Telegraph - Activist teachers’ questioned pupils every term about their gender, parents claim

Worth remembering that this was said at the LGB Alliance conference (the one with some homophobes outside protesting at gays & lesbians meeting).
There's considerable concern about the impact of the "you've been born in the wrong body" crowd on children who'll likely grow up to be gay / lesbian.

Countless LGB parents have started looking closely at what's being taught to children in schools and this is coming out of that focus.

Well yes, that's the problem isn't it?

However I'm not inclined not to believe it either because to do so would be ignoring the vast amounts of utter insanity that has got us to this point.

i'm no longer able, at all, to discern where something comes on the spectrum of batshittery.

I'm in a permanent state of incredulity. A white linen wearing, free-flowing woke teacher probably isn't the most daft thing I've heard even this morning.

Generally the really weird ones are blokes with fetishes, not woman.

I'm assuming that was why Datun was trying to suggest it could be a man, even though they don't bleed and it would have definitely been reported as a man if it were a) a real thing and b) a man doing it.

So what would a woman, in normal employment by a school, be expecting to get out of this other than a P45 and to be hauled in front of a teacher misconduct panel?

I agree the claim needs backing up to be taken as absolute fact. However I'm not inclined not to believe it either because to do so would be ignoring the vast amounts of utter insanity that has got us to this point.

A menstruating female who is a secondary teacher in the UK deliberately doesn't use sanitary products so that she bleeds through her clothes in front of her classes in order to 'spark a conversation', apparently this is fine with the school because she does it repeatedly, and the first anyone hears about this is either at a conference where people would lap it up, or in a newspaper where the readers would lap it up?

That teacher with the massive fake boobs in Canada - there seems to be plenty of photographic evidence of that one. I'll be waiting for a bit more evidence for this one than 'I heard it from someone' or 'I read it in the Telegraph'.

Did anyone ever find those dinosaur kids who were being fed strips of meat?

Also, don't forget this delightful picture.

And the other thing is, of course, that despite the article referring to the person as she (which is clearly misgendering as they are non binary) they could equally have been a man.

There are plenty of men online claiming they have periods.

The sartorial choices of menstruating woman might seem far-fetched, but not really any more far-fetched than announcing you're neither male nor female.

We're so used to hearing that bollocks, that we forget how actually ludicrous it is.

Along with asking girls if they might really be boys.

Either. People lie or misreport things all the time.

The Telegraph appear to be reporting what was being said by parents and teachers at the LGB Alliance conference on Friday. Do you think they are mis-reporting what was said at the conference or that what was said at the conference was made up?

"Parents and former teachers spoke out about the infiltration of radical gender ideology in schools on Friday at a conference in central London hosted by LGB Alliance, the charity for gay, lesbian and bisexual people."

What a load of old bollocks. This is the Telegraph that also reported that kids identifying as dinosaurs were being fed strips of meat.

Someone on their reporting team is highly gullible and people are taking the piss out of that.

The parent said: “We’ve got a group of pupils at a school where one of the teachers is non-binary and this particular teacher has taught the pupils that she is neither male nor female.
“Therefore she is not required to wear sanitary protection when she menstruates. What she then does is she wears white, very light linen clothes when she menstruates so the blood shows through to generate a conversation with the kids.”
This story is not plausible. It is positively harmful and provides ammunition to conspiracy theorists.

Even if this person rejects the concept of binary sex, blood is still flowing out of her and requires containment. Just the same as if she cut herself accidentally. If she chooses to flow free she is spreading her bodily fluids around the school. Schools are really hot on the hygiene aspect of blood and other bodily fluids: first aiders must wear gloves when treating any injury that involves blood, and cleaners must use only bio-hazard coded equipment (usually red) when cleaning anything or anywhere that may be contaminated with bodily fluids.

I cannot imagine even the most woke of leadership or governers supporting this.

(Mind you, there's so much about this whole ideology that I cannot imagine anyone with an ounce of common sense or compassion supporting - yet people do.)
