WATCH: Outrageous: Here’s What Happened To Student Who Told His Teacher There Are Only Two Genders

Amanda Prestigiacomo

A 17-year-old Scottish teen was kicked out of class and subsequently suspended for a stunning three weeks from his Aberdeenshire-area school after he had the audacity to push back on a teacher’s opinion on gender.

When the teacher allegedly told the class that a website was “old fashioned” for having only two gender options available, the teen spoke up to tell him that, biologically speaking, there are only two genders: male and female; anything else is a “personal” identification. That was enough to get the student booted from class. In a now-viral exchange, which was secretly taped by the student, the teacher rehashed the issue with the teen in a classroom alone, chastising the boy and telling him he needs to keep his opinions in his “own home.”
