SJW of the day

I don't have to go to a fifth grade class to know what is going on. When you have classes called Jane Has Two Daddies it's all I need to know.

 

I was going to bring up the 5th grade maturation clinics done here, but forgot which thread it was in.
I think they do a pretty good job going over the basics. They don't go into the actual sex discussion, but cover all the basics quite well.

 

A few years back when one of my kids were going through the maturation classes and a consent form was sent to parents. You had the option of keeping kiddo out of it or sitting in on the classes. I chose to sit in on the classes. They split the kids up by male/female and covered a bunch of factual basics. They didnt discuss much of cultural or social aspects in regards to fringe groups ( ie: trans)

It's nice to know that all 5th graders still laugh uncontrollably when the teacher says "erection"
And I think it's sort of comforting to my kids to see that all their classmates are going through the same awkward and confusing stuff that they are.

Fyi the wife and I go over the top with all sorts of sex education with our kids starting way earlier than 5th grade. It's a rough and bumpy road out there and we're trying to teach how to navigate it.

 

Teacher of the year right there!

Those are not young kids and that's not even in our country

 

They do that in history class after explaining why America is evil and the normal white man is the devil.

 

I am gonna find something that looks pretty and makes me feel moral outrage. Just like you do!

 

Chart looks more like where abortion is more prevalent.

 

That's awesome. It is the responsibility of the parents to teach their kids about this stuff.

I get to have awkward conversations with other adults about why my children use anatomically correct terms for their body parts (or exchange awkward words over my oldest exclaiming "well butter my butt and call me a biscuit!" to another classmate) and I have never hid that I have "womanly things" that happen to me every month. I am all for arming them with age appropriate knowledge.

I don't get the puritan stance on sex and bodies. It makes no sense to me.
"If we don't tell them about it, they won't do it!"
They can and will do it - and they will learn from pornography and never use protection.

Anyone ever see Blue Lagoon? Life, uh, finds a way.

 

I burned up our betamax copy of it.

I'd feel Biden-ey watching it now.

 

Pay attention.
He claimed that sex ed classes reduced VD.
And you are correct that I proved nothing as I have
stated over and over that I have no need to prove anything
because I didn't make the claim of a cause and effect.

 

Just by way of doing a little checking I Googled Florida abstinence
and found that Florida allows the option of abstinence-only education
but does not require it. The pertinent document.

 

Brook Shields in that movie was the most mesmerizing thing i had ever seen at that time. True fact: in 1984ish I lived in Dumont, NJ and she lived in Haworth just barely a 1/4 away from my house. (One of my other neighbors was the notorious mafia hitman Richard Kucklinsky-The Iceman.) My friends and I would routinely ride by her house and try to see if we could get a glimpse of her. I saw her 1 time and it instantly made me a man.

 

What’s a Betamax?

 

Better than VHS but couldn't do a movie in a single tape, so it was banished.
