Podcast: One Year Since the Supreme Court Ruled for LIFE
|
Recently, Governor Walz signed the Education Finance Bill which includes a provision requiring period products such as pads and tampons to be put in boys’ bathrooms in Minnesota public schools. Apparently there’s some confusion about this so let’s be clear: boys can’t have periods. Plus, Grace shares how a senior doctor at Children’s Minnesota equated dangerous transgender treatments for kids to diabetes and cancer care. Moses gives you both sides of the story on former President Trump’s indictment and both hosts discuss Mayo’s retaliation against a doctor who refused to bow down to “prescribed messaging” on trans athletes. Get the facts, stand for truth!

American Experiment: Survey Says Little Support For Teaching Gender Identity in Schools
|
By Catrin Wigfall - American Experiment
Seven percent of Americans believe it is suitable for early elementary schools to teach the concept of non-binary identity, according to a recent survey by PRRI reported on by MSN. Eleven percent of respondents said such teachings should be taught later in elementary school, 26 percent said in middle school, and 18 percent said in high school. Similarly, eight percent of respondents think it is appropriate to teach the concept of transgender identity in early elementary, 12 percent in later elementary, 27 percent in middle school, and 18 percent in high school.
The survey polled more than 5,000 Americans’ views on “gender identity and what is appropriate to teach in public schools with respect to sexual orientation and gender identity.” American public opinion on the topic has shifted over the past several years, “with a declining endorsement of gender ideology and a reaffirmation of the biological gender binary system,” continues MSN. |
