Author Topic: Sweden has gender neutral schools.  (Read 14755 times)

I'm sorry scientists use monkeys to research behavior since they're comparable to humans? We do the same thing with drug trials on mice, what the forget is your point?

Because this isn't about how certain genders play with certain toys, it's about delivering education to children without instilling any sort of stereotypes or biases in the children going to school. It's easy to cite a case study on the cultural behavior of a chimp but that's pretty much irrelevant when it comes to more complex sociological issues like this. I've read deeper into Sweden's gender-neutral schools and while they seem to be operating off of a few good ideas, there are some strange choices (Such as not addressing children by their pronouns, preferring a supposedly gender-neutral "Hen" pronoun..?)

All in all, it seems everyone is too willing to just dismiss this as some kind of stunted faux-progressive gig, just because it has the word gender neutral slapped on it. The video Tony linked isn't helping because it's playing up the sensationalism like nobody's business.

On the off-chance you want to look into it further before trying to argue about this, here's an interesting research journal on the matter.

The toys were just an example of how bushing this gender neutral nonsense onto kids is bullstuff. Where at any point in education in 2017 do we focus on the love and gender of students unless it's for love ed? The entire point of these gender neutral schools is to push these gender-neutral pronouns onto kids with no sense of self to begin with. You keep calling an 8 year old male a gender neutral pronoun he's gonna get confused.
This is just another step in the total pussification of Sweden. As if making excuses for migrant rapists didn't emasculate their men enough, now we have their children being indoctrinated into the kind of thinking that leads to neo-masculine manlets that think dressing in plaid and growing a beard is the pinnacle of manliness.

This is not only besides the original point as far as I've read, it's completely unfounded, unsubstantiated claims.

I don't know what to say other than this is completely delusional sensationalist bullstuff. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

Also, the point of these schools are to provide education without trying to push gender stereotypes on children. The people that originally proposed this idea had done so because of a study on Swedish culture that lead to an experimental kind of schooling. Sweden happens to do things like this a lot, sociological experiments for the sake of examination and research. I don't know much about Swedish culture, especially not on the preschool level, but to immediately write off experiments as detrimental before reading ANY of the scientific material, and then to start complaining about the "Pussification" of Sweden, is completely ridiculous.

It doesn't matter how many people fall for the video linked by Tony, you're just wrong about this one. I don't know why you keep forming such strong opinions on things without getting the full picture, but I'm finding it increasingly hard to take your statements seriously.

For forget sake I hate it when people think girls and boys are the same mentally. Reality: They are not, boys and girls are different both physically and mentally.

I think it was less about circumventing this, and more about (as they claim) delivering education to children on the preschool level without instilling unfair stereotypes through common Swedish school environments.

I can definitely understand some of the reasoning behind it, but beyond what I've read, I have no idea how Swedish's culture operates, so take this with a grain of salt.

it's interesting how sweden is in a perpetual state of trying new things out, and delivering them the wrong way

^^ i showed this video to some swedish friends and they all agreed it was loving stupid to see some random american dude trying to weigh in on what their culture is

it's ok because sweden has joel

what the actual forget is wrong with you

this male child, who was force fed estrogen by his (((lesbian))) parents, in the state of (((california))) grew up to be the ForeverAlone unabomber ted (((macklemore)))

his smile and optimism: gone

now i dare you good sir sit there and tell me the ethics in gaming journalism haven't had an affect on the youth of today, turning them into homos. i IMPLORE you to question me on this serious topic which left several people dead either via explosion or (((BMW))) bumper, this is your average child in sweden who grows up watching straight women be murdered or raped or both and not in that order by innocent migrant refugees who all have a collective IQ of 70 or below who move into once civilized nations and turn new years eve into the best heavy-r videos ever made.

i'm glad the national socialists and soviets died and angela merkel is here to stay, at least she can grow a proper moustache. forget malaise, forget it forever. bill clinton is a black man.

imbeciles...

I wouldn't expect you to understand any of this, considering most of you have blinders on when it comes to stuff like this.

Typical comment about how everyone's blind of the "Actual truth" you seemingly know despite not reading into the situation at all. Get over yourself, and stop coming to these hard conclusions on things you can't even be arsed to fully read up on.

I thought Deus Ex implied machine-like intelligence/god from the machine, but all we have is a BLF member trying to shove their national socialist rhetoric down our gullets and make us drink their progressive kool aid. No thanks Mr Sachs, not today.
