Why not just call everyone who is not sure of their sex, fag? It’s easier to remember. This is fuddy duddy commie lib nonsense. They’re laughing at you when you go along with their bull****.

The Knoxville branch of the public university sent a memo from a gay right official (pictured) round to its members filled with unusual new parts of speech to avoid referring to anybody's gender.

Bama students have their own version of Rocky Top. Unfortunately, I would be banned if I posted the lyrics here.

It looks like central casting found the perfect actress to play the part of a stereotypical lesbian. Great job!

I was at UT in the early 70’s and they tried something like this back then, went over like a whore in church, as confusing as dropping your gum in the hen house.

It will not catch on.

UT alums, you are up. Do your job. Dry up donations to the development office. And I mean so dry they fart dust.

The inmates are running the asylum.
The criminals are running the Department of Justice.
The morons are running academia.

I want all of you to start referring to me in gender-neutral terminology.

Always refer to me as “Your majesty”.

The one thing a person is born with, always sure of, and can’t screw up.

Leave it to a university...

Universities used to be about exploration of ideas and learning. Now they are liberal propaganda indoctrination brain-washing centers.

I suggest all alumni withdraw their annual giving to the university.....obviously the progressives have taken over that taxpayer institution on ‘higher learning’...NOT!

Here is a (must-read) article by a professor who still believes in common sense. This latest from the nefarious .01% at UT....my Tennessee deceased relatives who helped bring that state out of the wilderness are rolling in their graves, the living ones should take action from such idiotic declarations!

Here's the loser who wrote up this nonsense...I think it's safe to use the adjective "virgin."

Why do these nutcases always end up looking like that?
