BBC Educational Film Tells Nine Year Olds There Are Over 100 Gender Identities

A BBC program aimed at nine- to 12-year-olds claims that there are ‘over 100 gender identities’.

Entitled, ‘Identity – Understanding Sexual and Gender Identities’, the film is being offered on the BBC website as part of its relationships and sex education package.

The film also tells children that becoming transgender is a way to be ‘happy’

The Mail Online reports: It comes despite Government guidance published last year which advised schools to exercise caution when teaching children about gender issues.

The programme, which features children asking adults about sexuality and gender on behalf of their peers, suggests the different identities include ‘bi-gender’, ‘gender-queer’ and ‘pansexual’.

The film also tells children that becoming transgender is a way to be ‘happy’ while making no mention of the growing legal and medical concerns about the rising number of children saying they want to change gender.

A majority of school-age children are currently being forced to resort to online learning because the lockdown has shut access to the classrooms for all but key workers.

Last night, the BBC said teachers were ‘strongly advised’ to watch the film before viewing it with their pupils.

One section of the film includes a pupil asking: ‘How many gender identities are there?’ It is answered by ‘Kate’, described as an RSE [Relationships and Sex Education] teacher, who tells two children: ‘There are so many gender identities. So we know we have got male and female, but there are over 100 if not more gender identities now.

‘Some people might feel that they are two different genders, people might think they are bi-gender. You have got some people who might call themselves ‘gender-queer’ – just like, I don’t want to be anything in particular, I just want to be me.’

Another speaker is Leo, a health worker who describes himself as a trans man, who tells the children: ‘I told people it wasn’t because I wanted to be trangender but because I wanted to be happy and to be happy I had to be true to who I was. Nobody really treats me differently but I feel that the pieces in my life fit better now.’

The film makes no mention of the medical interventions that some transgender children undergo, such as the untested hormone-blocking drugs whose use has effectively been banned by a recent High Court ruling.

The NHS Tavistock Centre treating children for gender issues was last week branded ‘inadequate’ by a watchdog, which found staff did not keep basic records on the treatment of vulnerable children given hormone treatments.

The film also shows an adult called ‘Rachel’ telling the children: ‘Some people might be born and feel they are the wrong gender. They might be born a girl and feel like they are a boy.’

The Department for Education last year told schools to take care when teaching children about gender issues.

‘Resources used in teaching about this topic must always be age-appropriate and evidence-based,’ it said, while teachers must ‘not reinforce harmful stereotypes, for instance by suggesting that children might be a different gender based on their personality’. 

The BBC said last night that more than 50 teachers participated in consultation exercises which helped to inform the series, and that it was ‘clearly stated’ on the BBC Teach website that ‘due to the sensitive nature of the subject matter, we strongly advise teacher viewing before watching with pupils’.

  1. These twisted Satanists need to be kept away from all children. Truly vile people filled with hate and lies.

  2. None of this based on science or reality, just “feelings”. Trannyism is a mental disorder, proven by decades of actual science. Sickening.

  3. English is the Master Tongue The global means of communication .Thats why the BBC is heralded as the global teacher instructing the children on the Correct Ideology and saving them from falling I to error or heresy. By non compliance to the Group Leader ,and Authority . Naturally they’re Infallible .

  4. Many of the heathen gods the elite worship are androgynous such as the greek god Hermes and his son Hermaphrodite. They are trying to take us back to the days of old time satanism

    • Its the chemical wedding – Hermes and Aphrodite = hermaphrodite – two genders in one body, this is what they worship.

  5. By only saying, “There Are Over 100 Gender Identities”; the BBC is being transphobic for not specifically referencing the exact number of the Gender Identities.

    The BBC demonstrates their obvious sexist prejudices and should be fined by the government. Oh wait. The BBC IS the government. So the government should fine itself by increasing taxes on the Middle class.

  6. They got us to believe the ozone depletion and change all our freon gases., they got most idiots believing CO2 is a huge problem, they got us believing that some dude in a cave knocked down the towers, they got us to believe that Biden won the election fair and square, or at least accept the cheating. they will get us to do this too. Not me. I will most likely be decaptited before I call a boy a girl.

    • Your right, actually greenhouse gases are lower now than at most times throughout history. The polar icecamps have melted and refrozen many times throughout the planets history. The ices will ebb and flow, heck even the great lakes and the grand canyon were formed by glaciers. The entire planet except for the equator has geen covered in ice in the past.

  7. The more they can get people to believe imaginary things are facts, the easier it is for politicians to get away with their lies and to push policies and make laws based on fantasies and imagination. In order to do this, they need to start working on the minds while they are still young. Basically, the people pushing these lies should be brought up on child abuse charges.
