RUSH: I have another example of the left’s public descent into madness and insanity. This is a story at the New American website. The headline: “Killing Virtue: School Pressured Into Removing Quote Encouraging Girls to Be Ladies.” Now, “the quote was found at Gregory-Lincoln Middle School in Houston Independent School District. Students in kindergarten through 8th grade attend the school, according to its website.”

There’s a wall at this school that has some quotations on it. It’s a decorative wall. But it has a particularly offensive quote on the wall, and this is the quote: “The more you act like a lady, the more he’ll act like a gentleman.” That quote has enraged militant feminazis, and they demanded that the quote be removed from the wall! I have a tweet here from one of these enraged women. There’s a picture of the quotation on the wall

“This is the wall at Gregory-Lincoln Middle School in Houston ISD. It’s perpetuating horrible gender stereotypes, shaming women, and relinquishing boys of all responsibility. It’s sexist, mysogonistic [sic], and discriminatory! I am horrified!” Again, the quote: “The more you act like a lady, the more he’ll act like a gentleman.” It’s an advice quote for young women, and we’ve all been raised with a variation of this quote. We’ve all been raised with it!
