The Decline of Western Civilization: Perversity In The Classroom

May 13, 2008 by Joe · Leave a Comment 

I know that we live in an imperfect country, but I also know that this country in which we live in is closer to being the perfect country then any other country has ever gotten to. Sometimes even, it is the imperfections in our society that is what makes our country great. Other times, such as is the case with this story out of Haverford Township, PA, — I think to myself that maybe Armageddon can’t come soon enough. As a matter of fact, I think that it is stories such as this one, that makes me wonder if sometime soon God is going to strike down upon us and turn us all into pillars of salt.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer:

For school officials in Haverford Township, the challenge was daunting: What do you do when a 9-year-old student, with the full support of his parents, decides that he is no longer a boy and instead is a girl?

Parents of a third-grade student at Chatham Park Elementary School approached the administration on April 16 to ask for help in making a “social transition” for their child.

The Haverford School District consulted experts on transgender children, then sent letters to parents advising them that the guidance counselor would meet with the school’s 100 third-grade students to explain why their classmate would now wear girls’ clothes and be called by a girl’s name.

Some parents objected. Eight called the principal to ask that their child not attend the session, and some posted angry messages on the Haverford Township blog.

“Why is the school introducing this subject to 8- and 9-year-olds?” wrote the parent who started the blog thread, which had been viewed more than 3,000 times as of yesterday. “Why were we not notified sooner. We received the letter today, the discussion at school is tomorrow.”

Other parents thought the school should not have called attention to an already delicate situation.

“I did not think that the letter needed to go out,” said Valerie Huff, whose daughter is friends with the transgender student. “The kids don’t make any big deal about it at all.”

Mary Beth Lauer, district director of community relations, said there were no easy answers for school officials.

“This is something that was going to come out,” Lauer said. “Isn’t it better to be proactive, and let people know what is happening and how we’re dealing with it?”

The student has not received medical treatments to change his sex, but has told others that he considers himself a girl, according to several people who know the family.

He had begun wearing girls’ clothes, Huff said, and an approaching school event would have made the child’s gender identity an issue, according to Lauer, who declined to discuss the matter in greater detail.

In the April 21 letter to parents, Chatham Park principal Daniel D. Marsella wrote that a transgender child is one whose biological gender does not match his or her gender identity. Marsella assured parents that the talk with students, held two days later, would use “developmentally appropriate language” to explain “how we need to help this student make a social transition in school.”

When the guidance counselor, Catherine Mallam, spoke with the children, she explained that one of their classmates looked like a boy on the outside but felt like a girl inside, according to a summary of her remarks prepared by the school for parents. She asked them to accept the student as a girl and not make unkind remarks.

I’m not even sure where to begin my rant on this story; it literally makes me sick to my stomach thinking about it. The thought that this type of sick and twisted thinking is being allowed to spread throughout any level of public education — yet alone the third grade is just plain idiotic. This poor kid, whose mind is all twisted up, has complete fucking idiots for parents. The Haverford School District and Chatham Park Elementary School have complete fucking idiots for administrators.

When it comes to the issue of gender there is one undeniable, irrefutable, absolute truth — if you are born with a penis and testicles you are a male and if you are born with a vagina and ovaries you are a female. Period. End of discussion. Anybody who thinks otherwise is not only wrong, but they are so completely and utterly devoid of any common sense that they need to have a lobotomy.

It really seems pointless asking this question anymore, but have we really fallen into an abyss of degenerate thinking in this country that is so deep that this type of deviancy is considered normal? In a third grade classroom?

No wonder the Islamofascists call us the “great white satan,” because that’s what we have become as a society when we not only allow little 8-year-old Johnny to pretend that he’s really little 8-year-old Jenny but we encourage it and try to explain it to his 8 year old classmates.
