Steve Bowler tweeted a photo of an assignment that his 8-year-old daughter’s teacher said she did incorrectly. The homework assignment had a list of toys or activities, and the kids were supposed to categorize them based on whether they were for boys, girls, or both, with equal numbers in each box. The assignment takes for granted the gendering of toys, and that there is a “correct” answer to the question of which gender they are appropriate for.
Bowler’s daughter did the assignment differently. After placing 3 items in the “boys” category and 2 in the “girls” group, she made additional boxes to add more things in the “both” column.
But at the bottom, the teacher notes that the assignment wasn’t done correctly. The point of the assignment is to categorize; the implicit message — that boys and girls are different types of people who like different types of things — isn’t questioned. A child sees this list of items and doesn’t gender them in the way the lesson took for granted; the reaction wasn’t to acknowledge her innovation and perhaps question the gendering, it was simply to say she did it wrong.
Bowler, for the record, said he was proud his daughter failed the assignment and just wished she’d done even worse on it.
[some gender-related bullshit removed.]
I’d be at the school having a giant argument with the teacher.
This is the most ridiculous assignment. I would be so confused by it because I definitely had Matchbox cars, LEGOs, AND Erector sets as a child.

Well, didn’t get that job either. They thought I was suited to doing a PhD, except I can’t get a PhD, can I?!
Israeli Bombing Cuts Off Palestinian From CNN Interview
Sporadic bombing can be heard all throughout the interview from the Palestinian side, at times from extremely close range. Mohammed Rabah Suliman allows the bombs to speak for themselves: “You can hear everything, I’m not going to comment on anything that is going on outside.” He is finally cut off by an explosion right next to him, almost knocking him off the chair. No bombing is heard from the side of his Israeli counterpart.
3 Israelis have so far been killed in the latest round of violence, while ten times more Palestinians have been killed, 8 of whom were babies and children.
