Summary

The Canadian educational system has issued a tongue-in-cheek guide for teachers on how to discuss the term "queef" without using the word itself, in light of the controversial "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida.

Abstract

In response to the "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida, Canadian educators have been provided with a humorous and satirical guide to address the term "queef" in a classroom setting. The guide, which is presented as an information hand-out, offers alternative phrases for teachers to use when discussing the topic with students of different age groups. For younger students in Kindergarten through Grade 3, euphemistic terms like "Pussy farts" and "Sneezing Unicorn" are suggested, while older students are encouraged to engage with more creative and humorous alternatives such as "Vart" and "Flappuccino." The document emphasizes the importance of being able to discuss the subject without the fear of parental intervention and encourages teachers to use the provided terms to facilitate open and comfortable conversations with their students.

Opinions

  • The guide is a satirical take on the "Don't Say Gay" bill, implying that the Canadian approach to education is more open and inclusive.
  • The use of humor and euphemisms is seen as a way to navigate around sensitive topics in the classroom while maintaining an educational and age-appropriate dialogue.
  • There is an underlying critique of the heightened sensitivity and censorship surrounding certain topics in education, as exemplified by the Florida bill.
  • The guide suggests that educators should be able to discuss bodily functions and related terminology in a way that is both informative and acceptable within the educational context.
  • The inclusion of a fun activity, such as creating a word search

“Don’t Say Queef” Bill Explained

Canadian educators’ information hand-out

Dear Educators,

In Canada, we may be cold, but we’re not heartless. We understand that use of the word gay is as innocuous as using the word cunt.

But, with the heightened sensitivity of Florida’s Don’t Say Gay bill in the news, we thought we’d provide clarification on our competing Don’t Say Queef edict.

Because it is hard for teachers to work around the word queef in the classroom, we’re offering educators a handy reference guide to alternative words.

For teachers in Kindergarten through Grade 3, we suggest the following:

  1. Pussy farts (because a pussy is a cat and farts are always acceptable)
  2. Sneezing Unicorn (mythical and appropriate)
  3. Milk Bubble (we discourage chocolate milk bubbles but strawberry milk bubbles are a bonus)
  4. Kitty cough

Everyone beyond Grade 3 can handle all but the word, queef, itself. Our suggestions include, but are not limited to:

  1. Vart
  2. Fanny fart (in tribute to our friends across the pond)
  3. Whistling Skinflaps
  4. Whoopy Cushion
  5. Flappuccino (Add: With extra whip? to get a laugh)
  6. Coot Poot
  7. Clam Belch
  8. Gap Geyser
  9. Coochie Cough
  10. Blumpff (This is an excellent spelling word as well)

With this age group, a fun activity is having the kids develop a word search with the phrases they know that mean queef. Be creative!

We hope this information brochure will allow you to comfortably talk about queefs to your students without fear of parental intervention.

Next week’s learning brochure will be How to Talk to Students About Pegging.

Happy teaching!
