Mount Holyoke, a women’s college in Massachusetts, is discouraging professors from using the word “women.”

The code of conduct was issued by the school in a document titled, “Supporting Trans and Non-Binary Students” from the college’s Teaching and Learning Initiative, a hub for student-centered teaching.



quote:

“As we know, not every Mount Holyoke student identifies as a woman. But every student at Mount Holyoke has the right to live and learn in an inclusive environment that is free from hostility and respectful of their identity. We are deeply committed to this belief — and to all of our students.

So if I merely state I believe I am a woman then I can enroll on their college? Can I live in their dorms and shower with them?

I can't wait to see how far this policy gets stretched before it bounces back to smack them in the face.

That's what I found interesting. Their own admissions policy clearly requires applicants to be "women."

But, they're all for inclusion and all, so...

Any label, by definition, is exclusive. If this is about inclusivity why not ban all labels?

"Uh, you can't say "Tiger Fans" because when you use that label you're excluding all the non-Tiger fans..."

That would make it an Alt-Women's college

These people are fricking retarded.

Not every human is a man. I don't feel "not included" if someone talks about women.

So, even if you accept this idea that there's something other than men and women.........OK............that doesn't mean referring to a man or a woman is "non inclusive". Men and women STILL exist.

Oh. And, not to put too fine a point on it. But if you feel like being referred to as a woman is insulting to you, why did you apply to an "all woman's college"? That's awfully strange behavior for someone who isn't a woman.

How does this even work? If your application says that only “women” can apply, then how do they have students there that are not “women”. Yeah, I will never understand “gender fluidity”, but if you decide to change your gender so that you are not a woman, then you should be forced to leave the college.

So just using a basic word like 'woman' at an ALL-WOMEN'S COLLEGE is now considered hostility?

These stupid fricks have no standards of any kind apparently.

I guess pretty soon Newton's Laws will be considered hostile to those things adversely affected by them and there will be a petition to repeal them. It starts with a March led by a bunch green and pink haired imbeciles all tatted up and screaming for their "rights."

When writing letters of recommendation or any other official communication about a student (especially students who’ve come out to you as trans or gender-nonconforming or non-binary), write a quick email to ensure that you’re using the correct name and/or pronoun for that context. A good rule of thumb: If you’re not sure, ask!


Dear Student,
What do I call your kind?
Sincerely,
PAT
