    "When it comes to gender identity it is a real and valid concern for a number of students."

    Only after they learn that gender identity is even a thing that some people pretend exists by having in forced into their lives by the schools 'curriculum'.

    "For us, anything that prevents students feeling happy, from feeling confident in themselves and from feeling accepted by their peers is something we feel the curriculum should address."

    Except grading scales, homework, detention and politically correct standards of behavior. Just as long as they conform to what we think they should conform to, we want them to feel comfortable and happy!

    But I won't entertain this bullshit about being a non-binary fluid gendered potato.
    I would take my son to see a professional too, a professional therapist.

    When will this whole gender identity bullshit die off already? I don't care if your pronouns is "they", that's already taken to refer to a group of people, not you.

    Got a vagina? You're a she.

    Got a dick? You're a he.

    Are you trans? Then I'll go out of my way to accommodate. The rest of it though? Blow me.

    The ultimate conclusion of counter-clockwise turning idocrazy: Omnigender/Omnisexual. Why only chose one gender at a time with genderfluid, when you can be all genders at once? A superposition of all genders and identities, the gender singularity! It's upon us, you better covert now, for only 9.99$! They couldn't write better comedy if they tried.

    As time goes on the PC culture will only expect more of the common person to accommodate people pretending to be things.

    Just think of all the affirmative action you can take advantage of!

    That's what I don't get. I was under the impression that for the overwhelming majority of people, these kinds of things are absolute bullshit as they should be. When I see GOVERNMENTS getting on board with that though, it makes me wonder. Why would they try to push this in the public schools. It makes no sense to me.

    Aren't girl, woman, tomboy, and female all the same?
    Aren't boy, male, and man all the same?
    Who the fuck identifies as trans-boy or trans-girl? I thought the whole fucking point of transgender was identifying as the opposite gender. So shouldn't a trans-boy identify as a male and a trans-girl identify as a female?
    What's the difference between agender, bigender, and androgynous?
    What even is demi-boy and demi-girl?

    You know what, fuck it, I'm going with "Not Sure" because none of this makes any fucking sense.

    What's the difference between girl, female and young woman? They're school kids, they'd qualify as all three.

    I didn't understand most of them, e.g. tri-gender. What's the third one?

    So I've been confused about something for a while now. If gender roles are invented by human minds, how does a child "know he wants to be a girl?" Based on what, typical female culture? Because if that's superficial, then his desire to be a woman is superficial.

    Tomboys are girls that like to do boyish things, so there is difference with that (sort of).

    Yeah, that is what I meant. What? You think I would take my kid to a surgeon that day and get his dick cut off?

    Dude, something like that requires counseling sessions with professionals to fully flesh out if it is legit or just a phase or whatever. Then we can take steps to get surgery if all other options have yielded inadequate results.

    But that's still female.

    there's only two genders, don't give a fuck what these idiots on tumblr think.

    male and female, you can be a female in a male body or male in a female body, but that doesn't make you a third gender.

    you're also not part squirrel or a planet or some shit like that.

    That's probably the least confusing, at least I know some girls are tomboys, I don't know any demi-boys - which half is a boy?

    You deal with these kinds of things, you don't accommodate them. I would be doing the same thing if my kid said that they were a dog, walked around on all fours, refused to speak and only bark, insisted on wearing a collar and ate their own poop. He's a human, not a dog.

    You can't be a female in a male body, that doesn't make sense. Some people feel like they are a female in a male body though, which is different.

    If the kids don't know what the hell those terms are, why should they be expected to even answer at all? That would be like covering the first few chapters of a book and then springing an end of the year exam on students, expecting them to be able to do essay questions that require knowledge of everything... and that's a shitty metaphor because we're talking about something as personal and hard to define as gender!

    There are two sexes (maybe three). There are an infinite number of genders, because it's all made up anyway.

    This pretty much sums it up.

    I still don't get how it's a gender.

    Does swimming and making dolphin noises make me a dolphin?

    Just like how there is an infinite number of possible fictional stories, but only a limited amount of real historic events (even if there are a lot of them).

    No, that's silly. It makes you a dolphin inside a human body of course! A trans-dolphin!
