Schwarzenegger Signs Bill Banning Words "Mom," "Dad," "Husband," and "Wife" In Schools For Insensitivity To Gays?Not sure if the analysis here, offered mostly by family-values type lobbyists, is correct. The theory is that by signing the law prohibiting any sort of discrimination as regards sexuality, the law effectively bans the concept of mom and dad, husband and wife, as being discriminatory words, at least if not used with reference to same-sex parents. Is that true? I sort of think that will end up being the result -- the claims from the academics and corner-case sexuality mavens is that any such language is "heteronormative" and thus implicitly discriminating. And of course people with degrees in education like to pretend they're actually part of the academic community, so they will slavishly follow these sorts of diktats. A lot of the rhetoric in this article is overwrought, but I think they'll wind up being right about the legal effect. "Mom and Dad" as well as "husband and wife" effectively have been banned from California schools under a bill signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who with his signature also ordered public schools to allow boys to use girls restrooms and locker rooms, and vice versa, if they choose. The laser-like focus on children, and Orwellian language, is pretty creepy. I'm reminded of this scene from Life of Brian. This is all symbolic of the Lorettas of the world and their struggle against simple biological reality. Straight or gay, raised by one parent or two, living with one's biological parents or not -- I've got news for Loretta. You've got a mom, and you've got a father, at least a biological one. Maybe we can outlaw reality next as inconvenient and often hurtful. Thanks to Roland. | Recent Comments
