‘Bootie’ problem at CMS? Mom says offensive question went too far
A Charlotte, North Carolina, high school biology class gave a test on genetics. One question raised some eyebrows:
“LaShamanda has a heterozygous big bootie, the dominant trait. Her man Fontavius has a small bootie which is recessive. They get married and have a baby named LaPrincess. What is the probability that LaPrincess will inherit her mama’s big bootie?”
One concerned parent wrote a letter of complaint:
“I am extremely concerned that this type of language is being used and considered expectable [sic] to be issued to students”
