Gender

Today is “Gender Bender” day at school. On one hand I’m kind of horrified at the idea; on the other hand it is kind of interesting to see what the kids will do and how it will piss me off (cause it surely will from a few of them). The kids told me I HAD TO participate. So I stole Noah’s button up short sleeved shirt and kilt. Hey–it’s practically a uniform for most of my male friends! Oh, and my knee high Fry’s boots. They totally won’t get it, but I do.

I’m feeling very tempted to basically punt on the lesson plan and go with discussions of what “gender” actually means/implys in our little society here at school. Hmmmmmm

    Great idea…get in their little heads and infect them with your dangerous liberal ways!!!!!! 😀 (I’m still appalled by this “conservipedia” thing I just heard about on NPR – ranting in my head about “conservatives”)

    I think it’s nice to make a dent in their gender norms and some of them will have their lives changed by you in very positive ways as a result – however , some simply won’t get it. I love love gender bending, but I suspect I don’t do it in quite the same ways your kids are today.
