University looking for gender diverse kids to play with transgender dolls for research

I think this is not only stupid, but it's also gender bending children who wouldn't have a mind to think that way if left alone.

The University of Minnesota wants parents of 'gender diverse' children aged 5-10 to play with transgender dolls for research.  The dolls come with genitalia and sex organs.   

Five year olds don't know anything about being 'trans' unless some adult with an agenda put it in their head.

And little kids, aged 5-10,  don't need dolls with sex organs to play with.

University Looking For Gender Diverse Kids to Play with Transgender Dolls for Research

The University of Minnesota (UMN) is offering to pay parents of transgender and "gender diverse" children to have their kids play with unconventional dolls, complete with genitals and sex organs.  


"We are looking to hear from transgender and gender diverse children between the ages of 5 and 10 years old and their parents about a new hands-on activity to help talk about gender and bodies," the National Center for Gender Spectrum Health (NCGSH) at UMN wrote on Instagram earlier this year.

People are catching the wrong things on fire lately...

Seriously.

Hmm, are we going to find out Tim Walz is funding these grants?? Only half kidding, which startles me a bit.

When I was little, my action men never had any bits...pretty much the definition of gender diverse you would have thought...

Do the dolls pee-pee? Five year olds know what is supposed to happen down there. It's not "sex" stuff from their perspective.

They're preparing for the next Democrat President.

And these kids will probably be the next generation Amazon warehouse workers.


"yay-ya you can do that"

So if you get permission from the parents, it's not a felony to promote sexual behavior among pre teens playing with simulated genitalia on their toys while supervised by highly professional, clinical adults who made it their life's work to study such behaviors.

Make it make sense.

No gender is the opposite of gender diverse. Which is perfect for toys which aren't designed to elicit any sexual response. Which is perfect for minors who have no business touching anything remotely associated with sexual themes. I'm aware barbie has boobs and that's not a great design choice but nothing I would write my senator about.

So basically, I did a quick search on Google Images fro "MyGender Dolls" and aside from one image showing a Barbie riding a Teddy Bear, it was pretty tame and harmless.

Some kids enjoy playing dress up with dolls, some go on to be balanced healthy people, others becoem obsessed with fashion and wigs for self expression, some grow out of it and move on to other interests.

Several decades ago there was a big to-do about a certain doll that projected a "beauty standard" with big puffy lips and the next thing we know, girls with poor self image were getting lip injections to try and recreate the "look".

Same thing with tradition Barbies....the variations of that particular line go into the Stratosphere as far as variations and accessories go.

It's all about sales and marketing....and, in extreme cases, the poor lost souls who make dress up and cosmetic surgeries their life at great expense and cost....but deisgners and the industry loves them. Nothing like getting sewn into an outfit and spending your days handstitching each individual sequin and bead.

I did see one female doll that was pretty cool, she had a New Wave haircut...short, edgy and all that.

I suppose without seeing exactly WHICH dolls are being used for the Group Dynamic, all we can do is speculate and create phantasms in our minds. Just because they're "anatmoically correct" doen't immediately mean they're erect and vulgar, but then again, it wouldn't surprise me if some groups are being exposed to Adult Toys.

Different children develop at different ages with different ideas....it just seems in certain areas, these interests are catered to, and in others, they're harshly punished. Nature vs Nuture and all that kind of thing.

Moderation is the key, but just because a group of kids are playing with dolls doens't mean they're being groomed, unless of course, you're still turning a blind eye to the fashion, makeup, clothing and entertainment industries.

Opinions.

We has them.


ETA:

From the Article :

Created by transgender and gender diverse artists, MyGender Dolls are sets of two-dimensional dolls with accompanying internal sex organs and external genitals.

So basically, they're paper dolls at these Universities and not plastic ones.

So, that's a little tidbit I glossed over reading the article the first time.

I don't know if we're getting the same imagery and video on the page or not, but my version of things is a community holding banners against sex change surgeries and masectomies for minors....more about accepting the body they're born in and not falling victim to the unethical minds, hearts and hands of opportunists out to disfigure, corrupt and groom the youth.

If your experience varies on this issue, I'd love to know because redirects really grind my gears and these days, ya never can tell.

Hopefully the university gets its federal funding cut if they continue this twisted lunacy aimed at kids.



January can’t come soon enough.

Yeah anything else would have just gotten in the way of the fantastic recreations of where eagles dare my action men were doing from the sofa to the fireplace.

Then why would a big time university be sponsoring this? 😊

From University of Washington:

"Since sexual behavior is learned, in
most cases it is the result of what children have seen or experienced. Children may see sexual behavior
of parents, older siblings or baby sitters, or on television and in magazines. Some children who are
sexually abused act out sexually or become sexualized. "

Sounds like a lot grooming going on at the University of Minnesota.

At least the Department of Education has dropped its case to make transgender atheletes acceptable and protected by law.

The Biden administration added more judges than the Trump administration did, because Democrats are anticipating a lot of challenges, and will need liberal screwball judges to overturn what Trump does.

Fake "research" by deviant sex groomers out to "prove" a predetermined conclusion that tranny indoctrination of children is all good and normal, as opposed to the FACT that it is mental illness and adults doing this to kids should be in JAIL.

This quote is from the article you linked.

The dolls are intended to be used by a "gender competent therapist" who works with young children and adolescents for the purpose of "gender exploration."

Now. Why would little kids need "gender exploration"

I was thinking back to when I was a kid, it wasn't even a question. Nobody I went to school with was like this nobody was "questioning" their gender or dressing up as the opposite sex. Gender was just NOT a topic of conversation or contemplation AT ALL it seems until one group of people decided to turn it into a political identity group and movement. I mean, even in HIGH SCHOOL [and I'm 37 guys, so just like 20 years ago] NOBODY was even talking about gender whatsoever.

"Gender exploration" sounds like something adults do in the privacy of their bedroom. Not something little kids would even be thinking about AT ALL unless someone [an adult] brought it to their attention.

Members who are older than me..........was gender even a topic of conversation among you and your school mates whatsoever? Did you even ever THINK about your gender or was it just a matter of fact to you, like it was to my peers 20 years ago?

Ok. We have adults wanting to watch children play with dolls with correct anatomy down there? Is this a test of bad parenting if you let your kid do this?

At 5 to 10, dolls are just people. Not sexual instruction devices.

Probably because more and more children are being born that are exhibiting behaviours and expressing themselves in a fashion that has parents concerned, and instead of beating them into submission and psychologically abusing them, they're looking to find a healthy way for these children to express their curiousity about the human experience and coming to terms in their own way about what it means to be incarnated into a human body and to be happy with their "assignment" instead of being groomed to deny biological reality and attempt to "change" their bodies to closer approximate the gender they were born in naturally.

Too many young people these days (teenagers/twenty somethings) are lost in a world of Fantasy and Performative Fiction.

There is a healthy way, and then there is one that involves a lot of expensive surgeries, pain, suffering, and otehr very real and hard biological failings when one goes down the path of gender reassignment. I've seen horrible horrible things that have been done to folks wanting psuedopeni or psuedovaginas, and the realities and shortcomings of these elective surgeries from folks who have undergone them aren't always a "popular" as those who insist on "selling the fanatasy" to impressionable young people.

It's about letting children understand themselves and their bodies in a way that doesn't nessecitate puberty blockers, surgeries, etc...

Childhood is about exploration and teenage puberty can be even more uncomfortable with all the hormones, chemicals and so froth running through them wildly, and for some kids....it manifests in all sorts of devestating ways from drug and alochol addiction to becoming runaways and finding themselves at the mercies of others and the cold hard reality of city streets and yet another kind of predator.

My best guess is making sure the parents of these children experiencing such identity crisis or unconventional gender ideation feel safe at home, rather than running away into a world that will use and discard them without a moments hesistation once they've been "used up" and are no longer viable for whatever dark world they've found themselves stuck in for survival.

We had GI Joes, the girls had Barbie, Raggedy Anne and Andy.

Please, just leave children alone.

It's clearly pedophilia and sex grooming of kids under the cover of (fake) "research"

a reply to: GENERAL EYES

Are there any provable facts that show "more and more children are being born that are exhibiting behaviours and expressing themselves in a fashion that has parents concerned" ?? Or is this all based on fake concern and phony assumptions?
