Whats With The Dress, Jack?
A boy and girl play dress-up and tell stories about how the Assiniboyn, a Native-American tribe, encourage their children to wear the clothes that suit them best and play the games they most enjoy, without the limits of stereotypical gender roles.
Before the Play (Activities and/or discussion questions)
The teacher should solicit/ chart boys activities, things, and dress and then girls activities, things and dress. The teacher can then discuss all the student responses. Possible questions might include the following: Do you think boys could like some things that are on the girls side and vice versa? What makes us think of certain clothing, activities and things as being only for girls or only for boys?
After the Play
Discussion Questions:
The teacher should have pictures and photos of atypical gender roles both From today and in history. Examples from today might include police, fire And military women or male nurses, fashion designers, and ballet Performers. Examples from history might include men in dresses, robes, Kilts or with wigs, earrings and long hair. Why were men able to wear dresses in the past and not today? Why do you think women were not allowed to wear pants? Why did this change? Discuss hairstyles, make-up and jewelry and how it fits into gender roles. Is it all right for women to be in the military, police, etc.? Why or why not? Would it be alright if a boy wanted to play jumprope or hopscotch or if a girl wanted to play soccer and kickball? Why or why not?
Extension Activity
First chart boy and girl P.E. activities. For P.E. have the girls teach the boys how to play one girl game and the boy to teach the girls how to play one boy game. Then let them play the game for the day or week. After they have played the new game for the week, ask students if their views have changed.

"The Princess Petunia -A fairy tale about a princess who helps her father to see that everyone should be free to marry whomever he or she loves
Does this include Puss In Boots, The Frog Prince, or Stinky The Skunk? Should people who don't live in "fairy world" be permitted to marry cats, frogs, or skunks?
Homosexual Agenda Ping - I've been gone a few days and missed some heavy stuff...
Great, kindergarten indoctrination. If you can take this in stride, you need to get a grip on reality.
Do you want your children, grandchildren, or ANYONE'S children's minds and hearts mutilated by this Brave New World evil?
It's beyond belief. Part of my mind just can't believe this is really happening.
Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.
I'm going to get carpal tunnel of the neck from shaking my head so much.
Geez...
I find myself doing that as well. Just in disbelief - how can things be this bad and the presstitutes are reporting it as though it's not only normal and acceptable but improvement?
If those who see the truth about moral degeneracy in general and homosexuality in particular do NOT stand up, we are also guilty for allowing everything to go to hell.
Just think of the "good" Germans - the ones who didn't like Hitler and the Nazis, but shut up out of fear of rocking the boat, getting fired, and so on. If they had done something before Hitler gained ultimate power, millions of Jews and others might have been saved.
We have a serious responsibility to take action, whatever each of us can do.
Isn't that the reverse of what the SSAD agenda pushes - that SSADs are born and must stay that way?
