Local family triggered by unexpected mention of “biological sex” – FATHER HOSPITALIZED!

July 20, 2026 – By MaryBeth Struble 

Reporters on the scene located the mother, Mrs. D’rama, in the hospital to find out the full story.

“It was just an average Tuesday night watching our go-to, NBC News, as a family and then BAM–” Mrs. D’rama karate chopped the air. “Right out of nowhere they’re flashing these disturbing words across the screen: “biological man”, “biological woman” – it’s making me squirm all over again just thinking about it…” she took a deep breath. “but anyway, so we all start screaming and shouting at the TV — well, all except my son, that is, those darn influencers have been filling Billy’s head with all that Christian, pro-America nonsense — and my husband is yelling, I’m letting whatever comes to my mind fly free, my daughter’s hiding under the cushions, heck, even the cats were upset about it they yowled and darted out of the room!”

The reporters exchanged glances. “What about your husband, ma’am?”

“Right. Right. So then Billy goes, “Dad?” and I look over and Rob’s hyperventilating and then he just passes out, like…poof! Hm? What’d I do? Well, of course, being the feminist family we are I immediately pulled my daughter over and we tried slapping Daddy really hard to wake him back up.” Mrs. D’rama glanced over at her hospitalized husband. “Which unfortunately didn’t work and now he’s got that nasty bruise, too.

“Anyway, somewhere during that time Billy snuck out and called 911, even though I told him I had it handled. That was probably for the better though, because once we got Rob here the doctor said it was high blood pressure and he could have had a heart attack, but you want to know the worst part? It was those insensitive words NBC displayed that brought this all on. I loved NBC — I trusted NBC with my life! I just can’t believe they didn’t think about how dangerous seeing those words could be to some of their viewers! I mean, just look at my husband!”

The bruise on Mr. D’rama’s face had noticeably expanded.

“Exposing us to offensive words like that is bad enough as is! I mean, c’mon, we at least deserve to be warned ahead of time or something! There are American lives at risk NBC – I expected more from you guys.”

Since this incident, NBC has begun giving trigger warnings before discussing anything relating to “biological sex.”
