Natgeo editors know exactly what's going on. You can't possibly tell me that a world class magazine KNOWN for their photography had NO idea what this shit is about? They get off on having this shoved in our faces. Like this? https://imgoat.com/uploads/512bd43d9c/10340.JPG

Yes I complained about a pic of a very young six year old Indian girls photo being on there celebrating "education for kids in India" yet the pic was of her shoulder up with no shirt on bathing herself dumping a bowl of water over her head wet hair and face with her lips parted open. It was something a pedo would definitely adhere to and there were comments and such on the page but they kept denying it so I contacted the photographer and I was blocked!! I basically called out the fact that the pic had absolutely NOTHING to do with children attending school in India it was a pic of one female small child dumping water over herself to bathe herself in the morning. With no top on. It was not what it was supposed to be and to prove the point I was blocked and THAT is National Geographic for you. True story.

Hate this cover. They are exploiting this child, who is made to look sexual with her/his come hither look. A pedophile's dream. http://www.feministcurrent.com/2016/12/16/national-geographic-gender-revolution-cover-fails-women/

I may not approve of what they did to that kid, but to be fair to dougG, that "come hither" look is in your own dirty mind. Maybe the spandex (or whatever those tight stretchy pants are called) is what's attracting you? But I've seen enough sexy ladies (I swear!) in my time to know what a "come hither" look is, and that ain't it.

Right?! I dont see that at all. I see a confused child.

I own that issue and never thought of it like that. I just are a happy girl, and I think you're pretty sick that saying she is sexual. People like you are the reason we can't have nice things as a society. Always trying to add a different dimension to something that isn't there. Bitching just to bitch.....

And you should learn how to write and spell English. People like you are the morons who don't question anything about society and thus let it deteriorate to the mess we're in--where we're giving life-altering and irreversible hormone blockers to little kids because we're telling them they're in the wrong body. Children ARE PERFECT IN THE BODIES THEY HAVE. THERE IS NOTHING 'WRONG' WITH THEM. Why aren't we teaching our children that it's okay for boys to like pink and for girls to be butch? We're so fucking homophobic we can't stand the thought that little Johnnie may be gay or little Jessica might be a lesbian. So Douggie, I hope you have no children. And go fuck yourself.

You're fucking retarded because I never said I agreed or disagreed with the idea of kids changing genders. I actually think its pretty sick and do think it should be illegal until they are 18 and their MIMD is fully developed. What I called you out on was trying to say that Nat Geo was sexualizing that girl/boy and adding controversy to something that is totally innocent. So my bad if I made a spelling error while typing fast on my phone, but you obviously have zero reading comprehension skills and only a demented fuck like you would look at that innocent picture of that girl and think about sex, you and the rest of the distorted feminists living like we are still I'm the 1920s.

Piscina ago

you and the rest of the distorted feminists

Okay, so now I get your problem. If I'm a 'demented fuck' for thinking that child was being sexualised, then the world is full of 'demented fucks' because that's what just about everybody else sees. That is NOT the stance of an innocent child. And while you defend what NatGeo did with that child, you are defending the whole trans cult pushing men into girls' change rooms, confusing and pathologising little children about 'gender'; supporting a multi-billion dollar medical industry whose financial interests are served by abusing children. And yes, you're still a moron who needs to go fuck himself.

dougG ago

Every feminist that hasn't shaved their cooter in months may of thought that just to how on the bandwagon because they ran outoc things to bitch at that week

National Geographic was bought out recently . . . This cover is outrageous -- !!

Now owned by Rupert Murdoch

Certainly looks like a very young girl being manipulated to appear sexual.

That really needs a lot of attention.

Here's an "explanation" -- transgender

Why We Put a Transgender Girl on the Cover of National Geographic

Couple of links to articles on the story --

Now now the editor of nat geo is Susan Goldberg. That's a name I can trust if I've ever heard one /s
