I’ve Moved!
November 20, 2008
So I’m sure that most people have noticed that the site has been offline for a few days. There’s a reason for that, which I will get to shortly. But first, let me just say this:
In fact, I am blogging at a new site I have just finished setting up: kennethhynek.net. A full explanation for the reasons behind the move can be found here
.
That said, this is not the end of Time Immortal. My wife Grace has expressed interest in taking over blogging at this domain, and I am working to make sure that she gets set up here as soon as possible.
Also, my profound apologies for the modification to the site face; the move was not as seamless as I would have hoped, and many of the image files for this theme, and in the gallery, were corrupted during the course of their evacuation from my previous web host’s servers. Until such time as I have repaired them, I’ve put a clean-looking template in place of the previous one.
Update: for the purposes of further traffic shaping, new posts from kennethhynek.net will be excerpted below. Full articles can be read at the new blog.
Schoolkids in California get to decide their own gender
January 2, 2008
And of course, parents aren’t to be informed about which gender their child decides s/he “really” is.
Forget everything you learned in kindergarten about the difference between boys and girls. According to Gov. Schwarzenegger and the California Legislature, schoolchildren can now choose their own sex.
I’m not talking about choosing “sexual behavior or sexual preferences.” Kids are going to be taught that they have the right to completely ignore their physical anatomy and choose the status of being “male” or “female.” [ ... ]
In October, California Senate Bill 777 was signed into law. Senate Bill 777 eliminates Education Code 212, which currently defines “sex” as “the biological condition or quality of being a male or female human being.” And worse yet, SB 777 redefines the term “gender” for all schoolchildren by adding Education Code 210.7, which will read: “‘Gender’ means sex, and includes a person’s gender identity and gender related appearance and behavior whether or not stereotypically associated with the person’s assigned sex at birth.” In short, this redefinition of gender states that you are what you choose to be regardless of your anatomical make-up.
Damnnable biology and anatomy…how sexist is nature? By causing children to develop sexual characteristics within the womb, thus denying them their right to choose that gender when in kindergarten, nature inflicts catastrophic damage on each and every child’s psyche, gender identity, and self-respect.
The Los Angeles Unified School District has already adopted policies allowing boys to use girls’ restrooms and locker rooms —- and vice versa!
Oh, yes…that isn’t going to get abused, is it?
This is agenda, pure and simple, and can have either or both of two intentions behind it. The first — and more dire, in my opinion — possibility is that this half-baked idea is being encouraged by homosexual lobby groups seeking to indoctrinate and recruit more children into the homosexual lifestyle. The second possibility is that this is a concerted effort by the California government and a collection of various interest groups to break down all sexual codes of ethics, to encourage children to engage in experimental sexual escapades with little or no regard to age or gender of participants.
I mean, hey…why not give boys and girls the opportunity to strip down in the same locker room? Who would ever worry that they might take the opportunity to hook up for a quickie? What could possibly go wrong in this paradigm?
