Wow, what a guest! This guy is terrific. Much needed, timely, intelligent, discussion. Thank you so much! I actually was able to relax and gained hope for the children just listening to these two dialog. "Impoverished the complexity of human gender" exactly right. My mother used to read the encyclopedia of mathematics for relaxation, was an accountant, and hated jewelry. Trust me, she was all woman.

Tomboys of the 70s would have been very annoyed to have their gender questioned. And 99% became regular women later on.

I have seen Dr. Sax speak in person and have read most of his books. I wish more parents and teachers, or anyone dealing with children, teens and young adults, etc. would check him out. Even though some of his books are probably 15 years old they are still quite relevant to what’s happening today with boys and girls. In order to deal with all this stuff, we need to understand it first.

The good thing about a democracy is that the majority of voters get exactly what they deserve.
The tragic thing about the "united" states is that it is impossible for normal Americans to have good government

Our family has always been matriarchal.

I think it’s utterly wrong that the transgender woke thingy is so prevalent. I am female and I have only ever been me I couldn’t tell what it is like to feel like a man. Yet I was a butcher when I was in my 18-28…. a very male oriented profession and yet when at college I was voted the best in that trade…..

Because of my flexible schedule, I do almost all the cooking in our family, and this does not make me any less of a man!

If only there were some way to divide the nation, Liberals and Democrats could have their own country and do everything their way.
What kind of country would it be??

When I was young I read the book "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. I had professors during my undergraduate years who down-played that book as being wrong, but I still think it was one way of saying that Men and Women are inherently different from each other. They just are. Accept it!

@Megan Kelly. Why do I only get notifications for clips and not full episodes? Why also does your link to full episodes take me to a list of clips and not full episodes. And finally, why when I search by "Megan Kelly full episodes" do I only see clips? The only way I occasionally see full episodes is if it happens to come up as an option after watching another's content.

Megyn, my concern in this issue is that politicians and teachers don't know what really causes trans and they need to step away. So, from a spiritual point of view...

I regard trans as proof of an oft repeated  Biblical statement...that we are not the body.
It is said that we have cycles in a body type, perhaps 7 lifetimes, and then it is time to come into the next lifetime, possibly in the opposite body.  Thus we have some children who remember their last life, and begin saying they are in the wrong body.  Some newly into a male body have been found trying to cut off the penis.  Those female lives left strong imprints, as do male cycles.  Obviously  this makes homosexuality clearly the amoral result of the end-of-cycle body change.  We are electro magnetic eternal spirits.  Call it chemistry or magnetism, but it is the force that draws a compelling frequency.
But trans have that strong memory, and they loudly proclaim they are in the wrong bodies, thus confirming the  Bible.
Religion needs to figure out what the Bible means and how it impacts lives...sans their bigoted thinking.
I also think of trans as our modern day prophets.  Most people do not identify at all as Spirit beings.  Trans, if regarded with love, are the proof that we are spirit, not the body.  NDE, 's experience heaven after leaving the body at death.  Their return to the planet reconnects them to their body.  It is the Spirit that does the traveling .  The Bible details a lot of reincarnation, yet religion ignores it. Jesus came to show we need not fear death, and reincarnation does also.
The change of body type proves reincarnation just like NDE's.
Religion is more hung up on money than it is about these amazing experiences we can have.  We need to move past "politically  correct" and allow & encourage the young trans to explore all the typical options children have...sports,   cooking, art, music, etc, and they may find they really enjoy the play of the "new" body.  Politics should step away...teachers too, if they don't understand what they are diligently trying to establish rules for...for conduct, etc.
TIS SAID MORE ARE AWAKENING NOW.
LIKE paul, who did not want to appear boastful, I humbly add, the experiences are amazing.
Blessings to all.  May we all love one another.
