High School Halts Transgender Spirit Week After Outcry From Parents

/0 Comments/in , /by

A public records request revealed that parents at Estrella Foothills High School in Goodyear, Ariz., successfully halted a Transgender Awareness Week that aimed to push left-wing gender theory on the school community.

The week originally included a variety of different activities, including wearing name tags with students’ pronouns, wearing rainbow colors to celebrate the LGBT movement, and another day on which students were instructed to wear blue, white, and pink, the colors of the transgender flag. The spirit week was being hosted by Estrella Foothill High School’s Coexist club.

The club also made an Instagram post encouraging students to donate to the National Center for Transgender Equality, a far-left organization that advocates for boys to be able to use girls’ restrooms in schools, a policy that threatens the safety of young women.

Courtney Ratkus is the sponsor of the Coexist club and a teacher who proposed the spirit day to principal Kimberly Heinz in an email, also explaining the themes behind each day. . .

Documents gathered from the public records request reveal that parents and students were able to successfully stop the spirit week after the first day. One parent condemned the push for a “radical sexual lifestyle” in an email to district administrators before warning that if the push continues, he will “be forced to withdraw my children and the funding that your school relies on.” (Read more from “High School Halts Transgender Spirit Week After Outcry From Parents” HERE)

Transgender “Female” Shattering Records Against Women

/0 Comments/in , /by

Lia Thomas, 22, competed as Will Thomas for several years on the University of Pennsylvania men’s swim team.

Now Thomas is breaking records – on the women’s team. . .

And the situation has triggered another round of fights over the idea that men can become women, and also that they should be allowed to compete against biological women.

Thomas recently “raced away” from other competitors at the Zippy Invitational event in Akron, Ohio, winning the 1,650-yard freestyle by 38 seconds, according to the Daily Mail.

Thomas’ time of 15:59.71 was a record for the meet. And the pool where it happened. And it followed victories in the 500-yard freestyle as well as the 200-yard freestyle. (Read more from “Transgender “Female” Shattering Records Against Women” HERE)

Public School System Abolishes Sex-Specific Restrooms to Usher in Gender-Neutral Bathrooms to ‘Increase Gender Equity’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Chicago Public Schools system will no longer have girls’ and boys’ bathrooms, but instead will have gender-neutral restrooms where all sexes are welcome.

The Chicago Public Schools system launched an initiative to abolish sex-specific bathrooms and transform them into restrooms where “all who feel comfortable are welcome to use this restroom” regardless of their gender.

CPS Title IX officer Camie Pratt introduced the sweeping new changes in a video posted on social media.

“On top of ensuring that each of our schools is a safe learning environment, we’re also taking steps to create more inclusive and supportive schools,” Pratt says in the video. “One change that will be implemented this school year relates to our school bathrooms.”

“In compliance with new federal guidelines, all CPS students and staff will have fair and equitable access to bathroom facilities that align with their gender identity,” she continues.

College Swimmer Who Competed as Man Now Dominating Women’s Category After Identifying as Female

/0 Comments/in , /by

A University of Pennsylvania swimmer who competed as a man for three years is now dominating the women’s category after identifying as female.

Will Thomas competed as a man for the University of Pennsylvania as a Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior, earning a few wins and spots in tournaments. However, after taking a year off to transition, Thomas returned to U Penn’s team as a female swimmer named Lia and has been racking up far more top finishes than before.

According to Swim Swam, Thomas has come in and “blasted the number one 200 free time and the second-fastest 500 free time in the nation on Saturday, breaking Penn program records in both events.” The site added that Thomas “swept” the free individual events and helped earn first-place in the 400 free relay.

“Thomas began the day with a 1:43.47 (24.6/26.2/26.4/26.1) to win the 200 free,” Swim Swam continued. “Only half a second off the NCAA A cut, it is the second-fastest women’s 200 free time in the nation so far this season, and it would have scored in the A final at 2021 NCAA Championships.” (Read more from “College Swimmer Who Competed as Man Now Dominating Women’s Category After Identifying as Female” HERE)

First-Grade Teacher Boasts About Sexuality, Lack of Gender Identity: ‘My Favorite Moments Are Always When My Students Ask About My Queerness’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A purported first-grade teacher is making headlines after claiming that nothing makes them prouder than when their students “ask about my queerness.”

It is not clear at the time of this reporting whether the teacher is biologically female or male. . .

The teacher, who goes by “Nalo” on Twitter, announced that they told students to refer to them as “professor” rather than “Mrs.” or “Mr.” because neither the formal feminine nor masculine term seemed to feel appropriate.

“My students call me Professor Nalo because I prefer not to use Mrs. or Mr. in my classroom,” Nalo wrote. “I teach all subjects as a 1st grade teacher, but my favorite moments are always when my students ask about my queerness.” . . .

“My students know about and have met my wife at school, they know I’m queer, and the [students] will call ANYBODY out for calling me ‘Mrs.’ anything,” the teacher boasted. “I told them my story once & never needed to say it again. If only adults adjusted as quickly and easily, it may save many of our lives.”

Mom Speaks Out After Son Is Suspended for Saying There Are ‘Only Two Genders’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The New Hampshire mother of a high school student-athlete suspended from playing in a football game for telling a classmate there are “only two genders” spoke out publicly for the first time Thursday.

“My first reaction was that I was shocked,” the mother, who requested anonymity, told Fox News in a statement. Her son, a football player at the school, had texted a classmate while off school grounds.

“My son had already told me about the incident, so I knew what had happened,” the mother, who lives in Rockingham County, added. “When I saw the text messages, I agreed with my son. All he did was state an opinion. I defended him on the phone to the vice principal and said, ‘He has a right to his opinion.’”

The student and his mother sued Exeter High School and Vice Principal Mary Dovholuk Nov. 4, alleging they violated the teen’s constitutional right to free speech along with the New Hampshire Bill of Rights.

The school has a written policy on “transgender and gender nonconforming students” that says they have the right to be addressed by their preferred name and pronoun, irrespective of their biological sex.

Schools Agree Not to Punish Teacher for Refusing to Use Transgender Pronouns Following Court Order

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Loudoun County school board agreed to a settlement in a Virginia Circuit Court Monday with a teacher who was suspended from his job for expressing disagreement with the district’s transgender policy.

The Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) school board settled with Tanner Cross, who filed a lawsuit that alleged the school board retaliated against him when it suspended him after he expressed his opinion on the district’s Policy 8040.

The district’s policy requires teachers to call students by their “chosen name and gender pronouns that reflect their gender identity without any substantiating evidence” and allows transgender students to participate in sports and use bathrooms that correspond to their chosen gender identity.

On June 8, the Loudoun County Circuit Court ruled that LCPS had to reinstate Cross, which the Virginia Supreme Court affirmed on Aug. 30 and Monday’s settlement makes permanent. LCPS will also remove any reference of suspension from Cross’ personnel file and pay $20,000 toward his legal fees, according to the settlement.

Cross said LCPS suspended him from his job as a physical education teacher at Leesburg Elementary School over his opposition to the policy, which he made clear during the public comment portion of a May school board meeting.

‘Loudoun County Protects Rapists’: Students Walk Out Over Trans Bathroom Rape Coverup

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hundreds of Loudoun County, Va., public school students walked out after news broke that the district covered up a rape committed in a women’s bathroom by a “gender fluid” student.

Local media showed pictures of student walkouts at multiple Loudoun County high schools. The Washington Free Beacon has reported that the district superintendent knew about a rape committed at Stone Bridge High School even as he said the district had no “record of assaults occurring in our restrooms.” Students at the Tuesday walkout at Broad Run High School chanted, “Loudoun County protects rapists.” . . .

Mainstream media were silent on the district’s coverup. A local ABC 7 report on the walkouts did not mention how the male student gained access to the girls’ restroom. (Read more from “‘Loudoun County Protects Rapists’: Students Walk Out Over Trans Bathroom Rape Coverup” HERE)

WATCH: Candy Ad Features Trans Child, Suggests Violence Against Those Who Oppose

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A new Halloween-themed commercial for Twix candy bars that features a cross-dressing child had social media fuming on Wednesday.

In the ad, a young boy in a princess dress opens his front door to find a mysterious new nanny — a goth-looking witch — on his doorstep. When some neighborhood girls question why the boy is wearing a costume when it “isn’t Halloween yet,” he looks sad.

Immediately after, the pair visit a park where a bigger boy asks the cross-dressing child why he’s dressed “like a girl.” When the boy answers, “dressing like this makes me feel good,” the ostensible bully responds that he and his nanny “look weird.”

At that point, in a sequence that suggests violence against minors is a reasonable response to having a different point of view over transgender ideology, the nanny uses her magic power to call up a wind storm to blow the bigger boy away. The implication is that he may be gone forever.

Professor: Stating Biological Facts Will Get You ‘Hate Mail’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Stating a biological fact is certain to get the speaker “hate mail,” these days.

That’s according to a former vice chancellor of Sheffield Hallam University.

The comment comes from Lord Robert Winston, a Labour life peer, who also is Emeritus Professor of Fertility Studies in Imperial College London. . .

“I will say this categorically, that you cannot change your sex. Your sex actually is there in every single cell in the body,” he said. . .

He added, “Unfortunately you can’t say this publicly, this is one of the big problems. Even saying this on this program undoubtedly will result in my getting a huge amount of hate mail, it always does.” (Read more from “Professor: Stating Biological Facts Will Get You ‘Hate Mail’” HERE)
