For years, Sharon High School parents had help finding their sons and daughters among the sea of gowns on graduation day: boys all sported deep maroon, while girls wore pristine white.
But last year, students approached principal Jose Libano with a proposal: end the tradition, which alienated some students. Now, all graduates wear maroon.
Around the region, longstanding customs of assigning graduation colors by sex are giving way to new realities, driven by transgender student activists and supportive educators and classmates of all stripes.

This is the new progress?
normal people have their “gender identity” sorted before they are 2
“Oh look, I go a pee pee, I’m a boy!”
Well, there was that commencement scene at the end of “Patch Adams”, lol.
The quest to normalize deviancy is becoming more severe and unrelenting.
Satan: “I am no devil for there is none, and there is no God and therefore there is no sin, except for whatever I happen to condemn.”
Sums it up pretty well, in my opinion.
I guess you have all kinds of time to sort out your gender when the employment prospects for their generation is bleak
I tend to think this is a fad, which may last a decade or two. Then, the high schoolers will see Grandad and Granmas Cap and Gown pic’s online, and become envious, or at least curious.

Mars Attacks press conference scene: *androgynous person says in heavily wrong voice* “Do the aliens have two sexes like we do?”
cause, you know, they represent the majority of people.
Evidently biology has escaped everyone in the district...
“The change reflects a growing awareness that simple categories of male and female do not fit every teenager.”
Honestly, I have no clue as to how to respond to that statement, except to say that it is more of an indictment against the adults. How can such insanity be trotted out as wisdom?

Simple question....the biology teacher couldn’t tell the difference between male and female>>>>>>see ya!
William F Buckley’s home town.
I’ll lay money on it the idea to do this did not originate within the student body itself but rather a perv activist organization who made the suggestion
The battle is lost when it comes to government schools. Those of you taking refuge at private religious schools must be on guard for the SJW youth ministers, liberal lay people, and those wacky English teachers who want your kids to read filth.
