Taxpayer-funded transgender dolls headed to Minnesota classrooms this fall.

“First-of-their-kind” paper dolls with removable genitalia will be introduced to some Minnesota classrooms for children as young as 4 years old, according to a New York Post report.

The dolls, developed over six years by professors at the University of Minnesota Medical School’s Institute for Sexual and Gender Health, come with gender-neutral names like Sam, Rory, Avery and Parker. They feature more than 100 interchangeable pieces of clothing, hairstyles, accessories — and detachable internal and external genitals.

The stated goal is for kids to “learn about the different options that exist for who they can be.”

One of the co-founders, Associate Professor Dianne Berg, previously said:

“Everyone should be learning that there’s diversity in gender identity and that what makes you real is not what your body parts are, but how you think and feel.”

She added that she has already begun using the dolls with her own patients who are between five and ten years old. (Video: AI)

The university’s Medical School receives $15 million in annual state funding. Critics, including Dr. Quentin Van Meter, past president of the American College of Pediatricians, have raised serious concerns about the age-appropriateness of introducing such materials to young children.

A university spokesperson said no public funds supported the commercialization of the dolls, but declined to detail how much taxpayer money went into the research and development.

In my view, directing public resources toward materials of this nature for preschool and elementary-age children raises serious questions about both fiscal priorities and developmental suitability. At the very least, parents must have a clear and unambiguous right to opt their children out. Many critics go further and argue the entire program should be shut down.

So let me get this straight, the same guy who started a club to mingle with gay students at the high school where he taught, and who handed out tampons to boys, is now giving kids dolls with interchangeable genitalia?

I never would’ve seen that coming.
