrisnakes i mean, i wouldn't really say it's unfounded.
not all parents are assholes, but it is a very real possibility to be disowned by a seemingly loving parent JUST for coming out as LGBT.
@@digitalcyclone7218 I guess unfounded was the wrong word because yes, you are correct. Certainly not the parent doing anything wrong some of the times though.
Like my son hid his sexuality and feelings about gender from me for years and it had nothing to do with me, it was his own shame based on other hateful people in his life. He has always known for a fact I would be supportive.
They only mad cause teachers accept their child more then they do.
Why is that so true tho
So True lol-
🤣🤣🤣
I don’t even think the parents fighting against it are parents of trans children. They are parents of children that are afraid teaching their children about trans people will put ideas in their kids heads to think they might be trans. But the policies just say they will help families of children that are trans or non-binary etc..doesn’t say anything about “exposing” children to teaching children about trans identities..so I don’t understand what their problem is with the policy. The policy is what any parent would want, supporting the child and the family. I highly doubt they would leave the parents in the dark about _anything_ and it’s a horrible assumption and true fear mongering. As if the parents would be completely incapable of knowing their young child. I mean, I suppose very neglectful parents _might_ be clueless...but sounds like the only people that would have an issue are people that are transphobic and have a problem with their child being trans. But to come full circle..the parents that were addressing these policies weren’t even parents of trans children...lol....people need to stay in their fucking lane and focus on their own problems! I do think it’s fair to acknowledge that their fear comes from a place of ignorance, and a lot of parents fear that their child will have a harder life (and all people fear what they do not know/understand), and I do think that is something all people need to be mindful of..and something that needs to be addressed in society and within communities.
Spittin facts here
As a transgender guy that has socially transitioned, my teachers didn’t openly approve of social injustices or issues. Only one of my teachers I have has so far has called me my preferred pronouns, one out of 15 teachers I have had so far.
Quackity
As a non-binary person who first came out as trans two years ago, I totally understand. Only ONE teacher has called me by my preferred pronouns in the past two years, and that same teacher was also the only one who even asked us students what we'd like to be referred to in her class on the first day of school a couple weeks ago

But after she came out to her parents they burned her trans flag called her slurs the whole deal. Her grades dropped out of stress and being so upset at home. So yeah.

thank you very much! school should be a good and safe space for kids growing up, it might even be the place they feel the safest. teachers in high school knew i was trans (even way back in 2013/2014) but the students didn't so they tried their hardest to keep me stealth for my own safety and comfort by simply using he/him and Sam
@@SupraMan38 it’s honestly not a difficult thing to do and it really upsets me to hear about teachers not doing this!! i also think that because i’m young, students feel more comfortable talking to me, so i hear a lot of their stories/feelings/frustrations. but i will say that things are soooo much better than they were back when i was in high school (i graduated in 2013).
Where i am the teachers are legally not allowed to.
For example, my history teacher is constantly pissed pff by his. She apologises to my friend each lesson afterwords (his parents wont let them change his name/pronouns on the system). You can see her cringe each time she uses his dead name and sometimes just gets so annoyed with it that she will say 'person sat next to charlie' cause shes just so fed up with this bullshit.
Like how hard is it lo let teachers use the right name and pronouns
@@Charlie-yq8hu oh my gosh, that’s insane!!! like, it’s just a name, it’s truly not that big of a deal. i have students that go by their middle name or a shortened version of their name...how is it any different? i’m so sorry that your friend has to deal with that. :/

My elementary school introduced me to firefighters and taught me fire safety. I learned to trust and respect firefighters, but I did not become one myself. If kids learn about trans gender people they will do the same as I did for firefighters. Learn respect, but not become confused in what they are.

This is the long one, but they did a short for every couple I think
My kid came out as transgender halfway through the second grade. Her teacher told her that she was a liar constantly. The principal told her that because she was confused, she was only allowed to use the bathroom in the main office. She was getting beat up nearly every day by the kids at school and no one stopped them. They did not protect her at all. The principal even implied that it was my fault and that she was getting what she deserved. I left a message with the district about this and possibly suing because it was a completely unsafe environment. I got a call back within 2 hours of my message and the district liason for that school came out to my house to personally apologize. They pulled my daughter out of that school immediately and fired the teacher. I found out that my district has policies for dealing with transgender students and the school refused to use them. They transferred my daughter into a new school and she gets to live as a girl. She is never dead named, she gets to use the girls bathroom, she gets to be herself. Turns out that there are quite a lot of transgender students in every school here. For safety reasons, the individuals do not get pointed out unless they choose to. But if a student chooses to be out with other transgender students, there are lunch clubs for them to talk to each other. It's a beautiful thing.
But I'm always weary because of these bigoted and hateful ads. It reminds me of when the principal said "look, these kids go home and they tell their parents *x* is trans and the parents are instructing them to come back the next day and beat the gay out of him, and there is no way we can stop them. It's what their parents taught them. Maybe you should make him stay a boy, or would certainly be easier for him"... God I f*cking hate that woman...
I'm so sorry that happened to you...
But, thank you for being such a nice and supportive parent to your daughter :) There needs to be more people like you
❤️
I'm glad that you brought it up to the district and your daughter was pulled out of that horrible school and put into a better and more accepting one.
That school sounds like hell on earth! So happy your daughter is somewhere caring and kind now.
That's so sad to hear, I'm glad you were able to get her into a better more accepting school, and thank God that teacher got fired. Someone who can't accept children for who they are, whether they're lying, telling the truth, going through a phase or whatever, should not be in charge of them. When I was in middle school people in my life constantly told me that being trans was a phase and nowadays I struggle a lot with talking about it and it took me a great deal of work to come out to my mom because she also insisted it was a phase. Whereas my dad 100% supported me and him and my step mom knew that whole time. Them and a couple of my friends are pretty much the only people I feel safe around and often times I'll still dress as a male and leave my purse in my car and dead name myself because I'm just conditioned to be ashamed of myself and I just can't help it really
to the "psychologically unhealthy" point: it's also psychologically unhealthy to live in denial of your true self with zero validation from the external world.
!!!!
I’m not trans but I agree. Being Bi but thinking of Adam and Eve, I was so ashamed of thoughts. I thought I was abnormal and I needed to be ashamed to find women pretty. It is so damaging to deny how you are feeling and keep it locked away. I still had people’s support but I still can relate to your statement regarding denying your true self. Stay safe everyone.
preach!
pin thisssssss
I agree with you! But ask yourself: why we need a certain type of body to be valideted? Why we can't be our true and best self without hormones and surgeries?
"Transition leading to isolation" is caused by people refusing to accept the person, not the transition itself. I was isolated socially until I came out. Now I've found my people, and I feel accepted-- but at home I'm deadnamed, misgendered and scoffed at, which is pushing me away from my parents and causing so much stress. I was really close to my mom before. Now she's making it hard to be, because she tries to pretend I'm someone I'm not.
Sorry, I know how it feels. Was forced to come out as nonbinary and my mom cried while my dad said 'maybe if you still feel that way when your 18'
“You *will* outgrow dysphoria”- yes they hopefully will, because they will transition/do what they need to do to be happy and be the beautiful kings/queens/rulers that they are! Happy pride!!
they act like kids aren't even people. like adults are the only ones who have thoughts and can make decisions. it's just weird.
edit:
me: children are, in fact, human beings with thoughts and emotions.
some of y'all: >:(
*Thomas had never heard such facts*
Its almost as if their projecting the fact they want they want to control kid's thoughts
children should be allowed to be kids... if they decide to take hormones at that age there is really no going back... the damage is irreversible, if a boy decides they want to stay a boy the hormones could permanently effect the size of his nether regions, can cause infertitility issues etc.... i understand it is easier to start them when young but at what cost if they decide its really not what they want further down the line? is it possible they were just masculine or feminine males/females? i was a masculine female as a child im sure i wouldve been confused if i was exposed to all of this trans positivity. You really think children have the maturity to make adult decisions that affect them for the rest of their lives?
@@impendingeuphoria8802 that's not at all what I'm saying. I don't mean 'give small children hrt.' I mean, a child is a human being who can pick their own name and pronouns. a child is a person who can think for themself. the video was acting like the only people in that scenario making decisions and having thoughts were the adults- like the kids were just sat there along the ride. I think that's strange.
@@worshipwormking2327 well yeah im not against things like accepting how they want to be addressed, i think what a lot of ppl are against is giving kids hormones or suppressing puperty- its a BIG deal... and many kids are being treated with these hormones... some parents can push it on their children as well.... and im not coming from a place of hatred, if you really want to be a different gender by all means do it... but when it comes to children taking drugs that have permanent ramifications i really think we should think about this more... even if hypothetically a boy goes on the hormones and wants the gender surgery later in life it is possible their penis is way too small due to the estrogen and puperty blockers he took, so then they have a more complicated surgery having to find tissue somewhere else
Shouldn’t these parents be more concerned that their parenting style is making their child feel that they have to hide their true self? Instead of being annoyed that the school has a confidentiality policy
Kids are supposed to feel safe telling anything to their parents 🤷♀️
Exactly!
People like this seem to think that becoming a parent gives you some sort of divine knowledge about what’s best for your kids in every single area.
Ahahaha, my mom always tells me that I shouldn't have any secrets with her. Like, if I told you I was pan, i'd be homeless within 5 minutes
The same type of people also think that they have the right to dictate every decision for their children, from their college decrees to their significant other.
"Children grow out of dysphoria by puberty" I think it's a little late for me, then.
But for real, I only considered that i could be trans at 11 or 12, when I hit puberty. Before that, I kinda just dressed in whatever people expected me to dress in, whatever my family wanted me to look like, because I was a child and didn't question what adults said. When I started dressing more masculine and having some of my friends use pronouns that weren't she/her to test it out, I realized how uncomfortable I had been this entire time and that I was actually trans, which was a nightmare considering my conservative family and city.
Yep I did too.
I feel that… I never questioned why I didn’t like my voice, why my name sounded strange to me or why my chest made me uncomfortable before I did some research about LGBTQ+ at the age of 16, almost out of puberty you can say.
This topic really infuriates me. Why? Because when I was 15 I knew I was trans and I told my teacher, who called the counselors office. When they called me over, the mean lady asked me why I told my teacher that. I replied with "I don't know." and that was the end of it. I don't know if they told my dad (who is very transphobic) but this topic was left untouched for TWELVE years. I'm 27 now. I'm STILL trans. I lost so many years of my life living a lie. Now I'm a fucking adult and I can't afford the medical care that I need, that I could've had access to as a teen. My life literally fucking went down the drain in depression and dysphoria and now I'm 27 and my life has literally changed. What if that counselor would've been kind to me? What if I had the information I needed when I needed it? What if I would've had someone to help me understand what was happening? But I didn't. The school did NOTHING. My parents and family denied my identity, and now here I am. I want to scream but I can't.
Aw I'm so sorry that happened to you. I hope you will one day receive the medical care you desire. Medically transitioned or not you're 100% valid!
I'm so sorry. Schools need to have policies that support and protect trans kids, it's difficult enough being trans without your school also discriminating against you just because you're different. Thank you for sharing your experience, because it's important to talk about it
you know, if parents just ACCPETED their trans child, there would be no need for the policy. imagine that. parents accepting and loving rtheir child unconditionally. mindblowing i know.
Yeah, I wish that was more common 😔
woah woah woah you're going WAY too far on that one! hOw CoUlD yOu!
The world if parents accepted their child: *Shows a utopia*
I agree with everything except the unconditional love part. Unconditional love is a rather flawed concept that enables toxic behavior/relationships, especially when it comes to parent-child relationships.
Parents don't have the responsibility/obligation to love their children unconditionally, what they have to do unconditionally is to prepare them for the outside world while making sure that they have a good quality of life, at least until they're ready to "leave the nest".
When you bring a living thing to existence, your responsibility isn't to love them (since love is conditional by nature), it's just to ensure that their life is as good as it can be.
Your parents shouldn't demand you to love them, and neither should you demand love from them, and same thing with your children (if you have them). All both parties should demand is the basic respect they deserve as human beings.
Anyways, that's just my point of view and you're free to disagree.
@@thefurry7165 no parent should love their kids no matter what. Kids need to know they are loved. Without love, kids grow up feeling like they're not worthy. Parents should absolutely love their kids unconditionally.. if they can't do that they shouldn't have kids.

YOU DARE?
Sorry. My students' identity is THEIR identity. The big question is: "Why is your kid afraid to tell you about themselves?"
Most likely, there is a real concern that they will be greeted with no acceptance, no support, or even open hostility (This is not always the case in every situation, but it's definitely a concern AND a trend today). In my opinion, a child knows their identity better than their parents do, so it's the child's decision what they want to share at home.
And before you say "but it's my kid and I have the right to know...", STUFF IT. It's not about YOU -- teachers & counselors are there to support and protect the children, not make you feel better about exerting control over your kid. We know the stats of suicide rates among LGBTQ+ students, and that doesn't happen because schools support children in being themselves.
The toxic trash that produced this transphobic/homophobic video need to go back to church -- apparently they missed the part about "Loving your neighbors as you would love yourselves ".
Gosh, say it louder for the people in the back. This is some honest truth.
Thank you for being the teacher so many people needed
You, sir, i like you
The last paragraph about loving your neighbors as you would love yourselves. Exactly.
I’m sure that no ones going to see this, but can I get some advice on something from you guys? I told My 6 year old sister about the LGBTQIA+ community. I told her that it’s okay if she loves a girl, and I told her about when people are transgender. I didn’t go into too many specifics, but it was simple things such as “Actually they are not a boy or a girl. That person is non-binary” when referring to an NB. She grasped the concept easily and now defaults to they/them pronouns instead of guessing. I was playing barbies with her one night and she made her family have two moms. (Totally okay, right?) Well my mom saw. She told me to not expose her to that because she doesn’t want my sister to grow up thinking it’s okay to marry one of her friends. She claims to be a solid ally, but says that she won’t go to a pride parade to support her transgender cousin. She won’t celebrate or be proud that someone’s gay because “It’s a hard life and no one should be forced to live like that.” She also said that if her cousin “cut off his balls and got breast implants, he still wouldn’t be happy with himself. (idk their actual pronouns because my mom always misgenders people. Just said he because I’m quoting my mom. My mom constantly uses her cousin’s birth name and pronouns) She also talked about how being gay isn’t a choice for some people, but some people choose it just because they’re kinky. She says that when people are really gay, you can normally tell from how they were in their childhood.
So I guess the thing that I need advice on a couple of things:
1. How do I make sure my sister still knows it’s okay, even when my mom says it’s not?
2. Is there a way to educate my mom and help her treat her cousin with more respect?
3. I am gæ yk and idk if my mom would accept me because I liked guys when I was younger.
*note my mom is Mormon but comes from a conservative family. My dad also comes from a conservative family but was raised catholic and is now agnostic.
for one thing, MAJOR kudos to you for taking the initiative and teaching her that this kind of thing isn’t wrong, and that it’s okay if she isn’t cis or straight herself. MAJOR kudos, especially if your mother doesn’t appear to understand the idea of being a good ally.
to answer the first question, just...keep telling her so. every time your mother says something to the effect of what you quoted, remind your sister in private that what your mother says comes from a place of ignorance. it isn’t because being LGBTQ+ is genuinely wrong, it’s because some people just don’t understand that people are born this way and unable to change it because of that. and make her aware that you will stand beside her, no matter what your mother says.
for the second...I don’t know. continue to correct her on your cousin’s pronouns; find what their preferred pronouns are and use them and their preferred name, even if your mother insists otherwise. don’t give in on that front, and if your mother insists on misgendering them and deadnaming them, just keep using their name and pronouns. they will thank you later for standing up for them.
for the third, I unfortunately don’t believe telling your mother is a good idea. at least not now. your mother appears to be in a very hostile frame of mind, and I personally worry that informing her of your identity may put you in danger. keep a close circle of friends on-hand as a support system, and talk about it with them. a good support system will help you through it, even if you can’t disclose the subject to your mother. for some parents, finding that their child is not what they thought can cause them to backtrack and reconsider, but for some, it can lead to sometimes lethal consequences.
above all, stay safe. just know that you are valid in your identity, however you identify, and make sure your *sister* knows that she will at least have you around and that you will have her back if she finds that she isn’t what her mother wants her to be.
i wish you both the best of luck, and the same to your cousin. please, take care. 💙

"She says that when people are really gay, you can normally tell from how they were in their childhood."
Ah yes, because being super hyper is a symptom of gayness
I have this exact issue with my little sister, only I started to tell her crumbs of information when she was older and I knew she would understand (we were raised super fundamentally Christian). I'd say the best thing to do would be to explain to her that some people aren't as accepting as the 2 of you and she needs to be on the lookout for when she encounters a person like that, whether to protect herself or others.
It’s bothers me that people generally think a child can’t understand their sexuality or gender identity. I knew my sexuality by the time I was 8 and fully understood it. It’s not that they don’t understand, it’s that they can’t articulate it and when they do, they’re told it’s a phase.
Dakota McCoy lol I had such a strict life I legit didn’t even KNOW I COULD kiss girls until one of my friends decided to do it with me lol (it is a strange relationship I know, this all happened when I was about 10 lmao) so yea that’s the story of my slow realisation that I am, in fact, a lesbian
@@The-Busy-Beeeee when I first realized I was bi I was about 8. I remember having a “boyfriend” at 8 and him moving away and shortly after developing a crush on my girl best friend. I remember getting out my little tablet and googling (specifically) “What does it mean when you like girls and boys?” A bi flag popped up and little 8yo me was like “Well ig I’m bisexual” The best part is, you could’ve asked me about it I would’ve told you or anybody else who asked because idk people held negative opinions on lgbtq+ people. I thought I was just (for a lack of a better word) normal.
Even though I didn't know the words "non binary" or "gender queer" when I was 8, I still knew I wasn't a girl. I would identify as "tom boy", the closest term that felt right to me at the time.
Dakota McCoy well I mean you are perfectly normal, just because people have negatives views on who YOU love (I mean it’s none of their business tho haha) doesn’t mean you are not “normal” you are normal that’s the best part

The source for the "most trans kids grow out of it" includes masculine girls, feminine boys, and children who don't fit into strict gender roles, as transgender children. So essentially the researchers included little girls who like trucks into the trans category. Also, rather than studying the children, they simply asked the parents how THEY felt about their child. Most trans people don't grow out of it, gnc people aren't inherently trans, and that study refused to understand that.
@Oaktree bigotry usually comes packaged with idiocy.
@Precious Losttale It's not like these types of people are going to use any source other than what they pull out of their ass. Their argument falls apart if they bother with what you said they should do.
that source also only categorises people who came back to the same gender clinic for treatment as "persisters" not taking into account that some trans people might move to a different gender clinic after the first appointment or that someone might visit a clinic but not receive a dysphoria diagnosis and therefore not come back.

I live in a red state, so all of these rules about preferred pronouns are nada. I myself am not transgender, but there is a rule at my school about teachers not being aloud to used preferred pronouns.
If a kid has enough trust in the teacher to tell them that they are trans instead of their own parents, that says a lot about the parents in that situation

Luckily enough, any reasonable person should be able to identify that there are conservatives, not just cis people in general. Otherwise, they'd need to realize that.
the way she emphasises HIS and HER feels like a slur. and im cis i cant imagine how much that must make yalls skin crawl
this ad is basically saying "yeah we're gonna trans your kid's gender and you can't do anything about it" and that is so fucking hilarious to me
on a much more serious note, it's people and companies like this that have caused me to be very uncomfortable with therapists and psychologists. when i was first diagnosed with depression, i started seeing a psychologist about 30 minutes away. it seemed fine at first, but shortly after, i started questioning my gender, as i realized that being called a girl (or being referred to with feminine terms in general) was making my depression worse. I didn't fully understand what gender was at that moment, and decided to try and experiment with some labels to see which one fit me the best.
the first label i tried out was genderfluid. for a while, i thought it fit, so naturally, i thought that's what i was. i was told all about the doctor/patient confidentiality regarding minor patients, and was told that legally, my doctor wasn't allowed to repeat anything i told them in private without my permission (or if it would threaten my life or the life of another person). however, my doctor didn't give 2 shits about that confidentiality, and decided to out me to my parents at the end of a visit. i started freaking out, and saw that my mom had started crying. was she crying because she was upset that i felt like i couldn't come to her with this big secret? *NO.* she was crying because she didn't know who i was anymore, saying that she felt like she was losing her daughter. my dad was pretty much silent the entire conversation.
after that, i went straight back into the closet, and shortly after, I stopped going to that psychologist. I continued to question my identity, but much more secretive now, and only looking at different labels on a secret tumblr account i had made. my depression got worse, even going to the lengths of hurting myself, but i hid it as best as i could (which was pretty damn well, tbh), because there was no way i was going back to that horrid excuse of a doctor.
it's been around 7-8 years since i saw that psych, and luckily, i'm doing much better now. i've since gone to a few other psychologists and therapists, but i still have a hard time trusting them, even as an adult. I haven't deliberately harmed myself in around 5 years, and my journey of finding the right gender label seems to have come to an end, as i have been identifying as agender for a year or so now! i'm currently the happiest i have ever been in a long time, and thankfully, my parents are now supportive (my dad more so than my mom, but still).
just realized how long this comment is now, so i'm gonna wrap it up here. to all the trans, nonbinary, and questioning kids: it's okay to want to explore your identity before making it public for the rest of the world to see. it's okay to try out different labels. your gender (or lack thereof) is your own. don't let anyone take that away from you🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️
hey!!! you are amazing! be you! because you rock!! I hope you have a wonderful life ❤
I'm so sorry you had to go through that shit, I would've been fucking terrified if I was ever outed, also agender and I'm glad to find a fellow here, we're a bit hidden fsr and it's hard to find representation or just an openly agen
also went to therapy and dealt with depression and anxiety in my late childhood/teens, and honestly I'm glad I didn't come out to my therapists first-- I don't think they'd understand or even know how to deal with it lmao
I know this isn't healthy but I just let it boil until I felt I had my sexuality/identity figured out enough and was safe enough to spit it out
So, I'm a parent. Here's my opinion on this ad: it's the biggest bullshit I've ever seen. While I don't really like the idea of schools hiding things from parents, at the same time, as you pointed out, it has to happen. What about when kids are being abused at home and the school calls Child Protective Services? They don't have to tell the parents ahead of time they're doing that, and last time I checked no one questions that. That and, as a parent, if my son was hiding something that important to them from me, I'd have to question what I was saying or doing to make him feel uncomfortable with letting me know how he feels. And brainwashing? Really? I mean, kinda hypocritical of them to say, considering churches are always saying you have to 'teach them young' when it comes to the bible. To really think kids are going to be 'converted,' like being transgender is some belief system, is just the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. It shows just how ignorant these people are and just how little they actually know about how being transgender actually works.
L3N0R4 L4N3 you.. OMFG YOU ACTUALLY GET IT OH MY GOD YOU GET THAT I ISNT THE KIDS FAULTS AHH YOUR AWESOME
If your child is hiding something it's not always necessarily anything you've done. My mom was incredibly accepting when I came out but I still just didn't really want to. I kinda knew she would be accepting but that whole anxiety and crippling trust issues nonsense said "what if?". That being said, you sound wonderful and I'm glad you don't just blindly hate because different.
Sadly there are tons of people (parents, ofc) who have an issue with/question schools who allow kids to call ACS. My own parents and many BIPOC parents tell their children to never ever call ACS on them, no matter what, unless we never wanna see our parents again. Thank God my parents are better now and aren’t abusive anymore, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the same kind of parent that would be upset about a school hiding their kid’s trans identity from them.
you're an amazing parent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU! and this comment was *amazing* *PREACH!!!*

No-one thinks “a woman in trousers” is as shocking or (supposedly) repulsive as “a man in a dress”
And no-one would legitimately think that women becoming men is somehow taking away men's rights
Because transitioning into a man in a society that holds masculinity far above femininitiy (femininity as weak) ... as to a man who'd want to display totally in the feminine! It's why the "church" is more obsessed w/gay males (who they see as feminine) & don't really mention butch/masculine women. Also, many (like incels) don't believe a woman POV is valid. Women don't really know what they're doing & need a man to guide them, so anything they say about themselves is incorrect, because a man didn't say it for them. Well, in the words of Miley Cyrus "it's my mouth/I'll say what I want to" & further more I MEAN IT. I'm asexual & cis-gender\she/her by the way.

As someone who once opened up to a teacher about how my uncle was abusing me at home (when we were talking about bullying and I asked if it counts as bullying if an older relative is doing it), which led to the principal's office calling my home, trying to get in-touch with my grandma (my legal guardian), only for my uncle to answer the phone and hear about it, I know there are a lot of instances in which kids might want teachers and staff to keep things from their parents (or guardians or whatever) and for good reason. I genuinely thought my uncle was going to kill me after he came charging into the living room to confront me about that call. Only reason he didn't hit me was probably because people knew about it then and he could get in even more trouble. So it isn't hard to imagine what kind of fear a child of an equally abusive parental figure who's also extremely transphobic or homophobic might react to the school outing their gender or sexual orientation to their family without their consent.

they can't seem to understand that if a child comes out to their school and not to you as their parent, it's your fault, not the school. obviously your child doesn't trust you enough in that sense, and as Sam said, they know that you'll react badly. that's why they don't feel comfortable coming out to you.

@Oaktree yes! i totally get what you mean. i am trans also, and ive come out to my parents before twice. they were very unsupportive. there was a year of my life in which i genuinely questioned myself- and i wondered if i was just being an attention seeker. my mom even blamed youtube and said that she'd ban me from watching things as they'd "influence" me. ive only got 7 more months to go until im legally able to do everything myself and so im just holding out until then. i wish you all the luck my friend. i believe parents shouldn't put their personal opinions above the love and wellbeing of their child. politics isnt as important as your child's life, if that makes sense
@Oaktree The thing is, why do you have to be absolutely sure? I think there is no problem in feeling like the opposite sex for maybe five years more or less, and then feeling different. I think it's important that everyone treats you and calls you by your preferred name and pronouns and when you're feeling different, nobody shames you or says stuff like "I told you" or "Which is it now".
It's okay to be unsure. It's okay to change. And change again. And I think there has to be a safe space to discover yourself, especially while you're young.
I understand your feelings about doubting yourself and agree, that it is mostly a burden. I just think the world would be a better place if your surroundings would give you the chance to safely make potential mistakes.
I am sorry, it sounds horrible to Phrase it that way, I just can't seem to find a better translation.
I hope you know, that I just want to support you in your feelings and am accepting of whatever you think your gender is. And when you come to the conclusion you feel another way, I will be supportive of that too.
I hope my point came across :/
I agree with you,the only reason i haven't come out to my parent's is all the homphobic dinner jokes and the homphobic slurs is why your kids aren't coming out
Precisely. The other part is the children themselves, no matter how young, have a right to privacy. If they want to keep secrets from the parents, they have the right to, and it's in no way infringing on the parents' rights. It's not the teacher or the school's fault if the teacher is their "trusted adult" we hear about as kids. If the child sees this teacher as a safe space and sees the school as a safe space, the parents need to reevaluate their parenting skills, because they've done something severely wrong if the child finds comfort in a teacher rather than a parent. That's the parents' fault, and that's the simple truth. Safety should be the school's number one priority, and coming out is a scary thing because of the low tolerance of today's society. The child could be kicked out of the house, beaten, or worse by their parents. The kids have a right to keep that information confidential with the school if they so wish, *as their right.* Experimentation with pronouns or names is doing no harm to the child, so there's absolutely nothing wrong with what that county was trying to do.

This reminds me of when my mom went to complain to the headmaster when a teacher said being lgbt+ is okay the argument my mom present was that she’s “making kids gay” and saying that thank god her daughter is straight,little does she know…
my school decided to make a rule where a lid can’t change their name unless they have court documents. my school ID has my deadname because they wouldn’t change it. when i asked them i remember feeling embarrassed and sad because i was able to it in the previous year. it’s all because of parents. the transphobic parents started complaining about it
By this logic nothing minors tell a guidance counselor, psychologist, psychiatrist, doctor parent confidentiality shouldn’t exist? The reason they don’t tell you is because you’re abusive and not accepting of them.
yes, in the mind of a conservative christian, the family is the only thing that matters, and for them family have a structure you cannot break, the man is the leader, then comes the mom and the children should not have a voice, no privacy or feelings that diffriates from the family
the best way to control a trans kid is to abuse them mentally and some times physically.. it is a sad reality that in conservative homes is where most trans kids are being abused.. and commit suicide eventually.. yet the parrents blame the left for "corrupting" their kid, I bet you've seen the conservative meme floating around of a pair of legs dangling with thigh high socks on it, to just make fun of trans suicides.. it is sickening
@@LadyZeldaia I hadn't heard of that "meme," and now I think I'm about to cry 😥
thank fuck i have friends lol, i can talk to them at least.
@@aspwillow good for you, not everyone have or need friend

My brain read the “YET” in the title as YEET and I just accepted it
that's also acceptable
As you should
I thought the same thing!
ahhhhhhh julia i found ur comment ahhhhhhh
Yeet the transphobes
At home:charis she/her
At school: Kris they/them
My parents say there are only two genders male and female
Don't listen to them. You are who you are. If you have to hide it because you aren't in an accepting environment, hide it for as long as you can. As soon as you can, get the fuck out of there.
your parents r mean asf, keep loving who you are
As someone who is out when I’m not around my parents, but is deep inside the closet around them - it is really hard to have to repress something that effects me so deeply. But it’s still better than experiencing transphobia and homophobia in my own home. These people need to stop talking about things that they do not understand or experience.
Reasons to be upset: “My child’s teacher taught the children that giraffes are fish and that a dog can consent.”
Not reasons to be upset: “My child’s teacher is teaching the children that different people exist.”
"giraffes are fish"
Dang people are stupid, they're so obviously reptiles
Man what are you talking about? Giraffe are birds.
@@domino-vi6ns Right? They're obviously birds. What have these people been taught?
@@domino-vi6ns bro, what? birds aren't real! those are government drones giraffes are amphibians
@PeriodtPan No way🙄 giraffes are rocks!
they're really acting like this policy is going to lead to their poor, little, cisgender children coming to school and 'contracting the trans'
Thank god for my guidance counselor and making me feel comfortable with my lesbian self enough to eventually come out to more than my 3 best friends
If that was actually how things worked, then I'd be either a boy or nonbinary by now. (I'm a cisgender girl who goes to school with trans kids)
@@allisond.46 what r u talking bout?
i feel like these are the same people who refuse to wear a mask because they don't believe they will get COVID
@@star2b4u I'm creating a hypothetical scenario based on Alex's comment.
If my parents ever tried to sue the school because of this I would speak in court against them..
The fact that you’re child felt afraid to let you know what was happening in their life says enough...
As a trans girl with a school that's helping me come out, it's all my consent
When they say that people outgrow dysphoria but there is so many people coming out in their fifties
@Le Baguette i have seen that too
I mean i do believe that most kids outgrow dysphoria but like isn't that the point? We, as a society, are trying to be more inclusive to the minority, which in this case are trans people.
@@skrttskrtt8355 what does that second statement you made have to do with your question? Not tryna b staticky, genuine inquiry, your comment was a bit confusing for me lol
@@FaerieElethia Like i meant like 80%(or idk but majority) kids outgrow dysphoria. Is that not a fact? Oh god im sorry if its not
And the trans people are not part of those people that do outgrow their dysphoria and therefore are a minority.
But like arent we trying to be more inclusive to everyone nowadays?
Pls correct me if im wrong
Im a child dont butcher me i wasnt taught this in school
@@skrttskrtt8355 loool it’s totally cool! Thank you actually for clarifying, now I understand your point a lot better 💛💗 yeah I think you may be right about that statistic!
The girl in the animation is often seen pulling the skirt. It's almost like they're not comfortable wearing that, and actually is a boy. It's like a hidden transgender message in the video.
Wait conservative women are forced into it??!
So just because a girl doesn't want to wear a skirt means she's actually a transgender boy? That seems like a huge reach.
@@100organicfreshmemes5 You're stale.
@@blacklightredlight2945 Ah, good argument.
@@100organicfreshmemes5 no that isn't what they're saying. they're saying it may be implied through a video that is literally about trans people. jeez.
The moment you said something about the straights being forced down our throats, i got an ad of a scantily clad woman and a muscular man in a speedo. Man perfume ads are weird (i think it was cologne actually)
Some outgrow dysphoria, but it doesn't have to apply to every person with gender dysphoria. Phases do exist, but not everything is a phase
Bats look like birds to an extent, but are they birds?
A platypus lays eggs, something birds do, but does it make them less of a mammal?
Cisgender women can have masculine bodies, but it doesn't make them men
Cisgender men can have wide hips at time, but it doesn't make them women.
