    Is this actually happening or do you know of it happening. Have you heard the principal say this to students?

    Yes i know it for a fact

    I'd be more worried about someone using the term 'feminine boys' than I would someone encouraging kids take part in sports

    Maybe they just prefer rugby instead of some sissy sport like football?

    Perhaps he's gay and likes bears.

    Report him to your nearest sociologist for stereotyping and enforcing outdated gender norms.

    Man up OP!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    What did he say exactly?

    Does this mean we can set up a sting operation of trying to entrap the principal into saying the words only for a series of increasingly hilarious and gross-out events to occur?

    Is there a point to this thread? I would hardly call the principle homophobic.

    Its highly femboyophobic to assume all feminine boys are homosexual. Who can I report the OP to?

    I strongly suggest you go to a doctor to get your testicles checked.

    As long as it's a woman checking. He's a real man, couldn't be having a male doctor checking his testicles!

    Has he cancelled the anti-bullying workshop yet?

    If you heard him saying it, I presume you're a teacher, a pupil or a parent. If you're a teacher or parent, talk to him about the possibility of using more appropriate language. If you're a pupil, talk to your parents.

    It's not the most suitable language but it's hardly homophobic although certainly highly inappropriate. Children should not be spoken to in that manner.

    Would you be more or less offended if he told "feminine boys" to go to a knitting class instead or football?

    So he's sending the guy lads into changing rooms full of naked boys? Very thoughtful of him.

    Glazers Out!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,126 ✭✭✭Reoil


    Report him for what? There's nothing homophobic about it at all.
    It's the same as telling somebody with depression to "man up" and get on with life.
    Not right, but not something to be reported to anybody.

    Talk to him yourself. Tell him what he's doing is wrong and tell him why. If you know yourself...

    Since when does effeminate mean gay? If it doesn't then how is this homophobic?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,624 ✭✭✭Little CuChulainn


    Tell him that the current politically correct term is "Hardent he F**k up"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,043 ✭✭✭Wabbit Ears


    OP's indignation shows more about her own predjudices than the principals.

    Principal says 'man up and play football' to a child. OP labels the child as effeminate and probably gay so decides the headmaster is inappropriately speaking to the child.

    OP is projecting.

    Obivously a female doctor. A male doctor would just be weird.

    Hmm, maybe you're just homophobic-phobic?

    It's only homophobic if they're gay, these femboys you speak of and he tells them to man up and stop being so GAYYYY!!!

    everyone else is on the money but I'm guessing you're a teacher there who's gay and pushing this issue to suit your agenda as you cannot let him know of your own shall we say sexual persuasion. that or a parent of a "femine boy" yourself with little to do and all day to do it!!

    an axe to grind me thinks, so many variables eh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,476 ✭✭✭ardmacha


    Easy solution, report him to Donal óg Cusack, who will surely tell him to stop promoting football and to tell him to do hurling instead.

    The word homophobic is thrown around a lot lately, pc brigade out in squadrons as usual.

    What reason could anyone have to object to a workshop about homophobic bullying?
