A former Texas educator filed a federal discrimination complaint against a learning center in Katy, Texas, after being fired for refusing to address a 6-year-old girl as a transgender boy.The boys parents were a same sex couple

Thoughts? o.O

Poll
Was the teacher justified in calling the student a girl

Why does it matter if a six year old wants to be a different gender? Why does it matter if he takes after his adoptive parents? It just means he likes them

Gender =/= sexuality
Ok But a 6 year old still can't decide neither their gender or their sexuality is what we are getting at lol

Why was an 8 month old thread bumped lmao
Because it was unjustly locked by the feels police within 1 hour of the thread being made and before a health discussion could be had. Justice has finally prevailed however

I do not blame the teacher in this case, I don't think a six year old can be sure about sexuality

Tbh, I've just been on Google Scholar and there's very little substantial research surrounding transgender children. Further to the point, much of it exists from 2010 onwards. It's not an established field of research, and there's definitely not enough out there to criticise it properly. Moreover, I imagine that a lot of those papers, of which I have not read, could have easily been manipulated by selective sampling. Research in social studies is so flawed in recent years, given the sensitive nature of the field.
the entirety of science has actually come under fire recently over how research is done, with everything to the aim of getting published. it leads to stranger or novel and not so substantial science getting the lead more often than not, basically. that's got nothing to do with this tho, just interesting lol. there's a market around what science discovers too
It's a known fact that a lot of psychologists are too selective in their selection process, simply because they wanna get dem sick p values.

To expand, if you are someone heavily influenced by LGBTQ committees, journalists or provocateurs, and you are a Social Studies or Psychology major working in research, the chances are that you are going to manipulate studies to suit your subjective needs.

the paedophilia thing is dumb and blowing things out of proportion, but allowing kids to make huge fcking decisions about what they are at 6 years of age is dumb af

i think i would have to know more about u chuchu0, but ur homosexuality was def just an idea to begin with lol. dudes without fathers also seem to turn up gay a lot, maybe a lot in compensation. same with dudes with a lot of older brothers, it's about what they value

or i know a lesbian girl who grew up the eldest with a paraplegic father, had to be tough for herself, so was tough. and you know there'd be no assurance in having a dude maybe? lol...there's a sort of artsiness in figuring why we turn out like we do

Normally I'd be called a bigot at this time but I see no signs of disagreement yet
That's because the site mentality has shifted since this thread was made up until now.
