I mean if we are going to stick our heads up the ass of Political Correctness…………..
(Daily Mail)- In the nursery rhyme, the Gingerbread Man fled from the clutches of an old woman and her husband.
But now he has been cornered by an even more unforgiving foe – political correctness.
Council bureaucrats have stripped gingerbread men of their gender and renamed them gingerbread ‘persons’ on menus for 400 primary schools.
Parents in Lancashire were astonished when they discovered the change.
‘It is absolutely ridiculous,’ one mother said. ‘Someone has obviously taken the effort to change this and it is almost offensive.
‘I am all for anti-discrimination but this is a pudding. The gingerbread man is a character from a rhyme in a book, for goodness sake.’
Silly me, I never once thought about the sex of my cookies … Does this mean Girl Scout cookies will have to be renamed non-gender specific cookie snacks? Wait a minute, does “cookie” imply a sexual preference? I’m so confused.
Stupidity has no bounds.
I don’t know that facepalm is sufficient here…
