No Boys or Girls Allowed at Swedish Gender Neutral Preschool [Video]

The video on this page is disgusting. They say nothing of value.

"For the MOST PART, women will ALWAY be….and men will ALWAYS be" it's that contradiction right there. And if you weren't so ignorant and actually broke out of what I see you doing here (naturalizing what you grew up in, turning evolutionary psychology into imright.com whenever you hear of something different that doesn't meat up with your social experience of gender) you'd know a little more about the research done into the socialization process of children from a very early age and what it does to them, and you'd also know that this school is trying to combat racism as well. You'd ALSO do well to note that while this seems like one huge crazy social experiment to you, is not designating your child as either a boy or a girl, is not assigning a gender from day one and imposing a gender binary before your child has any way of exploring or expressing themselves equally a culturally constructed social experiment that Western society has been in love with since christian times? Is that not also a social experiment? Most indiginous cultures have some place for the gender variants that are respected and don't have to fight for recognition and validation. I think you'd do well to atleast read what I have to say. And yes it's long. I beg you, yes, beg, take some time and learn something. Hear me out. First, control for ALL variables here, including the fact that parents tend to make more eye contact with baby girls, talk to them more and have lower expectations of her when she's climbing a tree, even when they claim to be liberal about gender roles and don't know they are doing it. I'll argue that children should be given a blank slate. Once they're called a boy and dressed in "boy", then they see "boy" doing something on TV, they are already being brainwashed into doing that thing, whether they like it or not, whether there was a whole other host of "girl" things they would rather be doing. Like if this child with XY chromosomes is in a completely gender nuetral environment, and he naturally gravitates towards traditionally male things without any suggestion he should, then fine. that's great. But at least give this child an EQUAL OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE the worlds of both genders! This is what I stand for. I'm speaking not as a pc liberal crazy. I am speaking as a human being. I am speaking as a human being who has been personally hurt by the imposition of genders and the lack of socially validated opportunities to explore the "other side" in my earlier years, As a human who has felt the fear, lonliness, the social punishments for being gender nonconforming throughout my grade school days. Some people will go to this school and end up gravitating towards the traditional gendered stuff. great. let them gender themselves as they see fit. Others will end up going the opposite to what'd be expected of them based on anatomy. Others will be in between. All of this should be celebrated and respected. Our system of imposing a gender binary REFUSES to celebrate anything other than cis-man and cis-woman. If statistically, it just happens to be more the XY'ers who go towards the football and the more XX'ers who go towards the dolls, than do the world a service and don't publish this data with a public bang, don't even take that down this data. Because otherwise, people will be reaffirmed of the value of gender categories and use them to polarize our minds, and limit us, limit our mental, suffocate our preffered expression and potential by burning down the gender neutral preschools under the name of innate sex differences. My argument here isn't that there necessarily won't be a statistical difference between those children who are actually XY vs XX, but that that difference should not automatically and by default be generalized to everyone, and be used to categorize people from DAY ONE, be used to stimulate their minds in two completely different ways from DAY ONE, be used to limit diversity from DAY ONE, and be used to create stigma, deligitimize, invalidate and place in a social no-man's land us gender nonconformers. BEcause like it or not, that is what it does. And btw, I doubt any Swedish preschool has toy guns and armies. That's just a Swedish thing (or maybe just a not-America thing) not a gender neutralizing thing. I thank you for reading this.

And you should also know that no government is forcing anyone to go here. Parents select and not everyone who wants their kid to get in even can because of the waiting list. So its not like the Swedish govt has it out to artificially engineer any one's kids. they are just responding to the demand of their people, and as a more socialist nation, yes they end up using taxpayer dollars to respond to the demand of their people, in this case, mainly the LGBT parents.
