Teen suspended for saying there are two genders

Abraham Lincoln is said to have told a joke about how many legs a dog has if you call a tail a leg. Lincoln said the dog has four legs because calling a tail a leg doesn’t make it a leg. This simple bit of wisdom has been abrogated in our modern times. Men calling themselves women are considered women. Women calling themselves men are considered men.

Bruce Jenner calls himself Caitlyn now and has collected a Woman of the Year award. A boy who grew out his hair and called himself a girl was allowed to compete as a girl and blew away the competition in state championship races in Connecticut. The CDC says “pregnant people, not “pregnant women.” There’s an awful lot of people trying to prove that if you call a tail a leg long enough and loud enough, it really will become a leg.

There are also people pushing back and insisting on reality. A New Hampshire teenager attending Exeter High School dared to say there are only two genders, male and female, and was promptly handed a one-game football suspension. He in turn promptly hired an attorney from the Christian organization Cornerstone Action and filed a lawsuit.

The lawsuit claims that Exeter’s policy on non-binary students and their preferred pronouns violates the student’s First Amendment rights. He admits denying that there are genders other than male and female. He refuses to use pronouns such as “they” or “ze.” Under the free speech clause of the First Amendment, he says he has the right to avoid being compelled to use speech that he doesn’t agree with.

Thanks for outing yourself as a hompsexual pervert.

Don’t worry, it’s a dry heat in hell.

...Absolutely. I learned about “gender” in 7th Grade (1964) “First Year French.

I had two years of first year French so if I can figure out what gender is so can anybody else.

I wonder if the need of some men to call themselves women isn’t just an act chauvinism by those men. Can it be called Gender Appropriation? The minimizing of biological women by biological men. Of course then there are some women who call themselves men. ??? More gender appropriation?

It seems to me that it biology that makes a woman a woman and a man a man. Then there is femininity and masculinity, There are some men, who are feminine and some women, who are masculine. Why do just they, don’t embrace being a masculine women and a feminine men?
