The only LGBT education that a 4 grader needs is that rainbow = bad touch.

It wouldn't exist. The demographic these books target are too young to care about being in a relationship. Most of them still think the opposite gender has cooties. Pushing the alphabet on them at that age will just cause problems down the road. Just because an 8yo boy thinks girls are icky doesn't mean he'll turn out gay. Your personality and identity shift so much so rapidly during the first 20 years of your life. Kids are in no place to be making concrete decisions about who they are and will be for the rest of their lives.I'm trying to figure out how non-grooming books for kids on the broader LGB shit would look.
Everything she listed is a hyperspecific topic related to having an active sex life, meanwhile real sexual health concerns are vaguely referred to gyno exam and general check ups.
No, an actual sexual healthcare for minors is taking girls seriously when they talk about odd pain which may end up to be endometriosis, it's running tests at endocrynologists' when a child has gastrointestinal issues that turned out to be coming as a symptom of malfunctioning gonads

Yeah, I definitely don't remember being in 4th grade and talking about wet dreams, erections lasting longer, getting boners for no reason, etc.
Yeesh, that reminds me of an anecdote I saw where someone’s sex ed class had the girls write down their hopes and dreams on a sticky note, and if it had a mark meaning pregnancy on the back, the note was torn up. That’s definitely not going to fuck up any kid’s views on motherhood. Somehow I got lucky with a pretty decent class in the 2010s. Definitely better than whatever troonshit or god forbid, straight up porn they’re probably talking about these days.When I was in school in the 2000’s, we had abstinence-only education, and this was in a very Democrat area. I’m a millenial-fag, and I know people in even non-religious schools, in the Midwest and the South, who passed around a piece of tape and were told as a woman, every time you have sex, your worth goes down. Must feel really good for the (many) molested girls told they’re ruined by things out of their control.
That being said, the pendulum shift has clearly gone way too far.

Right. I think that's why my example was about having same-sex parents, which I think is fine for a book. Gay people exist so it's normal they have some representation. Trans people don't, hence the heavy-handed approach where they need to retcon history and all this shit. Then the pedos and pervs join in and it's insanity.It wouldn't exist.

The purposeful blending of gay with trans so you look like a dated bigot for not wanting your child to be harmed by the gender cult. Classic guilt-tripping with emotional blackmail, shaming you for being so outdated and rigid in your archaic beliefs. Sorry, you wanted your son to be a stonemason like his old man, not a friggin' ballerina! This shit is so insane and patronizing. I hate these freaks.Understanding and Accepting your LGBTQ+ Child
Family acceptance is the number-one determinant of LGBTQ+ youth safety, health, and wellbeing. All parents want their children to be safe and healthy. Still, when a child or teen comes out as LGBTQ+, family members might struggle to accept this truth, especially if they were raised in communities where LGBTQ+ people were not accepted or discussed.
It’s okay to temporarily feel grief when your child comes out as gay or transgender. It’s important to recognize, however, that what you are grieving is your expectation of how you imagined your child’s life in the future.
Your child is still right there in front of you: and by sharing their truth, they are moving closer to living a healthy, authentic life rather than one of denial or shame. To ensure that they make it through the challenges of LGBTQ+ childhood and adolescence, they need your unconditional love, support, and acceptance.
Yeah fuck that if I lived somewhere like that I'd homeschool.Seattle doesn't allow parents to opt their children out of the indoctrination, either. They can opt out of sex ed, but not the queering garbage. And now even the parents are getting "reeducation." No reference to any of the harms, just undermining parental influence and rights.
The fact we were never taught about endometriosis and that it’s normal to be in agonizing pain on your period and during sex is despicable
Where do you live, Sierra Leone? Afghanistan?who passed around a piece of tape and were told as a woman, every time you have sex, your worth goes down

Can confirm - US sex ed is a clusterfuck. Mine could be summed up in one sentence - "The safest sex is no sex." We didn't learn about safe sex. We were just told not to have it. They never really touched on the dangers of having unprotected sex. The area I grew up in isn't conservative. I honestly think they were just too lazy to add it to the curriculum.USA, dawg. Why do you think millenials and zoomers are retarded and girls want to chop their tits off?
This country is filled with shadow run Mormon child sex torture work camps. The USA isn’t the greatest country in the world, even though it used to be.
In my school district, sex ed and health were always taught by the PE teacher for some reason. The only thing I remember is being told to just not have sex and not being allowed to call the fluids that come out of your vagina during you period blood. I can't remember what we ere supposed to call it, but we weren't allowed to call it blood. The area I grew up in wasn't conservative at all, but our sex ed curriculum would have you none the wiser. The fact that those are the only two things I remember from that part of my public education is a testament to what an absolute clusterfuck it is. As one would expect, there were multiple teen pregnancies in my school.Honestly the idea that schools need to teach such a thing is a pretty alien concept and part of the problem it's difficult for them to do correctly. Basic reproductive stuff should be covered in bio/science classes in dry, clinical terms, and doctors should prompt them in their understanding of certain things and explain in more detail if necessary during regular check ups. There's always a what if situation where something falls through the cracks but that is life and part of the growing pains.
How many of these fucking books do we need? It's just the same thing over and over. "Little Timmy went to the pride parade and learned that inclusion and being tolerant is fun! wheeeeee." Hell, even the spines tend to look the same. You have rainbow motifs and the title is always something like "A Day of Pride!" or "Esteban's Sparkly Dress!" or "Rainbow 1-2-3!"
I don't think that there's any way to make sexual identity the focus of a kids' book that isn't bizarre and perverse. It's a little like non-mainstream political ideology -- you might have a kids' book that alludes to it in some way (for instance, kids' books with historical settings) but publishing a kids' book about the virtue of such-and-such non-mainstream political ideology is inevitably going to be weird and bad.I'm trying to figure out how non-grooming books for kids on the broader LGB shit would look.
Like I said before, a lot of these things don't belong in kids' books simply because kids don't care. Boys think girls have cooties. Girls think boys have cooties. They don't care about politics because they're too young to do anything with/about them.I don't think that there's any way to make sexual identity the focus of a kids' book that isn't bizarre and perverse.

Desmond is Amazing
I cannot for the life of me remember what they wanted us to call it. Come to think of it, my high school was super weird about word policing. I had an English teacher who forbid us from using "be" verbs (was, were, am, etc.) or ever writing in the first person. I had to unlearn so many habits when I started college.It’s weird they’d harp on it, but technically, it’s menarche (or menses, or something, I don’t quite remember either.) It is blood, but the difference is between needing a tampon, and needing the Emergency Room.
