I'd like to know where it came from? Who compiled the packet and how many teachers received it? I question whether this idea originated with the teacher herself.

Is there a total lack of tar and feathers in that region?
Did they make the white kids wear black face during Black History Month?

Good question.
Who actually compiled the 16-page activity packet? the teacher? or an organization?

The cross-dressing day is to take place April 16 to coincide with the gay activist’s school event called “Day of Silence,” a nation-wide effort ostensibly meant as an anti-bullying program. However, the real purpose of the event is an effort to spread the homosexual agenda in our schools.
Singer Lance Bass, who “came out” not long ago, is featured in one of the videos sent to schools to get kids interested in the event and several prominent gay groups are pushing the idea.
The Day of Silence event was created by a gay advocacy group named GLSEN (the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network).
According to one parent on FaceBook, the district has been indulging a politically correct agenda for quite a while. In order to excise Christian references in the school, they’ve renamed St. Patrick’s day to “Leprechaun Day,” renamed Christmas to the “Winter Holiday,” and renamed Good Friday to “Spring Day.”
Parent Janine Patterson Giandomenico asks some salient questions.
"How is dressing like a woman from any era going to teach him about history? Why not let him do a report, poster, or other project on this subject? If he was attending a vocational school in the field of textiles, women’s fashion, etc, then it would make sense. My son is adamantly opposed, and I don’t see how forcing my 9-year-old to cross-dress in front of the entire school body is going to teach him anything about Women’s History."
NJ Grade Schools Makes Kids Dress as Women for Woman’s History Month — Yes Even Boys
Gosh Darn it… The Assoc. Press is all Mad at Me (Update on NJ School Cross-Dressing Day)
I think this should be major news, FRiend.
this is what critics of homeschooling call “socialization” i guess....
Couple simple solutions to this:
1.) Put the boys in kilts and have them go as William Wallace and his army. Complete with period weaponry.
2.) Put the boys in girls’ field hockey outfit. Since we’re talking about elementary school-age boys, they’ll also need to wear fake leg and face hair. If they were older you’d just let them grow beards ...

I’m told size really does matter.
Is the Swiss thing true? Europeans are very blase about sex.
I just clicked the link. Well duh, encourage children to copulate aaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnndddddddddddd—they will. Now, of course all the unintended consequenses must be dealt with.
Reminds me of an article I read a few years back saying many French workers complaining of being stressed out trying to catch up with all the work that didn’t get while they were on their 3-month summer hiatus.
Today I heard a French women,stranded in NYC, whine that she hated The City because the erupting Icelandic volcano had shut down European airports.
It is impossible to reconcile the modern French people with their Napoleanic ancesters. So sad that an entire nation of people neutered itself. And for what?
We have just experienced yet another ....

They should go dressed as usual and inform the so-called teacher that they are dressed as Rosie or Ellen or MadCow or (insert name of bull-dyke here).
Fire this stupid, inept, teacher now. Fire the school authorities to allow her to do this. Where is the oversight?
These sound like single mothers. How does one work a full time job, home school AND make sure that your child is cared for whilst you are working?
This is satire, right?

These were "harmless" seeds of a revolution that has now come to full bloom. Today, these things can no longer be passed off as a "joke."

This is extremely sick.
Sick. And stupid. It would probably have the undesired effect of the little boys hating girls even more. I recall way back when, probably about this age (11 or so) having to read a girl’s part in a play script. (Not on stage, just reading in class during reading period for the week).
I argued that it should be read by a girl (not by a boy), to no avail. I was very upset.
The next day when reading time came along I put on one of my Mom’s bras that I had taken from her drawer and stashed in my bag. Put it on over my shirt and went to sit down in the reading circle. The teacher sent me to the principal’s office as I exclaimed to everyone “Hey, if they want me to play a girl I should dress like a girl! I was just trying to act the part! If they wanted me to dress like a boy they should have given me a boy’s part!!”
I knew the way to the principal’s office. I always get a chuckle out of spelling “principal” (having to remember that he’s your “pal”!)
