Ever notice how the folks who spew hate always try to give their groups really wholesome names like the "Family First" group whose director is quoted in the article?

Yes, we would most definitely not want our youth to have any confusion about the facts of trans people. That may make them tolerant and understanding and kill the public speaking fee's of hate speech presenters. ::)

Yes, because the purpose of school isn't to teach kids to think and have their worldviews challenged and make them grow up and learn skills for the real world, it's just to shuffle them through like little robots getting A's in a conformist environment where the goal is just to repeat mindless facts. Critical thinking skills? HA!!!
Yet another person completely unaware of body dysphoria, who thinks that transgender individuals are just people who need to learn to be happy as their birth sex instead of daring to force the rest of the students to confront the possibility that maybe they should actually step back and think about the life experiences of people besides themselves.

God forbid we help students be comfortable in school, after all, such a thing would damage the flawless moral fabric of society instated by our favorite bigoted adults. ::)
In all seriousness, thanks for posting this Neo!
It kinda reminds me of people trying to explain why gay marriage is wrong, "Let's deny other humans basic rights because it could confuse our simple minds!"
