A 12-year-old student was allegedly sent home from school after he refused to change his T-shirt that said, "There are only two genders."
Liam Morrison, a seventh-grader at Nichols Middle School in Middleborough, Massachusetts, said he was taken out of gym class on March 21 and met with school staff who told him people were complaining about the statement on his shirt and that it made them feel "unsafe." His comments were picked up by popular Twitter account LibsofTikTok.
"Yes, words on a shirt made people feel unsafe. They told me that I wasn't in trouble, but it sure felt like I was. I was told that I would need to remove my shirt before I could return to class. When I nicely told them that I didn't want to do that, they called my father," he explained during a Middleborough School Committee meeting on April 13.
"Thankfully, my dad, supportive of my decisions, came to pick me up. What did my shirt say? Five simple words: There are only two genders. Nothing harmful. Nothing threatening. Just a statement I believe to be a fact," he said.
Morrison added that he was told his shirt was "targeting a protected class" and was a "disruption to learning." "Who is this protected class? Are their feelings more important than my rights?" he asked. "I don't complain when I see Pride flags and diversity posters hung throughout the school. Do you know why? Because others have a right to their beliefs, just as I do," he said.

But a shirt displaying a Whitman’s sampler of perversions?
{{{crickets}}}
My version of the shirt would say
THERE ARE ONLY TWO SEXES (NOT GENDERS)
CHECK YOUR PANTS FOR MORE INFORMATION
Excellent presentation by the 12-year-old.
I got a feeling the young man wrote that himself. He is a bright student, and he will long remember this lesson. Hopefully, the board members will, also.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Right on! Right on! Right on!

If that happens, I won’t be surprised!
What’s all this crap about the Millies and the Zeros always being afraid and feeling “unsafe” around Americans. We need to deport all those little sissy biatches. Send them all to Venezuela. There’s a lot of safe sh*t down there now that the population has slimed its way into the U.S.
Good for that kid!
The truth to wokies is like garlic to a vampire. The Obama-Biden followers are some sick mofos.
Good for him. Shame on the woke school.
And what did the school board do? Apologize, allow the shirt in the future, or say No?
Afghanistan works too!
Notice how he ended his statement to the school board:
"I hope that you will speak up for the rest of us, so we can express ourselves without being pulled out of class. Next time, it may not only be me. There might be more soon that decide to speak out."
Let's hope he's right.
School is a Truth Free Zone.
He spoke and handled himself very well and should be proud of himself for standing up for himself. He should go back wearing a shirt that states “there are only two kinds of sex chromosomes”.
Expect to soon see a headline announcing:

Good one Allegra.
