When will the Republican party learn that you can't legislate your way back to the 1950s.  Especially not the 'rose tinted glasses' version of the 50s that they masturbate too.
And then later we will find out about another LGBTQ lawmaker outed while voting for this bill. >

Your damn right but I would like propose the idea that men sleeping with men or women sleeping with women, or cross dressing, or a person who sleeps with either men or women, does not necessarily make someone LGBTQIA. 
Being LGBTIQA is a culture, with its own language, its own forms of art, its own politics, its own traditions, and its own history of struggle etc. 
I've known and met several people over my lifetime who do not identify with the LGBTIQA community. 
Some have even been wrongly been hired/ appointed into LGBTIQQA leadership positions but have zero clue about oppression and its impact on numerous aspects of quality of life or how to respond to it. So you end up with a bunch of performative, busy activities that look good on paper but have little impact on actually improving the economic and daily material lives of the individuals they are suppose to be helping. >

I don't know why you picked this thread for your random irrelevant shower thought >

If a lifetime's worth of exposure to heterosexual relationships in reality, books, TV, movies, and radio isn't enough to keep little Timmy straight,  a couple of books or discussions in school isn't going to be the tipping point for him "going gay." >

They are conservatives, it’s not about reality, it’s about their feelings.  
Reality is constantly changing, if your not, it’s because your emotional attachments not your rational decision.  Rational is changing as reality changes.  
If the tide comes in, you move inland unless your emotionally attached to that spot on the beach and then you just hold your breath and hope the tide goes back down before you drown. >

These two bills aren't the bills to watch out for as a Texas resident I have to stay on top of what these fucking idiots are doing. Recently there was a bill filed by a Texas representative that would be Florida's don't say gay bill on steroids. The state legislature continually attacks everybody else's freedom of speech and expression while codifying their religious beliefs clearly in violation of the Constitution. >


Two bills that would ban classroom instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity in Texas public schools before certain grade levels

Fucks' sakes', would it kill a reporter to accurately report.
One of these bills bans mention of orientation or gender identity before fifth grade "or in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.
The other bans the same things before eight grade "or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate"
And then neither or them define what age or developmentally appropriate actually is, which means talking about LGBT issues is banned entirely, at every grade level. >

Of course not. Vague is good for selective enforcement.
The whole point of these laws is to apply self-censorship (aka "chilling effect) on people like teachers. They will have to tip-toe around with these laws, and err very much in side of caution.
Meaning school will put up rules like "No talk about LGBT under any circumstances, even when asked directly", just to avoid things like frivolous but costly lawsuits.
Other type are "out the kids to parents ASAP" bills, which can come with similar coercion, where not reporting can lead to some sort of legal action. >

TX HB 631. and TX HB 1155. 
Just read these, and they are all about outing students to parents and not saying gay in the classroom.
Friendly reminder to all LGBT and allies: "Straight" is a sexual orientation, and "Cis" is a gender identity. Be sure to report those wedding rings and other signs of straight relationships, and be sure to complain when teachers do that "pink for girls, blue for boys" thing, or use books with a Mom and Dad nuclear family in them.
Remember, it's up to you to help enforce the law. >

no alshually gender is when a gay gays >

Texas was already on my list of states to never ever teach in and is just further and further cementing its place >

Don't say gay is spreading
