Itâs a damn tough life full of toil and strife We whalermen undergo. And we donât give a damn when the day is done/gale has stopped How hard the winds did blow. âcause weâre homeward bound from the Arctic ground With a good ship, taut and free And we wonât give a damn when we drink our rum With the girls of Old Maui.
(Chorus) Rolling down to Old Maui, me boys Rolling down to Old Maui Weâre homeward bound from the Arctic ground Rolling down to Old Maui.

If this isn't grooming and pedophilia then what is ?
I consider myself pretty open-minded but not that "open" as it relates to the above.
I read the article above but didn't see her making the statement that the idea of exposing children to genitalia should be done to try and acclimate them to seeing transgender genitalia. Only that the doctor seems to be a proponent of transgender people participating in sports where they are not participating in their identified birth gender. So, I'm not sure how the connection to the two statements were made.
Not for nothing... but isn't the idea (of children seeing genitalia) been going on for years in nudist colonies? Not really too radical when viewed in that context but I am personally not comfortable with the idea.
Fascinating, since it hits two topics (genetics and coding) that I understand a little. What interested my was how she took the dry biological info, but used it in terms that coders could grasp, even down to suggesting to them that they were "makers," a term I see a lot near home. I took my boys to a Maker Fair and there were all sorts of robots, etc. My older boy recognized Woz at a book signing and went up to talk with him.
So a nerd coder might not have a background in biology or genetics (for shame) but she laid it on their plate using their vocabulary. Really well done. Much thanks!
Something else, because this is neither grooming nor pedophilia.
Aside from which it's an opinion from an obscure, college journalism professor in Canada - not some pending proposal or legislation in the US or recommendation from the US Dept. of Educ. or the AMA.
That's what schools are for. Wait...we don't want "teachers" talking about that... and we don't want kids to read anything about that... so it's up to the parents... Which I think was the whole point of the post (formerly known as tweet).
The irony of these concerns from the right... home of over 7,000 identified groomers (sorry...priests).
Very interesting. Biology. Who knew? I watched a thing on AI which I need to find and post in that thread. Shattered and/or severed nerve pathways restarting or waking up from paralysis because implants simulated new pathways from the brain to the point where injury occurred and the formerly dormant limbs, senses, etc began to restore and relearn former function. That's the kind of "gain of function" research I would like to see and hear more about. AI introduced into molecular biology and genetic engineering. Surely old news by now. But actual results? Butterflies. Kind of like being terrified of heights and skydiving to try to conquer the fear. An unnatural sort of evolution factor.
The 100% human caused climate crisis talk we can debate. Seemed a side note of relevance in the presentation. I need to watch again undistracted. My take, though no one asked, is my own opinion. The argument is settled. The climate is obviously changing. It hasn't been a switch. It is cyclical and does mix with sun activity and earth/orbit/magnetic forces. Eons has it been so. It also has and is being made worse by human activity and selfishness. Polluted mind, polluted world.
Back to the presentation. GMO earthlings? The universe awaits the results with baited breath. but I digress...

any idea why the Post was there to interview her? I assume it was an ambush over some other event. Her response reminds me of those gun-waving nuts that are lauded as heroes but oh hey it's completely different.
There was a previous incident where she trashed a table of pamphlets or some other literature set up by a pro-life group at the college and cursed out the students who were manning the table. She didn't come across as someone who is especially stable so I don't imagine that the reporters from Murdoch's NY Post were going there to have a cup of tea with her.

The sixth grade students were given several gender identity options including, two spirit, girl/woman, boy/man, demigirl, which is to feel both female and agender, demiboy, the feeling of being both male and agender, nonbinary, gender fluid, agender, which is having a lack of gender, and nogender. The two spirit option is only to be chosen if the student identifies as American Indian or Alaska Native, the survey said.
