Steve, what Eric is saying is perfectly reasonable. Encouraging young boys and girls in their transgender inclinations means leveraging the immature mind of adolescents for the sake of pursuing an ideology, a political narrative, and a willingness to change society but without respecting the times and limits dictated by elementary psychology, psychiatry and even common sense.
When I hear about pushing transgenderism in elementary schools, I think about indoctrination, similar to that exercised by russia and china.
I don't know why the woke movement wants to go to such extremes. And wants people to believe it to be the normality.
As far as we are concerned, Yoga is surely not the path of extremes, it is the path of moderation. I understand your reasons, but these cease to be valid when the age of the involved persons is legally immature. I would put 21 years at least as the minimum age for starting such procedures of gender change.
I’ve been around three transgenders in musical groups in my life. They successfully changed their sexuality and did so because they wanted to do so. I think it is perfectly reasonable to bring up all types of sexuality early in life. Especially when puberty aggressively affects our harmones. This can easily happen to even a young person in late elementary school. I do not pretend to be a psychologist and to be able to work out the details mccoy. But to ignore sexuality in education is for an example a good way to promote unwanted pregnancy. Although I will say this; to have the MAGA people come in and make absolute judgements on homosexuality, bisexuality and transgender is certainly not a fair way of expressing or understanding the many ways of human expression -that is, one philosophy fits all-. We can see it’s dangerous in conspiracy theories surrounding voting irregularities which led to a coup and attempted take over of the worlds original experience in democracy. We have seen these type of people, who were the first instigators of burning people at the stake while witch hunting; The greatest threat to democracy and freedom of expression we have witnessed in the history of this nation; the U.S.
