Moonbattery: Legos introduce young boys to the joy of building things with their hands, and help them develop the skills this requires. Consequently a social engineer bans them:
A kindergarten teacher in Bainbridge Island, Washington, has banned boys from playing with Legos as part of the fight for gender equality.
The Bainbridge Island Review reports Captain Johnston Blakely Elementary School kindergarten teacher Karen Keller intentionally excludes boys from playing with Lego building blocks. Allegedly, this is in [an] attempt to help girls.
That is how liberals help people — by holding down other people. When they manage to impose utopia, it will be like the grass on a well-manicured golf course, each blade cut down to the height of the shortest.
Proof positive that your child is not getting an education in that school with imbeciles like Karen Keller imposing this idiocy on them. Time to pull your kid from this Progressive Penitentiary.
Might as well offend the grammar Nazis at the same time. The plural of Lego is Lego…there is no “s”.
Back in the 50’s I had Lincoln Logs

I’m confused is there some reason the girls weren’t playing with the Legos too?
A lot of upper middle-class families live on Bainbridge Island so evidently they can afford this bullshit.
I bet she makes the boys pee while sitting down too…
“At first, Keller tried enticing her girl students with pink and purple Legos.”
Every line she spouts is sexist stereotype. How dare she!
Typical lib, calls something one thing when they can use it to control others, ignores the same thing the rest of the time.
Weakening America any way possible!
Be sure to spend time deprograming
your kids at the end of every school
indoctrination day.
what needs to be banned is Karen Kelly’s dumb ass from anywhere near children….the sexist heterophobic gender Nazi
…fight fire with fire
This is just like that commercial a about a perky woman snack. Some guy is enjoying an enormous cookie and the woman is having hunger pangs. So her liberal snack shrinks that guy’s cookie so perky lady doesn’t feel so bad about her lot.
If you cannot make girls build stuff, which they don’t want to do anyway, you can deny it to the Boys who want it and who would benefit from it. That’s College Logic and far above my pay grade, obviously.
They were too busy playing with their Ho Barbies.
Here’s a LEGO commercial featuring *gasp* GIRLS!!!

I prefer Legii, but, whatever. lol
Nah, Legii are what surrounds your ears during that moment when you build the fort…
I’ve taught children before. It’s true that girls are better students but when it comes to making things it’s not even close. Throw some legos on the ground and the boys will make aircraft carriers with rotating helicopter pads or something. The girls make….a box. Week two, the boys make a city with escalated walkways and all kinds of stuff that blows your mind. The girls make..a box. So I almost know where she’s coming from with this. As long as the boys are engaged in some other project. I would need more context. Sadly, I doubt she is so conscientious when the project leads to the girls blowing the boys out. I have the strangest feeling that at that point, it’s all “GRRRRRLLLLL power.” Hopefully not.
Well, I just read the article and saw her ‘When hell freezes over’ quote. All I can say to Ms. Keller is ‘Enjoy your snow-cone, cunt.’
Nonsense. I raised three daughters and one soon. They all four built lots of stuff with Lego.
Col Trautman. You beat me to it.
Keller told the Bainbridge Island Review, “I always tell the boys, ‘you’re going to have a turn’– and I’m like, ‘Yeah, when hell freezes over’ in my head.” What a callous bitch. She should not be in the teaching profession— “The Oldest Profession” would suit the cunt.
Public Education is child abuse. You have been warned.
When we were youngsters growing up, our favorite toys were slingshots (homemade), Boy Scout Knives, Bows and arrows, either Robin Hood type or Sitting Bull style. On rainy days we played with our Meccano sets, swapping nuts and bolts, and parts.
Always hoping that our Dads would buy a motor so we could build a bulldozer, a crane, or a motorbike. Thank God we had no assholes like Karen Keller to interfere with us.
It’s not nonsense just because your daughters were different than what I witnessed in the hundreds.
I home schooled my kids and now they attend college online.
They don’t want anything to do with all this BS. Thank goodness.
I had an Erector set… the steel kind, not the wimpy-ass colored plastic they use today.
The root of this particular cruelty.
She’s got a case of man hate.
That has to stop being around the boys.
