See I like to say I am the Atheist Christian sometimes. Lol. I have a lot of the same values as those are religious. It’s insane these days that to have any sanity or morality anymore you have to be considered a zealot. I am an atheist and I 100% agree with you. I am scared to what the world is going to be like if we continue like this.
I mean you can pretend to be a woman all you want but if you were born a man you are not a woman. Like the article of “Man Gives Birth”. It was a transgenderead man giving birth. A man does and can not and will not ever give birth. That is the way it is. When my 11 year old corrects me on what to say about he, she, they. It is troubling…. She is like that’s not what you say mom these days. Like what?!

Hello,

Happened along your post while looking into this subject as we are being faced with some issues in my family. I am a Christian and have always felt very strongly about gender roles.

But my 7 year old daughter—-she has always wanted to dress like a boy, has difficulty socially because she seems so confused about where she fits in- tends to try to play with boys. Always plays the male part in dramatic play. It is so heartbreaking to watch her struggle with these issues.

What is a mother to do? You truly cannot possibly understand until you are in these shoes. Talk about a spiritual war within.

Hey there!

I have kids that are right around the same ages as yours, so I totally hear you when it comes to being concerned about this subject.

I’m glad you were blessed by this! Thanks so much for commenting with such kind words!

I just wanted to take the time to tell you how much I appreciate how eloquently you put my exact jumbled thoughts when it comes to this topic! I have a son going into first grade this year, and a 3year old daughter, and have begun the mental hurdles for this topic to come up, with certain anxiety.
And as a Christian myself, I also appreciate that the tone of your post seemed very approachable from both “my” side and secular–something so rare to find, and id bet difficult to write so!
God bless!
