A group of students at the University of Southern Maine in Portland, Maine are calling for their professor to be fired after she said in class only two sexes exist.
Christy Hammer, a professor of education, allegedly made the statement during a heated debate about gender identity in her 'Creating a Positive Learning Environment' class, causing an uproar among the graduate students.
Only one student agreed with the educator.
The rest maintained both biological sexes and social genders are on a spectrum
The point was first made during class on September 7, but was repeated a week later after student Elizabeth Leibiger, who is non-binary and was absent the previous week, brought up the topic again.
She then said she felt 'under personal attack' after the professor again said only two sexes exist.
'I asked [Hammer] how many sexes there were,' Leibiger said. 'She said, 'Two.' I felt under personal attack.'
Biologically, there are only two sexes. Men have XY chromosomes, while women have XX chromosomes. Progressives say gender can have a broader spectrum than sex.
But anti-woke campaigners warning that the fixation on denying the biological reality that only two sexes exist is absurd, and potentially puts people's health at risk.
Almost the entire class of 22 students walked out, all except one demanding a meeting to be held with the university's School of Education and Human Development
Two dozen graduate students in the class continued to demand that the university replace Hammer, believing her to be transphobic.
Students are now refusing to return to the classroom in which she teaches and will only attend class if a new educator be appointed.
The class is a requirement to complete the graduate-level Extended Teacher Education Program and become a certified teacher in Maine

STAND UP ADULTS!!! These IDIOT kids need to be taught TRUTHS!
These are graduate students, not freshmen. Fail them all!

The 23rd pair of human chromosomes, which determine biological sex, have a limited spectrum: XX and XY.
And a primary difference between imagined social genders and stupidity is stupidity has its limits; but after listening to over 95% of students in this class, maybe not.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Future teachers.

Turn that place into a mental ward and weld the doors shut.
WTF is a “restorative Justice session”?

See 47. That freak is a future Army General, medical doctor, CEO, or professor.
NOBODY will ever dare not to give her an “A” and he/she/it will be early promoted at every step.
A future “commissar” in the field of its choice.
See 49.
That is a “restorative justice session.”
We aren’t far from that.

It might be just one or two activists, and the rest being too afraid to not go along.
In the public education field, being labeled “un-woke” will end your career before it even starts.
Whatever it wants, it will get, because nobody will dare say "no." Basically, a political/cultural "commissar." In charge.
During a cultural revolution, the chain of command flips.
This is why the FBI went so woke so fast. After a decade + of recruiting woke brats, the brats took over the training and promotion boards.
Imagine being a 50-year-old white male instructor at Quantico. At any point, the most radical "trainee" will stand up, point a finger, and denounce the instructor.
And the instructor will bow his head in silence and take it.
[Same thing is happening in most of the military, BTW.]
That's why FBI agents on raids can dress like this, for just one example. No more jacket/tie or FBI windbreaker. Full grunge, with guns.
This is how they raided and arrested one of the 11 pro-lifers, over a 2 year old beef.
Dressed like slobs. It's a big "Eff You" to conservative, normie America.
Or, you can be a fat slob sluggo and tote an assault rifle, as you drag a pro-lifer out of his house.
It's a big "Eff you!" to Normie America.
The American nomenklatura will soon have their own zampolit.
Won’t that be great?

A rational administrator of this school would have told those loudmouth malcontents that if they don’t like what’s being taught they’re free to drop the class.
If it really, really bothers them they can all leave and find another institution that’s more to their liking. And I’d do it with all the paperwork necessary to out process them sitting on my desk.
Call their damned bluffs.

She’s NOT ‘non-binary’...she’s a chick, although not with any attributes that are going to attract a real man.
Nobody at the university has any guts. Inside, they are also wokesters who agree with the radicals.
The universities are FUBAR, they cannot self-repair.
And they are sending forth future zampolits, sure of their power to cow and intimidate “normies.”
Meanwhile, a recent East Tennessee State University fundraiser raked in $163 MILLION, $43 MILLION more than its original $120 million goal. If people are going to finance these godless institutions, you can expect a LOT more of this nonsense.
