Don't calls girls 'girls' or 'young women' in case it offends pupils questioning their gender identity, schools are told 

 

  • Head teachers belonging to the Girls' Schools Association given advice
  • Told to use gender-neutral words like 'pupils' to avoid discrimination
  • Person behind advice branded term 'young ladies' sexist and 'transphobic' 

Teachers at Britain's leading girls' schools have been told not to call pupils 'girls' or 'young women' in case it offends any questioning their gender identity.

Head teachers belonging to the Girls' Schools Association were instructed to use gender-neutral words like 'pupils' or 'students' to avoid discrimination.

The advice issued last week also banned the phrase 'young ladies' and recommended the creation of unisex lavatories. 

Caroline Jordan, President of the GSA and headmistress of £33,000-a-year Headington School in Oxfordshire, backed the advice saying it affects an increasing number of young people questioning their identity.

'In assemblies, instead of saying "Girls, go to lessons," staff should consider saying "Pupils, go to lessons," or "Students, go to lessons,"' she told the Sunday Times.

'I do not want anyone to think that girls' or boys' schools are invested in one way of being a girl or one way of being a boy.

FFS.  More of the psychopaths' BS.  Why should 99.97% of Us worry about what the 0.03% "transgendered" People are choosing to feel about the universe They find Themselves in?

I can see the Western population finally losing their patience and snapping...very soon...what is presented in the MSM, in no way represents what the majority of people are thinking and saying in confidence.

You can only push people so far.

Maybe...  But that passivity of the fluoride...  May We walk away from all those psychopath-promoting systems.

The obvious solution is to adopt the word marklar as the universal word for all people places and things.

I marklar that You marklar, so marklar on the marklar, and marklar will marklar!  Excellent!

Don't enable the mentally ill.

Political correctness is destroying this country and the world! Our feelings aren't protected and we''re becoming tremendous pussies. This generation will never survive being called a name!

 

How is calling a child a "pupil" NOT offensive if all things are now offensive? Is it the 'all seeing eye thing'? Shouldn't they each individually be called 'Pupils'? And then again I have to wonder what happened to the old saying, " Sticks and stones break the bones but names will never harm me."? It seems the sticks and stones and war and government torture etc are ok now but the name calling thing has really got the 'panties in a wad'! Silly (dangerous) shit; glad I live in the woods.

It's an insane world.

Just call 'em 'cockpits'  & no one's feelings get hurt...

You ARE a comedian, aren't You?  Hahahahahaha!

I'm a smart-ass. The day I start getting paid to be a smart-ass, is the day I'm a comedian.
