Woke Colorado university tells students to ‘assume’ everyone is ‘transgender’ – LifeSite

(LifeSiteNews) — Over the past several years, a frequent response I have gotten to one of my columns has been disbelief. Is that really true? someone will respond on social media. You’ve got to be exaggerating. This doesn’t irritate me in the slightest, as many of the stories I’ve had to write in the last half-decade would have been considered insane circa 2010 and downright unbelievable around the year 2000. Despite that, progressives carry on as if what we are seeing unfold around us is not only normal, but good. 

The complete colonization of academia by the transgender movement, for example, has been wild to witness. The norms of millennia have been replaced by the tenets of gender ideology, and now officials at the University of Colorado Boulder have announced, in their “pronouns guide,” that people should assume those they meet are transgender unless explicitly told otherwise. According to the guide: 

Sometimes people just don’t want to share their pronouns and that’s fine. Usually it’s safe to use they/them/theirs unless that person tells you otherwise. It is never safe to assume someone’s gender and living a life where people will naturally assume the correct pronouns for you is a privilege that not everyone experiences.

Remember “white privilege”? Well, “pronoun privilege” is so much more potent. If you grew up being called “he” and “him” and that never facilitated a crisis because you needed “ze” and “zir” (pronouns the university endorses) hadn’t been made up yet, then check your privilege. The pronoun guide (which is a thing now) was created by the university’s “Pride Office” (which is also a thing now), staffed by people hired to deal with all things LGBT at Colorado’s largest university of more than 36,000 students. The university actually offers cross-sex hormone treatments and “sex changes” in case you’d like to be castrated while getting your degree and features “all-gender” restrooms and locker rooms. 

The pronoun guide offers indispensable advice like this: “Ze is pronounced like Americans pronounce the letter ‘z,’ like ‘zee. Hir is pronounced like ‘here’ and hirs is similar, but with an ‘s’ on the end. There are many, many more than these out in the world. These are simply the most common. If you want to see more, Google is your best friend.” Not using these pronouns if they are requested, the guide warns, “is not only an act of oppression can also be considered an act of violence.” A spokesperson from the university also warned that “misgendering people, whether intentionally or not, can cause harm.”

With Drag Queens now targeting babies in a quest to normalize their degeneracy, it’s time for our lawmakers to ensure children in society are legally protected from this grooming.

SIGN: Drag Shows for children must be outlawed

“Burlesque for Babies” is the latest depraved iteration of the Drag Queen Story Hours that have targeted children across the western world. 

This involves woke parents taking their babies and toddlers to watch grown men, invariably wearing high-heels, make-up and little else, dance inappropriately for attention, gratification, money and grooming.

If you don’t believe us, just watch what this pro-LGBT commentator has to say (WARNING – graphic content): 

This is nothing less than grooming – an attempt by perverted men to sexualize children with erotic dancing.

SIGN & SHARE: Lawmakers must end the grooming of children by Drag Queens

How else can we describe half-naked men “twerking” in front of babies, if not by calling it “grooming”?

Aside from the degenerate men wanting to sexually perform for children, the other major culprits are of course the parents who bring their children to see them, tacitly endorsing the bondage outfits and overt perversion to allow these drag queens fulfill their sadomasochistic dreams with children. 

Any adult who wants to be naked, or close to naked, in front of children is an immediate threat to young people, which is why lawmakers must do everything to combat this degeneracy before it’s normalized.

Normalization is, of course, the goal of the LGBTQ movement, and that’s why we have to push back now.

SIGN: “Burlesque for Babies” and Drag shows for kids must be outlawed

Please SHARE this petition with as many people as possible before we send it to your politicians.

If you’ve never heard of “ze” and “zir” because you’re too busy getting ready for classes and haven’t boned up on the pronouns guide yet and you meet zir and don’t know what pronouns to use, you may be guilty of perpetrating violence and causing harm. That’s not according to me—that’s right from the Pride Office, which now runs the show. University is more stressful these days than it used to be. 

And to those of you who are thinking that campuses are always cults of crazy, I would remind you that we all live on campus now. This isn’t just universities—our governments have the same policy. And if it seems insane to you that a public university released a guide telling students to assume those that they meet are transgender unless they are told otherwise, I remind you that this policy isn’t nearly as insane as other proposals. One trans activist, for example, recently suggested that because not all children have chosen their gender yet, we should put all kids on puberty blockers until they’ve worked out what their gender is. 

That is probably a bridge too far, but I’m glad I don’t live in California anyway.
