Seattle parents are mobilizing after uncovering a surprising class listing in the Seattle Parks & Recreation fall class schedule.
Called “Sonsational: Mad Science,” the event is designed for parents and their children to attend together. The one-time event is billed as a weekend activity including chemistry and engineering activities. It sounds like a blast, but there’s a catch — this class is reserved for boys only.
Parents who emailed Seattle Parks & Recreation say they were told that the event was created to offer an option for boys that was similar to what was being offered to girls. The girls’ event is described on the organization’s website as a “daddy-daughter dinner.”
“I’m sorry but a girl fancy dinner (even if the theme is science) and a boy science afternoon are not equal events,” says upset parent Julia Stack. “Maybe it’s time to do away with the exclusive dad/daughter event. Boys and moms are apparently not allowed to sign up for that event. How can that be ok? What about non-traditional families?”
Stack isn’t the only parent who isn’t having it. Parents flocked to social media to share their concerns about the event.
“With the history of women and girls being excluded from the sciences, I find this class inappropriate,” one upset mom shared in a post on Facebook. “However well-intentioned, the gender segregation cannot help but reinforce dangerous message that science is for boys and not girls.”
It isn’t just about excluding daughters from one event, either. When it comes down to it boys get plenty of support in the sciences. If any group needs extra encouragement in this area, it’s girls — especially girls of color.

Is there anything libs can’t screw up?
@Obamaplease ~ absolutely not! … libtard could fuck up a soup sammich
I thought all the girls were now busy camping with the Boy Scouts!
I live in a town that is half Mormon. In the spring the local college has a “women’s fair”. All the workshops, displays, etc. are about being a homemaker, bride, nutrition and food preparation expert, etc. A feminists nightmare for sure!
Holy Jesus H. Fucking Christ, EVERYONE should be included in EVERYTHING.
There should be no one on one with son and dad or one on one with daughter and father.
PHUCK the liberal ideology that wants to maintain TOTAL control over EVERYONE’S life, It’s only a matter of time before the phucking liberals will tell you when you can or cannot piss.
If you have any questions about my feeling against the phucking liberals….just ask me!
I find it hard to believe those women haven’t killed the little rapists, before the bodies get to big to geed to the cats.
If any group needs extra encouragement in this area, it’s girls — especially girls of color. Girls of “color’ probably need more education in “biology” considering the illegitimate birth rate……
LOTS of liberal groups are exclusive, and they have no problem using public areas and public money.
Be prepared for the fight and make them “touch the hot oven” and perhaps they will be less likely to do it next time.
I’m frequently annoyed at the hue and cry about how girls are so wronged by their lack of “representation” in STEM classes and activities. WTF is stopping them? If they want to be in them, effing join them, stick with the classes and get a STEM-related career. No one is stopping you, bitches. Maybe when you get your pathetic numbers up, boys won’t be inclined to use STEM camps as opportunities for boys to have outings that for fucking once in their lives they can call their own.
Freaking feminists, man. Hypocrites (boys can’t join Girl Scouts), invaders (rushing the freaking gates to get girls in Boy Scouts) and lazy as shit with no imagination (Boys do cooler activities? You want to camp and tie knots, start campfires and etc. etc. that boys do? Then EFFING DO IT in your own troops. Bunch of losers who can’t create a damn thing of their own, only destroy.
This is hil-lar-i-ous! I can’t help but think some jokester at Parks and Rec was just punking the feminazis, and is laughing his ass off right about now.
Sorry, but all the girls are in Making a Sammitch seminar.
Lucky they didn’t say whites, eh? Bwhahahahahaha!
You want to have a girls and science seminar?
Then start your fuckin’ own, bitches!
Kids who are STEM candidates don’t get it from an afternoon shindig with their dads. The whole thing is probably B.S. Eliminate all the crap. Quit spending tax money.
Teach the kids, all nine sexes, how to walk safely through the parks without getting stuck with a hypodermic needle.
