Miss Ginger:
. . . "Good morning, boys and girls. This is your first day in kindergarten. I'm your kindergarten teacher, Miss Ginger. Can you say my name? All together now, say after me: Miss Ginger."

Boys & Girls:
. . . [Spoken together.] "Miss Ginger."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well done, boys and girls. I know we'll all have a good time together. We'll play games, I'll teach you some new words, I'll read stories to you, and there will be snack time and rest time, too. So, let's start your first day in kindergarten with a game. Look at this chart I have here. Several different things are shown. I'll ask each of you to choose one, and then I'll talk a little bit about it. We'll begin with -- let me check my list -- ah, Ann. Where is Ann?"

Ann:
. . . "I'm here."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Okay, Ann, what picture do you choose?"

Ann:
. . . "The cat."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "You know, lots of families have a cat, sometimes even more than one. And cats are nice pets. When they're happy, they make a purring sound. Raise your hand if your family has a cat. One, two. Two families have a cat. Okay, Beverly, you're next on my list, what picture do you choose?"

Beverly:
. . . "I choose the rain."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well, we don't like it when it rains because we can't go out and play. But all things that grow outside, like corn, and potatoes, and flowers, and trees need rain. So rain is good. We should be glad when it rains. It means our food is growing. And pretty flowers, too. James, you're next on my list. What picture do you choose?"

James:
. . . "I want to choose the gun."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "James, guns are very dangerous. Guns are very bad. Good people do not have guns. We would all be safer if nobody ever had a gun. I hope your family does not have a gun. Guns shoot people. And if the people don't die, they could be very badly hurt. Please remember that, James. All right, Janet, you're next, what picture do you choose?"

Janet:
. . . "I think the car."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Janet, many cars use gas, most of them as a matter of fact. Do you know the word 'gas?'"

Janet:
. . . "Yes, Dad gets gas in the car so it can go."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Janet, using gas in a car is bad. Very bad. Gas should never be used in cars. Gas makes it so we can't breath, and if there are too many cars, everything will die. We must stop using gas before everyone dies -- you and me, the whole class, everyone you know! We must stop using gas. Tell your parents they must get a car that doesn't use gas. Now then, Patricia, what picture do you choose?"

Patricia:
. . . "The wall."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well, Patricia, a wall keeps people out and that's not a kind thing to do. People need to come here for food, for a place to live, for a place to work, for a place to enjoy their lives. It's not nice to stop them from living here. How would you like it if you weren't allowed to live here? We have no right to stop people from coming into our country. That's hating people. We should be loving people. It's just wrong to keep people out. We should let everyone come here who wants to. Alright then, Paul, please tell me what picture you choose?"

Paul:
. . . "I choose the picture of the girl."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "That surprises me. Why do you choose the girl?"

Paul:
. . . "Her dress reminds me a lot of one of Mom's dresses. I like it a lot. Mom is always happy in that dress."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Paul, I'd expect a girl to choose this picture, not a boy. Your choosing it tells me you're sensitive and caring and thoughtful. Do you know what those words mean? 'Sensitive,' 'caring,' 'thoughtful?'"

Paul:
. . . "I think so. I think they mean I'm sort of like Mom."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "That's exactly right, Paul. You have feelings like your mother. Okay, finally, Ronnie, what picture do you choose?"

Ronnie:
. . . "The policeman."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Ronnie, many policemen are not good people. They will hurt you or take you to the police station if they don't like the way you look. Even if you haven't done anything wrong, they will treat you as if you did do something wrong, and they'll lock you up in jail. I hope you don't want to be a policeman when you grow up. That would be very bad. Well then, boys and girls, that's the end of our game. Wasn't it fun! I hope you liked it."

Boys & Girls:
. . . [They all clap their hands together.]

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Now, it's time for 'Learn-a-Word.' Each day, I'll tell you a brand new word, and I'll tell you what it means. Today, the word is 'sex.' Do you know what that word means, boys and girls?"

Boys & Girls:
. . . [Spoken together.] "No."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well, let me start off by saying there are two kinds of children. There are boy children and girl children. Which of you are boy children?"

Boys:
. . . [Spoken together.] "We are."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Very good. And who are girl children?"

Girls:
. . . [Spoken together.] "We are."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "That's right. Well done. But who can tell me what makes boy children and girl children different?"

Ronnie:
. . . "Girls wear dresses and we don't."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Yes, Ronnie, that's true. Any other reasons?"

Patricia:
. . . "Our hair is longer and nicer than theirs. And we can use braids and ribbons if we want to."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Good, Patricia. Anything else you can think of?"

Boys & Girls:
. . . [Silence.]

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well, let's do a little experiment, boys and girls. Do you know what that word means? The word 'Experiment?'"

Boys & Girls:
. . . [Spoken together.] "Yes."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Good. Paul, since you chose the picture of the girl in a dress, I'd like you to go to the closet at the back of the room. Inside, you'll find several dresses. I think each one will fit you, but please pick one, any one, put it on, and then come back into the classroom. While you're changing clothes, I'll play some music for the rest of the class to listen to."

Paul:
. . . [Exiting the closet after several minutes.] "I like the blue dress. It's sort of pretty. I chose the blue dress. It fits me okay."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "And I see you found the black, patent leather shoes with straps. You look very nice, Paul, very pretty, indeed. But class, now that Paul is wearing a dress, is he a girl?"

Boys & Girls:
. . . [Spoken together] "No."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "No, of course not. Paul is still a boy. So, there must be something else beside clothing that makes you either a boy or a girl. And I'm going to tell you what it is. There are differences in our bodies. It has nothing to do with what clothes we wear. Boy bodies and girl bodies are different."

Paul:
. . . "But, how are they different?"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well, Paul, every boy has something hanging down between his legs and every girl doesn't. Boys use this thing to go Number One, and that's why we call it a pee-er, at least in kindergarten that's what we call it. Next year when you're in first grade, you'll call it a penis. But anyway, a boy can also use his pee-er to get a good feeling. It can give you a lot of pleasure. Boys put their pee-ers into girls and both boys and girls like that. And when they do that, it's called having 'sex.' Do you understand what I'm saying? Do you have any questions? Yes, James."

James:
. . . "Where do I put my pee-er in a girl to get a good feeling?"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Well, we don't talk about that in kindergarten, James. You'll find out all about that next year in first grade. That's when you'll be working with cucumbers and finding out different ways to have and enjoy sex. I think you'll really enjoy first grade."

Paul:
. . . "Can I change back to my regular clothes now?"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Tell me, Paul, how does it feel to be wearing a dress? Do you like it? Do you like the way it feels?"

Paul:
. . . "Well, maybe. It's different. It gives me a funny feeling. It's strange, but I sort of like it."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Would you like to wear the dress a little longer?"

Paul:
. . . "I don't know. It might be okay."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Boys and girls, do you think Paul looks pretty in her blue dress? It matches the color of her eyes."

Boys & Girls:
. . . [Spoken together.] "Oh, yes."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "You know, Paul, if you'd like to, you can wear a dress every single day when you come to kindergarten. I can keep some dresses in the closet for you. You can change when you get here, and then change back before you go home."

Paul:
. . . "Gee, I don't know. I never thought about anything like that."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "But you do like the dress, don't you?"

Paul:
. . . "Sort of. It seems strange. But, it's pretty. It feels sort of nice. The skirt is really different."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "And you can let your hair grow a little bit. And I can put a pretty bow in it. Then, you would look even prettier. And we can call you 'Paula.' That can be your new name. It's such a lovely name. You can be Paula every day when you're here in school. Don't you think that would be fun?"

Paul:
. . . "I guess it sounds sort of fun. Sort of. I don't know what to think, really. I might want to try it."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Then, it's done. Boys and girls, this is now Paula. She is your new classmate. She is no longer Paul. She's a girl. Just like Beverly here, or Ann, or Patricia, or Janet. I'll change the school records so 'Paula' will be on all of her papers."

Paul:
. . . "I sort of like the name 'Paula.' I like the sound of it."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "It will be the name everyone here will call you."

Paul:
. . . "Everyone? Even the teachers, and the principal?"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Oh, yes. But this is a secret, Paula, a big, special secret. Everyone here in class must keep it secret. Paula's parents will think she's Paul, but we'll know she's Paula. She'll be a girl every minute she's here in class, but then she'll pretend to be a boy when she goes back home."

Paul:
. . . "I don't know, Miss Ginger. I don't think so."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "What do you mean, Paula? If you decide you're a girl, you are a girl. That's how it works. You just need to decide."

Paul:
. . . "But, I have a pee-er, and you said girls don't have pee-ers. So I can't be a girl."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Don't worry about that, Paula. There are medicines to help you feel more and more like a girl. We can get those medicines for you to take each day when you come to school. In no time, you'll feel exactly like the girl you want to be. And your body will become more and more like the girl's body you want. And a time will come when you can take care of your pee-er problem, too. You know, lots and lots of boys have become girls. There are boys everywhere who do it every day. And all the schools are working hard to make it easy to do. You just have to decide that's what you want. You just make up your mind. And all the boys who wanted to become girls love being girls. Paula, you can be what you truly want to be -- a beautiful and happy girl, and then later on -- a beautiful and happy woman."

Paul:
. . . "I guess that's what I want. It sounds okay. It sounds really nice. I think the dress is pretty. And it fits me. And I really like the shiny shoes. And I think I'd like to be pretty, too. I want to be a pretty girl. I want people to think I'm pretty. They would see me and they'd say I'm a pretty girl."

Miss Ginger:
. . . "This is what you want, Paula. With your beautiful blue eyes, you were meant to be a girl. And now, you look like a girl, exactly like a girl. And you feel like a girl. Paula, you are already a girl. You just decided. You are a girl!"

Paul:
. . . "I'm a girl! I'm Paula! That's my name now. Paula! And I can be Paula every day. Wow!"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Yes, you are Paula, and you will be Paula from now on. You're no longer a boy, now you're a girl, a lovely blue-eyed girl with a sweet, sweet smile. You will think girl things, and like girl things, and you will be treated as a girl. Today is the first day of your life as a girl. And you'll spend all your days ahead as a happy, beautiful girl. Congratulations, Paula!"

Paul:
. . . "I don't know what to say. This is exciting. I have a whole new life! I'm Paula now!"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Boys and girls, this first day of kindergarten is now over. Since it's the first day, it has been shortened a little, but tomorrow, it will be a regular full-length class. It will be Paula's first full day as a girl."

Paul:
. . . "Miss Ginger, before I go home, can I ask you a question?"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Why, yes of course, Paula. What is it?"

Paul:
. . . "What's on your lip?"

Miss Ginger:
. . . "Paula, that's what's called a mustache. We can talk about it in tomorrow's "Learn-a-Word" session, when we talk about the word 'transgender. There are so many exciting things for you to learn about sex. And I can't wait to tell you all about them. Actually, Paula, your story and my story aren't all that different. We both changed from what we were to what we are now. And by the way, boys and girls, my favorite drag queen story teller will be here tomorrow to read Heather Has Two Mommies to you. I know you'll like that. So, I'll see you all tomorrow. And Paula, remember, don't tell your parents! Not a word!"

Paul:
. . . "I won't tell. I promise."
