"In Vancouver, British Columbia, a new school policy might be considered political correctness on steroids.

The city school district has adopted a new policy that replaces the traditional pronouns he, she, him and her with xe (zee) xem (zem) and xyr (zer).

The Vancouver Board of Education has approved the radical policy aimed at accommodating perceived gender identity and sexual orientation...

CNS News wrote about the pronoun changes, and other changes to accomodate transgender students, in a July story that reported "two-spirit" students are also being included in the new accomodations.

What are "two-spirit" people? "Two spirit is an Aboriginal term which means having both feminine and masculine spirits," the story stated...

The policy has sparked a lot of controversy, especially among parents who accused school authorities of pushing their own social agenda without consulting parents.

The CNS News story also quoted the school board chairman: "I didn’t realize how much opposition there was out there in our communities to keeping kids safe and included and welcome," she said."
