Miami Herald Title: This gender crap needs to just stop,’ mom says after father-daughter dance postponed

Updated February 08, 2018 10:26 AMThis Friday was supposed to be a father-daughter dance for elementary school students in Staten Island, New York.
But now that dance had been postponed because of concerns that it would violate the state’s new gender guidelines that aim to create a more inclusive space for transgender people, according to the New York Post.
“Gender-based policies, rules, and practices can have the effect of marginalizing, stigmatizing, stereotyping and excluding students, whether or not they are transgender or gender nonconforming,” read the guidelines from the New York City Department of Education. “For these reasons, schools should review such policies, rules and practices, and should eliminate any that do not serve a clear pedagogical purpose.
Instead, the dance has been postponed until March, when people of all gender identities will be able to attend, according to CBS New York.
“We have clear guidelines in place that require schools to maintain welcoming and supportive environments at all events,” a spokeswoman for the Department of Education told Staten Island Live, “and (the principal) worked closely with the PTA to ensure the event was in the best interest of the entire school community.”
That hasn’t gone over well with some people with children at the school, PS 65.
“It’s almost as if they’re taking it away,” Matt West, a father, told CBS.Akaia Cameron, a mom of a third-grader at the school, didn’t mince words.
“All this gender crap needs to just stop,” she told the Post. Angelina Lubo, a fifth-grader who was preparing for the big dance, called it “kind of a letdown.”
Even Donald Trump Jr. weighed in on the controversy on Twitter:
“If this doesn’t convince you that the PC/SJW movement has lots their minds I don’t know what will. This nonsense really needs to stop.”
Glad to see The President weighing in on this crap.
