Winsor is an all-girls school. Why? The answer is found in the school’s Strategic Vision: “The Winsor School’s mission is to educate girls to be intellectually curious, motivated, and generous-minded.” Mary Pickard Winsor started the private all-girls Boston school in 1886. She wrote the message in the school’s graduate directory, “if women are in these days to be self-respecting they must also have it within their power to be self-supporting.” Her vision was pure and logical. The purpose of all-girls education is, and has always been, to raise women to be self-sustaining while also allowing themselves to become confident in who they are as women.
Raises the question: If they are no longer female, but some kind of gender neutral something or the other, then how can they be confident in themselves "as women"?
I am a dissident journalist, whose work has been published in dozens of daily newspapers, magazines, and journals in English, German, and Swedish, under my own name and many pseudonyms. While living in internal exile in New York, where I am whitelisted, I maintain NSU/The Wyatt Earp Journalism Bureau and some eight other blogs (some are distinctive but occasional venues, while others are mirrors), and also write for stout-hearted men such as Peter Brimelow and Jared Taylor.

Part of the school's mission statement:

Jerry,
Stop being so bloody logical!
Must control the body and also the mind. Commies all of them. School administrators.
