Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan on parenting and children changing their gender... "When our children tell us who they are, it is our job as grown-ups to listen and to believe them. That's what it means to be a good parent."

Elon Musk: "Not when they’re fed propaganda by adults.

Moreover, every child goes through an identity crisis before their personality/identity crystallizes.

Therefore, we shouldn’t allow severe, irreversible surgery or sterilizing drugs that they may regret until at least age 18."

TRAs brandishing their idea of a gotcha: "This is why your trans daughter hates you and wants nothing to do with you."

Elon speaking a lot of sense there.

The man appears to be a Grade A turd in many respects.

But that doesn't stop him being right here.

This of course assumes growing up CIS is the right narrative for all kids.

Growing up happy, heathy and whole is what most parents (the non-Munchausen kind anyway) want for their children.

There is no such thing as a cis or trans child.

He must know how his child came to self identify as they did. The wiki leaks ex convict wity his ex may be another insight he has.

"This of course assumes that growing up healthy, without harmful medical interventions or being put on a lifelong medical pathway based on ridiculous and outdated gender stereotypes is the right narrative for all kids."

FTFY.

And for the record - yes. I do.

You’re right, being a subcontractor is not right for everyone. We need doctors teachers and other careers as well. Thankyou for pointing that out.

Bringing your child up adhering to sexist stereotypes is harmful full stop. Cis and trans are two sides of the same gender loving coin.

We were supposed to be freeing people from gender restraints.

I think it must be quite hard for him, a man who has spoken about the loss of having his first child die in his arms, to speak out about an ideology that one of his child is enmeshed in. He's stuck between compounding the alienation that exists between him and this young adult child and speaking out about an obviously damaging ideology that must be affecting that child's brothers too. He also has two children who I believe are being partially raised with their mother's transwoman partner. So if anyone has reason to just avoid engaging with trans ideology, it's Musk.

Much as I loathe Musk, I agree with him on sterilising children. I find it hard to understand why legally competent young adults are refused sterilisation operations by doctors “because you might change your mind in a few years” but these trans children/teens are allowed - even encouraged - to render themselves infertile and anorgasmic.

I'd say sterilising yourself and cutting off your tits or dick would be a hell of a lot worse and traumatic than growing up "cis"! 🤨

This. Absolutely.

I always wonder why posters who are so anti women never engage in discussion around why it's so profoundly wrong to help and enthusiastically cheer lead along, a young person to medicate themselves, take experimental drugs and hack off working organs (often to replace with some skin sewn together as a pretend vagina).

Instead they like to clap themselves on the back as a reward for being so progress and call other posters bigoted and hateful.

AmuseBish · 14/04/2023 15:56

It doesn't assume anything about growing up "cis", so it's factually incorrect to say that it does.

tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 14/04/2023 18:08

Sorry should say body parts not organs

'Cis' is the term used within the gender identity ideology to refer to those who identify as their sex. It's a term within a particular belief system, one where all people are assumed to have abstract gender identities (gendered souls) which either happen to match their sex or not.

It's not a term that should be used to define those who don't believe in that particular secular religion and who don't believe that they themselves have an abstract gender identity.

And it doesn't really mean just a person who is not trans, because it excludes the vast numbers of people who are both not-trans AND don't have a gender identity of the type the gender identity ideology demands its adherents to have.

GrimDamnFanjo · 28/04/2023 14:08

Perhaps it's time the TRAs gave Elon Musk the same treatment as JKR?
Surely this calls for a boycott?

Oh, wait...

KnickerlessParsons · 28/04/2023 14:12

There is no such thing as a cis or trans child

There is no such thing as a "cis" anything. We're all men or women/male or female. Some people who are one thing choose to pretend they are the other.

I thought it interesting in context of this thread that in one of Elon's tweets about this he specifically writes- "I regard cisgender as a slur."

Did Elon Musk buy Twitter in order to counter the gender propaganda his son has fallen prey to?

SleazyLizzard · 28/04/2023 19:22

I wonder if many political parties and companies are havIng a shock at how unpopular trans ideology is now that Elon has enabled free speech on Twitter
