*too young. (Second ‘to’ is correct.) Hoping you’re not in a job teaching basic curriculum. Kudos on your correct usage of the word “them.”

Rants like the above in all caps and improper grammar (TO instead of TOO, for example), will rarely be taken seriously no matter which side of the debate you sit on. Rational debate will earn respect, though.
But Nunya, that’s exactly what they’re doing. Calm yourself down. They’re following the law and keeping everything out.
Nunya if they didn’t understand, they wouldn’t be in school. To be honest most of them have already learned gender bias by the time they reach a classroom, teachers need to de-program them so that they can function in a modern society. Ignorance like yours should have died out with the dinosaur.
