For anyone curious and who wants the sauce, here is the link to the actual proposed changes. It is pretty transparent and accessible.

Jesus Christ fuck these GOP assholes so hard
They probably want that, so no.
How is anyone supposed to know anyone else’s pronouns without asking them?
Are the teachers supposed to check the genitals of their students at the beginning of the year?
Naked lessons… naked schools… that way the sneaky trans kids also cannot change during the year.
Zenra made some interesting videos on this topic. For college and adult students obviously.
But if everyone is naked, the poor boys will be distracted. I mean, they already veer off course when shoulders are out. I guess the only appropriate solution is to not have the girls at (naked) school. /s
I’m an ankle guy myself
Oh excellent point. All naked boys only and girls only schools. That will definitely resolve the issue and has no chance to backfire.
Any gay people 🤮 will be in conversion camps far away from our darling children. So no problems there. /s
If you never speak about that individual, you won’t need to know their pronouns. If they quit the backbiting and remembered the golden rule, they wouldn’t need to “use pronouns” but then they wouldn’t even be Republicans anymore.
These politicians love to create “problems to solve” instead of finding solutions to real problems we have.
Lesson learned always use the wrong pronouns randomly so you don’t have to worry about it, who cares. Let’s everyone get together try to love one another right now!
Or just avoid using pronouns altogether lol, I believe they works for any pronoun
They their they’re
Our your we us them
I don’t think you understood what I meant. Let’s say Roger now identifies as a woman (but still kept the name Roger). If I never talked about to you about Roger, I wouldn’t have to use any pronouns at all because he and she are mostly used in the third person.
Roger
OK, maybe you do get it after all.
I feel like that’s what the right wants. They’re weirdly interested in that
Okay. Everyone is a they/them. No binary gender for anyone. Hedge your bets and play it right down the middle.
Problem solved
just stop using pronouns altogether easy fix
Romance movies from now on:
- “Love.”
- “Love, too.”
Ahh, the Ricky Henderson method. I like it
points at own pronouns Sorry, you’re a sex offender now for accepting my pronouns :3
Also apparently you’re now a teacher in Missouri. Given that place’s apparent eagerness to dilute the term “sex offender” to nothing, I suppose you may find this part more upsetting.
There is no “good conservative” alive today.
Maybe some of them need to be less alive
When the flip flopper in chief, Mitt Romney, is your only hope, or anyone named Cheney, we’ve got massive problems.
Not that I disagree with you.
But even as a staunch Euro leftist, I think it is okay that there are people I strongly disagree with, even strongly dislike because I think the fight for values that are against my personal morality.
Both Romney and Cheney are such people.
I don’t think they should have political power over other people.But they share at least a certain common ground with me that the fascists don’t.
And for how little I actually like those people, I still value this very difference.deleted by creator
Just give politicians prison time for wasteful laws like this. It’s objectively a waste of taxpayer’s dollars used to fuel hate crimes. Fuck them, they should get 100x the risk and accountability then the poor paycheck to paycheck teachers they keep overly focusing on.
I hate that these are usually rage bait titles, but this is legitimately terrifying
As a practical result this is more of an attack on education than an attack on LGBT, who would want to be a teacher under such tyrannical rules?
They’re getting two birds with one stone.
They complain about political correctness, and they go and do shit like this.
So much for dismantling the nanny state. EAIAC
Political correctness: I can’t say what I want!
Conservatives Later: it’s now illegal for you to say what you want
As is fascist tradition.
study to be a teacher in Missouri
teach full time for $30,000/year or something
become a sex offender, obviously can’t teach anymore
can’t actually find a job at all
forced to live in a designated trailer park for pedophiles
become a lifelong welfare recipientnice one, conservatives
Two years ago I would have said no worries, there’s no way a bill like this can pass. Now? Let’s just say I don’t take anything for granted.
Don’t like your teacher? Just flip your pronouns real quick and get them on the sex offender list. Problem solved.
Fuck this bullshit
What do you mean? Would a kid lie about their sex? Why mental health issues? Abuse? Clout? Trolling? What about if they are just confused? They would not become sex offenders or found guilty of anything for a honest mistake
I really can’t comprehend the level of hate that these motherfuckers must possess to write or support such a bill. I mean, let’s say you’re an incredible asshole who doesn’t think that trans people exist, like you think that you know who they are much better than they actually know themselves. Even with that as a baseline, isn’t it still just the polite thing to treat them with basic respect?
If I found out that someone I just met preferred to use their middle name instead of their first name, I would 100% use that person’s middle name when addressing them. It’s just common courtesy. The same thing goes with a person who’s transitioning - I will use their preferred name, because I’m not a completely deplorable piece of shit.
But this guy is way worse than someone who intentionally antagonizes people by using their disliked name when addressing them. This guy wants to actively punish anybody who has the rock bottom bare minimum of civility by destroying their lives and livelihoods.
I just can’t grasp that level of hatred. How is it that this piece of shit shares enough genes with everybody else that he’s recognized as human?
I think your 3rd paragraph is off, just a heads up
How so?
You know what, it took me having to quote your words to read them correctly, my bad and well said.
In the immortal words of Romeo: “It’s all gravy”, baby.
Was that directed at Juliet or Mercutio? I can never remember…
It was just before he drank the poison.
That must have been some really awful gravy, 😞
I vote we make all politicians sex offenders to see how they like it.
Most of them already are… but I get your point.
HAIRCUTS! HAIRCUTS OF THE WRONG GENDER ARE PART OF THIS BILL!!
Dafuq kinda haircut is gendered?
What if a boy or a trans girl wants to grow out their hair? At what point does the length become legally feminine?
Any haircut underneath which stands someone Republicans want to oppress.
Just ask Darryl George.
kim jong-un approves this law
