When teaching small children in a classroom setting, it’s important to always refer to little boys as little girls if that is, in fact, their preference. Likewise, one should always refer to little girls as little boys, if that better aligns with the child’s “gender identity.”
Actually, scratch all that - perhaps you just shouldn’t use the terms “boys” or “girls” at all, in deference to those children who might not identify as either, or who think they’re somewhere in between.
At least that’s according to one Illinois public school teacher, who goes by “Nathan Lyon He/Him” and posts “advice” to other educators over on social media on how to avoid stepping on little kids’ preferred pronouns and self-expression. In a video posted to TikTok, Lyon advises “assessing your language” when it comes to teachers referring to their class - all while sporting a rainbow-spangled “Support LGBTQ+” t-shirt, of course.
“Are you lining up your students into ‘boy’ and ‘girl’ lines? Remember, when you do that, if a kid doesn’t particularly identify strongly with either of those, it makes them have to kinda choose something that isn’t true to them,” explains Lyon, who reportedly teaches for Glencoe School District 35.

Instead of using gender to separate students, Lyon suggests teachers “find other ways to line up and group your kids” such as by student number or birthdays, and to “get creative and have fun with it!”
Elementary teacher at Glencoe District 35 in IL says not to line up students by boys and girls because some students might not identify with either.

Got that? It’s no longer enough to recognize boys who believe themselves girls, or vice verse. Now, we must reorganize societal norms to leave room for those who don’t identify as either.
Or, on the other hand, we could simply go back to calling boys “boys” and girls “girls,” and anyone who can’t grasp the basic concept of biology, including both its irrefutability and its binary nature, can shove it.
Including Nathan Lyon He/Him with Glencoe District 35.
