Progress: Schools Teaching Your 10-Year-Old Child About Oral Sex

Funny, but I always thought that schools should focus on teaching our children subjects like reading, writing and math. Not so, evidently! That’s for fuddy-duddy, old school philistines. Nowadays, with that thing called Progress and hopeandchange ™ , our children are being taught about things like oral and anal sex and ‘fisting’. Often under the guise of abstinence programs and without the consent, or even the knowledge of, their parents.
Montana is just the latest example of where this dangerous sexploitation of your children is occurring. Included in their new proposed “health” curriculum:
By fifth grade, they are taught there are several types of intercourse, and by the sixth grade, the draft document states that students should, “Understand that sexual intercourse includes but is not limited to vaginal, oral, or anal penetration; using the penis, fingers, tongue or objects.”
Fifth grade. That is ten and eleven year olds. Sixth grade, eleven and twelve year olds. I’m far from a prude, but I don’t care to discuss anal penetration with objects and, in fact, run screeching from my computer screen when sent to Urban Dictionary and coming across such a topic. Yet, our ten year old children are supposed to be able to handle such discussions? Worse, people think that they should have such discussions?
In Kindergarten, the new curriculum proposes that those five and six year olds know the proper terminology for body parts, such as penis, scrotum and testicles. You see, it’s far more important that they don’t use the word “pee-pee” and that they are sexually knowledgeable and empowered, at age five, than that they know how to spell their own names and count to 20.
I suppose this shouldn’t be surprising since the Obama appointed “Safe School Czar”, Kevin Jennings, promoted fisting to fourteen year olds. Of course, if you disagree with Jennings, you must be a prudish homophobe. Don’t agree with the sexualization of your children and the left’s Anti-Child agenda? You are so old school and oppressive! Try a super cool and “empowering” demonstration of oral sex, for high school students, instead! That’s what happened in Tennessee earlier this year. Guess what? This was allegedly an abstinence program:
“It took me by surprise,” Rodrick Glover told The Tennessean. “My daughter thought it was pornography.”
“The sex-education policy says nothing about comprehensive sex,” he told the newspaper. “I am OK with the written policy with an emphasis on abstinence. How far can they go with this?”
There’s the rub; some programs are operating under the guise of being abstinence programs when they are anything but. At Hillsboro High School in Nashville, Tennessee, for example, the high school seniors were given an actual demonstration of oral sex using anatomically correct models:
Teenagers at a Nashville public high school were given AIDS tests without their parents consent and reportedly shown how to perform oral sex and now at least one parent is demanding answers.
The Hillsboro High School seniors were attending an eight-hour leadership class when representatives from an AIDS education organization demonstrating oral sex on anatomical models.
An actual abstinence-only program should, you know, teach abstinence. It shouldn’t teach children an “out” via alternate forms of sexual acts which, unfortunately, have convinced young people that sexual acts are not actually sexual acts.
Most young adults agree penile-vaginal intercourse is sex, but less than one in five think that oral-genital contact counts as “having sex,” according to a 2007 survey of undergraduate college students.
This attitude toward oral sex represents a dramatic and sudden shift in thinking since 1991, when a similar survey found that nearly twice as many young adults (about 40%) would classify oral-genital contact as sex.
Researchers point to former President Clinton’s infamous statement, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman,” as the pivotal turning point in society’s changing views about oral sex. The attitude shift has been dubbed the “Clinton-Lewinsky” effect.
It’s not just the Clinton-Lewinsky effect; it’s also what is being taught in our schools and a symptom of what has been happening in our society for decades. The sexualization of our children has resulted in many not only trying to turn children into little adults, but to also turn them into trampy versions of themselves.
By the Left’s redefining of words and by their allowing their agendas to drive absolutely everything, they are exploiting our children, dehumanizing them and putting them in danger. They’ve already lost their Racist card due to overuse; the scanner no longer works. They’ve lost their Sexist/Feminist card due to the fact that they’ve been exposed as Femisogynists. Now, they need to lose their For The Children card. They do not care about children; in fact, they merely use them to further their own agendas. There is no clearer evidence than this: oral and anal sex education. At age ten.
I’d wait around for their responses and pathetic attempts at justification, but I’m busily trying to raise a daughter who respects herself and makes smart decisions. And who is allowed to be a seven year old child. Sans thong and sans “sexual empowering knowledge” and, instead, worried more about which Betsy-Tacy book she will read next and what time her friend Will, whose “pee-pee ” she neither cares nor knows anything about, will be out to ride bikes with her.

People who have no problem with killing children before they’re born will not object to sexploiting them a few years after they’re born.

Reminds me of that German article someone posted about a while back.

Both posts refer to the Montana story, but the similarity ends there.
If states are still implementing wildly inappropriate curricula like this, then clearly there aren’t enough writers making the case against explicit lessons better left (as Lori said) to Urban Dictionary.

I’m in Montana, and I can tell you this is not going to end well for the Progressives pushing this crap on the people. This is big news here and people are pissed and are letting those responsible for this know how they feel.
The general attitude about sex education here in Montana is simple… This is a right and the privilege of parents rather than strangers. Don’t infringe on our families.

Earlier I wrote something to the spirit that after vaginal penetration, it’s sodomy.
My submit comment button was a destroy comment button.

Everybody should give the school district superintendent in Helena MT a piece of your mind! Superintendent messenger’s email is : bmessinger@helena.k12.mt.us His address is: Superintendent Messenger 55 S. Rodney, Helena , MT 59601
Keemo on July 14, 2010 at 9:21 PM
Messenger should read Messinger; my bad…
Keemo on July 14, 2010 at 9:22 PM
Wow! Are they having such success in those school systems teaching the basics that they have all this Extra time to teach them this?
Their Test scores should be through the roof!

When I was 10 years old, just finding out that sex existed freaked me out for months! I don’t know if I could have processed all the details.
