Bump!
This school board just violated this teacher's rights with no justification at all.
America’s Jordan Peterson?
You know what alternative there is to all of this?
The alternative is to neither speak to, nor about, a trans person at all; as if they do not exist.
Look, if you must use improper words when speaking to them or about them; if you are legally bound to use words that violate your right of conscience, then your only place of refuge is SILENCE in regard to them. You cannot mention them, nor address them; you act, instead, as if they simply do not exist.
So, now, ask the self-mis-gendered person which is worse: to be addressed in terms they don’t prefer, or to not be addressed at all?
The kids are waking up. It’s called Free Speech.
I’m an uneducated white deplorable. I would just call it....Hey dipschitt.....
Just say “hey you” and nothing else.
He should have identified as a Moslem, then it would all be A-OK!
Seriously, this insanity HAS TO STOP. My husband’s company yesterday just sent out a memo to all managers (he is one) about how they must behave regarding this insanity. Yes, his co. is very liberal, so they have no trouble finger-waving that everyone must obey whatever some nutjob wants.
He said he will identify as royalty and must be referred to as “Your Majesty”.
The adults are participating in this child abuse crap. The future will look back on these days in horror
Gender is sort of important to a teacher of French, and the rules pertaining to its usage don’t include politics or princess fantasies.
I’m sure the school will support the students’ right to protest
There is one good thing to come of all this.
I did subcontracting on government construction projects for many years. I ran into many roadblocks because I am white and many projects require a certain percentage of minority contractors.
I believe there is a real legal case to be made if I just identified as a crippled black lesbian. Would they be able to deny me? I don’t think so since they make such a huge deal about anyone can be anything.
I’m too old and worn out to fight it but it sure opens it up for someone to do it.
My salutation in the Develop system is “His Royal Highness”.
It would be Age Discrimination to force me to remember pronouns. Besides, according to the system, I’m Trans. They allowed us to change our sex so I now a woman. I now know the shame of being ogled at work by men.
This is where Jordan Peterson first got a lot of traction. By protesting and refusing to along with University of Toronto regulations that forced instructors and other students to address WACKY-TRANS students by their concocted trans gender name. And there were something like 50 of these invented names.
Good for them! This “trans” nonsense has to stop.
Your mental illness does not require me to humor your delusions
His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada Alberta's Child, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular.
We’ll remember the courage of those who protested, but the teacher is out and hundreds more will be out for not using the “correct” pronouns.
We do not live in the land of the free. There is no freedom of speech. Both are a farce and a cruel joke.
