  1. So your daughter, who does not even live in FL, did a protest on a bill I doubt she knows anything about? You need to have a long talk with your daughter about intelligence.

  2. This involves public schools that follow a teaching curriculum. If a 2nd grade teacher started talking about their sex life they will get fired. Also, nowhere in the bill does it ban anyone from saying gay.

  3. That more or less opens up the possibility for older students with learning disabilities not being taught about sexual orientation.

  4.  @ToxicAudri  sure, and it should not come from the teachers, that is the point.

  5. Uh, straight teachers are limited in what they talk about in their home life, same with LGBT teachers. This bill is equal across the board.

  6.  @kegsofvomitspit  right away the mother said they live in the west coast. So how much does that daughter understand FL law? I bet very little. If she does then great for her. There are many lawyers who understand the laws of the state they work in but not others. Why? Well, why bother? Next, if they live in the west coast they should not care about FL. They don't live there, they don't vote there, they don't pay taxes there, etc. It is out of their concern. A big reason why so many voted for Trump is that people were sick of the liberal elites in other states talking down to them. How about that daughter worry about what goes on in their own backyard and leave people in other states alone.

  7.  @warriorwaitress7690  overall, I suggest your daughter worry about what goes on in her state. Unless she lives in FL, votes there, pay taxes there, etc. she should not worry about it. A big reason why so many voted for Trump was that people were sick of the liberal elites talking down to them. People are sick of your daughter, living out west calling people of FL ignorant, names, transphobe, etc. when she has never even interacted with them nor care to understand them. Here is the thing, worry about your state, your community and not others. If FL is so awful towards the LGBTQ community then maybe your daughter should spend time recruiting them to live in your community as opposed to trying to change other communities they have zero ties with.

  8.  @frankkarvell  sure, the point is that teachers are limited in what they can say. Say a science teacher started to go on a political rant in class. They will get fired.
    3
  9.  @ToxicAudri  "how about when a kid asks why a man has a husband and not a wife like their own family? " Well, a few things. On, the man can say he loves his husband and that is his family. Next, what about children with single mothers? Next, this bill bans the teacher from discussing sexuality. So children will not be learning about hetrosexuality either.

  10.  @camwyn256  good luck with that.

  11.  @msdarby515  a key point on that walkout is that the teachers supported it. This is why this bill was created, you have teachers teaching kids about sexual orientation and gender identities.
    2
  12.  @j0j0dartiste21  talking about orientation is sex talk. To say someone is gay means they are sexually attractive to the same sex. How else will you explain discussion of sexual orientation?
    2
  13.  @223Drone  if you are gay, what does that mean?
    2
  14.  @DissociatedWomenIncorporated  ok, I agree. There are friends who I am closer to than others. It is based on emotions. But when you start talking about sexual orientation you are talking about sexual attraction, period. There are many people I love but are not attracted to sexually. I love one of my best friend who is a guy. So am I gay? No because I am not attracted sexually to them. Read carefully, when we talk about someone being gay or straight we are talking about sexual orientation.
    2
  15.  @DissociatedWomenIncorporated  the thing is you are claiming that a teacher cannot talk about their spouse which is an extremist viewpoint as is. That is not what the bill is preventing. In fact, the bill is really going to change very little that already exists in the current state of education in FL. Just watch, this bill will pass and nothing will change overall.
    2
  16.  @DissociatedWomenIncorporated  the bill is not vague. It says sexual orientation. At that point the courts will rule all sexual orientation including being straight. Also, clear guidelines will be created. Read education standards sometime, they are always vague. Read CCSS, they are vague where teachers develop their curriculum. As I said, this law is not really adding anything new that does not exist, it actually makes things more clear in what teachers can and cannot do. "And once again, why is gender identity being lumped in with sexual orientations" They are related, also, a lot is in this bill. It is 7 pages long where sexual orientation is mentioned twice and same with gender identity. "and if a teacher transitioned in terms of gender, how could they be expected to entirely avoid the topic of gender identity from a bunch of very curious minded kids" Easy, don't talk about it. It is a complex issue. "The entire bill is lunacy, and given that teachers already weren’t going into any inappropriate bedroom topics and could already be fired if they did, why exactly was the bill even needed?" Well, put it like this. There are teachers in other states pushing the idea that this bill is "don't say gay". In Denver students and teachers rallied against the bill. You have teachers pushing false information about the bill and are talking about issues like sexual orientation to kids where that is not what they should be talking about. When I hear of teachers supporting, and even participating over this bill feeling it is "don't say gay" makes me support it more. That our teachers need to be roped in even more.
    2
  17.  @DissociatedWomenIncorporated  it is none of their business. At most the teacher can say they made an adult decision in their life. And gender identity is related to sexual identity. When you are gay you are attracted to the same gender. Think about it. How will the law not pass constitutional challenges in the SC? What is unconstitutional about it?
    2
  18.  @223Drone  you being up "facts" which is the bottom of bloom's taxonomy. How you interpret them is key. The person brought up the situation where a teacher can change their gender and what they should say to kids. Well, that teacher can simply say they made an adult decision like cutting hair. They are not in the position to discuss about changing their gender, the parents are. Also, what facts am I wrong here?
    2
  19.  @223Drone  I also love how you refuse to have any kind of discussion with me.
    2
  20.  @AdamRitchie2  prophet needs to take something. He tries to attack me without actually taking me on. I finally convinced him to have a discussion and we were having a decent one about immigration in the US. He eventually stopped responding because I told him I was against illegal immigration but supported immigration as a whole. He supported illegal immigration and one reason was that immigrants are typically more productive than natural US citizens. I said I agree, but that is because many of those immigrants come legally where the illegal ones are not more productive. He was trying to bait me to get me to oppose all immigration and label me as a racist like he always does. Well, me not being a racist did not fall for it.
    2
  21.  @frankkarvell  ok, now how does this law discriminate against anyone? As I said, if a teacher started talking about their sex life to kids, no matter what orientation, they will be fired. Or what if a teacher started reading 50 Shades of Gray to 3rd graders?
    2
  22. The law does nothing like you are describing. The word "gay" is not mentioned anywhere in the bill
    2
  23. What is being undone?
    2
  24.  @camwyn256  "A male teacher saying his husband baked cookies for the class is such a horrible thing to do that that teacher should be sued" Good thing that is not how the law is written. A male teacher will still be allowed to say that.
    2
  25.  @ToxicAudri  where in this bill does it say that LGBT is not OK?
    2
  26.  @Greendalewitch  "Heterosexual teachers are allowed to use the word wife or husband while homosexuals teachers cannot. " Where in the law does it say that?
    2
  27.  @Greendalewitch  it isn't vague. Sexual orientation involves heterosexual as well. If charges are pressed for a homosexual teacher mentioning their spouse it will have to be applied to heterosexual teachers as well. No teacher should say if they are straight or gay. This is nothing more than the left making things up to stir up emotions as opposed to discussing what the actual bill does and why it is created in the first place. When the left loses on an issue they name call as opposed to trying to work with others or understand why they lose on certain points.
    2
  28.  @ToxicAudri  explain what?
    2
  29.  @j0j0dartiste21  from Merriam Webster, which is left leaning after changing their definition of "anti vaxxer" "a person's sexual identity or self-identification as bisexual, straight, gay, pansexual, etc. : the state of being bisexual, straight, gay, pansexual, etc." That is their definition of sexual orientation.

  30.  @AdamRitchie2  " The point of the bill is stop secret sex talks with 5 year olds. Does this upset you?" These people did vote for creepy Joe Biden
    2
  31.  @jkarma3356  nowhere in the bill does it mention the word gay or any form of sexuality.
    2
  32.  @knavishknight  when did I say that?
    1
  33.  @knavishknight  I am not seeing it here. It is in another comment thread? And by what context?
    1
  34.  @223Drone  "This bill specifically targets LGBT people. " Ok, where? Point out the line in the text. I will wait.
    1
  35. And students walking out is a big reason why these bills are being pushed.
    1
  36.  @TwoForFlinchin1  no one said that was bad.
    1
  37.  @RadicalVelvet  a male teacher can still mention their husband. What they can't do is start talking about how some men love men and some men love women and so on.
    1
  38.  @TwoForFlinchin1  uh, easy. A male teacher can say they have a spouse. They may say it is a man. If the student asks why the teacher can easily say he wanted to marry him just like some people wanted to marry their spouse. End of conversation. No love mentioned no sexual orientation mentioned.
    1
  39.  @TwoForFlinchin1  ok, so if someone is not married, what does that imply? The bill is not vague.
    1
  40.  @ianalan4367  Ian, you have to be careful here. The democrats are going to confirm a SC justice that cannot define what a woman is.
    1
  41.  @cezarcatalin1406  the bill does not do any of what you said.
    1
  42.  @warriorwaitress7690  ok, and? I have a PhD and an MBA. So what's your point? Also, you bring up emotion. An intelligent person knows that when emotions go up, logic and reasoning go down. It seems like your daughter letting her emotions get away with her. Second, you bring up solidarity. OK, solidarity to who? She does not live in FL, she does not vote there, she does not pay taxes there, she does not understand and experience the culture there. Also, high chances she does not understand law there. If she does then you daughter needs to find a new life. Almost all lawyers do not know the laws of all states, they only worry about their own state. And how is this bill anit-LGBTQ? Where does it mention LGBTQ, gay, lesbian, etc.? There is example I am pointing out two things. One, she does not understand FL law. Next, she is letting emotions get away with her. In the entire bill there are essentially a couple of lines that talk about sexual orientation. The bill is around 7 pages long. Here are the two parts "prohibiting classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in certain grade levels or in a specified manner" and "Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age100 appropriate or developmentally appropriate" Ok, now where does this harm the LGBTQ community? "watch as hundreds of anti-LGBTQ bills are being introduced in dozens of states" Such as? "They're well aware of precisely what is in this law and the deeply harmful effects that their cohorts in Florida now face because of it." I doubt it. If they did they would not be reacting the way they did. To me what you daughter just did is most likely a great example of why we need such a law. I bet the teacher of her school coordinated this by claiming the bill was "don't say gay" and harmed the LGBTQ community when it did not. I bet the teacher of the school is using your kid, giving them misinformation to push the propaganda that the LGBTQ community is under attack and republicans are bad which is what so many on the right are concerned about creating such law. Schools should not be indoctrinating kids like that. "Have you ever bothered to consider that LGBTQ youth are more than 4 times as likely to attempt suicide as their peers? More than half of transgender youth seriously consider suicide. " And an argument is that trans individuals have a mental illness to begin with. When they can't accept their identity, or are confused in general they are of high risk of suicide to begin with. Mental illness is very challenging to deal with. But by ignoring one side of the argument by calling people transphobes is not going to progress us. "Not because there's something inherently dysfunctional about being LGBTQ," Well, actually, arguably there is something dysfunctional about them. Consider people who were very successful and loved in life that still commit suicide all across the board. Suicide is a very challenging topic. Why did Robin Williams commit suicide? He was well loved and successful. Why do homeless people not commit suicide despite being in pain and living in miserable conditions? You say I should question my intelligence but really, I question yours. Think about it, if you are a man who feel they are a woman, or think they are a woman, there is something wrong with you already mentally. As is then you are at risk of suicide overall. Also, with suicides, FL has one of the lowest suicide rates in the US. Now that is all suicides but it appears suicides are not a big deal in FL, which can arguably include suicides of LGBTQ people.

  43.  @TheTaco2222  being straight, or gay, or bi etc. is sexual orientation. It is how you are attracted to someone sexually. There are many men in my life I love because they are kind and caring, but I am not sexually attracted to them. So I am not gay or bi. That is the point.
    1
  44.  @DissociatedWomenIncorporated  romantically in what way? Sexually. With asexual people that is their sexuality. As for the non sexual aspect of a relationship, they overlap with friends. I like hanging out with other guys, I am not gay though as I am not sexually attractive to them.
    1
  45.  @gattaca5911  "so you agree the teacher can't say he is married to a man" Neither teacher should talk like that. A female teacher should not be saying she married man, woman, is single, etc.
    1
  46.  @arcadiaberger9204  there is some debate on if they should be using Mr. or Mrs. Some schools don't use them. Even at that most kids don't care about the difference between Mrs. and Miss. I recall during 1st grade that was brought up because our student teacher was Miss and our teacher was Mrs. When we asked it was simply brought up that she was not married and the teacher was. Did not say to who, just said they were married. On the black armband, that is allowed today. This isn't about making teachers robotic, there are restrictions on them.
    1
  47.  @frankkarvell  this is all in response to the op on free speech. My point is that teachers are restricted in what they can say.
    1
  48.  @frankkarvell  so I have to repeat myself to get you people to understand that this not a free speech issue. Now if you want to say it is about discrimination, where does the law discriminate?
    1
  49.  @paulomilan515  ok, now where in the bill does the word "gay" show up.
    1
  50.  @paulomilan515  the bill is titled "Parental Rights in Education"
    1
  51.  @j0j0dartiste21  it literally is what?
    1
  52.  @223Drone  what are you saying if you are saying you are gay?
    1
  53.  @j0j0dartiste21  some students have mental disabilities where they simply won't learn a lot of things. Special needs students exist for a reason.
    1
  54.  @trappedinamerica7740  some students develop differently and thus are taught differently.
    1
  55.  @j0j0dartiste21  in many ways there is not. Have you taught special needs students? Many are behind their typical grade level.
    1
  56.  @j0j0dartiste21  "if the parents consider that inappropriate they can sue because the term is vague and broad enough to apply to anything. " That is not true. If it were then you will have to expand it to a male teaching talking about their wife, or kids talking about their parents, etc.
    1
  57.  @RadicalVelvet  depends on the context in both cases. "You forget along with this bill is the myth that gay people now are universally "groomers" if they ever mention anything regarding not being straight" Where in the bill does it say that? The bill does not mention gay at all.
    1
  58.  @paulomilan515  same with CRT, the left is really pushing their propaganda and agenda on kids because kids are easier to convert. Also, restrictions on teachers like this should exist. During covid many parents saw what was being taught to kids and it alarmed them.
    1
  59.  @223Drone  ok, if you say you are gay, what are you saying? It also applies if a teacher says they are straight.
    1
  60.  @terrystevens3998  considering how Merriam Webster changed the definition of "anti vaxxer" to include those who are against vaccine mandate then yes, they are becoming sabotaged by the left like many other institutions. One can support vaccines but also oppose government power to mandate them. " I definitely don’t want you having any say in what the school teaches" Why not? What if teachers started reading 50 Shades of Gray to 2nd graders? Would you want to stop it? Yes, gay parents have parental rights. If gay parents want their kids to learn about being gay they can teach it, not relying on the schools. ", and to a child the idea of banning talking about this completely appropriate stuff in school means it’s bad" No, it means it is not age appropriate. We ban kids from driving, so do kids think driving is bad?
    1
  61.  @Greendalewitch  not only in theory, the courts will rule it like that.
    1
  62. There are certain things that are not taught at certain grade levels and schools in general.
    1
  63.  @223Drone  Here Teacher: "I am gay" Student: "What does that mean" Teacher: "Well, I am sexually attracted to the same sex" Student: "What do you mean by sexually attracted?" Do you not see a problem or Teacher: "I am gay" Student: "What does that mean?" Teacher: "It means I like the same who is the same gender as me" Student: "I have many friends I like that are the same gender as me, I am gay as well" You do not see a problem there?
    1
  64.  @j0j0dartiste21  so sexual orientation now only means gay?
    1
  65.  @j0j0dartiste21  and also includes what other sexual orientation?
