School boy bullied and kicked out of school for wearing a shirt saying there only two genders

a reply to: Asmodeus3

25 years ago in a galaxy and time far far away, when I was going through my "be as offensive to conformity as possible" phase I bought a shirt at a Cradle of Filth concert I snuck out to go see. Hid it, and then wore it to school the next day.



Remove photo if still too racy.

This one. Thought it was so funny. I was very proud of it.

I was suspended 5 days, threatened with arrest, lost the shirt, got banned from listening to the band, and grounded a month for that. It made it an Olympic event to see what I could get away with thereafter. The only thing I regretted was losing the shirt, which you could only buy from their concert merchandise stand.

But it was and still is an offensive pornographic and vulgar shirt.

And this kid gets kicked out of school for offending the liberal snowflakes? With a selectively offensive shirt?

Is this a zero tolerance for insensitivity thing?

What would this same district do with a kid that wears the shirt I wore to cause a stir?

The boy asked since when the feelings of a group of people are more important than his right to free speech. And rightfully so!

And since when this group can express their political opinions but the boy cannot. Actually the boy stated a well established facts for which there is no dispute.

a reply to: Degradation33

We have entered an era where stating facts is regarded by some as extremism and hate speech. But that's not something acceptable by the vast majority of the population.

Even if the boy stated just his opinions he still has the right to do so and the right to free speech just as everyone else.

Of course he was correct, there are only two genders.

Perhaps I'm just so used to being lumped into the LGBTOI+ collective (for anything that isn't heterosexual, I guess), that I feel "gay" has a specific meaning, to which I refer in my post above.

And I don't think this article clarifies very well whether this Muslim family allegedly discriminated against gay men specifically, or whether "gay" is used here as a kind of inaccurate metonymy/synecdoche.

After all, if, for example, I used the term "Christian", that could refer to anything from Kenneth Copeland to the Pope.
Yeah, thousands of sects and denominations that might not even recognize each other as Christian.

Could we just be a bit more specific please?

What article?

I find it funny that our schools are "anti-bully" until it comes to getting in the way of the Faculty's Leftist views. None of the kids complained about his shirt. IT WAS THE "ADULT" FACULTY.

Oops, just came home and doing everything at once.
Actually I mean to reply to this this thread:

Sorry, but still something I feel, and could be relevant to both threads.

What do you think about this case?

a reply to: Asmodeus3

I think the shirt should have read there are only two sexes.

Provably sex is between the legs, but gender is between the ears (the mind or brain), and that is limitless.

Well, a decade or so ago that's how we were taught in college: "Sex is between the legs; gender is between the ears".

But it seems nowadays the concepts have become fused, or "confused".

P.S Intersex people notwithstanding, given a developmental choice they do slot into either binary.

Gender is a very misleading term at least the way the ideologists use it. They know they can't get around biological sex so they have chose gender which in reality is indistinguishable to biological sex to make their very unsubstantiated points, fact free as always.

Why people want to 'transition'? And between what? The answer is between male and female, hence recognising the binary nature of gender which is the same binary nature of sex.

Intersex is a very serious condition and is part of the group of sex development disorders. In a few words biological males and females having some mixed characteristics, ambiguous genitalia or underdeveloped genitalia and often infertile. But still male and female biologically.

The gender ideologists and activists trying to argue about transgenderism on the basis of intersex sometimes, failing all the way.

From an English studies' point of view I also say it is outrageous to enforce upon people that the body must always match the imagination (as current transgender theory seems to demand).

Surely what makes us human is also the empathy and sympathy that arises from narratives and storytelling when we indeed imagine ourselves as the other, and put ourselves in the shoes of the other, while acknowledging it is a fairytale ... I am what I am.

It is my rendition of the Other (yeah we've noticed).
But at some point the covers must close and it's back to reality.
Ugh.

a reply to: Asmodeus3

OK, but now you look at a lot of trans-influencers.

What female roles do they suddenly appropriate?

Seeing a lot of trendy girlz, but few Margaret Thatchers, Marie Curies, Winnie Mandelas or Saint Hildegards.

Only a certain type of female as the aim.

I don't think any sane person can take the transgender ideology (not theory) seriously. It's s fact free political ideology based on nothing other than the views and perceptions of a tiny minority of adults who are deluded and on the top of this you have the trans activists demanding that everyone else must affirm their delusions.

It doesn't work this way I am afraid. I am really baffled how this ideology made it that far but it's time that society puts an end to this lunacy.

I graduated in '82, and we couldn't even wear political buttons...!!

Now, everything seems to be political, or orientated that way.

Meanwhile, Little Johnny, who is 12, can't read at his age level. Or write a simple declarative sentence. But the teachers are doing wonders for his self-confidence...functionally illiterate, but boy howdy, his self-confidence is through the roof. Until he can't get into a good college, or get a good job--because he's functionally illiterate.

a reply to: M5xaz

There wasn't any of that, either.

None of that belongs in schools. That's the parents job. Readin', 'ritin', and 'rithmatic, is all that should be in schools.

But, I will undoubtedly be told just how out of touch I am...

a reply to: UKTruth

...and being told by some of those same kids, just how wrong I am about, well, just about everything...

Of course, I thought my parents were wrong about many things at that age, too...amazing how I've come to realize just how right they usually were.

Glad he is getting a little more help in his battle with a corrupt school system.
