I don't know how someone can sit a keyboard and write this stuff and not realise how flippin awful it sounds

The school is Colston School - he whose statue ended up in the river at Bristol. @colstonsschool Maybe the wokeness is over compensation for name embarrassment. I don't agree with knee jerk name changes but I can see if the management are under the spotlight for Colston it might be a factor in the over-reach here. A reason not an excuse mind you.

God, who has the TIME for all of this? This endless, tireless navel-gazing.

EishetChayil · 25/06/2021 19:06

Who sat down and designed those flags??

InspiralCoalescenceRingdown · 25/06/2021 19:15

The description of intersex takes the biscuit. I can't figure out if it's insulting and inaccurate, or inaccurate and insulting.

Given the pride flag apparently represents LGBTQ+ and black people, I guess @DolphinFC sees 'no issue' with excluding British Asians and other ethnic minorities?

Apparently bisexuals are attracted to more than one gender, but not all? What on earth?

Since the pupils are presumably mostly or all children, are they non-women, non-men, both or neither?

I remember watching a documentary once about weird sexual proclivities where it brought up a man who was arrested for trying to have sex with a lamppost. Men and lampposts are both non-women, right?

Actually I take your point.

Clymene · 25/06/2021 19:57

Do you mean Colston's Girls' School? A school which is only open to girls is calling lesbians non-men?

FUCK OFF

FUCK OFF

Looks like it’s the private co-ed school?

Still, with fees of at £15k a year I’d be a bit miffed at this nonsense being pushed.

Clymene · 25/06/2021 21:06

Oh! I hope all the parents of the girls take them out. Women and girls are not NON MEN

@TheWeeDonkey

There's another thread on here a KS1 teacher of ASD children who is trying to get material to teach her children the differences between men and women. How does this language help children like that?

@TheWeeDonkey where is this? Might be able to help

elgreco · 25/06/2021 21:23

The asexual flag is a bit depressing .

TheWeeDonkey · 25/06/2021 21:29

Its in Sex & Gender Warrior Teaching Children to Recognise Sex.

WarriorN · 25/06/2021 21:33

Glad to see they're being ratioed on twitter.

Claire Graham have a really impassioned fb description of how it makes young people with dsd feel to be used like this in schools. Especially a child in the school who has a dsd.

WarriorN · 25/06/2021 21:35

Thanks weedonkey

PurpleHoodie · 25/06/2021 21:42

"Non-men"?

Fuck off.

GetTheeToTheGulag · 25/06/2021 21:43

So many things wrong with the flags illustration it's staggering. Agree with InspiralCoalescenceRingdown

LGBTQ+ and black people how can anyone write that and not see a problem.

But they've managed to insult just about every one of the LGBTQ they've attempted to explain as well as a scattering of grammar errors.

Does anyone teach children about heterosexual sex any more? Sometimes I think it is all a plot to reduce the world population. I might even be a bit more forgiving if there was an end goal that would help save the planet.

I do hope they get LOTS of complaints from parents.

Defaultname · 25/06/2021 21:44

Adult attracted to adults= non-nonce.
Woke school= non-sense.

PurpleHoodie · 25/06/2021 21:44

Worldwide, parents are going to have to do a bit more digging before they pay to send their children to such sh holes. I know I am.

PurpleHoodie · 25/06/2021 21:46

Research digging.

GNCQ · 25/06/2021 21:46

Fuck that bs, in the middle is intersex "some people can have both sets of genitalia" which is incorrect.

No human on the entire planet has both sets of (functioning) genitalia!

"Some people have ambiguous genitalia" is scientifically accurate. And the rest is just.... Stop it.

Who designed all these descriptors, was it Stonewall?

Did anyone notice the photo of the bookcase with the message "Read with Pride"

If I were the parent I would be livid that they are promoting Alex Bertie's 'Trans Mission' and Juno Dawson's 'What's the T'

School describes lesbians as non-men attracted to non-men

Will somebody please teach them the difference between lays & lies & between who's & whose, as well.

Ekofisk · 25/06/2021 22:02

I also note that the transgender flag declares that “gender assigned at birth” is a thing and bisexual is being “attracted to more than one gender but not all genders”.

I’m always a bit confused about the trans flag being pink and blue - or is that just to affirm the whole “girls like pink and boys like blue” stereotype?

Well...'lies' are untrue, misleading statements.
campion · 25/06/2021 22:07

Has their English department closed? 'Lays' 'Who's' etc

That aside, parents are paying for this mendacious fiction? More fool them.

PurpleHoodie · 25/06/2021 22:12

The Green Party went with "non-men" for a while but think thats been changed after women objected.

The Green Party can fuck of, and get back to concentrating on issues of pollution, food miles and human trafficking.

viques · 26/06/2021 11:06

And another thing, I am pretty sure that hanging flags, however woke and worthy, over a bannister rail is a fire hazard. Hope their local fire station spots them.
