I think the point is to help kids see that these stereotypes of masculine and feminine behaviour are not always helpful.
When are stereotypes of masculine and feminine behaviour *ever* helpful? I think the answer is never. Why would stereotyping men as "taking charge" and women as "taking part" ever. ever. be helpful or appropriate in a school?
Also for context to my tweets, please note that I am missing the context of your tweets because there is another person in this conversation who is replying to you but has blocked me.
And I think your point about fgm being in the context of other surgery/alterations is unfair because it's there, boxed, *as a contrast*. Personally, I'd bold/italic 'illegal' and 'non-consent' too.
Why would it be OK to cover a real serious issue that effects women and girls, including some that are in UK classrooms as just a single sentence, to offer a contrast to something else?
For context there are *25 pages on porn* - - variations all spelt out in detail. But one throwaway sentence on FGM which doesn't even bother to spell out what F. G. M. stands for
