Girl Guys?
What if it's a boy who identifies as a girl who identifies as a boy?

I guess you'd have to call that your inner self channeling your inner self.
Girl Guides has an identity issue to deal with. Scouts Canada has been fully co-ed and accepting of anyone so long as they have belief in a supreme being of some sort.
Guides has been a closed shop. Despite many men wanting to participate in the development of their children, it is forbidden. I think this is due to the belief that only men can be abusers. Another thought for this might be that men are not needed in the lives of women.
How would I know what they do - I'm not invited!
The idea of a man joining their organization in any way shakes them to their core.
In the end, I guess this goes to what is the defining characteristic of a being female.
Posted by: Geoff at January 27, 2012 10:58 AMI predict a lot of newly transgendered transchronologists (i.e. old men claiming to be young girls) will begin joining. "No, really, I'm a little girl trapped in an old man's body."
Posted by: grok at January 27, 2012 10:59 AMCan,t those Sun idiots get any credible guests, they have to talk to each other? By the way, can anybody truthfully say they can stand listening to Levant for more than 30 seconds?
Posted by: Phil at January 27, 2012 11:14 AMI don't know why people like Coren and Lilly buy into the Leftist agenda by accepting the use of terms such as 'trans-gendered' as though such terms had any legitimacy when they have none.
The people in question are mentally disturbed males or females, there is no such thing as 'trans-gendered', it is politically motivated nonsense bafflegabble.
Phil,
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
I don't know why the moderators of this blog don't make more of an effort to delete troll posts and ban trolls.

I'm sure the CBC would have no problem finding "credible" guests to talk about transgendered issues. Being fully staffed with every kind of subversive leftist special interest group that tax payer's money can buy they would only need to call up the guy in the dress who works in their mail room. And if they can't find a particular special interest group member who works in the building I'm sure they have all kinds of them on speed dial. If they changed the sign out front of the CBC building to read ONTARIO MENTAL HOSPITAL it would be hard for most people to tell the difference between the people who staff the CBC and the crazy people in a psych ward who spend their days talking to themselves while smearing their bodies with their own feces.
Posted by: Robert L at January 27, 2012 11:43 AMPhil, I can hear your mom calling you to come upstairs for lunch from here. Close those other sites you have open, before your sister (with whom you still share a bunkbed with) sees them, pull up your spiderman boxers and go eat your PBJ(with crusts removed)before it gets soggy...
Posted by: bethesdaguy at January 27, 2012 11:48 AMGender politics and political correctness just has to infiltrate into every nook and cranny, doesn't it? Gaia forbid that children just concentrate on figuring out who they are without the assistance of neurotic progressives who impose their post-modern ideology on kids before puberty. For instance, many tomboys (like me), had no interest in girly things as a child but grew more feminine over time. How much of childhood tomboy or girly behavior is just a phase or the environment you are raised in and not a gender mismatch? Kids do not need to have these issues figured out by 10 and adults should just back off and let thing progress in their own manner.
On a lighter note, just imagine all of the new merit badges that could be created if 'trans-gendered' children were officially recognized and integrated into the Girl Guides. Although the more likely outcome is a drop in membership - not because of bigotry but because the organization has become a psuedo-political organization.

"I just screwed some antlers into my skull; I'm a stag now. I'm here. I'm deer. Get used to it."
Posted by: Gen. Lee Wright at January 27, 2012 12:06 PMGeoff, agreed.
"The idea of a man joining their organization in any way shakes them to their core."
As an instructor, I teach at various Colleges and the female to male ratio of support staff and teachers is quite lob sided.
The males that are there on staff are either effeminate or radical/atheistic.
Universities on the other hand are the opposite. Heavy with males...males that live on a different planet.

Posted by: Mississauga Matt at January 27, 2012 12:23 PMThe girl scouts have definitely become too political for my tastes. I would think that one of the big reasons parents put their daughters into programs like the former girl scouts is to teach them that not everything connected to femininity revolves around sex. That there are other female role models besides Lady Gaga and Snooki. Perhaps it is time conservative parents in Canada take a good look at American Heritage Girls, a program started by former girl scouts who wished to retain the Christian values of the original girl scout program.

I really don't think it is about man haters. The best mentor for someone of a particular sex is someone of that sex. How's the US black population getting along without males in the home? The prisons are full.
If you can't participate in the development of your daughter in the 406 hours per week she is not at guides, seek help.
Posted by: Scar at January 27, 2012 1:39 PMRe new badges:
how about a badge for "tucking and taping"?
"If you can't participate in the development of your daughter in the 406 hours per week she is not at guides, seek help."
Not to put too fine a point on it, Scar, but how many hours per week is this daughter at Guides? By my calculations, with 406 hours spent outside Guides/week, that leaves only around 32 hours/day at Guides (assuming she goes only once per week) meaning she can't be there for a full day each week...right?

I'm usually unavailable to watch Ezra at the early time, so I sometimes stay up late to watch (and listen, with pleasure) to him. I'm available to watch The Source early today. So, Phil, thanks for the reminder!
Ezra's done more investigative reporting on issues of crucial interest to the citizenry of this country than all of the politically correct, connected to the PC Ponzi scheme, consensus media put together. He speaks truth about the corrupt and powerful. What a change for the media of this “deranged dominion”. Go, Ezra, go!
General Wright makes a good point. If a man presents at a psychiatrist insisting he is a wolf trapped in a human body they give him psychotherapy and drugs to help him understand he is in fact a human being. They don't say, "You're right, you're suffering from Lycanthropic dismorphia and here is a drug to help your hair grow out like fur." For some unexplained reason, this is not what is done when a man insists he is really a woman.
Posted by: Windy Wilson at January 27, 2012 5:02 PMThe left as usual killing any thing that smells of decency right at its root . You can bet the higher ups that initiated this are connected to the radical gay GLBT agenda. You know the ones who want to teach anus intercourse to seven years old in Ontario schools without parents permission.
Posted by: Revnant Dream at January 27, 2012 5:10 PMIt's bad enough that organizations like the Scouts and Guides had a terrible record for attracting child molestors -- who they are finally beginning to screen out -- so now somebody gets the bright idea to replace the pedophilia problem with the gender confusion problem. Brilliant!
The genius of our self-appointed sexual engineers! Hey, maybe they should apply the same solution in dealing with homosexual pedophile priests in the Catholic church -- replace them with tranny priests, and that should fix the problem of sexual dissimulation once for all!
Who said that replacing confusion with more confusion doesn't work? Well, they were wrong because it certainly works for the purposes of class warfare, and the necessary generalized moral breakdown of society leading to anarchy and a successful Marxist/fascist revolution.

Figuratively speaking??? Math's hard.
Posted by: Scar at January 27, 2012 6:22 PMThe most disconcerting aspect of the Gender Spectrum curriculum and the doctrine behind transgenderism being taught from K -12 is that it is based on the research conducted by Kinsey and Freud who asserted that everyone is bisexual at least until puberty when bisexuality, for most, then becomes latent. It is also based on Lisa Diamonds research that states that human sexuality is fluid and exists on a continuum - in other words sexual orientation can and does change - except if your homsexual, if one goes from being homosexual to straight then straight was the true orientation; however, this does not hold true for lesbians who are more likely to be sexually fluid.
Sexual fluidity is the new paradigm that both the APA and many LGBTQ groups hold as the authoritative doctrine on human sexuality and is deemed as a healthy view of sexuality.
"Given the fact that there is no single homosexuality switch, no distinctive network of genes or neural anatomy that makes somebody gay or straight, it seems much more likely that sexuality is a biological continuum. I wonder, though, if this "sexual fluidity" is really limited to women. My guess is that men are capable of being just as sexually fluid, but that our culture gets in the way."
In other words culture gets in the way of people choosing which sexual orientation they desire to embrace at any given point during their lifetime, which is why there is an emphasis on heterosexism, a significant part of the gender spectrum curriculum. What the curriculum is subtly teaching children is to go out and experiment with your sexuality with both sexes - role play in the real world.
het·er·o·sex·ism
noun /ˌhetərōˈsekˌsizəm/
Discrimination or prejudice against homosexuals on the assumption that heterosexuality is the normal sexual orientation.

Posted by: Ken (Kulak) at January 27, 2012 9:14 PMChildren with inter-sexed conditions (ambiguous genitalia) or Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, both rare conditions, need to be accommodated. Cross dressers are another matter altogether. How are the girl guide leaders supposed to determine whether a child is a cross dresser, transvestite, or transgendered? Parents word, psychological evaluation or both?

BULLSHIT!
If you have a Y chromosome you are male, if you don't you are female.
Deal with it.
Could not give a ghost of a shit about your link.
Bottom Line: It is far past time that the tail stopped wagging the dog.
Accomodation would be...GET USED TO YOUR LOT IN LIFE child your chromosomes determine what you are, not your abnormal psychology.
Oz - DR. Judith Reisman exposes the fraudulent work by Kinsey and the extremely unethical sexual experimentation he did on children and infants. She exposes the sexualization of children and the agenda of the sexual elitists.
The first link was from a website that helps explain what is meant by sexual fluidity. I did not state that I was in agreement with the theory, on the contrary.
A child with Androgen Sensitivity Syndrome who is genetically male (has one X and one Y chromosome) is resistant to male hormones called androgens. As a result, the person has some or all of the physical characteristics of a woman, despite having the genetic makeup of a man. It's not the same as being inter-sexed (formerly hermaphrodite conditions)where a person has ambiguous genitalia (ie: testicles, yet they may also have a uterus or develop breasts).
