[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm super liberal and I have no interest in having them combine genders for FLE instruction. I just don't think it's beneficial to the dissemination of the information. I would support combining for certain topics, but not for puberty topics or health issues particular to a certain sex (like breast exams, testicular checks, etc.) I truly don't see any benefit to combining genders for this and I think it will just inhibit discussion and make everyone uncomfortable. [/quote] The issue which they are trying to address is which group would the trans kids go with. Well if they combine genders they don’t have to worry about it. [/quote] The trans kids who don't want to go with biological gender should do what the religious kids do and opt out. They don't change the program to accomodate conservative muslims, or traditional catholics. They should not change the program to accomodate a potential transgendered family that wants their kid to go with a different gender. [/quote] Unfortunately they already have. Girls at FCPS have lost their right to private spaces in bathrooms, shower and changing areas and overnight trips, as well as their own category in sports. Unfortunately, Title IX, which protects the rights of a student to have an educational environment free from sex-based discrimination, no longer exist on the principles it was created for. How about the rights of girls not to have boys present when intrinsic biological changes are being taught? Or boys, not to have theirs described in front of girls? After all, these are kids we are talking about. Although, come to think about it, unless we (the adults) are in the field of medicine, we wouldn’t feel comfortably having these discussions in front of our coworkers of the opposite sex either. Unfortunately, this isn’t about making the 0.01 percent of students comfortable at school, this feels more like some male adults imposing their radical gender ideology and agenda on our kids. What is next FCPS, transvestite shows at school? [/quote]
