In this controversial incident at Chief Sealth International High School in Seattle, a 10th-grade student was marked incorrect on a quiz for asserting that only women can get pregnant and only men have penises. The teacher, in an Ethnic Studies World History class, insisted that women can have penises and men can get pregnant. The student's mother expressed frustration, highlighting concerns about teachers bringing political beliefs into the classroom and her son facing scrutiny for his skin color and so-called privilege. The school district defended the quiz as “inclusive,“ aligning with state and local guidelines. Despite the failing grade not impacting the student's overall grade, the incident raises questions about the influence of progressive ideologies in education and potential mistreatment of students holding different views. This case underscores a broader debate on gender identity and education, with the mother reaching out to media outlets that she believes will address the issue unbiasedly.
