Women and Gender Studies, 6/13/07

[getupanddoit]

"People, people, students, kids, and furry wild things that are also students!" Maddie clapped her hands. "Settle down, settle in, lets get this boat on the tarmac, here!"

Yes, she did this whether or not the students were making any noise. Or if they were even there. She possibly did this in her spare time at home.

"Okay, now." She resettled her glasses on her nose. "We're going to be working on something very important, today. Something that will really help your understanding of who you are as a person and how gender roles affect your day to day lives. Isn't that right, Syvvie?"

"I think you just want to play dress up. . . ."

"Oh, hush, you." Maddie grinned. "Right. So. These last few weeks, you've talked about how your feel about your gender, about what society expects of each of the genders, and last week, about how you might be different if you were a different gender. Well! This week, we're going to find out!"

"Sort of."

"Yes, sort of, we're not going to turn you all into boys and girls from being girls and boys, we can't do that. But! We do want you to try out some of the gender roles of the opposite sex, right? We have clothes here, and everything! So! Come on, then! Get dressed up! There's plenty of room to change, and I promise, all the clothing is freshly cleaned." She gestured to some rows of changing screens and racks of clothing. A lot of it seemed to be from the fifties and sixties . . . there were some seventies leisure suits in there, even, and yes, some modern clothing as well. "Girls, try out being a boy. Boys? Let's see how it is to be a girl. Undergarment changes are entirely optional, but if you want the full experience . . . stuff 'em."

"And have fun."

"That's right, that's right, how could I forget, that's a rule! Have fun with this, boys and girls and animals. We have wigs and hats, even! Who doesn't like wigs, I mean, really? Oh! Oh! And before I forget! We have an assignment for you, this week! I know, I know, homework, it stinks, it really does, but this is fun homework! I want you all to pick a day this week and spend that day pretending to be the opposite gender. Try to be social while you're at it, see how people react. It's a learning experience. Get to see how all those transvestitutes do it, and all the things they have to put up with. Okay! Chop chop! Let's go!"

[ooc: OCD coming is up. Clothing available on the racks is completely moddable.]

Interdisciplinary Studies or whatever, Class 5, Wednesday, Period 5

[whatever-sucks.livejournal.com]

Last week's class was in the Danger Room, which was set up to LOOK like the camp gym. This week's class was actually in the camp gym. This may cause some confusion.

But if it causes anyone to be late, Squall will be angry.

Since he'd been there for a while, Squall was passing the time by shooting jump shots from half court. He made more of them than he missed. And there was a big blue net bag full of more basketballs leaning against the bleachers.
( Guess what today's lesson is about? )

How to Annoy Your Teachers (And Not Get Turned Into Animals) [Week 5, Period 2]

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John's got a smile on his face when the students file in for his class this morning. Then again, when doesn't have a smile on his face for his class.

"Before I get started, I have to say whoever went to Professor Aly and got her so up in arms about her future child is my personal hero," John said. "She was quite agitated about it when I saw her the other day. So, brava and bravo. A job well done."

( John loves this class, can you tell? )

"And that's all for today. Let's get to it."

[OOC: Today's homework assignment has been approved by Hades. Thank you kindly to our illustrious vice principal. As always, tell the teachers John sent you and you won't get in trouble. Teachers, John is open to being yelled at, confronted or chase the appropriate thread. Have fun!]

Construction Site [Wednesday]

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

As the students approached the construction site today, they might notice a different hard hat on Fraser's head. Seems he didn't want to miss the customized hard hat invasion that he'd heard about.

"Good morning," he greeted. "Welcome to another day. Please equip yourselves with the provided safety equipment and get right to work. If you happen to see a rather large hipped man in red pajamas, please let me know immediately so I can arrest him."

Fraser wouldn't really arrest him.

"With that, please be safe and come find me should you have any questions."

[OOC: The ogling thread is here as I am dumb and forgot it.]

Ninja-ing - Wednesday 1st period - Week 5

[konoha-flash.livejournal.com]

“Good morning everyone,” Yondaime nodded his hair looking a bit on the... odd side. “There’s not a lot going on today. So we’re going to continue on working with the weaponry that I introduced you to last week. I want you to work in pairs and try out each kind of weapon and figure out which one you like the best. There are targets placed all around the area and some are hidden. These are real, weapons so again please be very careful. No poking people.”

[[ooc: Please wait for the OCD is up!]]
