The photo of the calendar can be seen again and again when the topic of “gender” is discussed. Supposedly the calendar says “Epiphany” on January 6th, but it is much more likely that this was never on an official calendar. Why? We'll show you that here! This photo is:
It is clear that this is not a paper calendar, but was photographed on a monitor, which is clearly visible in a better quality version of the photo, which is also circulating:

7. “Virgin”? That I don't laugh! I know Maria from before...
