elementary schoolers aren’t being taught “sexuality”. they’re just taught that some people are different from them and that’s okay! some kids have two dads or two moms and that’s awesome!
they’re not “ learning sexuality”. They learn about their own bodies and how it may change. I was taught pretty rudimentary in elementary and a bit more in depth in fifth grade. Some kids go through puberty earlier than others and learning this early can help them understand in general. And it’s proven to be a protective measure against sexual abuse.
The only thing I’ve been able to do with what I learned in school is dig myself into an even deeper hole of assured life long virginity (I’m going to college for computer science)
While I still think, if you have to learn in school what being gay means, you are not consuming enough pop-culture during childhood^^. I learned about lesbians from Sailor Moon and about gays from the telenovela that was running back then, and therefore it felt just normal.
Because it’s scientifically proven that teaching a generation of kids about drugs without proper education leads to more drug addicts of that age. Or teaching them about sex without proper education leads to a oversexualized culture and loss of intimacy with the same generation.
So teaching people about gay/lesbian/trans people without proper education leads to a false sense of self that they should also partake in those groups rather than learning what actually makes an lgbtq person.
Probably none. As over sexualisation usually comes from repression and not established boundaries e.g. the fetishisation of minors. Sometimes people mistake bodies or body parts that are not covered or talking about sex as a sexualised society.
Proper education means the opposite of a 1 day long course on sexual activity at 4th grade like everyone I know had. a 2 month long course on what sexual activity does to the human body, the brain, and your mentality on sexual activity.
You act like we were taught properly when it was far from what we should have been taught. The danger of STDs and how they actually form. Not just the symptoms but where it comes from and how not using protection, having too much sexual intercourse, and hopping between sexual partners is severely dangerous.
You wonder why abortion is such a huge problem, it’s because we weren’t taught how dangerous pregnancy is and why the idea of sex for fun causes far more issues with pregancy than any intimate relationship really does. Sex is a means for dopamine and not a means of intimacy.
my school, my church, and my parents never talked about gay stuff and then I became a full-blown gay.
I’m living testimony that you can’t just catch it from the air.
Did you watch Sesame Street? Apparently that can cause it too along with "subliminal" messaging from Disney.
Wow, really impressive they could implant subliminal messaging on a show they didn't make nor own
Disney Magic
Maybe it was invisible ninja gays pouring gay-dust on you while you slept?
But was there a rainbow in your classroom?
You probably sat next to a gay in church.
Must have been a gay fungus
I invaded Poland one time but it was an accident and they were chill about it
Same! Turned into a big party too! Met some really nice people.
Family Guy: we were invited , punch was served!
On the contrary my ex friend learned about WWII in high school and now really likes the Austrian painter :/
If someone thinks being gay is a choice, they’re not really straight, they just haven’t met the right person yet ;)
100% lmao

Elementary kids shouldn't be learning sexuality
This user hates education

Need to get remove all the books with heterosexual couples from classrooms then.
I am Polish and I learned about WW2 in school, what should I do?
Invade germany first kurwa
Invade the next town over
Double it and give it to next country
I was taught math because "you won't realistically have a calculator with you everywhere you go in life", but I have. Does that count?
Yet to, which implies it's not out of the question yet.
Never leave invading Poland off the table
of course it's out of the question! they just don't want to hope for that 1% of probability
YET.
Yet?
Years of academy training wasted!
They taught us in the eighties and nineties during the aids epidemic, so my question is when did it become controversial ?????
It’s never about the kids, it’s about protecting the fragile egos of their parents.

No. Surely you didn't. But someone did.
I cackled a little.
i mean. he looks kinda gay.
Why would kids need to learn about gay relationships in school?
For the same reasons they need to learn about straight relationships in school.
The only thing I’ve been able to do with what I learned in school is dig myself into an even deeper hole of assured life long virginity (I’m going to college for computer science)
I dunno, I learned about King Henry VIII at age 8, now I'm 35 and already on my 3rd divorce, 4th beheading and 2nd "just died".
No daughters yet though, let alone a sickly son.
Why do kids need to learn these things in school any way can't they just go to school learn match science and other things .??
Your definitely one of them

what does “proper education” mean in any of these scenarios? what sources are you using?
Probably none. As over sexualisation usually comes from repression and not established boundaries e.g. the fetishisation of minors. Sometimes people mistake bodies or body parts that are not covered or talking about sex as a sexualised society.
Because wanting proper education is sexualizing what exactly? Smells like guilty conscience
Yeah, I don't see it either. Being secretive, hindering people educating themselves is the breeding ground for what they're trying to prevent.

Mr Butterworth couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. Let alone invade Poland.
Wanting to teach kids about sexual preference is weird to me
So you're against any mention of gay couples whatsoever in schools?
Or logically about straight couples. Teachers wouldn't be allowed to say they're married, and 95% of all literature needs to be tossed from schools.
That's what happens when you conflate history with degeneracy.
Keep the kids out of it. Simple.
Why?
Dude, what do you mean? They're fucking kids. Why do you insist?
So you want kids to hear no mention of gay couples or gay people in school?
If you're a teacher, keep your flag at home. YES.
why? teaching them that gay people exist isn’t gonna do anything except make them more accepting of others (and potentially themselves)
Accepting of others? They're kids they do that naturally. You got kids? Isn't going to do anything? Then keep that shit away from them. Again, simple.
