| Subject: Statist insanity: Government Survey Asks 13-Year-Olds to Pick Their Gender (or Genders) from a List of 25 Tue Feb 02, 2016 8:18 pm | |
| Parents of kids in Brighton, England are not too happy.
Schoolchildren as young as 13 in Brighton, England were told to fill out a government survey that asked them to pick out their gender (or genders) from a list of 25 options.
Yes — gender or genders.
Among the options were “tri-gender” (having exactly three genders,) “gender fluid” (having your gender change over time,) “demi-boy/demi-girl” (someone who is only partially male/female,) and “all genders” (which would be an infinite number because gender is obviously a spectrum.)
Below is the complete list, from which instructed students to “choose as many as [they] want:”
Male Female Girl Boy Tomboy (Young) woman (Young) man Trans-girl Trans-boy Gender fluid Agender Androgynous Bi-gender Non-binary Demi-boy Demi-girl Genderqueer Gender non-conforming Tri-gender All genders In the middle of boy and girl Intersex Not sure Rather not say Others
Note: The “others” option was not included as part of the checklist, but rather as a free-form box below it where students could write in absolutely anything that they wanted. After all, just 24 choices would clearly not be enough.
