...and you don't get to pick which!

Feminists, liberals, and social justice warriors suffered a massive blow in Australia on Wednesday when the country’s most populous state banned high school teachers from teaching the concept that gender is a social construct.
The Australian reported that an independent review into the New South Wales’ sex and health education resources found that the state schools were pushing gender theory in 11th and 12th grades.
Teachers will now be forbidden to teach that gender is “social construct,” sexuality is “non-binary,” and/or it’s “constantly changing.” Furthermore, a plan to “de-gender” school language has been scrapped. Teaching aids like the “Genderbread Person,” which tells students there are an infinite amount of different genders available, will no longer be used.
A review of teaching resources was also implemented. Teachers were told to abandon a 17-page long list of “teacher’s toolbox resources” given in Crossroads, the state’s compulsory sex education program.
Included in the list of newly banned resources was a lesson plan called “Opposite Ends of the Pole.” It encouraged 10th graders to “consider various case studies, including ‘Joseph’, a man married with three children who ‘masturbates [and] fantasises only about men’ as well as ‘Alex’, who had sex with girls as a teenager but has developed a relationship with a man since moving to a country town.”
Parents will have access to the full report so they can see exactly what goes on in their child’s education.
Parental involvement, what a noble idea.
...and you don't get to pick which!
IOW....they are ‘anti-science’.
It’s simple. If you have a penis you’re male; a vagina you’re a female. I don’t know why the gender deniers can’t handle the truth. And they expect us to believe in climate change since global warming didn’t work out.
“Gender deniers” I am going to use that term often - with your permission!
Great stuff. However, a bit more rigor is required to sort out the confusion created by the politically-correct Newspeak involved.
Gender is a social construct -- or a social-psychological construct. I.e. it's in the mind.
Sex is binary -- it's a biological fact, not a construct. "Sexuality" is all over the map -- because it often defies biology.
BTW -- interesting how we are supposed to believe that sexuality is "constantly changing" -- yet we're also required to believe that there is no "cure" for homosexuality. You're only allowed to change one way, apparently.
"banned high school teachers from teaching the concept that gender is a social construct."
Still some hope there - in Europe you’d get JAILED if you didn’t subscribe to ‘fluid’ genders.
In the US, there’s no need to even discuss it. The left OWNS our schools and we conservatives keep sending our kids to those schools. So no issue here.
Sanity outbreak.
Contagious?
I hope we catch it.
Hurrah! for the land down under.
Well that's what they are. If they can redefine words and call us every name in the book it's only fitting that they be called what they actually are. The difference is theirs are lies while this one is the truth...lol
Nothing but “truth” should be allowed in schools and the traditions which formed the nation.
The trouble is they banned the most rational, most scientific, most just worldview (Christianity) for the communist Dewey’s Marxism and socialism and satanism and atheism: all irrational, all based on emotions, all collective-group-(non)-think ideologies/faiths, that throw out Reality and Natural Laws and God’s Law.
They result in producing ignorant, immoral, vile human beings (dysfunctional families) who will put a drain on civil society and collapse it. (Which is the plan for all Christian nations). (Can’t have mature moral masculine males-—they don’t like to bend over for the slavery of the psychopahtic sodomites who created this curricula to destroy virtue formation in children.
Without Virtue, civil society will collapse (Socrates).
Good for them-—it is a start.
So is clothing, we are born naked. Any man who seeks to wear a dress does so because he’s screwed in the head, there is no genetic code to wearing the clothing of the opposite sex. It’s a sexual fetish from learned behavior.
WOW! I’m impressed with the Aussies - first they refuse to take Muslim invaders, and now they refuse to let insane inmates run the asylum!
I applaud them - and hope Trump is taking notes.
Usually it's a sheep
