Good for you. Next time you interact with someone who is transgender you make sure to use pronouns they do not prefer. Then shove it in their face when they object, and say you're just bring compassionate, since we need more of that.
Or just use their name? I don’t care what adults do. Not my monkey, not my circus.
You think what that teacher does while not in the classroom is inappropriate because the next day they’re a teacher? I went to a Rocky Horror showing and the next day taught children how to bake bread. Was that inappropriate? Is there some sort of cooldown period between seeing drag and seeing children? A COVID-like quarantine we have to adhere to so we don’t spread drag?
The fact is it’s a forum and I can’t see your gender. The only people I know named Riley are women. Since I can’t confirm your gender, other than what you state, and your name is feminine, I don’t feel comfortable using your preferred pronouns and would rather use the ones I believe are consistent to your identity you present on the forum. For religious reasons. God would be angry at me if I was referring to a woman as a man.
Except Riley is a very common unisex name.
Yeah, for one thing, there are dress codes in public schools. And drag queens wouldn't meet those codes.
In the US, Riley as a girl’s name is 42, while as a boy it’s 229. It’s much more common as a girls name.
Your declared gender. As we previously discussed, you and I don’t acknowledge declared pronouns.
I don’t know that. I’m only going by what I see.
And honestly who wants to put in all that work to be a drag queen every day when you’re only seen by kids.
Huh. Sounds exactly like something a transgendered person would say...
Yep. My wife and I share a name that could fit either gender. And we've collected quite a few other cases like that... Gene, Pat, Billy, Cary, Alex etc. where a couple share the same first name.
Wrong. It’s happening with so called gender affirming care and puberty blockers BUT that is going off topic. And I won’t comment further.
If I was to post a video on this forum of a 9 year old boy doing a drag show in front of a live audience as he is dancing like a stripper and people are throwing him money (which has happened) I would probably get permanently banned. Why do you then think it is appropriate for children to be exposed to this stuff? Why do people bring their children to pride parades and expose them to that leather and whip circus?
I remember that! It was absolutely disgusting!
I was born in 1995. Times have been changing regarding names.
You took me on quite the logic journey… If a 9 year old were dancing and people were throwing money at them, I’d say the people who need adjusting in that scenario are the people throwing money. Leather and whip circus…? lol, what? How did we go from drag queen story hour to leather and whips at a pride parade?
