I got to thinking how polarized this gender and transgender thing has gotten. It is not at all new.
What is new is how it has become weaponized and exploited.
I grew up reading Heinlein and in several of his books characters switched physical gender/sex (whatever these words mean) and back without much to-do. In that future, this was as normal as changing clothes it seemed.
So, as I say, I have no problem being friends with trans folks as long as they don't have an issue with me being a confirmed hetero.
Frankly the subject is old, old news and does not interest me much but I did a quick search for Heinlein to refresh my memory

I found it too dense for me but some might appreciate it.
Anyhow, the point IMO is that we must not get sucked in and conflate honest homosexuality, bisexuality, or trans with attempts to seduce the children.
That is the enemies' strategy and whenever we say we want to protect the children they scream lies.
Gender is probably a spectrum and always has been but sex cannot be changed at the chromosomal level regardless of how hard some pretend.
New report denounces Havana and claims ‘campaign of subversion’ has infiltrated highest levels of US government
"...There is overwhelming evidence that the machinery of the Cuban Government has been progressively organized around… a fundamental hatred of the United States,” the report stated. “Many of the most significant upheavals in recent American political history —from the George Floyd riots to the rise of Antifa to the explosion of pro-terrorist activism on American college campuses— can be linked, in some way, shape, or form to Cuban influence.”
The report doesn’t just hand-wave. It names names. It details how the Venceremos Brigade and other “revolutionary tourism” programs have funneled thousands of American activists to Havana for ideological (and sometimes literal) weapons training.
The Venceremos Brigade has brought 10,000 American activists to Cuba since 1969. This is because nothing says “I am fighting for the oppressed working class” quite ...
Now there is a plan! Of course dumb Canadians will not have the courage to vote with their brains, instead of their propagandized feelings of fear.
Canada’s economy is stalling badly.
We just endured the worst decade for real GDP growth per person since the Great Depression.
Over the past ten years, real GDP per capita limped along at an average of just 0.6% annually.
And Bloomberg’s consensus forecast for 2026? A paltry 0.7%.
Why does GDP matter?
Because family disposable income follows GDP like a shadow. Anemic economic growth resulting from lower investment means stagnant wages. Period.
The Liberals and fake Conservatives won't fix this.
The People's Party has a comprehensive plan to unleash private investment, supercharge productivity, and put more money back into your pocket:
Make the Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance (ACCA) permanent – Let businesses write off capital investments rapidly and skyrocket cash flow.
End Corporate Welfare – Zero subsidies. Zero bailouts. Zero regional ...
