Parenting comes with so many teachable moments. This is just another one.
You’ve got many more tough conversations in your future. Unless you suddenly don’t have a kid.
Even then “didn’t you used to have a kid/more kids” has to be a really tough conversation. Or at least I assume so, the father that doesn’t speak to me would be the one to know for sure
I read that and was thinking he almost " got it" but he didn’t.
I live in TX. The Telerico ads are a mix of how shitty ken paxton is as a person and his policies. All the Paxton ads are Trans gender is a huge problem (bc i can’t stop masterbating to the porn).
Just saw another add where he has his daughter stumping for him against Trans people. Something I learned from it… the weird eye is hereditary
Correct-- If republicans stopped stripping them of their rights and loudly demanding to see the genitals of every highschooler, there would be basically no problems. It’s called manufactured outrage, and it’s how They™ control the masses.
Transgender is “wrong” and “immoral” yet all these republicans are crooks, fraudster, adulterers, hidden closeted gays, and support and back the worlds largest pedophile on the planet with the nuclear codes.
But yeah, letting a man grow boobs is the problem here.
I can excuse wanting to fuck children…but I draw the line at giving them puberty blockers. /s
Don’t forget that Republicans like Rafael Cruz don’t have to use the name on their birth certificate, or that most Republican politicians have had gender affirming care like hair plugs and testosterone.
Because when Republicans are “crooks” they are hurting the right people. So it makes it okay.
Conservatism has always been about oppression. It’s not about small government or even protecting the kids.
It’s oppression.
Men should be allowed to grow boobs if they want.
But the point of being a trans woman is that you’re not a man.
I read it charitably as someone born with a male body wanting grow boobs…
But sometimes a pithier statement, though technically less correct, does more work.
I think there should be more mental space carved out for men with boobs, I dated a big dude with a sumo type body and the contrast between the muscly arms and legs and the soft moobs, mmmmm
None of that matters to a kid. To them it’s just a person being a person, wearing person clothes, and doing person things.
yeah no fuck you. transgender rights are not about “men growing boobs.”
I think you’re misconstruing my sarcasm about Republicans and their inability to deal with trans people and how they view them.
Sorry mate.
Imagine being afraid of talking with your kids about that topic. What a bitch.
If you never mention it to them, raise them in the church, home school them, make sure they marry some other homeschooler, keep them working in the family grift, you can raise them so they never hear about things like Trans and Gay and Liberal and Socialist, and they’ll create a better Christian America in the future.
Are these the same people with a Grindr account?
The thing is that the very reason he’s afraid is because the conservative take makes no sense and it’s just hatred for hatred’s sake – he can’t explain it to his kids without making it sound that way, because that’s exactly what it is!
“Sometimes God makes people who have a boy’s body and a girl’s brain.”
“So why are the tv people against what God did?”
“Well those people they don’t have to be like that.”
“But if they have a boy’s body and a girl’s brain, how is that their fault?”
“Goddamnit political ads you kids are too young to be exposed to this!!”
"
Sometimes God makes people who have a boy’s body and a girl’s brain."“God makes people exactly as they should be, but sometimes people are tricked by sinners, start thinking their body was made wrong, like wanting to be a girl if they’re a boy, and try to change it.”
“So why are the tv people against what God did?”"Really? Wow! I remember when Sarah tricked me into getting the sticker and not m&ms for treasure box today; I didn’t like it. 😟 "
FTFY: Not that I don’t agree with you or get your point, but I think you’re giving a lot of conservatives way too much credit in thinking outside their box. Any part of the LGBTQ+ community is a choice to most of them.
Why talk when you can beat the gay out of them preemptively?
“Mmmm! Tasty tasty faces!” -The Leopards.
What you feared under communism has come true under capitalism.
That poor Leopard is going to die of over consumption.

This reminds me of the Biden Administration, who was trying desperately to control immigration, and declaring that they did NOT support open borders, while the entire time, MAGAs were screaming “BIDEN HAS OPEN BORDERS! THEY’RE LETTING EVERYBODY IN!” every chance they got.
If people below our southern borders got the idea that they were welcome to come to America, it wasn’t the Biden Administration that invited them, it was MAGA. Nobody was sending the message that undocumented immigrants were welcome in America more strongly than MAGA.
The other day, elementary age kids received pamphlets in the mail explaining all about being trans, thinking it would turn people against the trans community. It probably will, but it also taught a lot of kids how to hide being trans from your conservative parents, and that pamphlet was almost certainly a MAGA October Campaign Dirty Trick. Now we also know that it was almost certainly conceived, created, and paid for by Elon Musk. Of course it is, it smells just like him.
Just goes to show whoever’s screaming the loudest the most wins with the dumbest people. Which is why more politicians need to realize that they need to constantly and aggressively keep repeating their messages and any and every win they have. Like Mamdani has been in New York.
Conservatives gradually approaching the point
When much of one’s political ideology is based off of manufactured outrage over the mere existence of a people group making up .01% of the population, they deserve all this stupid kind of bullshit that follows.
While the leopards munch face, Red State America thank their zombie god for Dear Leader. He kept trans people out of public johns.
It’s almost like we should keep government out of our lives unless there is a good reason.
What I thought was a conservative value when I was growing up.
Which is why our current “conservative” party is really more closely described as the neoliberal Christo-fascist authoritarian party who all eagerly voted for “I’m going to be a dictator on day one!”
It’s almost like trans people were a literal non-issue until conservatives made it their issue. It’s the Streisand Effect to the max. Just let trans people live their damn lives
