OK Schools Now Requiring “Biological Sex” Affidavits

OK Schools Now Requiring “Biological Sex” Affidavits

Changing America reports:

Student athletes at Oklahoma public schools are now required to complete “biological sex affidavits” to determine whether they are eligible to participate in athletics as school districts begin enforcing a state law.

In March, Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) signed into law the state’s “Save Women’s Sports Act,” which requires sports teams through college to be designated based on athletes’ “biological sex,” or sex assigned at birth.

In early July, the CBS-affiliate KOAM-TV  reported that some school districts were beginning to distribute “biological sex affidavits” to student athletes to enforce the law.

Their ultimate goal is to abolish transgenderism entirely, along with other forms of “gender treachery,” i.e. homosexuality.

In my 55 years on earth, I dont remember Republicans giving a crap about woman’s sports. I guess it took transgendered athletes to finally make them care.

This. My couldn’t-care-less-about-any-sports in the 30 years I’ve known him BIL (more an outdoor / photography / camping guy) suddenly started protesting to “save women’s sports” last year. The biggest farce I’ve ever seen – it was clear GQP talking points..

It’s not like they’re going to support or even watch, though.

They still do not care, the number of athletes involved is something like .000001%

i’ll bet that banning women from women’s sports measure doesn’t include any additional funding for women’s sports, however.

they don’t give a fuck about women’s sports and only care about hurting trans people.

Are they going to do genetic testing for every child to confirm it? Are they going to pay for it? Isn’t there a HIPAA thing or is that out in Oklahoma?

If they do genetic testing, they’re going to find there’s a lot more diversity in genetic sex than allowed for in their magic book of myths.

After all the coverage of Lauren Hubbard, a trans woman weightlifter competing in the Olympics, she didn’t make a single lift when she’s in her prime age as a weightlifter and got clobbered by Li Wenwen, a 21 year old Chinese lifter who won her weight class (over 81 kg) on her first lift. She’s really a kid in the grand scheme of weightlifting and unless she gets injured, can compete in another 4 Olympics. You peak in your mid 30’s.

I’m pretty sure they went with the birth certificate as an end run around HIPAA. The birth certificate counts as state record, rather than medical record. And, no, they’re no going to pay for it.

Does this mean that transmen will now be competing in women’s sports? Or is it just a way to keep transgender people from competing in any sports at all? I think we know the answer to that…

Gregory In Seattle Sister_Bertrille • 2 hours ago

The telling point is: will this apply equally to men’s sports as well? What if a high school’s star quarterback refuses to file such a document on general principles?

April Smith Gregory In Seattle • an hour ago • edited

I think it’s just girl’s sports. To them it’s all about the obsession with trans girls and women.

But some brave Transman should call their bluff. If it’s all “biological” they should be on the girl’s team and watch them dominate the competition.

Gregory In Seattle April Smith • 39 minutes ago

So the linked article is incorrect, and this will apply ONLY to (presumed) female students and not all students? That could be a problem if (presumed) male students are exempted, as that directly violates Title IX.

clay April Smith • an hour ago

According to the (incomplete) excerpt Joann Prinzivalli provided, it only applies to girls sports.

They have a law on that too. Oklahoma banned the issuing of non-binary birth certificates.

Putin Revives Soviet-Era “Patriotic Education” Program

Putin Revives Soviet-Era “Patriotic Education” Program

Florida has already done this.  I wonder how long until every red state has these fake history US exceptionalism requirements?   Hugs

The Sunday Times reports:

Russian students heading back to school in the autumn will be taught about the country’s values amid the Kremlin’s wider campaign to implement “patriotic” education in schools.

Starting from September 5, schools across the country will dedicate hours to so-called “conversations about important things”, Sergei Novikov, head of the presidential directorate for social projects, told Tass, the state news agency.

These “conversations” would focus on the values of Russian society as enshrined in the country’s national security strategy, he said.

Florida to schools: Don’t follow federal LGBTQ protections

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/florida-schools-follow-federal-lgbtq-protections-87640481

The DeathSantis kingdom of Florida.   DeathSantis is the warlord / feudal lord who wants to be king of the country.   He thinks his kingdom is above the federal government.   He has fought Biden on every measure to protect the public from Covid going so far as to demand businesses not follow federal rules then either.  No matter how the courts ruled against him like his mentor TFG he claimed he won and was still the king.   Hugs

Florida is advising school districts to ignore protections for LGBTQ students that President Joe Biden’s administration is trying to implement

ByBRENDAN FARRINGTON Associated Press

Florida advised school districts to ignore protections for LGBTQ students that President Joe Biden’s administration is trying to implement, saying the anti-discrimination language is not binding law and following the guidance could result in breaking state law.

Florida Education Commissioner Manny Diaz wrote to school districts Thursday saying they should not change current practices because of proposed new rules under Title IX that would extend sexual discrimination protections to students based on their gender identity or sexual orientation.

“Nothing in these guidance documents requires you to give biological males who identify as female access to female bathrooms, locker rooms, or dorms … or to allow biological males who identify as female to compete on female sports teams,” Diaz said.

He added that doing any of those things would “jeopardize the safety and wellbeing of Florida students and risk violating Florida law.”

But Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried, the only statewide elected Democrat and whose agency overseas school lunch programs, said the matter wasn’t just about bathrooms, but also about feeding students. The United States Department of Agriculture requires schools to put up a poster on nondiscrimination in order to receive federal money for lunch programs, she said.

“This is a fictitious culture war that they have created that is going to deny kids food,” Fried, who hopes to challenge Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, said at a news conference. “I will do everything possible to ensure that Florida’s kids are not victimized by the DeSantis administration and denied their meals.”

Fried’s department recently told schools they should hang posters with the new language. The Diaz letter told schools to disregard that guidance because it could violate state law.

Last year, DeSantis signed a bill banning anyone assigned male at birth from participating in girls’ or women’s sports. This year, he signed a bill that prohibits discussion of gender identity or sexual orientation in public schools at least through grade 3.

Earlier this month, a federal judge in Tennessee blocked implementation of the proposed new federal protections after 20 states sued over the issue.

Their public schools are already cratering (by design for privatization) because the teachers are retiring and leaving in droves, leaving a massive deficit – they’re hiring veterans with no teaching experience at dozens of elementary schools (and that’s just one example)

Take the Fed money, follow the Fed rules.

Unless you are a religion, and the last time I checked, Florida’s public schools are not religious institutions…yet.

clay  Gustav2  2 days ago

The (public) schools need both federal and state dollars. The FL DoEd under DeSantis doesn’t give shit the bind that they’ve created for the schools or the students. They’re just in a partisan pissing match.

When I was younger, I thought, well, I’ll wait until the prejudice old people die off, then maybe retire to Florida. Sadly, I’m a senior now, and nothing has changed in that state. It’s like hate, prejudice, and religion really kick in down there when someone turns 50.

 

Gab CEO: Christians Will “Take Dominion” Over You

Gab CEO: Christians Will “Take Dominion” Over You

Well he is saying the quiet part out loud and proud.   Over you!!   In the name of their Jesus!   They will discipline this nation, meaning us that are not religious fanatics like them or follow their church doctrines.    Wonder if we will all have to go to church, their church of course?  What about other religious faiths, will they be allowed?   I already know the Jewish faith is a no-no for them.    I already know what will happen to my people.  How are you at dodging large stones?    This is the American Taliban folks.   They have seen how it worked in Afghanistan and they liked it.   They are the US ISIS, those who would rule by their religion with force.    Hugs

Via email from Gab CEO Andrew Torba:

We are forming a Christian Nationalist movement and in order to be in any position of influence or leadership in the movement you must be a Christian.

We are no longer going to answer to people who do not share our values and represent a diametrically different worldview that only 2% of the country holds.

We are the 70%+ super majority in this country and we are going to do everything we can to take dominion and disciple this nation for the glory of Jesus Christ our King.

As I have said in my previous articles and videos they have pushed us too far by locking down our churches, masking our children, and forcing us to inject a foreign substance in our bodies in order to keep our jobs.

We are no longer being silent. The silent majority is getting loud and speaking the Truth of God’s Word and the Biblical worldview boldly.

The email ends, as they all do, with a money beg. Jesus needs money. Always.

“We are no longer being silent.”

When in the long history of Christianity have Christians been silent? When has the imposition of their private beliefs on public law not been their goal? When have christians not insinuated themselves into positions of power favoring other Christians for positions below them? When have Christians not steered public dollars to private pockets?

The Republican war on women has escalated on recent weeks. Radical Right Republicans candidates Matt Birk and J.D.

The candidates’ despicable statements included telling women to stick with their violent spouses, and warning that abortion can lead to women having careers. The horror!

No sex ed in Florida’s largest school district this year, says school board member

Remember this was for older kids, and the parents could have just withdrawn from the classes.  At the school board hearing there was 38 parents / students who wanted the books used and the classes given.  Four parents were against it and only three of them spoke.   Yet the maga minority got their way.  Because of the way the law is written any parent can sue and get big money from the school district and the school personal personally.   Same as the abortion laws, designed to cast fear of ruin for doing what the maga minority disapproves of.   Hugs
