Happened at a Church of England school (Rye College) in East Sussex.

Daily Mail

I recognize some people consider the DM to be more of a tabloid than a proper news source. I went with their link, since it provides a recording of the exchange between the teacher and the student; but multiple other news sources are running the story as well.

quote:

The recording begins with the teacher asking one of the pupils: 'How dare you? You just really upset someone, saying things like [you] should be in an asylum.'

One of the girls responds: 'I didn't say that, I just said if they want to identify as a cow or something, then they are genuinely unwell, and they're crazy.'

'You were questioning their identity,' the teacher replies. 'Where did you get this idea from that there's only two genders?'

'I just said my opinion,' the pupil replies. 'If I respect their opinion, can't they respect mine?'

The teacher goes on to say it is 'not an opinion' and 'gender is not linked to the parts that you were born with, gender is about how you identify, which is what I said right from the very beginning of the lesson'.


GBN (via YouTube) is also discussing the issue:

teacher should be arrested for child abuse, then fired and lose her teaching credentials for life

Pretty sure the teacher in question is male.
But your point stands.

The whole gender thing is a societal test. If you can get everyone to believe something that is blatantly and obviously untrue, you can get them to believe anything.

I'm not sure we're not already there. Climate change, unarmed black men murdered by cops by the hundreds, and it wasn't some small fringe group that believed Covid was something it obviously was not. The gender/species thing is just the touchdown dance.

WRONG.

That's not a lesson. That's straight up indoctrination.

Agreed.

And what exactly is the focus of the “lesson” (”gender is not linked to the parts that you were born with, gender is about how you identify, which what I said right from the very beginning of the lesson”)?

Sorry teach, that’s factually inaccurate. You don’t get to choose your gender any more than you get to choose your species.

That’s crazy talk and I don’t agree with crazy talk.

Update - here's a current picture of the student for thinking there are only 2 genders...
