Re the ideas embodied in trans ideology and the inculcation of school children as well as students in college/university on the ideology and related concepts, I recommend watching Benjamin A. Boyce's interview (posted on You Tube October 1, 2020) with Debra Soh of Canada and Abigail Shrier of the U.S. on this issue and the comprehensive sex education curriculum as well. According to both, so many teachers valorize this movement and the whole idea of gender vs. sex. And teachers in many areas, none of whom should be discussing trans ideology or sex and gender within the context of the subjects they teach (especially in primary and secondary grades?), are managing to insert it into their teaching. So, it is suggested that these ideas will continue to have currency even if finally rejected by authorities and will continue to affect children and adolescents negatively. The accepted curriculum often belies what is actually being conveyed in the classrooms. These controversies are also interfering with the parents' ability to supervise and guide their children's upbringing and understanding. (Even before this issue raised its ugly head, social media and cultural products have been influencing our children negatively.) This ability to supervise and guide their children is being taken away from parents. As you know, they are sometimes threatened with the loss of their children if social workers are brought in. I was much more impressed with Debra Soh as a result of this interview. Shrier is always excellent.
Sorry, all, slight technical hitch with the episode, it'll be back up tomorrow!
