The Family Policy Institute of Washington tried an experiment on gender ideology at a college campus, and came back with surprising results.
In a video published last week, the Institute shows journalist Joseph Backholm visiting the University of Washington campus and asking a number of students questions about gender and self-identity. Their answers reveal how deeply ingrained gender ideology has become in the mindset of today's college students.
Starting with the simple question, "If I told you that I was a woman, what would you say?" Backholm received the almost unanimous response that he'd be accepted as a woman.
He then asked increasingly challenging questions, including how they would respond if he said he were Chinese, or seven years old, or 6'5" — even though he is Caucasian, in his mid-20s and 5'9". Although some students balked, a number were — surprisingly enough — unwilling to state objective truth and tell Backholm he'd be wrong in his perceptions.

ARTH PING.
Only way these college students got this stupid had to have been Publik Skools.
Don’t know what that is but when I see them having temper tantrums like a 2 year old on the 6 pm news then I know things are not good.
ask kindergarten kids. i bet you’d get better results. college kids are usually dumber than infants
Partly due to Publik Skooling, and partly fear of going against Peer Pressure.
Yes, just the newest example of asking, “what do you think of the Emperor’s new clothes?”
pfl
Seek medical help.
If I told you that my dog was a cat, what would you say?
- that you are not mentally intact.
They were scared to say anything. They have learned to keep their head down.
The ones asking that usually go off the rails and start screaming like banshees about discrimination and some unknown phobia.
Then they seek retaliation against the student from the school.
It’s been quite a number of years since it was discovered that the typical college student knows less at graduation than they did as an arriving freshman.
Our university system is literally causing negative learning.
They are like the first set of commies in every communist revolution....shout out the lie so at least the revolution can take hold and we fix it layer....only to see the lie gets worse.
Heck, most of these pinheads can’t even identify Tommy Chong as Chinese and not Mexican.
Another waste of time about ‘snowflakes’ who think that because they are dumb enough to take on massive debt to attend college they are therefore smart enough to matriculate.
Again George Orwell,s 1984 is coming true. War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery Big Brother is Watching You
"How can I help it? How can I help but see what is in front of my eyes? Two and two are four."
"Sometimes, Winston. Sometimes they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once. You must try harder. It is not easy to become sane.”
― George Orwell, 1984
For postmodernist libtards there is no universal objective truth that describes the real world. There is no real world to which truth can correspond. There are only subjective personal beliefs, understandings, and interpretations. Each person or group constructs and creates his or its own reality. This is the end result of the disintegrated mode of thought that started with Kant and was continued by his followers.
Is that just today or is it everyday?
If one can self identify what they “feel” they are does this not make an interesting mess of preferential treatment for woman owned business?
So a married guy with kids should be able to require preference in government contracting if he says he is transgender.
Could the King Solomon Law Firm Sort this out?
What if someone is “feeling” they are a preferred minority? Perhaps a white guy could identify that he feels, believes, he is an African American woman and part American Indian.Could that improve his odds at law school acceptance?
Who makes the decision if he is legit? And if he denied his preferred treatment in acceptance to law school who will represent him in court?
Follow the illogic and it gets even crazier.
What you are describing is the student parroting the party line since he doesn’t know who the Party snitch (Stasi informant) is.
