Washington State has issued new standards to public schools on teaching kids as young as kindergarten about the myriad of genders we have invented:
Beginning in Kindergarten, students will be taught about the many ways to express gender. Gender expression education will include information about the manifestations of traits that are typically associated with one gender. Crossdressing is one form of gender expression. [...]
Fourth graders will be expected to “define sexual orientation,” which refers to whether a person identifies as heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual; they’ll also be taught about HIV prevention. Children in fourth grade will be told that they can choose their sexual orientation.
Whether you are morally opposed to homosexual activity or not, so-called gender identity is not an appropriate topic for five-year-olds. And certainly, the discussion of any sexual activity is not appropriate for 10-year-olds.
It seems like alarmism and hysteria to declare we live under a totalitarian system, but how else to describe a system of indoctrination under governmental authority that declares parents and their professed moral views to be irrelevant to the greater need of society to shape children according to the social re-engineering principles in vogue.
I think we need to turn to science for that answer. I bet we could find the gender gene if you looked hard enough 🙂
These poor kids will be going in to Biology 101 having been taught a false secular dogma about gender. A dogma that goes against science and reason. The government is telling us we have to believe something that has no basis whatsoever. How is this not establishment of a state religion?
To question ‘gender expression education’ is not being alarmist, it is being sane.
