    Modern Family

    Modern Family-150631854_10157829073531105_7880471628520260495_n-jpg
    Academics at an Australian university have told staff to stop using the words “mother’’ and “father’’ in favour of terms like “gestational parent” and “non-birthing parent” in order to deliver gender-inclusive education.

    ..."Hello, have you seen my parents, Ges and Non-b?...
    Majestically enthroned amid the vulgar herd

    This strikes me as one of those things that probably isn't true and is based-off of something that has likely been misinterpreted--wilfully or otherwise--and that the right-wing media have glommed onto and ran about losing their collective shit over, screaming about the sky falling.

    More grist for the mill.

    Ho hum...it's a Daily Mail 'report' on a handbook of the ANU's Gender Institute, is not official policy, and deals with language use in 'abstract academic discussions' and research.

    In other words it effects and impacts on precisely nobody. Another Dr. Suess-esque media beat up. Oh look and it worked.

    The fact that it's even being discussed is showing how ridiculous that whole side of 'academia' has become. The fact that whoever wrote it is being taken seriously.

    Will be policy in a couple years. Just like biological men competing in womens sports kids happy meals coming with only a unisex toy instead one for each gender.

    But hey, grist for the fucking mill.

    'abstract academic discussions' and research.
    The initial origins of all of this bullshit

    Bizarre how academia can do stupid shit, said stupid shit gets posted by an elderly homosexual liberal, stupid shit gets roasted for the stupid shit it is, and here comes Anthony, ready and willing to cover for all the above and somehow move heaven earth to STILL make it about..... His personal boogeyman, the right.

    You can’t post without vomiting up a strawman can you.

    I feel this little non sequitur / rant is inspired by some residual butthurt over being schooled yesterday.
