Perversity and Diversity at My Little University

By the inimitable Mike Adams

Most people don’t know it, but there is a war currently being waged within the UNC system. The administrations of each of the sixteen campuses are trying to outdo one another when it comes to funding unmitigated idiocy and perversion in the name of “diversity.” Recently, UNC-Asheville showed a porn movie to 200 students in order to take the lead. That has administrators at UNC-Wilmington fighting mad and fighting back.

In an effort to take the lead in this race (and become the most idiotic university in North Carolina), UNCW is helping to sponsor a showing of the film “Trans Generation.” In fact, the Office of Campus Diversity, the Office of the Dean of Students, and the UNCW Women’s Resource Center are all pitching in to help.

For those who don’t know, “Trans Generation” is an eight-part documentary series that charts the lives of four college students undergoing “gender transition.” It is produced by the same people who brought us the classics “Inside Deep Throat” and “Party Monster.” According to the flier, the film features “Gabbie, Lucas, Raci, and T.J.” who are “confronting the challenges of school, campus life, family… and changing their sex.” The film joins the four transitioning youths – two soon-to-be-ex-males and two soon-to-be-ex-females - as they “define who they are and take control of their gender identity.”

Although I don’t know whether to wear a dress or a suit, you can bet that I will be there on Wednesday, September 14th, at 7:30 p.m. in UNCW’s Cameron Hall Auditorium to experience this monumental event. Since it is free and open to the public, I plan to bring a lot of friends and ask a lot of questions. Some of them follow:

1. I noticed that the Women’s Resource Center is co-sponsoring this program. Is that because they are pleased that two of the students in the film wanted to have surgery in order to become women?

2. Is the Women’s Resource Center offended by the two women who wanted to become men? Will the two new men get their new hoo-hoo dillies from the two new women? How does that work, exactly?

3. When a woman has a hoo-hoo dilly surgically attached, does that not legitimize Freud’s sexist notion of penis envy? Is that something the Women’s Center really wants to touch - figuratively speaking?

4. Is it misogyny that causes a woman to have a sex-change?

5. Is it mister-ogyny that causes a man to have a sex change?

6. In the past, UNC has spent tax-dollars to address the problem of teen self-mutilation. Why is the system now spending tax dollars to encourage self-mutilation in the form of sex-changes? Are we, a) having trouble making up our minds or do we, b) enjoy going in complete circles at tax-payer expense?

7. Most people think of someone who wants to surgically remove his or her sex organs as mentally ill. How did the diversity movement arrive at the conclusion that this is not a sign of mental illness? And how did it become a cause for celebration as we “celebrate sexual diversity” with taxpayer-funded events?

8. The last time I saw a trans-gendered person at a UNCW diversity event, she (formerly he) said (when she was a he) that he was advised by his psychiatrist to move to a cabin in the mountains. The reason was that he (now a she) was so violent and dangerous that he (now she) might hurt someone. But when he became a she by cutting off his hoo-hoo dilly, she became less angry. Does the university support hoo-hoo dilly removal as a form of anger management?

9. Have you ever considered putting a fence around UNCW and hanging up a sign that says “Welcome to the North Carolina State Zoo?”

10. If your answer to number 9 was “yes,” I know some capitalists that could help you out. Together we could sell tickets and erase some of this wasteful government spending.




A HISTORIC END IN SIGHT FOR COMPULSORY UNIONISM IN AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITIES

Unbelievable as it may sound, Australian university students have for decades been forced to join a union!

The Opposition education spokeswoman, Jenny Macklin, has defended Labor's position on voluntary student unionism, saying colleagues had been properly briefed every step of the way. Labor leader Kim Beazley recently abandoned his party's long-standing commitment to compulsory student union membership in a bid to safeguard a variety of welfare and support services on campuses. Under laws introduced into Parliament in March by the Education Minister, Brendan Nelson, university students will no longer have to join student unions and pay compulsory union fees. The changes would mean the introduction of user pays to subsidised services such as childcare, health care, food, entertainment, sporting clubs, accommodation advice, counselling and student support services.

Labor deliberately split the issues of student unionism and services in a bid to lure dissenting coalition members to vote for its amendment, which allows the collection of an amenities fee to run existing student support services. Ms Macklin today said the decision to commit the policy to the next election and beyond had been a difficult but pragmatic solution to try to secure the long term interests of students. "It's a solution we're putting forward to a very, very extreme piece of legislation," Ms Macklin told ABC television. What the Howard Government wants to do is get rid of the amenities fee, which will see the end of all of those services. We want to make sure that those services continue and that's what the amendment's about."

Ms Macklin, who was booed by some protesters at VSU rallies last week, said she thought most students understood Labor's position. "I do think that most students on our university campuses do understand why Labor is putting forward this solution," she said. "They know that if the Howard Government legislation gets through unamended, student services on our university campuses will just be decimated. There won't be the sporting facilities, there won't be the subsidised childcare, counselling services, the advocacy services, the drama facilities - all the things that students depend on at university."

But some in the Opposition are thought to be critical of the policy shift, due the unnecessarily alienation of students who would normally be expected to vote Labor. There is also confusion over whether shadow cabinet and caucus members were made aware the position on compulsory student union membership would become policy rather than a one-off tactical move.

But Ms Macklin today rejected that assertion. "What we did was take the amendment to both the shadow ministry and the caucus, it was very clear what the amendment was about," she said. This view was backed by Opposition finance spokesman Lindsay Tanner, who said he did not recall any serious dissent at the time the position was adopted. "We're happy to compromise on those matters, we're happy to ensure that there is a workable alternative here," Mr Tanner told the Ten Network.

With the Government now having the numbers in the Senate, Labor must gain the support of at least two coalition senators to see its amendment adopted. Liberal Senators Alan Eggleston and Russell Trood, in addition to Nationals Senators Barnaby Joyce and Fiona Nash, have said publicly they hold concerns over the legislation in its current form. But Dr Nelson has so far refused to budge from his position to force VSU on all Australian university campuses.
