Seattle student failed quiz for answering 'only women can get pregnant;' school responds

A history teacher at a Seattle high school allegedly gave a student a failing quiz grade after he answered that only women can get pregnant and only men can have penises.

Fox News Digital received screenshots of the exams taken by two separate parents of students at the school.

Question 7 of the quiz similarly asked students to identify whether the statement "only women can get pregnant" was true or false. The teacher again marked the student's answer incorrect when he said the statement was true.

Several other questions asked students to answer questions like, "When someone uses 'they/them' pronouns, what does that mean about their gender identity?" and "True/false: Transgender people are gay."

Speaking with Jason Rantz, author of "What's Killing America," on KTTH, the student's mother, who asked to remain anonymous, expressed concern that the school is allowing teachers to bring political beliefs into the classroom.

"I keep trying to wrap my head around how it is legal to teach inaccurate information and force students to answer against their beliefs or receive negative scores," the mother said.

She also claimed teachers have called her son "f---d and racist" and a "product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care about anything."

The school outright denied that such name-calling occurred.

A district response to Fox News Digital's inquiry revealed that a "knowledge check quiz" was administered approximately two weeks ago at Chief Sealth International High School in an Ethnic Studies class but stressed that the quiz results did not impact the final class grade of students.

"SPS remains committed to fostering inclusive environments that encourage the exploration of contemporary issues, particularly the examination of power systems such as racism and patriarchy. This dedication extends to providing a space for thoughtful exploration and dialogue on these issues."

That is a pretty sight.

What happens when people actually get involved is astounding.
