Two members of the Orange Unified School District board have been removed by parents who opposed a policy requiring school staff to out transgender kids.
Parents in Southern California have voted to remove two conservative school board members after they spearheaded a policy that forcibly outs transgender students to their guardians.
Members of the Orange Unified School District board voted 4-0 to enact the policy in September. It was passed at 11:30 p.m., after the three opposed members walked out and withheld their votes.
The policy states that parents must be notified when a student seeks “to be identified as a gender other than the student’s biological sex or gender listed on the student’s birth certificate or any other official records.” This includes names, nicknames, and pronouns, and applies even if the student hasn’t taken action but has discussed the matter with a counselor.
…
At the initial meeting in September, the board was overwhelmed by crowds who showed up to either protest or support the policy. However, the majority of the attendees voicing support did not have children in the district’s schools, and most were not residents of the area, according to the Times**.
You do not know me. Do not speak to me like you can interpret one statement to discuss my children with me. I am blocking you because you are too dumb to realize how dumb you sound.
The only one sounding dumb here is you. Someone gives an honest, respectful and transparent appraisal of how your arguments sound in public and this is your reaction. I wouldn’t want to be your kid and if I were I wouldn’t want to talk to you either.
Good we can agree that we don’t want to hear each other’s interpretation. You will remember this in 20 years when you get over being a whiney little kid without anything useful to say that “it’s your parents fault”.
Lol, I will tell this story to my mom and she will laugh at you. Then 20 minutes later we won’t even remember that you exist. Just like your kids will do in 20 years.
Yea. Sure buddy. ;)
I’m not your buddy, pal.
I’m not your pal friend!
Your interpretation leads to kids being hurt by their parents.
You have zero evidence to support that claim. It is purely anticdotal and not even close to realistic.
Outing trans and gay kids to transphobic and homophobic parents has zero evidence that it causes real harm and puts those kids in danger? I’m gonna need some sources on that. The suicide rates and rates of homelessness among LGBT youth say otherwise.
There is literally no reason to be this huge of an asshole because your shit argument got debunked. Walking away with your tail tucked would be more dignified than this tantrum you’re throwing.

I am not saying that at all. Re read what I wrote. I said that not giving parents a chance is not fair to the parent.
This isn’t a bad argument in isolation, I’ll give you that much, but in the context of outing queer students to their potentially intolerant and abusive parents, while prohibiting any nuance to actually protect students from abuse (even if the kid tells you) is a horrific idea that will absolutely hurt vulnerable kids. Not trusting teachers to make the right call and punishing them if they try to protect a child from parental abuse isn’t fair to the teachers or the affected students. Fuck your right-wing “parental rights” bullshit, enroll your kid in a private Christian school if you’re so hellbent on repressing them.
The fact that you are so hung up on gender identity specifically suggests that you understand this fully, hold hatred against queer people, and want to see kids forced into the closet or exposed to abuse by these measures. That you understand the discriminatory intent, and agree with it.
That you’re such a piece of shit to everyone criticizing you basically confirms it.
Just go back to Reddit where you belong.
I don’t hold hatred to anyone. I just don’t allow people to bully me into stupidity. I know what I meant and I know what I said. If you don’t like it, don’t respond.
I feel really bad for your children reading your responses here. You sound unhinged.
Lmao like you know how well adjusted they are. You don’t understand parenting and it’s sad you think you do.
you’re the sad piece of shit here, buddy.
YOU DON’T KNOW ME. YOU’RE NOT MY REAL DAD!
jeezus, get snipped, you’re not ready for adult responsibilities if this is how you act.
Acting? These are words. Actions are something different. Get a dictionary and read it before trying to sound smart.
are you autistic?
Do you normally ask this of people? Or do you wear a helmet wherever you go?
see, this is why you should get snipped. Acting like a toddler having a tanty on the internet. Absolutely charming.
But seriously, if you are autistic, you should be aware that what you think are retorts are just making you look dumber than you are. You’re welcome.
If you aren’t on the spectrum, then I can only suggest to stop drinking lead paint, because you really are that stupid.
