“In the article it notes that in two schools BOYS are allowed to wear skirts! What insanity!” Admin
It is a curious characteristic of progressive movements that they often begin by singing praises to a rainbow of diversity, and end by enforcing dull, grey conformism.
Gender fluidity is in the process of being sold to the public as a joyful experience in which the shackles of heteronormative binarism are flung off and each person can define his or her (or ze or zir etc.) own reality, regardless of seemingly immutable physical truths.
Those biological truths have now become transphobic, and are banished from schools that once specialized in teaching things like biology. (I’m waiting–and just watch, it will happen–for the first high school textbooks describing the male and female anatomy to be tossed out, re-written, or labeled “offensive” and “outdated.”)
It is an inescapable but almost universally ignored fact that in order for the ideology of gender fluidity to win the day, our previous understandings of the world will have to be trashed. School staff cannot simultaneously recognize biological reality while also allowing Joe to call himself Lucy and play on the girls’ sports teams and change in the girls’ locker room.
As transgenderism lurches from a fringe ideology to a fad, schools are grappling with how to deal with this strange new reality–and some have now decided to respond by banning certain distinctive differences in dress between girls and boys in order to level the playing field. From the Independent:
At least 40 secondary schools in England have banned girls from wearing skirts, an analysis of uniform policies across the country reveals. Further schools are also considering the move to gender-neutral uniforms, which are more inclusive of transgender pupils.
