How can a 3 year old get kicked out of school for being transphobic? That is what happened in the U.K, according to The Telegraph:
“Department for Education (DfE) data show the child, aged either three or four, was suspended from a state school in the 2022-23 academic year for “abuse against sexual orientation and gender identity.”
How in the world can a 3 or 4 year old abuse someone’s gender orientation? A safe guess would be that a young child saw that his or her classmate was clearly a boy or a girl but pretending to be otherwise and pointed that out.
The Telegraph goes on: “statistics show that 94 pupils at state primary schools were suspended or permanently excluded for transphobia and homophobia in 2022-23.” They don’t give further details on the case but to protect gender identity to the point of kicking children out of schools is outrageous.
The Prime Minister’s office responded to this by saying “Obviously, the Prime Minister would not support those sorts of measures. But equally, I don’t know the specific incident.”
