I'm sorry I have to admit my age here and ask a question

how can you score below a 21 on the ASVAB? I joined the USMC back in the late 1980's straight out of high school. My ASVAB score was 89 and I took it just because it got me out of class for half a day. I had no real intention of enlisting at that time. I enlisted in the Corps as a 1345 thats engineer mechanical operator and went to boot as an E2 the entire time I was there I got paid more than the 0300 grunts. Even they had to score higher than 21 to join the Marines. I am fairly sure you get 17 points just for writing your name on the top of the form and extra points if you don't eat the crayon. It wasn't my flavor so I returned it when I was done. I like grape, and it was red.

NEITHER are appropriate

you seem to be the one with the issue here

I only pointed out that they were getting treated differently

I did not claim one was better than the other.

you are the bigot here, I fully support their rights to do whatever they want in an appropriate locale

school is not the place for either

where is the bigotry? I said it was hypocritical not that they should or shouldn't be allowed

perhaps you need someone to read the original comment to you

not one comment claiming that they should or should not be allowed

in fact I was saying that the teacher was getting an unfair result since the other is allowed. No sexual activity or dress belongs in a classroom that is not sex ed. Not hetero, not gay, or any other kind. I am not bigoted I believe children should be protected from the world's troubles as long as we can so they get to grow up. If later one of them decided that they were going to be something else who would I be to tell them no. You have missed my point completely

how about

age appropriate clothing for a school class room?

we are talking about elementary age school children

I wouldn't want a man or a woman dressed in drag reading to my children

I truly don't care what you do on your time, I have repeatedly said I am not claiming any of this is right, only that its hypocritical

if that offends you well, maybe you should consider why it bothers you.

if said drag queen dressed in appropriate school clothes and not a provocative outfit designed to elicit a reaction, then let them read to the kids, with AGE APPROPRIATE material as well.

why is this difficult? children should not be forced into this discussion because they CAN BE" children should be protected and allowed to develop at a natural pace and allowed to make these kinds of decisions when they are older and better able to understand them.

ok first off 3rd line down

it says

and I am not saying this was right, just pointing out the hypocrisy of the situation

2nd

I find it disturbing you know the content of the video, where were you last night?

​

I've made no statement about it being men or women, simply that the drag queen show appears in our schools. I find it disturbing no matter which team you play for. It has no place in our schools, and its still HYPOCRITICAL to allow one and not the other when NEITHER belong there!

kind of a double standard don't ya think?

we have drag queens doing story time in schools

and I am not saying this was right, just pointing out the hypocrisy of the situation

but a video filmed after hours, when nobody was there is where they draw the line?

what's the point? the children are already hypersexualized and exposed to an endless stream of sexual content because if you call out anyone for doing this you become the bad person for saying maybe we shouldn't do this
