we were just handed a series of, well, handouts that are intended to aid us in vocabulary and broad content instruction.
my joy overflows.
anyway, one of them is titled, "A B C Brainstorm." this particular gem asks students to place a topic in a box at the top of the paper and then has all 26 letters of the alphabet organized in columns with a short line following. students are expected to come up with a statement for each letter of the alphabet for whatever topic they have been assigned, say...bitches and/or hos.
a sample:
A- all bitches are hos
B- but not all hos are bitches
C- cunts are often, but not necessarily hos and/or bitches
D- despite often being female, neither hos nor bitches must be. it is equally possible for a man to be a "bitch." although, the attendant misogyny of this construct, as it does require a concept of stereotypical and female "bitchiness," might render the argument that "bitch" can apply fully, and independent of that female referent, to a man laughable at best. this situation is, in essence, making the male female, bitch by proxy.
okay, you get the point. i might have taken it a bit further than necessary at the end there.
peace, bitches.
