Embarrassing: Top Michigan School Official Can’t Answer How Many Genders There Are

A top Michigan school official apparently struggles with biological science.

At a Michigan State Board of Education meeting last week, Michigan State Superintendent Sue Carnell was asked directly, “How many genders are there?”

That question was too tricky for her, and she froze in confused silence.  While it is likely she knew the scientific answer, that reality would not be welcomed by the woke crowd, so instead, after sitting in silence with a smirk, she finally said, “Different people have different beliefs on them.”

Her questioner shot back, “You can believe all you want, but science says there’s two.”

LibsofTikTok shared the video and noted, “She draws a complete blank then refuses to answer when asked this simple question. This is the person responsible for Michigan kids’ education. Crazy as hell.”

Watch:

Despite vocal opposition from parents, the Michigan State Board of Education just approved a new sex-ed curriculum for K-12. The new curriculum introduced radical gender ideology and teaches that kids can be born in the wrong body.

AP reports:

The standards outline what knowledge students should have by the time they complete a certain grade.

For example, under sex education standards, by the end of grade 8, students should be able to “define gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation, and explain that they are distinct components of every individual’s identity.”

State education officials say parents still have the option to opt their children out of sex education with no penalty, and MDE added language about what state law says about health and sex education, local control of schools and parent choice in the revised standard proposal discussed Thursday.
