I have MANY friends who fall outside gender norms, and not one of them demand that everyone use their preferred pronouns for everyone else. Over-exaggeration is not truth and is NOT helpful. If there are any schools doing this, they are small, private colleges, not public elementary schools.
@cdwardNo, John is doing a great job of pointing out the idiocy that PC has become. My favorite example of PC going insane was the decree that you cannot call retarded people retarded. So they substituted the word handicapped and then special. As children are, they just took the new terms and turned them into the insults that they used old term “retarded” for. You cannot legislate or decree good behavior.

Seriously, John, what has gotten into you? Name me a single public school that has forced kids to stop saying he and she. Do you just hate schools?

It is fascinating how a small fraction of the population has succeeded in controlling the language. Apparently we are sheep.

Anyone who claims to believe 100% in the Christian Bible as the Revealed Word of a Loving and Generous God has obviously not Read the Entire Book..
