Science textbooks

[ThreeLittleDinosaursROAR]

My children are still very young, but I'm considering buying a biology textbook or two as the way things are going, I'm worried they'll be changed. It feels a bit like we'll end up like Texas America but instead of excluding evolution it'll be human biology and anatomy.
Do you think my concerns are far fetched or maybe worth buying a textbook or 2?

but secondary biology teachers across the land are raising their eyebrows when a student suggests that somebody can change their sex.

But are they raising their voices or, like many of us, are they too afraid?

I would recommend buying yes. There is a movement to change what is taught in college biology to become more inclusive, specifically of trans issues. That is for example instead of saying:

“Males get a Y chromosome from their father”

Saying

“Biological males get a Y chromosome from their sperm producing father”

And yes I’m serious I have seen a presentation on this nonsense. I can tell you it is going to be seriously NON inclusive to any ESL students or students who are less well prepared.

As usual, Inclusivity for privileged white people LARPinh as the opposite sex.

Exclusivity for everyone else, including non white and immigrant students.

Just the raising of eyebrows and correction in the classroom and lots of muttering of words under their breath. I haven't seen much said openly.
Luckily, the specification still clearly lays out what sex is and our diagrams accurately label male and female bodies so the exam bodies are firmly on our side.

Hunting through books on puberty now. Most recent ones have immensely complex descriptions of gender identity/expression/queering, that I can't even understand, not sure how a primary school kid will fathom them.
Older ones have questionable terms like 'nympho' in the glossary ...

Somehow I feel like I've got to squeeze between old school sexism and trendy nouveau sexism.

@ScrimshawTheSecond Look circa 2010. I can't remember there being anything confusing in the booklets we were given in school!

Thanks, ThreeLittleDinosaurs - 2010 was the golden age, then? .
