TORONTO, March 18, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) -- In the name of “dismantl[ing] systemic transphobia” a Toronto public school teacher has announced he is now using all-gender cabins for students on school camping trips, stating explicitly that the school did not obtain parental permission for the move.
Stating that the province’s new 2012 transgender law (Bill 33) made “schools legally responsible for eliminating barriers to inclusion based on gender identity and gender expression,” the teacher stated that parents simply had to accept the new “cultural mind shift.”
“Here, adults had to grapple with a new legal reality; this meeting was not a request for permission but rather an opportunity to give input into how to make all-gender cabins a reality,” wrote David Stocker, a member of the Elementary Teachers of Toronto, in the Spring edition of ETFO Voice.
Students, led by the transgender activist teacher, voted that “wearing underwear around the cabin was acceptable” for both boys and girls and those who identify as a “boy” or “girl.”
Stocker said that all-gender cabins was simply the next step after installing all-gender washrooms in Toronto’s City View Alternative School to making schools “trans-Inclusive spaces.”
“[H]uman rights activism…is at the core of the work we do at City View,” he wrote.
But Tanya Granic Allen, president of Parents as First Educators (PAFE), told LifeSiteNews that all-gender cabins are simply “another example of government bureaucrats infringing on the rights of parents.”
“These harmful experimental programs are being implemented, and only then are parents consulted. School officials are implementing programs without careful consideration of consequences. Putting 12 and 13 year old boys and girls together exposes children to potential dangerous circumstances,” she said.
“Parents should be alarmed that their rights are being usurped and their children are being used as subjects in a social experiment,” she added.
Stocker trivialized concerns that parents might raise about the “possibility of sexual activity” in the all-gender cabins, stating that students had been taught to “sensitively articulate both the policies in place prohibiting the behavior and the underlying heteronormativity of the concern.”
As many as 50 percent of the student body volunteered to spend nights in the all-gender cabins.
Ottawa parent and Catholic activist James Doak called the all-gender cabins a manifestation of the “insanity” that arises when truth is rejected.
“This is simply another indication of the insanity that results when the biological truth of human beings as male and female has been jettisoned for an absurd ideology that says individuals can choose what sex they belong to,” he told LifeSiteNews.
“Parents who are concerned about the mental and moral well-being of their children should be deeply troubled about how pervasive this gender ideology has become. We now see one of its promoters actually boasting about how obtaining parental permission to involve school children in what amounts to ’gender-identity’ indoctrination was intentionally ignored. The ideology is essentially stripping children away from their parents.”
Doak said that gender ideology ultimately harms children who, constantly bombarded with lies and propaganda about human sexuality, will eventually become incapable of authentically living out a true masculinity or femininity.
“Parents need to put their foot down and say, ‘Enough is enough. Let girls be girls and boys be boys,’” he said.
Are the muslims exempt ....again?
I think this means that they presume the students are so confused by now that they wouldn't consider having sex with anything.
“stating that students had been taught to “sensitively articulate both the policies in place prohibiting the behavior and the underlying heteronormativity of the concern.””
That’s is nothing less than revolutionary Soviet thinking, circa 1922.
LOL!
From bathrooms to cabins. All to force us to think their way: that gender is a continuum etc.
“She’s a girl. No, he’s a boy. No, she’s a boy. Wait, he’s a girl. But, it’s a ...”
And each goes to bed with his/her/its stuffed-animal companion.
Or robot. :)
“You can’t plug your phone in here. I’m charging my robot.”
Is the robot the servant or waiter in that image? Life is trending that way ...
Every single time I think society can’t sink any lower, someone proves me wrong.
They seem to be having a conversation, so I would say that they are friends.
These days, many of those of a certain age can’t bear to be alone. Even my older sister is constantly either on the phone or texting.
I long to be alone, but I suppose I’d get tired of it eventually. One of the ladies in my Weight Watchers meeting, about my age with college-student children, sometimes laments being alone all day.
I’m never alone. I have dogs. :) But seriously, it’s good to have both; time alone and time with loved ones. There were seven children in my family, so time alone was precious for me. Then again, we were never very far from each other, so I was never lacking a companion.
This psychological warfare on the minds of children is to create a Marxist “utopia” where Reason and Logic and understanding of Natural Law Theory and Common Sense (Reality) is eliminated so the State can dictate Good and Evil and erase God—and individualism—the Laws of Nature and nature’s God.
They have to remove children from their mother and father (destroy the Family Unit so Reality is warped and Common Sense is hard to gain)—put them in artificial institutions and condition them (control all allowed ideas) so they “feel” what is correct and “good”—exactly like Pavlov’s dog.
That, by the way, is how our “skools” have been destroying the minds intentionally of our children with the Billy Ayers-type “curricula” for 30 years.
That way when children are exposed to Truth (Natural Laws) they will have embedded irrational ideas and concepts-—so that “cognitive dissonance” will be all that is elicited when exposed to “truth/God/facts/Reality”——and they will have such closed minds, they will be as irrational as rutting dogs.
The Marxists want to eliminate God and Truth and Reality-—(Menticide) so that their lies and misinformation become “normal” and children will become “happy slaves” and dependent from cradle to grave-—all self-reliance and Free Will destroyed. No ability to discern truth (Wisdom).
Is that a banana in your underwear or are you just happy to see me in my underwear?
“Fine, then when the first sexual assault happens, the school will be stuck with full liability.”
Nothing to worry about. They’ll pass out condoms when the students get off the bus at the camp. The teacher will also have a supply of morning after pills ready if anyone needs them. Of course, there’s always abortion if these precautions don’t work.
Then, my daughter does not go on the trip! Period!
You can’t claim there’s a massive rape culture that women must be protected from AND mix pre-teens in their underwear in the same living space.
