The proposed law categorizes any discussion of transgender identity as "sexual" and therefore forbidden for kids to learn about in class.

    No more transitive verbs or translated texts. No more transportation networks or radio transmitters. Don’t even talk to me about the crossbeam between the door and the window above it. And if you mention transfer students you’re getting suspended!

      On the bright side we no longer have to worry about trans-fats. Yay!

    “Stop the Sexualization of Children Act" … Maybe the GOP should stop being pedos instead.

      Cut other parts off, since they’re probably using them to diddle kids anyway

    Sorry kid, your Optimus Prime backpack is banned. Automotive class is also canceled because we can’t discuss changing gears. History class will not be discussing what was completed at on May 10, 1869 at Promontory Summit, Utah. Those of you who have completed driver’s ed can pick up your licenses at the Department of Portation.

    I fucking hate these people.

    I am fucking sick of the entirety of these “people” having their wntire concept of being trans come from porn and therefore be entirely sexual in nature. I honestly don’t want to live on this planet (or this country, or at all) anymore.

    This is why they’re so obsessed with censoring “porn” because anything they don’t like is “porn”
