Again, I never once mentioned gender identity.

Lol relax. I’m not your enemy. But jeez you go through so many conclusions how you hold a conversation in real life must be wild.

What? I’m not even talking about trans, I’m talking about drag shows for children. Quit projecting. I don’t hate anyone. Our society is teetering on perverse lines of sexuality making attraction identity a sole issue in raising kids. Public school education has the bar so low, and this is where teachers make six figures.

But there’s no conversation to be had with you, with how quick you assumed who I am. I’ve touched enough grass. I don’t sit at a keyboard.

Well said. It’s crazy how I can agree with 80% of progressive ideals but as soon as I mention I don’t want men in thongs introduced to my children I get absolutely flamed.

If you don’t want to be seen as someone taking things out of context, or exaggerating a statement then argue using facts. Arguing with my right wing family is a nightmare, but when it’s clear cut and easy for them to digest they get to see the hypocrisy easier. Making statements like “Trump doesn’t care about America because he literally said he doesn’t” and then showing them this article, then they watch the clip. And the eye roll they’d do.

Listen, this needs to stop. I hate Trump too but you’ll never argue with the right if you take things or if context. He clearly doesn’t care about America but he also clearly said “this may get me in trouble but I don’t care” then goes off on how the right wants crime gone and the left are the ones doing it. Still evil but not that what the headline is saying.

I don’t think all of the mod features are included in the odyssey update. A ship is one thing, but sos2 looked like it added TONS of content that odyssey didn’t cover.

He was making a joke on your second to last paragraph calling yourself short instead of “in short”.

Wow. I got played then. I paid the absurd $20 price because I used sync for reddit since it’s creation and loved it. I thought sync for lemmy would be a smooth transition and I wanted to support the dev. Why did he quit development?

Is there still no fix to this?

Man I hate safeway so much

Is per cent a typo or does it just mean percent.

So the options are WW3 or cede Ukraine to Russia.

Lol you’re funny. But I’ve never been to hooters, nor would think to take my kids there, if the emphasis of the restaurant is sexualizing women. But why do you bring that up? Are they walking around in thongs and nipple pasties at hooters?

I’m not trying to have a dishonest engagement. You’re right. There’s a lot of NSFW that isn’t sexual in nature.

The engagement I was trying to have is that kids are being involved with displays of sexuality. Seeing how it’s not even a conversation to be had here is telling of the community I’m engaging with.

Bathrooms aren’t locker rooms, but again thats not what I’m even referring to. I’ve taken my daughter into men’s bathroom stalls. I could care less about your genitals. I do care about public displays of stripping, nudity explicitly revolved around sexuality, aimed with children being either the intended audience, or part of the audience. Things I’ve posted here already got removed but I’m pretty sure it’s not too hard to find examples of children watching drag strip shows.

I vote blue down the line. Get off the internet and realize that it’s not Republicans alone that have issues with pedophilia and the lines being crossed around them.

You really think I’m talking about locker rooms? And do I need to point out that these have been male/female seperated?

Look, I just got my comment removed for unmarked NSFW content. It was a picture of drag expression with a child involved. My problem is that. I don’t want any child to be devastated but just letting children be involved in unsafe for work expression for the sake of letting them have all the freedom is devastating in my eyes. And to hide behind some of the comments here that it’s not sexual in nature I cannot believe it does not have a poor effect on the growing identity in children. This is where my “poor confused children” rhetoric comes from.

That’s NSFW content? But I thought it’s just innocent expression, safe enough for kids.

Are you referring to yourself? No one who loves their children wants to send them to conversion camp. There are definitely discussions to have regarding the proper medical treatments and psychological care and how the involvement of the state and legislature hurts more than helps. But I don’t want the state being involved in how we raise our children. I don’t want to change children or parents sending their kids to camp. But you can’t pretend that parents and our communities aren’t involved in the way a child is raised, how they grow mentally and encouraging strengths, and guiding them in a healthy way. Let kids be who they are and make sure they get the support they need.
