    I am so disgusted by parents who condonde the notion of being a transgender kid is ok. These 'YOUR''
    kids are in their frame of reference. Playing father and mother, or doctor and patient are role playing games
    to learn about the world! and you dickheads rob them of their childhood. Even in anno 1000 a girl of 12 years
    might be considered ready for marriage when she first bleeded down there, and in the times we are living in
    now 18 years is considered to be an adult age. Even young people of 21 can't get a frikking beer in a café or
    club in the States and you evil parents who have no clue how to raise kids to be emotionally rich and intelligent human beings,
    because you probably didn't had a good home, are closing your eyes for this next generation.
    You will pay for everything you do to your childeren. God sees everything.
    You might wanna look at stories of teenagers who are sorry and sad because they made the wrong choice.
    IF you have any experience in life you know that people often think the opposite when they grow up or when time passes,
    YOU parents have made an life altering decision for your own flesh and blood that will affect them for the rest of their life.
    They will break contact with you and commit suicide, many will, I can tell you that. Every human being should have a
    pure and rich sexual life and you destroyed that parents of transgender kids…….

    Just because your kids like things that are stereotypical for the opposite gender doesn't mean they are in the wrong body, noone could get my daughter to wear dresses she absolutely hates them but I wouldn't entertain this crazy idea that she's not a girl, and wtf is a girl brain

    Society has genderized clothing and colors to the point that if you like the other genders clothes and colors then we should consider hormone blockers and surgery for children? I think it's child abuse.

    This was 2015, it is now 2022. Trans kids are everywhere now, schools and parents are confusing our young people. Let's see what happens in 20 years.

    One of her parents is transgender too? What are the odds that a parent and child are transgender in the same household given the relatively small numbers. A step-parent too.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
