I remember when I was in 5th and 6th grade many years ago in the school library all the boys flipping thru the pages,, sorta like PC soft porn with all the natives [}:)][}:)][}:)][:0][:0]
Yup, jungletits, and a fire-roasted monkey on the next page.[:D]
Long about twenty years ago I began to notice a sea change. Liberal theories and propaganda began to be sprinkled amongst history and geography. Over time it got worse. I ended my subscription ten years ago and will never return.
Now I see the current cover and know I did the right (pun intended) thing. "The Science of Gender" would seem to have little to do with National Geographic as it was originally intended.
These mags used to be about science. Over the last decades, they have subliminally as well as openly advocated progressive DEMOCRAT party ideology.
True science should transcend all politics, however leftist DEMOCRATS use science as a weapon to drive a political agenda. We see examples everywhere. What a shame.
I loved looking at the far off places that took a southern boy to another world....Tahiti, Australia, and a broken and bombed out Europe....American heroes that simple came home and went to work...my , how the world has changed....I am very lucky to have been a part of the Greatest Generation.....now I am part of a lost horizon...
Me too, pwillie, and once married my FIL gave the wife and I a yearly subscription to it. It's a cut below toilet paper now.
I remember the great maps that came with them, would put them on my room walls, wish I had saved them......
I have one!
My Dad glued one to thin plywood and varnished it and framed it. It's real old fashioned looking and cool to have!
NG was my first "smut" that we all looked at!!
The progressives are intentionally generating the confusion for adolescents. You'd think from media coverage of this topic that 50% of kids are transgendered.
give it time, because that it the liberal goal
indoctrinate the young and already confused on who they are and the world around them
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

That and the lingerie ads in the Sear's & Montgomery Ward catalogs.
The only picture of a white woman we saw was Marilyn Monroe.
When Alfred Kinsey published the results of his survey, you didn't see a guy backdooring another one on the cover. NatGeo, like Look or Life, was a coffee table family publication.
I would expect to see this BS in Hustler or the Journal of American Psychiatry.
I have a National Geographic from 20 years ago, cover story on the Neanderthals. Twenty two pages on this story, I keep it on my desk at home and often read it.
About thirty years ago they had a cover story on my ancestors, the Celts. What a great story I read it many times.
I was so dismayed to see this cover story today. Obviously the libs have taken over NG. These kooks really think that the biggest story in the world today is a confused little boy with metallic pink hair. This is so sad, makes me sick to see a once-great magazine sink to these depths.
I wish they would include a paragraph of the parent/parents of this poor confused little boy. I bet you would have a picture of a man-hating 40 year old Lesbo, who likewise has metallic pink hair.
Sick.
But to these libs this is the biggest story of the decade.
Glad I don't have a subscription any more.
I also used to enjoy looking at the undersea explorations and treasure finds. Lots of interesting stuff was in there, but it appears to be interesting no more.
Ooops, looks like more bad thinking on my part.
