Sexual Orientation is Fixed, but Gender’s Completely Fluid. And 2 + 2 = 5.

Image
The theory that gays are “born this way” is not the fruit of science. It’s a political orthodoxy enforced by media, pressure groups, and increasingly the government. It stands in stark and strange contrast to what those same groups  want us to think  about being male and female. We’re not born  that  way. “Gender” is fluid and shifting, but “sexual orientation” is fixed. According to  The Human Rights Campaign : Children are not born knowing what it means to be a boy or a girl; they learn it from their parents, older children and others around them. This learning process begins early. As soon as the doctor announces — based on observing the newborn’s external sex organs — “it’s a boy” or “it’s a girl,” the world around a child begins to teach these lessons. Sex Is Fluid, Desire Is Fixed But on homosexuality, we’re ordered to believe that the opposite is true. One is born with homosexual preferences. Sexual orientation is not determined by family ...

Daughter of Gay Father files law suit - keeo traditional definition of marriage

Image
I am one of six adult children of gay parents who recently filed amicus briefs with the US Supreme Court , asking the Court to respect the authority of citizens to keep the original definition of marriage: a union between one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others, so that children may know and may be raised by their biological parents. I also live in Canada , where same-sex marriage was federally mandated in 2005. I am the daughter of a gay father who died of AIDS. I described my experiences in my book: Out From Under: The Impact of Homosexual Parenting . Over fifty adult children who were raised by LGBT parents have communicated with me and share my concerns about same-sex marriage and parenting. Many of us struggle with our own sexuality and sense of gender because of the influences in our household environments growing up. We have great compassion for people who struggle with their sexuality and gender identity —not animosity. And we love our parents. Yet, when we go...

Bathrooms are just the beginning: a scary look into the trans movement’s end goals

Image
The battle over men accessing women’s bathrooms and vice versa has little do with bathrooms or even transgenderism, a well-known LGBT activist admitted last week.  It has everything to do with re-working society and getting rid of the “heterobinary structure” in which we live—eliminating distinctions between “male” and “female” altogether. Riki Wilchins , who has undergone “sex change” surgery and is a far-left social change activist, wrote in the gay publication   The Advocate   last week that social conservatives and many LGBT activists are missing the point when it comes to the transgender bathroom debate. The title of Wilchins' article makes the points succinctly: "We'll Win the Bathroom Battle When the Binary Burns." People should be able to enter whatever bathroom “fits their gender identity ,” Wilchins wrote, but the fact that we even have “male” and “female” bathrooms reflects something about society that needs to change.  There are many “gende...

Over 750,000 pledge to boycott Target for giving men access to women’s bathrooms

Image
Over 750,000 people have pledged to boycott Target over the company’s new policy allowing men to use women’s bathrooms . The American Family Association, which launched the   petition , says the fact that it’s generated such a large response in only five days shows how outraged Americans are. “American families are concerned about their wives and daughters being harmed by predators or voyeurs who will now have more freedom to enter women’s bathrooms,” AFA president Tim Wildmon . “There are many more sex offenders in America than transgender people, so we believe that Target should keep separate facilities for men and women, but for the transgender community and for those who simply like using the bathroom alone, a single occupancy unisex option should be provided, as AFA has proposed.” Target announced its new policy last week, writing in a statement that it would allow people to use bathrooms based on their self-determined “ gender identity ” and not biological reali...

Texas AG to Target: Show me how you’ll protect women and kids from criminals

Image
The latest backlash Target received as a result of its transgender bathroom policy was a letter from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton asking the company to provide its safety policies to protect women and children from “those who would use the cover of Target’s restroom policy for nefarious purposes.”  “Target, of course, is free to choose such a policy for its Texas stores,” Paxton wrote in a letter to Target CEO Brian Cornell. He noted the possibility of the Texas Legislature addressing the issue in the future, but said, “regardless of whether Texas legislates on this topic, it is possible that allowing men in women’s restrooms could lead to criminal and otherwise unwanted activity.” “As chief lawyer and law enforcement officer for the State of Texas , I ask that you provide the full text of Target’s safety policies regarding the protection of women and children from those who would use the cover of Target’s restroom policy for nefarious purposes,” Paxton   ...

‘Tyrannical’: Ontario bans therapy for teens with unwanted gay attractions

Image
Not with a bang but a whisper, Ontario ’s three political parties quietly collaborated to pass a bill abolishing the right of teenagers with unwanted homosexual or transgendered feelings from seeking psychotherapy. Though it was framed as a human rights measure by its mover, Ontario New Democrat MPP Cheri DiNovo , Bill 77 is a “restrictive tyrannical bill that prevents children from getting the help they need and want with feelings and desires that are not welcome,” Clinton Somerton of Campaign Life Coalition said. CLC made a last-minute effort to get members to lobby their MPPs against it. The Affirming Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Act passed through the Ontario legislature like a knife through butter, with opponents either absenting themselves or sitting on their hands as it was approved on third (and final) reading on Thursday. The bill makes it illegal to provide psychotherapy to minors for either homosexuality or gender dysphoria, and prevents the government ...

6-year-old ‘transgender’ boy must be allowed to use girls’ bathroom: Colorado officials

Image
DENVER, CO , June 25, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A Colorado governing body has ruled that a 6-year old boy, who his parents claims is ‘ transgender ,’ was discriminated against when officials at his elementary school prohibited him from using the girls ’ restroom . In 2011, when Coy Mathis started elementary school, his family and school agreed to treat Coy as a girl and let him use the girls’ restroom.  However, the school decided to ban Coy from his continued use of the girls’ facilities this past winter break.  The reason for the school’s change has not been made public. Parents of the six-year-old boy filed a complaint with The Colorado Division of Civil Rights in February. On June 18, the board’s director, Steven Chavez, issued his ruling, in which he said the school’s actions were reminiscent of the pre-civil rights movement segregation attitude of “separate but equal,” and thus Mathis’s rights had been violated.  Coy Mathis before his parents bega...
