Don’t tell parents if transgender males bunk with daughters

A Maryland school district is instructing teachers and administrators not to tell parents if their daughters are bunking with male students who identify as girls on overnight field trips.

Bob Mosier, chief communications officer for Anne Arundel County Public Schools, says in a training video detailing how to accommodate transgender students that privacy issues regarding the student prevent the district from informing parents about such arrangements.

“So, many of you might be asking yourselves, ‘So I’m at an overnight field trip, and I have student who’s biologically a male, identifies as a female, and we’ve worked with that student and her family, and that student wants to sleep in the dorms, or whatever sleeping arrangements are, with the females,’” Mr. Mosier says in a video of the training session. “They don’t want to sleep in a room by themselves; they want to sleep with the rest of the females. So what do we do?

“And the answer is, they sleep with the females,” he said. “That’s not the easy answer; it’s the right answer. And in some cases, it’s going to cause issues, because … the private information piece doesn’t allow you to share that with parents of all of the other campers. Right? So that’s difficult.”

Writing at The American Conservative, Rod Dreher said the video is “very instructive, though not necessarily in the way the school system intends.”

“This gender insanity is not everywhere, yet, but it’s coming,” Mr. Dreher wrote. “Mark that. If you’re a teacher, administrator, or staffer for a public school system anywhere in the United States, you are going to find yourself sitting in a seminar just like this one day, if you haven’t already. And if you object, you’re a bigot.”

In Iran, you do not get transgender status just because you "identify" as trans. You have to go through a 6 month interview process with a psychologist who confirms that you really are transgender and not just a horny straight boy trying to get easy access to females.

Sleeping quarters have always been segregated by sex for children for a reason. Sex is fixed and binary - male and female.

FFS R10, please don't claim an entire generation's support for something unless you have actual data to support the assertion.

E.g. "Millennials overwhelmingly support marriage equality." Great, there are tons of polls providing evidence of that.

Unless you can provide multiple polls demonstrating millennial support for this specific policy dealing with trans people, you're really just speculating. Generalized expressions of support for "LGBT" mean little. Situations in which the legitimate interests of different groups in society intersect and conflict are where the rubber hits the road. For example, a majority of Americans have supported a woman's fundamental right to choose for years. But a majority of Americans also typically supports specific restrictions on abortion access. These are not in contradiction, because a position on a specific policy does not automatically disqualify one from supporting a larger principle from which that policy derives or the population group it covers.

HBO's VICE Uncovers Gay Iranians Forced to Surgically Change Gender

Hard to believe, but the Iranian government will pay for gender-reassignment surgery to "cure homosexuality."

Offsite Link
by Anonymousreply 31August 27, 2016 6:11 AM

From Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity: Iran’s International Human Rights Obligations, University of Essex, June 2014

2. Sexual Orientation in Iran

Iranian laws criminalize same-sex relations. The only relations recognized and promoted by the State as legitimate are between a man and a woman. In the past, Iranian authorities have denied the existence of homosexuality within the country. However, recent official statements indicate that homosexuality and transgendered individuals have been acknowledged, but only as subjects of illness. Same-sex relations can be punishable by various sentences, ranging from flogging to the death penalty. These laws are different for men or women and distinguished on the basis of which sexual acts have taken place. There is no reference to sexual orientation within the laws but in practice this punishment could apply to acts by gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered (LGBT) persons for engaging in same-sex relations.

Therapeutic treatments and sex reassignment surgeries

Extensive documentation indicates that while same-sex relations (sexual acts) are criminalized, any sexual orientation that is not heterosexual is considered an illness, approached with medical treatments ranging from psychotherapy to sex reassignment surgery. Psychological therapies assess whether an individual can be “cured” of this illness by changing a person’s orientation to heterosexual through therapy. Documentation suggests that where medical professionals consider they have “failed to cure” non-heterosexual preferences, the State eventually encourages individuals to change their bodies by undergoing sex reassignment surgeries. From the State perspective, the outcome fixes the problem: for example, a woman who is attracted to women has become a man who is attracted to women.

Sex reassignment surgeries are common within Iran; Iran is responsible for the second highest number of these surgeries worldwide. In general, the legalization of sex change operations may count as a protection of individuals’ right to express their sexual identity. Yet the surrounding context – criminalization of same-sex relations, consideration of sexual identities as a medical problem, as well as social pressures – indicates that the State privileges relations and attraction between men and women and violates a range of its human rights obligations.

( The pressure placed upon LGBT persons by family members is cited as a significant factor in individuals’ decisions to undergo a sex reassignment surgery. These social pressures may constitute an external factor, outside the policies adopted by the State, that contribute to the prevalence of sex reassignment surgeries within Iran.)

Boys who want to play dress-up full time need safe spaces.

Why should locker rooms, slumber parties, summer camps, and school restrooms, be only for biological females? Statistics say that 1 in 5 females have been/will be sexually abused. Since they'll be face-to-face with an unwanted penis eventually, it's best to start early.

But seriously, these laws make no provisions for the inevitable prankster pervs who will declare themselves female at 9:55am then waltz into the girls' lavatory and whip their dicks out to take a piss and have a look around at 10 o'clock. When the potential (and likely) issue is raised, the pro-trans brigade immediately shouts down concerns as right-wing scaremongering.

My high school did lots of overnight trips. Some were 4 boys, 2 beds and some were dorm/bunkhouses with gang showers. I just can't imagine the lawsuits and the firings. No teacher in their right mind would chaperone trips like this.

Good point, r54. But I think the point being expressed is that a "generalization" is neutral/fine but "overgeneralizing" is bad/unacceptable.

R55, ITA, and thank you for succicently pointing out how I also felt about those posts.

The T advocates pretend that females are not vulnerable around males, and that there is absolutely no difference between male and female hormones and reproductive organs. Female and male are interchangeable... except that no male will ever menstruate or have a baby, and no female will ever forcibly impregnate another female.

Gender trumps sex to them. Gender is everything, and biological sex is meaningless.

It's bizarre to see adults defend this illogic. It really is a cult mentality. Mass delusion.

by Anonymousreply 58August 27, 2016 4:53 PM

R57, even after pre-op...bio sex cannot be changed. It's immutable. Those who try are not the opposite sex...they are Frankensteins.

Seriously, not to be rude. It renders them mostly unfuckable to the masses. These people are mutilating healthy sex organs. If someone wants to mate, why choose someone who is likely sterile? And clearly self-destructive?

Trans did not exist in the 1970s partly because people looked down on cosmetic surgery back then. It was dangerous, expensive and narcissistic. ("Narcissism" was considered a BAD characteristic back then.)

Today, people can better mimic the opposite sex through smoke and mirrors: cosmetic surgery and carcinogenic chemicals they call "hormones". And yes it's true that gender is a social construct, and men and women are more alike than we like to think, so yes it is possible for a man to look like a woman or vice versa.

But people can always sense something is amiss, even with a very "passable" T. I don't know if it's pherenomes or what...the tells are endless and never go away. Life is not a perfectly staged photograph with the right light and angle.

This is so simple. This situation is dealing with minors. That means parents indeed have the right to know and decide upon the sleeping/rooming arrangements of their children when they are away from home for school sanctioned activities.

Some parents might actually give permission, others will not. This is more of a parental right when it comes to their minor children.

Anyone can legitimately identify as another gender. Great. However, the actual physical gender of minors determines sleeping arrangements. That minor children are involved determines who has the authority to make these decisions. The parents.

This is part of adjusting to being Trans as a minor. At legal age they can make their own decisions. Until then parents have the last word. Period.

But the last thing any girl wants is to be accused of sexually assaulting another girl. Please don't pretend that homophobia is not real. Please don't make the false equivalence that girls want to conquer girls for a notch on their belts. Please don't pretend there is a serious concern re: girl on girl rape

A male-to-female transgendered person doesn't typically want to have sex with other females. If the person-is "post-op", then there's no way the kid can get a girl pregnant. If the person is "pre-op", then they probably wouldn't want anyone to see their genitals, much less use them for sex.

Unfortunately it seems like the fetishits push hard for the "I don't have to actually fully transition, just consider my dick a big clit or else". Whereas the younger gay ones are more vulnerable to the trans-mommies (and daddies) who try to get them on hormones early.

It's depressing to think of the mistakes that can happen, and these trans that are really gay men and women get robbed of the chance to actually grow, change, and accept themselves as gay. They have to be straight, and the opposite sex.

Who are the "medical,professionals" who are providing dangerous hormones to minor children for the dubious purpose of changing their "gender"? Parents should be told firmly that children must be made to wait until they are old enough to consent for themselves, no matter what they believe. There will be no way to undo the damage that may be done to these children. It is surprising it is even legal, but it is certainly unethical.

You'd think that GAY MEN of all people were more accepting and open of others. Instead many here are driven by the fearmongering perpetrated by the right. Sad to see.

There is nothing more anti-gay and anti-women than the trans push - it's Joseph Mengele - experiments on kids ruining their lives because of homophobia, a gay cleanse of generations, and forcing men on women and girls. It is wiping out gay rights, wiping out gay people, women's rights, and harming children. That is GROSS, that is NOT ACCEPTING. That is NOT OPEN OF OTHERS. That is the extreme right's DREAM.

IMPORTANT: READ THIS

This is from the Iran country information 2014 UK government

"Failure to undergo surgery creates the perception of homosexuality. Transgender individuals who transgress socially constructed gender expectations without applying to become diagnosed as “certified transsexuals” and undergoing sex reassignment surgery risk being identified as “homosexual” and in violation of the Penal Code. They will be at real risk of being targeted for discrimination, arbitrary arrest and detention, torture and other forms of ill-treatment. Such treatment will similarly amount to persecution."

Where are you getting this from? The old research used to indicate this, but that was back when most MTF were primarily men attracted to men who actually wanted to fully transition and cutoff their penis. For these MTF, transitioning was serious stuff, and the only way to really live the life they wanted. As MTF have become accepted, the straight males with autogynephilia have come out of the woodwork, the bar has lowered, and transition isn't necessary. Those old surveys usually questioned fully transitioned MTF so they were skewed.

The stats I've seen indicate a higher percentage of MTF who are attracted to women.

It's not like they just figured they'd give up. They are the embodiment of male entitlement. Where there is a will, there is a way. And we are the only ones in the entire global gay community who see this for as it is...men's rights activism.

If you tell them women aren't safe with transwomen, we are accused of hating men and condemning them all as rapists. When we express concern for children, they mock us as fraus who cry "but what about the children? Think of the children!"

They are openly misogynisitic and homophobic. And they are benefitting from male entitlement in a patriarchal society...ironically from LIBERALS.

It is conversion therapy at it's worst, taking advantage of immature minds to impose their own will on them. Whether the parents do it out of some kind of ignorant sincerity or in order to gain attention for themselves, it is just wrong.

My issue with transkids and their parents and doctors is simple:

It's perfectly normal for kids to think "My life would be so much easier if I were a boy/girl", because sex-based societal expectations don't suit everyone, and the grass is always greener. What's wrong is for parents and doctors to tell these kids that their lives WILL be easier if they take puberty blockers, hormones, and have irreversible surgery.

Medical transitions are incomplete and frequently unconvincing, they should only be undertaken by adults who fully aware of the risks, benefits, and limitations. Adults are massively overselling these "transitions" to kids, assuring them they'll be happy and accepted, when that's really something that's impossible to predict or guarantee.

That's a good question, although I guess I'd ask the same thing of you ("it doesn't really seem to be so" ... seem to be so how? In your anecdotal experience or based on stats).

It's difficult to gather stats on transition, because some studies on trans are only on people who have transitioned. Transitions appear to be pretty low, but you'd have to figure out if that's by choice or not. The non-transition autogynephile type have become much more vocal recently.

[quote]It's very difficult to know. The Encyclopedia of Surgery says that "the number of gender reassignment procedures conducted in the United States each year is estimated at between 100 and 500. The number worldwide is estimated to be two to five times larger." At least one other researcher says there are many more. Marci Bowers, a transgender obstetrician and gynecologist in Burlingame, Calif., who performs the surgeries, said in an interview that she does about 200 per year herself, about three quarters of them male to female. Fred Ettner, a physician in Evanston, Ill., who works with people going through transition, estimated that only about 25 percent to 30 percent of transgender people have any kind of surgery.

Many gays sympathized with transgendered people because the argument "it's just a phase, you'll grow out of it" is one that many of us heard about being gay and being attracted to the same sex.

But the thing about gender identity is that it often *is* a just phase that kids eventually grow out of. Tomboys become soft butch lesbians, and queeny little boys discover the gym and how hot they look wearing a beard (see below.)

Many gay people on this thread are right to be protective of our little gay brothers and sisters. Gay kids should be allowed to have their fun experimental period without having double mastectomies or taking hormones.

Not being perceived as a bigot is the most important thing.

It is inconceivable to them that trans goals (strict gender adherence, even if it requires castrations and risky lifelong hormones) are actually in opposition to gay goals (live life how you are, fuck you if i can't be a butch woman who likes sex with women or a femmy boy who dreams of sex with hunky men).

R131, that's part of why adding "T" to "LGB" has muddied the waters so much - some of the myths around homosexuality are, in fact, true when applied to transgenderism. I've never seen any research that suggests that homosexuality can be cured by conversion therapy. But all the studies on "gender dysphoric" children show that their dysphoria is unlikely to persist into adulthood - even the World Professional Association for Transgender Health acknowledges this:

[quote] An important difference between gender dysphoric children and adolescents is in the proportion for whom dysphoria persists into adulthood. Gender dysphoria during childhood does not inevitably continue into adulthood. Rather, in follow-up studies of prepubertal children (mainly boys) who were referred to clinics for assessment of gender dysphoria, the dysphoria persisted into adulthood for only 6-23% of children (Cohen-Kettenis, 2001; Zucker & Bradley, 1995). Boys in these studies were more likely to identify as gay in adulthood than as transgender (Green, 1987; Money & Russo, 1979; Zucker & Bradley, 1995; Zuger, 1984). Newer studies, also including girls, showed a 12-27% persistence rate of gender dysphoria into adulthood (Drummond, Bradley, Peterson-Badali, & Zucker, 2008; Wallien & Cohen-Kettenis, 2008).

How they can admit this and still recommend irreversible medical treatment for "gender-dysphoric" kids is beyond me.
