Case: Am I a Boy or Girl?
We have student who is a girl. She dresses out in the girls locker and by every document she is classified as a female. Recently, she dropped the "f" bomb in class and I spoke with her about this behavior and how it is unacceptable and offensive. I told her that it sounds so trashy coming from a young lady's mouth. Her response to me was, "I am not a girl." A few days later, she turned in an excuse and where her mother had written "her" or "she", she crossed out and put "him" or "he". What are some suggestions on how to handle this? Because it is clear that her parents are unaware of this situation.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would speak to the school counselor about it. They will have more experience and training in dealing with sexuality and gender issues. However, it would be beneficial during any future behavior incidents to avoid gender biases. Such appropriate behavior is wrong for any student, regardless of gender. |

Comments: I agree gender bias is not the best route. It is best to stop the cussing and address the gender issues separately.

| Comments: A school counselor would definitely be a good person to discuss the matter with. I especially agree that the gender bias should be avoided. Saying that it's trashy for a young lady implies that a) you think she's trashy and b) it's okay for boys to say curse words and c) girls are held to higher standards than boys, which could cause her to desire (even more) to be a boy. Sticking to a simple "it's against the rules" would avoid all mention of gender specific expectations. Clearly, she is going through something on the fundamental level, and she could benefit from an objective third party's guidance. |
