Signs of the Times: UK School Bans Girls From Wearing Skirts to Make Transgender Kids More Comfortable
More propaganda setting the stage for the man of lawslessness
Deut. 22:5 A woman shall not be clothed with man's apparel, neither shall a man use
woman's apparel: for he that doeth these things is abominable before
God.
A
secondary school in the United Kingdom is not only making a uniform
that's “gender neutral,” it's also banning girls from wearing skirts
altogether.
The reason: to make the minority of transgender students feel more comfortable.
Tony Smith, the headmaster of Priory School in Lewes, East Sussex, made the change because several students were preoccupied with the fact that the school's uniforms differed between boys and girls.
“Pupils have been saying, 'Why do boys have to wear ties and girls don't?' and, 'Girls have different uniform to boys,'” he told The Telegraph. “So we decided to have the same uniform for everybody.”
Smith also noted the “small but increasing number of transgender students and, therefore, having the same uniform is important for them.”
Once again, the loud minority has impacted the majority.
Just like the mothers appalled by a kindergarten teacher at a charter school in Sacramento, California, who hosted a “transition ceremony” for a 5-year-old boy coming out as transgender, the U.K. parents hearing about this dress-code change are quite perturbed.
“My daughter and her friends are appalled by this,” one mother said. “The school is creating a hostile environment for girls.”
Another parent added:
It should be noted that, at least for now, the rule only applies to students in Year 7, which is equivalent to sixth grade, but it could be expanded in the future.
Smith said the policy was also enacted to address a number of complaints from the community about the girls' skirts being too short.
“We know the current uniform is not necessarily worn as respectfully as it should be," he said. "There were problems with decency and a number of issues raised by people in the community about how students were wearing [the] uniform.”
I suppose the increasing influence transgenderism is having in the classroom shouldn't be surprising. In July, The Telegraph reported that the number of children being referred to gender identity clinics has quadrupled in the past five years.
Medical experts said the spike is partly due to the fact that transgender issues are now so often promoted in the classroom, leaving a disproportionate number of students confused about their own sexuality.
The dress-code crackdown comes after about 30 boys from a nearby school in Exeter wore skirts to class in protest of a policy that barred them from wearing shorts despite the overwhelming heat, the BBC reported in June.
“We're not allowed to wear shorts, and I'm not sitting in trousers all day,” one of the boys participating in the protest said. “It's a bit hot.”
It looks like everyone will be hot now.

Another parent added:
“My daughter said she has got a gender, and it's female. So being gender neutral when she has got a gender is a big deal for her, as she proud to be a girl. I feel girls should be allowed to wear skirts if they want to.”That doesn't seem like it should be much of a controversy — yet it is.
