MILWAUKEE (WITI) Students at Tippecanoe School have participated in several different theme days during School Spirit Week, but Friday, May 23rd’s theme of Gender Bender Day caused some controversy. Members of the Student Council decided on day’s theme. It called for boys to dress like girls and girls to dress like boys. “I was speechless actually, and I asked a few of the neighbors because I thought I was overreacting, stuff like that, and everybody was speechless,” said one mother, who asked not to be identified. The mother says she has no problem with teenagers having a fun day of dressing like the opposite sex, but her son is only seven and the theme confused him. She, as well as a few other parents, chose to keep their kids home on Friday. Milwaukee Public Schools says participation is 100 percent voluntary, however after some parental complaints, the name of the theme was changed to Switch It Up Day. One student’s father, who didn’t want to be identified, says he doesn’t want his son to dress as a girl. “I think it’s just teaching them the wrong lesson about gender. If you’re a boy, stay a boy. You shouldn’t have something like that at school,” said the father. School board member Terrence Falk believes those creating a controversy are using the kids for political purposes. “This is nothing new. I don’t think they kids were thinking about sexual orientation,” said Falk. FOX6 News didn’t find any kids who showed up to school dressed like the opposite sex. It turns out mostly teachers and other staff members had the Switch It Up spirit.

I think the important thing to note here is that nobody showed up to school like a cross dressing tranny. Like the world hasn’t gonna completely off the deep end. The new age trend is this Gender Neutral shit. Parents raising their kids with no gender. Eliminating the colors blue and pink. No Barbie dolls. No toy trucks. There’s a small sect of assholes out there who don’t want anybody to have a dick or a vagina.

But when push comes to shove and a few of these fucking weirdos try to organize a day at school where all the kids dress up like gender neutral freaks, its nice to know normal people prevail and nobody fucking does. It doesn’t make you sexist or prejudice or homophobic or anything like that if you don’t wanna dress up like a chick for school. It just makes you a normal ass person who’s not starved for attention. Score one for the good guys when Gender Bender day is a complete failure.
