This is Australian National University.
According to the QS World University Rankings 2020, ANU is Australia’s top university.
Here’s some news coming our of ANU.
“ANU to drop ‘mother’ and ‘father’ in bid for gender inclusive education.
Academics at the nation’s top university have told staff to stop using the word ‘mother’
and replace it with ‘gestational parent’, while a ‘father’ should now be referred
to as a ‘non-birthing parent’ in order to deliver gender-inclusive education”.
My question, should we trust this university to teach our future leaders?
Does anybody actually agree with this madness?
Other words that the university are promoting.
Instead of using “breastfeeding” staff are now being asked to use the more inclusive
“chestfeeding”.
Apparently it’s not just people with breasts who breastfeed now.
“Academics called breastfeeding ‘ethically problematic’ because it endorses ‘gender
roles’.
Their view is gaining traction.
U.S. academics wrote in a study published in 2016 that the promotion of breastfeeding
as the ‘natural’ way to feed infants is ‘ethically problematic’”.
Yes, how dare we promote something that is ‘natural’?
Clearly nature is unethical.
Another word that ANU staff cannot use now, “mother’s milk”.
The more gender inclusive term “human milk” must be used instead.
Question, what if the person doesn’t identify as human?
Then surely we have ourselves a problem?
What about “life form milk”?
That will cover all bases, won’t it?
(Unless you identify as a rock).
Of course, you can’t use the terms mother and father anymore.
You must now say “gestational parent” or “non-gestational parent”.
I can imagine it now…
“Excuse me, Sir.
Are you the father of this child?”.
“How dare you assume I am the father!
I am the child’s non-gestational parent you ignoramus!
And it’s not a child.
It’s a non-gestational offspring thank you very much!”
What about babies?
I can see it now.
“Mama!”.
“No, I’m your gestational parent.
You say it, ‘Gestational Parent’”.
Yeah, good luck teaching any child to say that in the first 10 years of life.
Now that “breast” has been replaced with the more gender-inclusive term “chest”,
does that now mean that females at ANU can now walk around the campus topless?
I mean, if gender is not a thing anymore, they’d just be showing their chest right,
which is what men can do?
Of course, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day will have to be cancelled.
I mean, celebrating Mother’s Day would clearly make a fraction of a percentage of the population
upset.
You can look at all this splendid information by going to the ANU website and downloading
the “Gender-Inclusive Handbook – Every Voice Project”.
It contains many nuggets of information such as, “Try and schedule breaks for students
if you have a long class.
While a 20 minute break may not be feasible, consider ways to minimise the impact of the
lactation break on the student’s learning”.
“Um, excuse me Ma’am, I’m currently lactating.
Can I take a break?”.
“Oh, sure, please.
Okay class!
Lactation break!”.
Or, “Consider organising group work so there is diversity in each group, but make sure
that you do not leave a minority student alone in a group”.
So does this mean that teachers must now identify minorities and treat them differently (at
least, during group work)?
Isn’t that the definition of discrimination?
If I was a minority, I’d want to be treated just like everybody else!
“I’m sorry Jimmy, because you’re the only non-gestational lactating parent in the
room, I’m afraid you won’t be allowed to participate in group work as there are
no other non-gestational lactating parents that I can pair you with.
And the handbook clearly states that I cannot leave you alone in a group.
Sorry Jimmy.”
How many people do you actually know that are offended by the term “mother” or “breastfeeding”?
Do you actually know anybody?
I certainly don’t.
So if nobody is offended by it, why the f**k are we changing it?!
Because of some academics who decided that it was offensive?
Look, I’m not against people who identify as female or male or whatever.
But why must we change the language?
Human milk?
Gestational parents?
Chestfeeding?
What is all of this?
I’ll tell you what this is.
This is lunacy!
Every Australian should stand up against this, especially the staff at ANU.
These are not the ideas of a sane person.
This is some sort of indoctrination of stupidity.
