Princeton to be renamed Minceton – course will teach students to ‘read queerly’

Read queerly? Is that when they rest the book on their boyfriend’s back? Maybe I should read the post?

Campus Reform-

Princeton University is offering a new course this fall that will teach students about the “theory, narrative, and aesthetics” of “queer literatures.”

According to the official course description posted on the school’s website, students will “both read from various trajectories of queer literature and engage what it means to read queerly” as part of the “Queer Literatures: Theory, Narrative, and Aesthetics” course.

“Being mean to boys is fun and a second-wave feminist duty.”

“We will consider the historical etymology of the term queer and think through its affiliate terms and acronyms: lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans,” the description continues. “We will investigate how discourses of power and institutions of normativity have come up against queer bodies, narratives, and politic—and how such encounters are historically situated.”

The university goes on to explain that the throughout the course, students will be urged to “pay close attention to the ways in which desire, gender, and sexuality are queerly told.”

  1. The Soviets knew what they were doing in the 30’s. Take over the universities and colleges.
    Until we tar and feather these so called administrators and professors will we be a GREAT NATION again.

  2. How does this get us to the moon? It teaches that if you pretend really hard, and get a bunch of noisy people on your side, you can claim you are already on the moon and make everyone else go along with your claim.

  3. All federal funding to any state universities that engage in this should cease immediately.

    BTW, this is queer pride month so my employer is pelting me with “unconscious bias” training and “micro-inequities” along with daily updates about This Day In Gay History.

    It’s like Bob Hope’s joke about California. “I’ve just flown in from California, where they’ve made homosexuality legal. I thought I’d better get out before they make it compulsory.”

    Well, we’re at compulsory at the national level.

  4. How in the hell do you read queerly? The word queer used to mean odd or strange or perverse (they got that definition right), now it’s a meaningless word euphemistically used to describe homosexuals almost as being normal because of their perverted lifestyle. So if I read queerly it’s because the screwel system has failed to teach me how to read and write in a normal old fashioned manner because it doesn’t agree with their perverted worldview which has is totally relative and has no absolutes. Don’t you just love existentialism and nihilism, making everything meaningless so as to confuse people to not be able to think properly. Their ultimate goal is to totally eliminate any free thinking individual or group who doesn’t go along with their perverse agenda, now that’s what I call queer thinking. The real queers now are those who don’t go with the flow and refuse to conform to the sick groupthink of our sick society. I guess believing in God makes me queer since it makes me an oddball or nonconformist according to their standards. I hate the left and their wanton destruction of everything especially the language so that no one knows anything unless it’s approved by them. Up is down, right is wrong etc. etc. We’re going down the rabbit hole real fast to the tune of White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane and most people don’t even know it.
