I would not have tolerated the Trans behaviors in my teenage Daughter’s School. I would have protested to the Principal or removed her from Sports. This was not an issue in the ‘80’s.

You sound like a bigoted idiot. Hopefully your doctorate isn't in medicine, as I'd fear for your patients.
Yes it was. I went to school in the 80s and the school psychologist/social workers office was a safe place for all the kids that were different. And there were kids in there that felt weird getting changed in the locker rooms so she helped them come up with a strategy plan. Like late passes
So they could shower after everyone is done, and get dressed in a stall and be a little late for class or put study hall after gym so they had time to do whatever was needed. Some kids washed up in the nurses bathroom and just skipped showers so she’d make gym later in the day. It was always here
People that were different than the status quo got treated badly so they kept their mouth shut even “poor” kids got treated bad just for being poor back then. How is that even their fault. Mean kids have always existed and so have queer, and neurospicy kids.
If you didn’t know any of was because your circle of friends was either too small or you didn’t create a safe space for those people to confide in you.
You are attempting to make accommodations for a generous 10% of the population upon the majority 90% of the population ? You seem to be reasonably. It this seem fair ? Why not create separate baths, showers, and athletics for the Transgender community? My circle of friends are diverse culturally.
It's not an issue today you dimwit! More people have accused the fucking asshole of sexual assault than trans people in NCAA sports. Geeez try to keep up!
You seem emotionally disturbed. Please leave me out of your vitriol.
Try keeping your nose out of things you obviously don't understand then.
This is such bullshit. You should be called out on it by every GenXer on Bluesky. Your generation doesn't get to rewrite my gens experiences. Were you programmed by using tfg's tweets? What's with THe WEIrd RAndOm caPS?
Why do you not accept my perspective of raising a daughter in the 80’s ?
I've no doubt you're a bigot. I addressed your revisionist history of the GenX school experience. You're liking your own posts? Sad. So no explanation about your weird capitalization?
Trans people have existed for hundreds and hundreds of years. The only reason you didn't have "trans" in the 80's was because it was more hidden. I assure you folks were still trans back then. Also what "behaviors?" Is it all over trans women and not trans men again? That just makes you a transphobe
Just block BOX. He’s a homophobe and not worth the trouble.
The Transgender word was not used in the ‘50’s & on. Crossdresser, Homosexual, and Transvestite are labels that society used. Ladyboys have been parading for Carnival or Marty Gras for over a century.
Just because there were the current definition of trans people in say the 1950s or further back does not mean they did not exist, two spirit people were desribed by native American cultures a long time ago, one of the Roman emperors now is widely considered to have been trans.
Surprisingly, words evolve. Used be autistic was called another word, now it's not. Just like with history you either evolve or stay stubborn with your head in the sand in the past. Age is not an excuse nor is "well back in my day" If a super religious gma can understand and respect so can you.
Dravin, just block him. He's just babbling gibberish that should've died in the last century.
I'm okay, he can spout his old world viewpoints all he likes. Surprising he is a "dr"
He’s a “constitutional libertarian.”
Box is a fraud. Box of hammers.
Yeah, he's a libertarian also, which is I believe Republican adjacent.
As someone with a chemistry Ph.D. and 42 years of university teaching/research time, I opine that anyone who prefaces their name with "Dr." *and* ends it with "Ph.D." is a pretentious fool. Far too concerned with titles, not sufficiently concerned with reality.
Haha. Another misguided professor. Please read my LinkedIn profile Sir.
Based on the fact he uses Dr. And PhD in his title and his grammar reflects the mind of a 9th grade drop out, I'm going to hazard a bet he is not a Dr.
Do your own investigations. You seem quite uneducated.
Hitting the glue too hard
When fools have no sensible arguments, they revert to personal attacks.
What is your sensible arguement and then we can talk.
Look up my LinkedIn profile. I am not the naive academic that you think.
I care neither for your credentials nor your "but but look". I don't care you think you aren't Naive. I think you're elderly, stubborn and just as bad as extreme right wingers. How you treat others(Regardless of how they present) is very telling about Ethics.
He is also a supporter of genocide as well so he’s a hateful vile piece of crap.
Yeah, and I can be a doctor on the internet, too, lemme just update my profile …
You seem quite young and naive. Evolution takes generations and the recognition of history is critical before you can improve the human condition. You will learn in a couple of decades.
You seem like you shouldn't be a doctor with how you view things but you don't see me outwardly saying it until now. I'm 31 and have went through more things then you could even begin to understand at your age. In simpler times you can understand "Get with the times old man"
You will learn.
"Unfortunately some people were not put here to evolve. They are here to remind you what it looks like if you don't." This is you to a T. Thanks for showing me just like the rest of the elders who refuse to change what it looks like((Spoiler: It's gross))
The people who fail to learn from history tend to repeat it. Your evolution reflects your youth and immaturity. I am not the dinosaur you accuse me to be.
What is more mature you think? To yell and demonize a marginalized population of people you have no clue about and stay stuck in the past? Or is being mature understanding that people different then me are not the enemy nor should I completely demonize an entire marginalized population?
You foolish man. I am born & raised in San Francisco. You prove how little you know with each response.
Surprising that you say that since trans people were one of the first to go back in a war. Stonewall riots also had trans people. It seems rather then you learning from history, instead you're going back to demonizing like they demonized gay people. I say what I see and this isn't changing my mind.
You fantasizing and accusing me of things I never said.
And you won't learn and continue to be stubborn and spout hate about people you do not understand and then wonder at the end of your years what happened and be confused because you decided rather then get with the times to be stuck in the past with Elderly viewpoints of the world.
If we go on and on for as long as you then we become stupid and simple minded? Remind me to not be like Dr Box. I have a funny feeling Dr Box is going to become a meme for dumber than a Dr of hammers.
Words do evolve. For example: Stupid old dumbfuck. Vs Elderly stupid dumbfuck. Yo, monsignor old fuck, No one cares about what stupid things you thought 45 fucking years ago. The fact that you still think that way makes you a really stupid dumbfuck and that's a sorry way to go through life.
Transsexual was the word and it was used to mean something very different from transvestite…
I do not recall using the Transgender, Transsexual definitions until the 21st Century.
I didn’t say transgender but transexual was a term very expressly used in the 1960s even… and the difference between transexual and transvestite was so common it’s a key point in silence of the lambs (the villain isn’t a transexual).
Fuck off and learn proper capitalization rules "Dr. Box"
Thanks for your reminder. My APA formatting has slipped while blogging on the Internet.
Too bad we're talking about grammar and not formatting
Formatting is an unrealistic expectation while bloviating online. You are obviously new to publishing and blogging online.
You missed the point. APA is formatting rules. Grammar, e.g. correctly capitalizing words is Strunk & White and others. Also, formatting is quite easy on modern blogging platforms.
Are you an English Major in College ?
I did get one of my degrees in English with a minor in Technical Writing
Then you should understand that each writing has voice and style. The internet does not comply with APA, MLA, or Bluebook styles. Keep up your great work. Education is a powerful tool in life.
Then why not capitalize the second letter of the words you want to emphasize? I mean, if there aren't any rules about voice and style, why stick to that convention? The world is your oyster.
I am published silly girl. I am not trying to impress you here online.
It is inevitable that disgusting, ignorant assholes like you will stink up society with your filth and racism. Glad you learned to live with it, because I can smell your vile stench from here. Thank God my kids never had to misfortune to have to tolerate the likes of you; pretend you are human.
