[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Oh yes. My MD, PhD husband is so clueless sometimes it boggles my mind. I thought he did it on purpose so that I could do the work for him a la Raymond, but actually not... OP, It's fine :-) FWIW, I don't like that list either because I don't like singling out children by their sex for every little purpose - at that age they're already figuring out how to deal with the opposite sex, so anything that reinforces those gender lines is silly. The teacher could have figured another way to divvy up supplies. [/quote] I was with you up until the last paragraph. Really, you do know that a girl has a vagina and a boy has a penis. The teachers aren't making up a difference between boys & girls. The vaginas aren't bringing items that are considered stereotypical for vagina owners. What would you have been okay with? Blue eyes bring large ziplock bags, brown eyes small ones? Better be careful that seems racist.[/quote]
