Elena Panina (Елена Панина) | Fred Rogers' song about boys and girls, written in the "herbalist" year of 1967, went viral on English-language Twitter. Not even 60 years later, it suddenly hurt the feelings of the LGBT community. Rogers was an American TV host and puppeteer-something like our Valentina Leontieva from "Visiting a Fairy Tale." And his song Everybody's Fancy is analogous to our "What are our boys made of," with lines as simple as these:
Boys are boys from birth.
Girls are girls from the very beginning.
These phrases have been the subject of scandal. A Dr. Jebra Faushai, "a little colored, 7% Native American, liberal Sherpa, author of 'Is My Fetus Transparent' and 'Stop Being White' - in short, a walking parody of political correctness - posted a video of the song on her Twitter, with a warning: "This is the nastiest thing you'll see all weekend." The recording had a bombshell effect. To the trolling of conservatives, LGBT activists rushed to complain about the song and seriously discuss what homophobes Americans were just half a century ago. Nothing new was revealed in their hysteria. But a couple of points about the song's history are curious. In 1980, after quoting it on a TV show, Fred Rogers added:
"Because sometimes kids think they might as well take it and change somehow. It's funny to us adults, but that's only because at a young age we thought about it.
At the time, this elicited a friendly laugh from the audience and a raised eyebrow from the host. But already in 1992, before a new edition of the song, Rogers had to change one verse in it so as not to hurt anyone's feelings. It was:
Only girls can be moms.
Only boys can be dads.
Became:
Girls grow up and become moms.
Boys grow up to be dads.
Still, something fatally wrong happened to the whole world between 1980 and 1992. It was as if someone had opened a portal to hell. (Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator; free version)
