Trans girls not allowed to go to girls secondary schools, have I got that right?

[Sendhelpsoon]

Just checking as daughter is navigating this now and I’m sure many have been here before us.

If you, as a man, wants to wear a dress, then crack on. People shouldn't laugh because clothes are clothes and men should be able to wear dresses if they want.

What's incest got to do with it though?

GS went to a boys grammar, there was a girl in the year above him. I don't know if she was a transgirl or a girl who was going to transition. Didn't seem to bother any of the kids according to GS.

I'm a woman and I walk down the street in trousers all the time. What does it matter? What's good for the goose is good for the gander and all that.

Boys shouldn't be in girls showers. But again, what's that got to do with incest?

My 9 year old child is not a rapist. And your previous comment about incest is vile. Troll somewhere else.
As for the other replies, I appreciate it. We will be sending DC to a mixed school and of course welfare comes first.
Thanks

But most normal men don't. And people will laugh, or worse.

Quoting because this bears repeating!

This 1million percent.

I wouldn’t want my child changing with a boy in a skirt.

A good decision. Even contemplating a girls school seems completely bizarre to me. Talk about making things complicated.

Sometimes I don't think we give kids enough credit like your GS just getting in with it and always just worry about the what ifs etc. Raised well and accepting of others. Hope he keeps it up

If you want your son or daughter to be anything other than what they are biologically known as such as male or female, then you are part of the problem and the mental health of that child.

My daughters go to a GDST school and a few months ago they released a statement saying that no trans females will be allowed to attend their schools.

I didn’t even say I was doing that. I firmly believe that mixed is the right place for her.
She wants to go to the local girls school with her friends.
If this isn’t an option then it’s not an argument between us.
So many assumptions made from one question.

I dont think you'd be laughed at Simon, a dress is just a dress and the street is for everyone - go right ahead. I'm reporting your post for equating children with gender dysphoria and incest - absolutely nothing to do with the topic.

Strong Munchausen's-by-proxy vibes

Some of the comments on here make me so sad as a mum to a trans girl.

incest! Mentally disturbed!

it’s heartbreaking that people still think like that in this day and age

Encouraging your child to identify as the opposite sex (at age 9!!! Ffs) is going to cause them untold mental, emotional and likely physical pain down the line.

Accept that you have a non-gender conforming son and let him know it's fine to have whatever interests he likes. He is still a real boy and it's abusive to tell him he's not.

This is so smart and empathetic. Totally agree.

@Sendhelpsoon Oh come on how can a nine year old CHILD know enough to declare themselves trans? Of course it may very well be the case in the future, as an adult, but at 9 years old? My 7yr old still thinks unicorns are real and her 9 yr old friend still fully believes in Santa Claus!

Children hear about these things at school and it sounds exciting, cool & different. I'm not implying this is the case with your child, but studies have uncovered that some children also saw it as an effective way to gain the attention they were seeking. Ultimately though, I don't personally believe that a 9yr old has the maturity or the capacity to fully reconcile those kind of feelings and make such a life changing decision (I'm not referring to surgery there, just identifying as the opposite sex is still pretty life changing, even if only for a short period of time, especially at such a young age). 9?????

@simonwiseman I agree with a lot of your comments on this thread, but your comment at 00:21 now you have lost control, have shown your true abusive colours and are being hateful and misogynistic. Only a misogynist would go straight to attacking women's looks and figure. You wouldn't do it to a man. You clearly think we're just sex objects and all need to be attacked and judged on how thin we are. Well, I'm you're an obese man sitting in your basement eating pizza and angrily typing out abusive comments out of incel anger. I doubt you've had any woman, regardless of 'thinner', unless it's Mary Palmer and her 5 daughters.
