Gays Against Groomers has written an article, "The Rise of Trans Ideology," that gives statistics you may not have seen. Well-referenced, the article points out the cult-like nature of trans ideology. I spoke recently with two school board members and an educational director at a local school district. Going by the statistics in the article, there could be anywhere from about 30 to over 80 students in the school district who would be grappling with or actually "transitioning."
The article discusses the disconnect that kids today are experiencing due to social media and a lack of community: "These children have been left and abandoned, unintentionally for the most part, to fend for themselves and are expected to thrive in a society that they do not understand, looking for their place in the world. So they start looking outside themselves for understanding, and they find it in the form of people telling them what they think they are. They hear this belief that they are trans (transgender). They hear this term over and over again, day in and day out. The truth is, they were just looking for a place to fit in and finding this group of people who seem like they are just like them."
One board member became agitated and uncomfortable with even mentioning gender issues. Another asserted it was not an issue in their school district, and when pressed asserted President Trump would fix the problem.
The school staff member stated ignorance of transgender students in the district, such as how many were actually "transitioning." This individual was not sure how many books dealing with gender ideology were in the library.
At this school district there is no stated policy, and at the last board meeting, the board refused to discuss adding a policy definition of sex as based on biology when a motion was made to bring up the subject. No one seconded the motion to discuss. No one.
Parents and citizens, you must stand up and insist that your school district attend to the cult of transgenderism. It matters not how busy you are, how late you have to work, that your children would never get involved in something like that. Ask Elon Musk how that worked for him. If it can happen to his child, it can happen to your child, your grandchild, your friends' children.
You MUST begin attending school board meetings. You MUST educate yourself on how schools, through state and federal guidelines and NGOs, are pushing gender ideology. While President Trump may be able to do some things on the federal level, it is up to citizens to ensure that your local school district is not heeding the Wormtongue advice of lawyers to avoid lawsuits by avoiding the issue. There is too much at stake.
