Sex education...or normalizing pedophilia? You decide

This is the second article I have written today that has its origins in content provided by Reduxx, so I want to make sure you follow them on Twitter. It’s important to support content providers!

Reduxx shared a video produced by a Dutch sexual education “charity” that might just trip your triggers, as it did mine. It doesn’t promote pedophilia per se, but it dramatically normalizes the discussion of explicit sexual topics with children and also suggests that adults rubbing and kissing children can be pleasurable.

The context is “sex education,” but in many instances within the video, the line between sexual activity and normal adult/child affection is blurred to the point of nonexistence. It’s difficult to distinguish how adults talking to children like this from obvious grooming.

Reduxx translated the video and blurred the images of the children since the Rutgers Foundation clearly thought that sharing the faces of children discussing masturbation and getting their genitals rubbed by adults was just fine.

On March 20, the Rutgers Foundation uploaded a video titled Wat vind ik fijn (Eng: What Do I like?) to social media. The charity, which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, purports to focus on issues of childhood sexuality and sex education.

The 5-minute long video produced by Rutgers was intended to kick off “Spring Jitters Week,” a national project encouraging the expansion of sexual education in primary schools.

In the video, young children of varying ages are seen discussing sexual topics with their parents or guardians. But the graphic nature of the conversations left many viewers disturbed.

The video is incredibly disturbing, not just for what is said but for the entire tone of the discussions.

It is always going to be true that adults educating children about sexual matters will be challenging. Questions about what is age-appropriate will of course dominate, but hardly the only issue. Children who are awakening to their sexuality will undoubtedly feel shame and embarrassment, and adults have to find a way to overcome their own squeamishness as well.

One would hope that a charity dedicated to educating people about how to deal with these challenges could find a better way. Instead, they produced this video.

To a 4-year-old boy named Mats, equally as invasive questions are posed about penises and masturbation.

“What about you? Do you ever play with your dick? Do you ever touch your willie,” his mother asks. “Yes, and how does that feel? And when do you do that?”

The young boy responds that he is unsure of how to answer.

His mother continues with a barrage of questions: “Do you do that when we’re eating? No, right? Or in the classroom? No, not at all. Why don’t you do that in class? When can you play with your dick?”

To another boy, referring to sex as “fucking or sucking” is suggested by his mother and father.

Less than 24 hours after the video was released, the Rutgers Foundation deleted the video, claiming it was being taken “out of context” by some.

“We find that the video is being taken out of context by some people online and used to spread misinformation. To protect the children in the video, we have taken the video offline,” the foundation wrote on their official Twitter.

There are just so so many things wrong with this. If you produced a video of a sexual predator grooming a child to consider sexual activities with an adult it would look much like what the Rutgers Foundation produced. The initial discussion to me was the creepiest–an adult asking a 4-year-old child about how they liked to be rubbed by an adult is just creepy.

Who thinks like this?

People who are so marinated in normalizing everything sexual that it never occurs to them that sexualizing children is wrong, because to them everything and everybody is sexual. If it can’t be shoved inside, rubbed over our body, or used in some other sexual way then it is irrelevant.

The modern Left has insisted for over a century that human beings are primarily, or at least overwhelmingly sexual beings. It is our defining characteristic. True freedom and sexual freedom are, for all intents and purposes, synonymous.

This is one of the main reasons for Leftism’s hostility to Western Culture, even more than any economic matters. Most civilizations have focused tremendous energy on sublimating and channeling sexual desires since unchecked they are the source of so many social ills. It’s not a hostility to sex, per se, but the recognition that unchecked sexual desires overwhelm other behaviors necessary for society to function.

The Greeks, for instance, were hardly prudish, but if you look at Greek statuary you will notice that the genitals of nude men are smaller than you would expect. This was intentional. Overemphasis on genitals was a sign of bestiality–lack of reason. The bodily ideal as portrayed in society was a well-taken care of physique, but also a dominance of reason over passion.

We have reversed this hierarchy in the modern world, and many have noted that in the years of decline, Rome turned from intellectual virtues to sybaritic values.

Once you establish that all humans are primarily sexual beings, that bodies exist primarily to provide pleasure, and that children need to be inducted into these mysteries, you get this.

We shouldn’t be shocked. This is the future. Get used to it, or fight it like your children’s lives depend upon it.
