I cannot underscore enough the importance of everybody out there really and truly learning what heart attack symptoms look like in a woman. It is entirely different than how they appear in men in most cases. Please take time to educate yourself, you could save a life.
Teachers that are mad, I need you to hear something important, from a former student:
If you have issues of students chronically avoiding your class, it's YOU. It's YOUR TEACHING, YOUR ATTITUDE. Be a kinder person, find new ways to connect and engage, and kids will want to stay.
@TortieCats@bill_shipsey @UCDLawSchool Typical females are assigned as women, some people aren't comfortable with that & would prefer to be seen as a man instead because they feel that connects with them. No one is trying to change their sex and they know that, because chromosomes can't be changed.
@mcBrodz@AdamDeuce@anon_opin it depends on the dog's background. Children should be taught to respect dogs especially when there's potential for resource guarding.
@acid_angelic@leakylike@TransKidsRule Forcing this young girl into a boys changing room could potentially put them in danger, why are we preferring that to a parent being uncomfortable? If these girls aren't taught that they are supposed to be upset or uncomfortable they will not bat an eye.
@acid_angelic@leakylike@TransKidsRule I wouldn't be surprised if the only person uncomfortable is the parent who reported it. The girls probably think nothing of it and carry on with their day, genitalia shouldn't effect girls changing rooms because how much genitalia do you actually see? None!
@acid_angelic@leakylike@TransKidsRule No trans person claims you can change your sex. That's biology drilled into you from when you're first formed. However your brain chemistry can be closer to female than male therefore your gender doesn't necessarily match your sex. There is no criteria to be a girl.
@acid_angelic@leakylike@TransKidsRule This child is a girl, people should be more worried about protecting all the girls in these changing rooms. These girls should be educated and the trans girl should also understand why people may take time to adjust. Everyone here just wants to get changed in a safe space.
@leakylike@TransKidsRule Her daughter has every right to be in the girls changing rooms. Would you freak out if one of these girls comes out as lesbian and is still allowed to use the changing rooms? But obviously that's horrible because she's attracted to girls and gets to see them change!
