She's a Moms for Liberty super-Karen who can't stand diversity or alternative expressions of identity. She's employed at UC Davis according to TizzyEnt. How do people this sheltered even function in modern society? Everyone she sees who isn't actively praying inside a church must offend her. She's says it's degrading and misogynistic to dress in drag. WTF?

Moms for Liberty Co-Founder Admitting to Threesome Sparks Backlash
https://www.newsweek.com/moms-liberty-co-founder-admitting-threesome-sparks-backlash-1849054
Moms for Liberty co-founder Bridget Ziegler's admission to having a sexual relationship with the woman accusing her husband of rape has sparked backlash online Saturday, with many labeling the Florida political leader a hypocrite.
Bridget Ziegler's husband, Christian Ziegler, is the head of the Florida Republican Party and is currently embroiled in a sexual assault investigation. On Friday, it was reported that an unnamed woman claiming to be a friend of the Zieglers filed a report with the Sarasota Police in early October claiming that Christian Ziegler had come to her apartment and raped her after a planned threesome between the victim and the couple fell through after Bridget Ziegler became busy at the last minute.
Christian Ziegler and his attorney have denied any wrongdoing on his part, but security footage obtained from the victim's apartment has shown that he was at the building on the date of the alleged assault. Admissions to law enforcement from his wife have also complicated the matter.
As revealed in recently released court documents, Bridget Ziegler was interviewed by investigators in early November, confirming that she, her husband, and the victim had been friends and had engaged in a consensual sexual encounter roughly a year prior to the assault that the victim now alleges.

■○■○■○■○■○■○
Taikomochi (太鼓持 , also known as hōkan (幇間 , were the original male geisha of Japan.
The Japanese version of the jester, taikomochi were once attendants to daimyō (feudal lords) from the 13th century, originating from the Ji sect of Pure Land Buddhism, which focused on dancing. These men both advised and entertained their lord and came to be known as doboshu ('comrades'), who were also tea ceremony connoisseurs and artists. By the 16th century, they became known as otogishu or hanashishu ('storytellers'), where they focused on storytelling, humour, and conversation. They were sounding boards for military strategies and they battled at the side of their lord.

Eunuch, castrated human male. From remote antiquity, eunuchs were employed in the Middle East and in China in two main functions: as guards and servants in harems or other womens quarters, and as chamberlains to kings. Eunuchs were considered the most suitable guards for the many wives or concubines a ruler might have in his palace, and the eunuchs confidential position in the harems of princes frequently enabled them to exercise an important influence over their royal masters and even to raise themselves to stations of great trust and power. Some rose to become bodyguards, confidential advisers, and even ministers, generals, and admirals. Most eunuchs underwent castration as a condition of their employment, though others were castrated as punishment or after they had been sold by poor parents.

(62,785 posts)... don't interfere with mine, like say, the so called 2nd amendment rights that are killing people every day.
That person screaming and making stupid accusations certainly is interfering with other's rights. All they had to do was just go up to their room on the thirtieth floor or go to the desk and check out and go somewhere more to their liking.
There is no inherent right to remove anyone else from a public space. Nor should they be. There is no inherent right to not be shocked or offended. I fear for their children and their judgemental parenting.

(10,413 posts)Words of genitalia, inappropriately used separately to call an individual. But some, regardless of gender, fully represent the intent of the use of said words, disgustingly enough to be called both by mixing the two. Hope I did not offend, but there are people that are both meshed together into one full blown asshole. MTG is a great example. Non gender specific. Just a disgusting individual. Consistently.

She can legally harass the drag queens and not get fired, but I know people in the Sac/Davis area are puzzled about why she is allowed to harass and doxx colleagues. And, I don't want to hear WELL SHE DOES IT ON EH OWN TIME... if you stalk a coworker on the weekend, it's still an HR issue.
She was also at Pride in Sac counter protesting, and harasses and doxx librarians at the Davis Public Library and the Sacramento PL.

(17,287 posts)Theyre really easy to find, all the quotes are in red.
I just listened to a radio interview about a family whose toddler knew he was not supposed to a boy.
And yes, at 2 or 3 years of age after taking his bath, the little boy asked his daddy if he could cut off his penis because he didnt like it.
The parents were perplexed and didnt know what to do and a Friend helped them find appropriate ways to approach their dilemma. They decided to love their child and help them. The state of Indiana has been passing laws against transgender people.
None of their business but apparently they make it their business because they have nothing better to do. Perhaps we should harass them while reading bible verses at them!
https://www.radioproject.org/2024/06/family-matters-how-communities-support-trans-kids-in-conservative-states/
In 2023, Kirin Clawsons endocrinologist placed a puberty-blocking implant in her arm, a medical intervention that is associated with improved mental health for many trans kids with gender dysphoria. In February, Indiana joined several other conservative states banning this treatment for minors. In the first of a 2-part series, we hear from the Clawsons how the ban has impacted their family. And, we hear from psychologist, Dr. Myeshia Price about how all adults in the lives of children can support gender diverse youth, despite increasing discriminatory anti-trans laws aimed at kids.

The clip opens with her asking for someone to call the police, before launching into her tirade.....
She again asks to speak to the police and she apparently got her wish. Del Rey says that Bourne was handcuffed and escorted out of the hotel for causing a disturbance. Bourne was not actually arrested or charged, del Rey said, but the hotel did tresspass her from the property.
In another post, del Ray said that the queens were there to record a video for a pageant. The premise of the video was that the drag queens were posing as hotel staff while in full drag.
"This woman saw us filming and came to a slow burn and then she popped off. Her rant went on and on - possibly with the attempt to get a riled angered response. She didnt get one. In this video - you see my perspective. In her video - u will see three drag queens surrounded by staff and guests - just sitting down," del Rey wrote.
I am amused that this "lady" had to be handcuffed

(3,790 posts)say men can't dress like woman or women can't dress like men. Though I do recall it being recounted in the new testament that Jesus said things like "judge not less ye be judged, let he who is without sin cast the first stone." We were told in Catholic school that only two humans born without sin were Jesus and the Virgin Mary. Some Christians don't even believe Mary was born without sin. So if I were the woman in the video I wouldn't be judging the other people in the video.
I leave judging people's souls up to God. I do, however, reserve the right to believe she and those like her are assholes who enjoy being cruel to other people even their own children, all so they can feel superior and more holier than we lesser mortals.
Not to mention she's wearing shorts. In past times women were frowned upon and shamed for wearing pants, let alone ones that showed that much bare skin.
Should someone screech at her to put on a dress, and that she's being indecent for showing gasp too much skin, and to cover her legs and arms. She might inspire other people's daughters to dress like a harlot.
