Title: 'Boys Have Periods Too' to be Taught to UK 8 Year Olds
Post by: pr126 on December 20, 2018, 09:58:57 AM
Another one for the WTF files.

Find out why young children are being taught that all genders can have periods!!!

Slowly but surely the Western world is going insane.
Why do I say the western world? Because I do not hear/read of other cultures doing anything similar.

In case of doubt that this is "fake news":

England hasn't gone far enough.  The only way to get rid of toxic masculinity is to give mandatory sex changes to all the little boys.  See, maybe being ruled by a Queen, isn't the best thing.

The actual story is that trans boys (who are biologically female) can have periods. No one is trying to teach school children that biological males menstruate.

Jesus Christ people, do a little research before you jump on the anti-sjw bandwagon.

Here's the thing, the number of biological trans gendered children (and actual trans gendered children, not children dressed up as the wrong gender by their freakshow patents who want to show the world how progressive they are by fucking up their children's psyches) is extremely low, if you look into it, your be lucky if you find one or two trans gendered kids in a single american state in school.
This makes their situation unique and its fair to teach about those few small individuals.

But if you make a class to put these message across that children of any gender can have periods, then it's sending the wrong message to young boys

This is again schools forcing identity politics on children when it isn't needed.

Oh for fuck sakes, Munch, of course you still manage to find a reason to hate this even after a correction.

They are not being taught anything factually incorrect. Given the sheer amount of ignorance the general population has about trans people, this is not a bad thing for kids to be learning about. There's nothing political about it. We on the left always say that the best solution to prejudice is education: well here it is! Frankly, there needs to be more education about minority groups, not less!

Free public education, it is in the Communist Manifesto.  Coincidence?  I think not.  If we can't agree on what to publicly teach children, then close all the schools (and colleges) and send the little monsters home were mom and dad will be free to abuse them with theology or ideology.  This is just a part, of the total breakdown of society, if everything, including toilet paper (see Venezuela) becomes a political question.  In that case ... more evidence of total failure as a species.

Many young Americans believe that communism, - if done right - is the best governance.
So far, no one has implemented it “correctly” anywhere.

It cannot be done, because firstly, it is anti-human.  It is against human nature.
Second, it is only can be done by tyranny, by force, and mass murder.

None of those people have experienced communism. It has to be lived to appreciate it.

Globalism indicates the same goal.
Globalist don’t care about the third world, they want everywhere to be the third world.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

Well, as much as I enjoyed my break from the forum...

No one accused it of being fake. What people accused it of is twisting what is actually happening to sound about ten times more dramatic then it really is and to make a "story' out of something that isn't even remotely worth actually reporting on, much less working one's self up about and using as an example of how Western civilization is on the verge of collapse because, "the left".

You have, in your signature, a quote about how "the left" isn't the best ally to the LGBT community... and yet I have seen multiple times over the last month or two you attack transgendered people time and time again. I have also seen Munch attack transgendered people several times, and you are oddly quiet about it.

If you are going to try to hold it over someones' head that they aren't the greatest of allies to the community, which I am actually somewhat in agreement with you, then don't fucking turn around and attack that same community or stay silent when your partner is attacking them. To call it yellow bellied and disgraceful is an understatement to use said community as a tool to attack people with... then turn around and attack them because your camp tells you to hate them.

That's some weak ass shit.

Educate or indoctrinate in trendy PC?  Be very careful, if school is a political tool, it can be used both for and ... against you.

Please give examples of anti-trannie hate speech by either Munch or Pr126 ... other than denigrating the current trannie political advocacy.  Being against a political agenda of X, isn't the same as being against X.

For example, I am against the political advocacy of the current Chinese mono-party ... but I am in no way against the legitimate aspirations of the Chinese people.  So if I say about a policy of China, that X policy is wrong, I am not thereby anti-Chinese.

In Pr's case, he has spent several threads informing us that transexuals are just mentally ill people and thus don't deserve any special treatment (which itself is an extremely problematic statement).

For Munch, it was entire thread dedicated to calling transexuals who don't get sex changes a bunch of pussies and powers and "tools of the left" because they don't have the balls to go through with it... because you know, it couldn't be societal pressure or the fact it costs $100,000+ to go through with the operation.

nice summery, but I'll correct you since its christmas.

it is a long hard road for someone to make a transition, I respect people who get there and those working to get there, since I was friends with someone who did years ago so much so I didn't know he use to be a she when I first meet him.
But there are plenty of people who simply want to act like their trans not because of a real desire to be another gender, but just because it makes them feel special, a trend, progressive rights is the hot button topic these days, so why not trend out as if your one of them, the same way people wore ripped jeans years ago because it was trendy (but completely impractical).

I have a lot of respect of people making the effort. I have little respect for people who pretend to be just so they can feel special. And rather then it creating a more diversified platform for trans people, it instead gets overtaken by people 'becoming trans' for the wrong reasons.

There are a few with psychological problems, but the majority of "transgenders" are brainwashed by the neo-Marxist ideology.
It is political, not psychological.
Deliberately confusing people, starting with the very young. Denying, distorting science for political gains.

How has "Transgenderism" become such a major issue in the last few years?
Where did it come from?

From the same ideology that is promoting third/fourth wave feminism, gender pronouns, political correctness, subversion of the language - "Newspeak", and of course the academia, media, entertainment industry that is promoting it for decades.

In fact, anyone under the age of 40 has been "educated" to accept these as the natural order of things.

Started in the '60s with "make love, not war". We have progressed quite a lot since.

Sounded like that to me.  I find stupid people making stupid claims all over the internet.  So, one more stupid claim didn't seem that odd.  And so many people write so carelessly (thinking that everyone else knows what they MEAN but don't actually say) that even when I DO research, it isn't what they meant anyway.

At some point, you have to take what people say literally.  And besides, I am beginning to think that 80% of the population is dumber than average.  I know, I know...

Humankind is a good compromise.  But mind you, in Spanish, Africans are still called "negro".  Why are Anglophones the only one's targeted?

"The word Negro was adopted from Spanish and Portuguese and first recorded from the mid 16th century. It remained the standard term throughout the 17thâ€"19th centuries and was used by prominent black American campaigners such as W. E. B. DuBois and Booker T. Washington in the early 20th century. Since the Black Power movement of the 1960s, however, when the term black was favoured as the term to express racial pride, Negro (together with related words such as Negress) has dropped out of favour and now seems out of date or even offensive in both British and US English"

All words have origins, and few are initially meant offensively.  They just are words that describe something.  In Spanish, negro just means black. 

I understand why.  We are used to brown people of African origin being called "black:.  But they aren't.  I worked in a store and had a customer from Sierra Leone come in.  HE was as black as the ace of spades in a card deck.  I was amazed.  I didn't know a person could be THAT black. 

I didn't have any problem serving his purchase of aquarium fish or anything; I just never saw a person so black.  I was actually pretty impressed.  Being into human evolution, my main thought was "Wow that guys people were my ancestors".  Cool...

If White people were failures, living on reservations, the SJW would love us.

And I have seen the exception makes the rule ... a Native American who was actually red.  Most are not that ... stereotyped.

Damn, I forgot what SJW meant for a few weeks.  A real red-skinned person?  Neat.  I love diversity.  Speaking of which, I've read that the blonde gene actually came from neanderthals.  How about that?  Blonde blue-eyed (they go together) neanderthals facing dark-skinned black curly-headed cro-magnons.  LOL!  I love it...

It is not a claim, it is an observation. Why is it incorrect?

Give me a synopsis in your own words.

Also. If it's just another video saying the same thing as the bogus article in the OP, I'm not going to repeat why it's incorrect. I already explained it. Go back a  few posts and read why, in case you missed it

Well said.  A link is good as support material, but when someone depends on links, they aren't thinking very much.

Because Anglophones are perceived as white. White Guilt.

I don't feel guilty about being "white".  That was merely an adaption to requiring more Vitamin D through skin exposure, as opposed to Africans who needed to protect themselves against too much. 

I think what you are trying to get at is culture and tech advancement. That has nothing to do with "race".  That was not really available to Africans (no good animals or plants to domesticate), while north of Africa had many.  All humans were/are equally smart, so location mattered. 

We re all the same species.  In fact all of us are more closely related to each other than some adjacent tribes of chimps are.

If you'd care to read the actual report (https://present.brighton-hove.gov.uk/Published/C00000968/M00009226/$$Supp30547dDocPackPublic.pdf)

Primarily it is about working with 'Red Box' to remove stigma around periods and increase student access to free menstrual products at school.

But, naturally, all the focus is on two bullet points:
QuoteLanguage and learning about periods is inclusive of all genders, cultures, faiths and sexual orientations. For example; ‘girls and women and others who have periods’.
[. . .]
Trans boys and men and non-binary people may have periods

Diversity?  You love criminals, terrorists and other oppressed people?  Woke, man!

March hand in hand with activists necrophiliacs, bestiality fans etc.  Save all oppressed (and demented) subgroups.

In an era of democratic media, one can expect much quantity and low quality.  Yes, elite media, bring back William F Buckley.

Do you notice that you tend to never make a SPECIFIC reference to the person you are chastizing in your posts?   I've mentioned that before.  STOP DOING THAT!  We are not mind-readers.  Say who you are responding to by quote or refeference...

No, and that's the point.  Just say the names or use the quotes.  Don't make us guess...    That's all I ask.

If you were in charge of a bunch of overactive children (not unlike this place), and one acted up, would you just shout "YOUR IN BIG TROUBLE"? and not give a hint about "who"?  Of course not. 

So don't do that here.

Ahahah, ffs. He means the Social State. I don't know what will it mean to you, but roughly caricaturised, Social State is a system based on mixed economy where the state works for promoting citizens' lives based on equal opportunity, equitable distribution of wealth. Free health, all kinds of welfare for example.

The thing is, while the far right has long promoted that Social State as a system where people just want a free ride but nothing else for decades, now with politics playing on refugee crisis, identity politics; dividing as much as they can, they define anything society-people friendly with any suitable boogieman concept. Communism or muslims for example.

In the UK, before and during the Brexit campaign, there was this balatant lie going on around how muslims first and other minorities are sucking the government funds with welfare. The irony is the white British were the largest group among Europe who got any kind of welfare from their own and EU in general. LOL   

Because another name officially used for Social State is Welfare State which is bullshit of course, because the concept of Social State in principle is about creating a society where people do not get homeless, starve OR do not have to choose a life to work 9-5 to survive. Not just supported when they are in need. Far right promotes this as people riding the governments.

How far right looks into this is people who are not working for status, money; to achieve any kind of success society defines or just to survive are 'dangerous' in many ways. Basically, if you do not fear homelessness, lack the stress of what will become of me, what if I get sick, what if I fail...etc. you do not conform the human life governments require to herd the masses. Meaning that as a human being, you are far less likely to offer yourself as resource.

You are more likely to refuse;

-religious and any kind of traditional institutions
-marriage and procreating
-military

If this idea; understanding found a place in majority - very highly unlikley- the culture would transform fundamentally. About everything. From choosing a partner to have sex to eating habits.


So the idea of Social State always scares any kind of right and religious states/governments as if it could produce an easy coming culture. That part is because they are stupid. But the real dynamic is that Social State makes it difficult to maintain the basic norms in time as the generations turned.

The main social problem is that 50% of the people fall on the wrong side of the gaussian curve in anything you might want to measure.  Originally this was cleaned up by Darwinian hunter-gatherer reality.  If you can't handle being that, for more than a few days, you die, are removed from the gene pool.  Agriculture broke this natural limit 10,000 years ago.  This isn't a new problem.  Agriculture is the original "surplus production" distortion.  Not that Henry Ford etc can produce cars faster than people can buy them.
