Fuming about this atrocious mother on BBC radio who believes girls can't be girls if they ike pirates

Or the Transborg, as somebody rather marvellously called it on another thread.

Adult transactivists are highly vested in transing children. Men who enjoy cross-dressing and now want to get into women's toilets see the chance to back up the narrative that gender is truly innate, and the younger the better. Children are being exploited by adults here; and the liberal media is beholden to the trans agenda.

age I do think there is something a bit sleazy and , for want of a better word, "off" in effectively quizzing a 10 year old about their sexual preferences.

Maybe social services will be interested?

Which is a perfectly valid question, and no reason why girls can't play Hamlet and so on

If you are teaching English in the UK I think it is pretty disgraceful to be unaware of the well established tradition of actresses (deliberate choice of word) playing male Shakespeare roles. There is no reason why that can't be done in a classroom.

" You've always been more attracted to boys, would you be gay man or a straight man?"

I can't get my head round asking that question of a 10 year old.

Is the same 'Leo' as referred to in the BBC magazine:

www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37383914

Typical mish-mash of male/female, boy/girl, masculine/feminine as if these are all equivalent. Whereas they said:
"I got really frustrated because I asked why none of the girls got boys' parts in a play that we were doing."
Which is a perfectly valid question, and no reason why girls can't play Hamlet and so on (especially if they have chosen a play with few decent parts for girls playing girls!). Instead, this becomes evidence that someone isn't entirely a girl.

And frankly, I find the mothers reported question:
" You've always been more attracted to boys, would you be gay man or a straight man?" You don't like the 'girl' stereotypes, so let's see if the 'gay man' ones fit you any better -- of a TEN year-old who has quite rightly noticed that (some) of the expected girl stuff is a right pain!

This line:
"There isn't a body of the two genders. I just wish there was some way in the middle." is quite scary. To me this sounds like a line of thought that ends up with someone with top but not bottom surgery as some sort of 'in-between' body.

This person needs to be told that being female doesn't mean you have to feel like anything.

What an absolute croc of shit.

"Leo is more boy than girl"
Insanity.

Is this the mother who regularly asks their child what gender they are today? And who's other mother 'came out' as a vegetarian?

Yes, she's an oddball and no mistake.
