    [fancypost bordercolor=transparent; width: 400px; text-align: justify]Funhouse wanted to have everyone know in detail about gender before someone said something stupid again. She didn't particularly enjoy going off on people, but to her, it was totally necessary. Smile spread across her maw, the femme glanced around, clearing her throat. "Hey! Gender class over here!" She said, taking a seat as she waited for people to gather.

    [fancypost borderwidth=0px; width: 350px; text-align: justify; font-family: georgia;]There were so many sex and gender classes going around that it now started to bug the druid. So much for having sweet and loving children in the clan, nope, that was just thrown out the window. The calico had nothing else better to do with her time so she just let out a light sigh and took a seat.[hr][hr]

They made him nervous. Nerves on Never were not a great thing to have. So the ivory lupine padded over, with a downcast and troubled look upon his facial features, fear glimmering in his glowing blue optics. "This isn't... this isn't mandatory.. is it?" He asked Funhouse, tail inbetween his back legs as he asked her. She didn't seem that nice at the moment. But then again, everything to him was scary as sh*t. Or maybe.. or maybe.

    Gender class. Animatedpup liked classes, since she learned quickly and was excited to do so, and she didn't exactly know about genders and stuff, except that she was a female. Yeah. That was about it. So, with a wide smile and large bounce, she took a seat before Funhouse. "Sound cool!" she exclaimed, a bit confused as to why some seemed annoyed, or uncomfortable.

    [fancypost bordercolor=transparent; width: 400px; text-align: justify]Fun's gaze landed on Never rather quizzically. "No, this isn't mandatory, but I'd like it if ya stayed! It won't be uncomfortable, prolly not!" She laughed. Not wanting to wanting to wait for others, she turned to the little group gathered before her. "Okay, kiddos! Let's get started." She rumbled. "So, you're going to be learning a lotta shit that you probably didn't know before. If you feel uncomfortable, feel free to leave. If you have questions, ask!" She began. There, that was... simple. A strange way to approach it, but she had no better idea.


    "Gender is a social construct brought about to further segregate different people." Funhouse said, nodding to affirm her words. "Gender is a spectrum -- there's so many genders out there!" She said, clearly excited by this topic. "What are some genders out there?" She asked, waiting for someone to respond.

    [fancypost bgcolor= transparent; bordercolor= transparent; borderwidth= 0px; font-family: arial black; font-style: italic; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: -13px; letter-spacing: 0px; text-align: right; color: darkmagenta;]info ❊ [abbr=easy physically / easy mentally / attack in darkmagenta / permission to injure, ask to capture, no kill]battle tags[/abbr] ❊ [abbr=all free powers (glows dark magenta & dark magenta fluids, 0/9 spirits, sees Sinister, character bond with Wickedpaw)]powers[/abbr][/fancypost][fancypost bgcolor= ; border: 0px solid ; overflow: auto; width: 400px; height: 200px; font-family: arial; color: lightcyan;][justify]
    Right off the bat, Animatedpup was confused. Being a girl or boy wasn't a social construct, she didn't think. Then again, she was young and inexperienced with the topic, so she didn't know anything. "Uh, do g- I mean, male and female count as genders, then?" she questioned confusedly, looking up at Funhouse. Quickly raking her mind for any other possible genders, she recalled speaking to Sinister, and he'd mentioned something called "agender". He immediately moved on to another topic after saying it, as usual, so she didn't know much about that. It did have 'gender' at the end, so it probably counted. "Agender?" she suggested cautiously, hoping she wasn't wrong.

"Boy... Girl..." He trailed off, nervously chewing at his lip as he studied Funhouse.

    there had been tons of classes lately - what was the occasion? was it like a honorary education week or something? had she missed the memo?


    padding up quietly, comebackkit would sit off, alone, to the side of the group as always. gender. last time she had checked there were only two genders - male and female - but now everyone was saying otherwise. was it really that diverse enough to have a class?


    suddenly she didn't understand the world.

    PARADISE
    in the night, the stormy night, away she'd fly


    Para would have liked to ask 'what's a social construct?' and 'what's segregate mean?' but she didn't want to interrupt what was going on, and so just wandered over and plopped her fluffy little butt on the ground. She knew that there was more to genders than just male and female- and, uh, yeah. She didn't know much else about genders, so this might be kinda helpful. Or incredibly confusing. She really didn't understand it. And so she remained silent, tilting her head to one side.

    [fancypost bgcolor=; border: none; width: 370px; padding: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 14px; text-align: justify; color: #ff3526; font-family: georgia; margin-bottom: 3px;]This was an extremely touchy subject for alot of members in Sunclan so the Tiger strayed off to the side deep crimsons training on the fem. He would watch her and make sure nothing was ill informed to the youth especially if one of his own children arrived but so far everything seemed like smooth sailing.[align=center][font=georgia][color=#39546b] [size=15pt]×[/size] [size=15pt]×[/size] [abbr=#father to; Sandy, Cobaltcub, Sixteencub and Capaneus #glowing candy red spit/tears/blood #oddly shaded blue/grey fur #candy red/pink eyes #based off kankri #the rant side of tumblr] [size=15pt]×[/size][/fancypost]

    [fancypost bordercolor=transparent; width: 400px; text-align: justify]Of course everything was smooth sailing. She knew exactly what she was doing. She flicked her ears, listening to all of the genders being thrown at her. It appeared that they didn't know too many, aside from the bare minimum "boy and girl". That was fine; she didn't expect everyone to know everything immediately.


    Funhouse turned to Lydia as she spoke, a smile flourishing on her maw. "Genderfluid is correct, however intersex is not." She began coolly. "Intersex is, as it sounds, a sex, while genderfluid is a gender." Which brought her to her next topic.


    "You all brought up a few genders -- male, female, genderfluid, and agender, however there are a lot more than that." Her first little task was just to see what everyone knew, so she knew where to start. "But before we continue, I should clarify a few things.


    "Sex and gender are two totally different things. Sex refers to biological things -- chromosomes, hormonal profiles, internal and external sexual organs, things of the like." That was a lot of science-y terms. Oh well. "Gender is what you are. Like, how you identify." That was much simpler!


    "Most people, if not everyone, are assigned genders when they are born based on their sex. So, AFAB (assigned female at birth) creatures are associated with having a certain set of genitalia, while AMAB (assigned male at birth) beings are associated with having a different set of genitalia." She took a breath, feeling a little dizzy as she realized her lungs were shrinking as they were being deprived of oxygen.


    "Does that make sense? Any questions?" She asked, realizing she was getting way ahead of herself, her thoughts disorganized and a mess.
