Mardy A. Burleson is a computer sciences teacher… Burleson has a transgender son whose friend died by suicide years ago because they couldn’t come out to their family. So, to help support her own students, Burelson began giving them a beginning-of-term survey entitled, “Who is behind those eyes?”

She had conducted the survey for several years without complaints and asked students about their families, preferred learning styles, favorite media, hobbies, and accomplishments. It also asked their “preferred pronouns” and “Do you want me to use your pronouns in class and in messages home or is it private between you and me?”

Sounds like she is taking good care of those kids. And in response these “conservatives” talk about her “secret sex survey” and keep publicly calling her “groomer” and “pervert”. These people are so misguided and hurtful. I hope she finds some success with the lawsuit, but it won’t fix the hurt they’re causing.

Frankly I’m always suspicious of the ones that are screaming this shit the loudest.
