Was at a Target in San Antonio with my kids a few weeks ago standing in checkout line.

A dude in a dress and heels (and a 5 o'clock shadow) walks by.

My 8 year old daughter sees and asks me…"why is that man dressed like a girl?"

Not sure what to say, I respond with "it's his choice to dress that way. As long as he isn't hurting or bothering anybody, he can do what he wants, BUT grown men dressing like girls is NOT normal".

My 6 year old son said it was silly.

You would have seen me on the news if he was using the same bathroom at the same time as any of my young daughters.

Anyone else have similar experiences? How have you explained it to your kids?

This country……..

That's called "mainstream"

OP is lying. According to TV shows, commercials, and Disney 63.7% of your neighbors, coworkers, and restaurant waitstaff are trans.

You did good. I'd probably go with- "We'll talk about it when we get to the car."
-in car-
"That man is mentally ill and confused. His bad decision to dress like a woman does not make him a woman. Treat everyone with politeness, but tell mom or dad if anyone like that tries to talk to you, and never go anywhere someone like that tries to take you."

And if older, "Always remember, that what is right is not always popular, and what is popular is not always right. Some people think it's cool to encourage mental illness or act confused about being a woman, but it's not."

Are your children prodigies?

They know more biology than a Supreme Court nominee.

Yes, I saw it in the gas station in California the other day.

Some people truely do have a mental illness called gender disphoria. Others are pretending because they want attention in part of the fad. Their mental illness is no different than Rachel Dolezal or Jessica Krug. Pretending to be part of a marginalized group brings them social gratification.

The five o'clock shadow crowd is in the later catagory.

I would tell my grandkids he is playing dress up.

Don't shop at Target - they promoted this and they promoted he can use the same bathroom. What happened? Nothing people still kept shopping there.

10 pages, 4 bans.

Just tell the kids that this person is NOT a biologist.

A few months ago, I saw a 4 year old boy give a dude in a dress the biggest WTF that I have ever seen. Austin, TX

I would tell my kids he's mentally unstable and craves attention.

I wouldn't give Target a penny. They hate normal Americans.

OP, you should have replied, "Because he's ****ing weird, and needs to be in a hospital"

I know she's 8, but you've gotta start them with reality checks early in this society. Teach your kids how you want, but you simply CANNOT dismiss the topic that not everyone around them is good, polite or mentally stable in our world anymore.

I tell my children it's shameful for men to dress like a woman or for women to dress like a man.

It is called common sense and children do have them for it is as simple as 2 + 2 = 4.

And this is where liberalism distorts and or destroys common sense by indoctrination and lies.

I guess trans people are damned if they do and damned if they don't with this crowd. "Don't let trans people transition when they are young and might have a better outcome to fit in"… "eww, look at this manly looking trans person". You see why a trans person might want to transition while they are young so OP doesn't beat them up in the bathroom.

I still can't believe the state legislature spends all of their time thinking about stuff like this.

There's bigger fish to fry.

Yes. Was in Austin at a soccer tournament with my son. Went to the store for food to eat in the hotel. Same sort of deal a really masculine dude dressed in drag walks by. I nudged my son and said that chick is a dude……my so. Nearly tripped over his two feet looking back.

There team did well in the tournament but only really remembers seeing his first man/chick in public.

OP came across as very reasonable. Your post is typical leftist garbage where the OP didn't fully embrace the delusional man so therefore he must want to physically attack him. Ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as a grown man dressing as a woman.

This crap should be outlawed.

It was a mistake to give in on any of this.

I used to think 'just let people do what they want'.....

..but our kids are being exposed to this **** at 5 or 6 years old while simply shopping?

OUTRAGEOUS.

A new world is coming where this will NOT be allowed anymore.

I swear to work towards this the rest of my life....... even if I never see it come to fruition.

If the dude was dressing like that AND he had a 5 o,clock shadow…..maybe he lost a bet on the Aggies winning the NIT?

Just saying it's possible…

"That is a Biden voter. Democrats have a problem with reality, gender and pedophiles. Never vote for a democrat when you grow up, and remember to be careful around them, they have fragile feelings."

But in all seriousness, I think you handled it great, OP.

I'll take Wal-Mart people over Target people every day of the week.

Correct answer.

He is playing make believe.

I won't be this friendly. I'm going to immediately tell my kids that person is mentally I'll and to avoid them completely and to start screaming if they are approached.

Do you see that man dressed as a woman? That's just one of the many ways nature tells us "Do Not Touch!"

There used to be a guy that would shop in drag at the target on El Dorado in Frisco. He was married (to a woman) with kids that attended the same schools as ours. He had some fetish in that he loved dressing up as a woman, but otherwise lived a normal typical life. That was over 10 years ago. So who knows what has happened in that relationship.

One of my guys was asked to be the best man of his childhood and high school best friend. Stationed in AK he hadn't seen his pal for 8 years since graduation. So, the first time they saw each other was just before entering the "church" (Cali) for rehearsal. Good 'ol Larry was in transition to become Sally and introduced a rather larger woman (biker) to be his/her wife. And wife is what he/she said she was.

My guy was so pissed he left. Never serving as best man. Hasn't spoken to Sally since then that j know of. The team razzed him for a long time after.

"He's a very kinky girl,
the kind you don't take home to mother….."

It was classified as a mental disorder for decades based on research and experience. Now everything is woke, so it was hidden.

Given the Left's antics over the last decade such as
* getting mad at inanimate statues & names upon military forts,
* doxing folks who use the wrong pronouns or advance an unpopular/ racist/ homophobic opinion on social media,
* threatening folks' liberty for their failure to wear a mask &/or get a vaccine, etc.,
I find your last declaratory, sanctimonious statement freaking HILARIOUS as y'all get your tit in a ringer over something new each week!!

I would have said "hell if I know, but he makes for one ugly ass woman. Now where is the beer aisle again kids? Your Mom is the one that usually does all of the shopping."
