Just when you thought political correctness could not go any further....

In an effort to make classrooms more gender-inclusive, teachers at a middle school in Lincoln, Nebraska were given teaching guidelines advising them not to use "gendered expressions" by calling students "boys and girls."
The Lincoln Journal Star reports that the teachers have been advised to use more gender-neutral expressions like campers, readers, athletes or even purple penguins. [hahhah-no]

The aim of Newspeak is to remove all shades of meaning (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meaning_(linguistic)) from language, leaving simple concepts (pleasure and pain, happiness and sadness, goodthink and crimethink) that reinforce the total dominance of the State (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totalitarianism). Newspeak root words serve as both nouns and verbs, further reducing the total number of words; for example, "think" is both a noun and verb, so the word thought is not required and can be abolished. The party also intends that Newspeak be spoken in staccato (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staccato) rhythms with syllables that are easy to pronounce. This will make speech more automatic and unconscious and reduce the likelihood of thought.

This is worse than the feminazi terms spokesperson, chairperson, ect...

Not saying boys and girls will confuse 99% of the children as opposed to offending the 1% that may not know to look down a see what equipment they possess.

I would just call my students "ass monkeys" because that isn't gender specific.

I thought this was pretty PC. Gotta keep the Native American/Indians happy i guess. I think we should get rid of all holidays as they can all be traced back to tradition and culture and dammit I'm not part most of them so fuck everyone and we should just work 365 days a year to earn our paycheck nothing more. NO SOUP FOR YOU.....NEXT!
