These woke bastards won't quit pushing their retarded agenda.
The 2025 Scripps National Spelling Bee is accepting the spelling of the word “women” as “womyn,” according to documents reviewed by The National News Desk (TNND)
Study lists for the contest, which is open to students under 16, have been published by multiple schools. The lists show the organization is allowing the spelling of the noun as either “womyn” or “women.”
Some people supporting feminism use “womyn,” which replaces the suffix “men.”
A page updated in 2020 on New Discourses, a website that describes itself as an “educational resource” for the “politically homeless,” states that some writers who spell words by avoiding "man” or “men" see them as "an expression of female independence and a repudiation of traditions that define women by reference to a male norm.”
This belief is supported further by the identification (mostly antiquated now) of ‘man’ with ‘mankind,’ meaning all of humanity,” the article continues. “It is therefore an act of resistance to male dominance (patriarchy) and misogyny to deliberately remove the ‘man’ from ‘woman’ by changing the a to another letter.”
A spokesperson for the Scripps National Spelling Bee told TNND all of the words used in its program are pulled from the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary, which is its official dictionary. The spokesperson added the spelling bee looks to include " include alternate spellings for any words that have them listed in Merriam-Webster" when building its lists.
