      Well I know an AP English lit teacher in Florida who has been told he is not even allowed to teach Vonnegut, and has been instructed to teach parts of the Bible. Does that help?

      AP psych courses have stricter standards than other courses (so that they qualify as AP). AP psych standards, for 30ish years, have required instructions on gender identity.
