Should’ve been clearer by what I meant when I said ‘trans agenda’. See my post: How People Become Gay and Trans: It's not via role modeling or incitement (e.g. 'grooming') - #7 by island
I didn’t have sex ed until 7th grade and it made me uncomfortable for a number of reasons. My parents, my mother and my stepfather didn’t talk about it. He tried to once and it was weird, and I didn’t want to hear it.
I never liked my stepfather, he was a bully, but only to kids. And he was the principal of a grade school for many years. I knew this bartender in my early 40s and he suddenly realized, probably while I was still griping about all the BS I had to put up with in HS because of him, who I was talking about. He said, “you lived with that guy?” Yeah, he was my stepfather.
He proceeded to tell me how he was a troublemaker in 7th grade and wound up in his office many times. I won’t repeat exactly what he told me was said, but it’s the kind of put downs and confidence destroying things that should NEVER be told to a child! “You’re nothing. You’re a worthless piece of trash! You’ll never amount to anything.”
My stepfather’s father did the same thing to me, gets you alone and tears you down. I wanted to kill him. “Who are they gonna believe, me or YOU?” Then is all smiles like nothing happened at dinner. I didn’t find out until over 20 years later he had done the same thing to my brother. Ooh the rage! It’s like mental rape!
