An American school has been forced to axe a cross-dressing fashion show featuring eight-year-old boys in women's clothing.
Parents in New Jersey were sent letters telling them their boys must wear female clothes - suggesting cheerleader outfits and poodle skirts
The show at Maude Wilkins Elementary School was supposed to mark Women's History Month, but sparked outrage from some mums.
"My son was very upset," said Janine Giandomenico. "He said, 'Mommy, please don't make me do this.'"
Stacy Bowen, a mother of two young children, added: "I was just so outraged. I find it completely alarming that a school would do this."
In a 16-page pack sent home with students, teacher Tonya Uibel informed parents that all students in her third grade class would have to participate in the activity.

If it were Transvestite or Transsexual History Month, I might see the logic. But how does dressing 8-year-old boys in female clothing have anything to do with Women's History Month?

And this disgusting excuse for a “teacher” hasn’t been fired because ....? (rhetorical question, I know).

Makes one wonder what type of mentality is present in these teachers/administrations that would even conceive this utter nonsense.
Just on that basis only I would pull my children out of this school and probably bring a law suit citing gross incompetence and ask for mass terminations

Why are we continually surprised at the dumb behavior of school teachers and administrators? Now I know that there are some good and highly qualified examples of both all across our country. So what I am about to say is not applicable to all, but is seems to be applicable to a vastly unacceptable number of school teachers and administrators.
They just aren’t the brightest candles on the cake. Why? The answer appears to be simple to me. The school of education in just about all of our colleges and universities are the intellectual slums of higher education. They are occupied by students possessing the lowest average ACT and SAT scores of probably any on campus. It is sad but true. If you can’t get a degree in any other school on campus, then transfer to the school of education. You won’t have any problem.

Perhaps you haven't noticed, but social reformers are entirely without a sense of humor. For me, it's getting harder and harder to even crack a smile. There just isn't too much that is very amusing, anymore.
Ever notice what the Left thinks is "funny?" I'm getting sort of tired of being patient and understanding about sub-human political retards daring me to shoot them in the face.

A lesson I learned in 1968 at the Chicago Democratic Convention:
If lust for some 20-something's big blue eyes and cheerleader chassis overruns your self respect, tell her you agree with her "progressive" politics.

"There's some things I'd rather not know about."Thanks to the Teacher's Unions, if you have any questions, ask your socialist instructed, diversity trained third grade children. They will be able to fill in any gaps.
We've got a screwed up nation...
