The part that's really sick is that sex education doesn't start until 5th grade in most places. Prior to that age it's only about family make-up and who loves and supports the child in question...nothing in regards to sexuality is ever brought up at all.
If that's the case, time to ban any discussion of parents, family, and traditional marriage, because it's all controversial and triggering to someone.
The problem is too many teachers struggle to be neutral.
They've also given money to all of the opponents of the bill, but I guess that's not as grabby.
Ah, let's discount the book because people abused it for those purposes. The US Constitution was used for that very reason as well. And, that's why we need to have real conversations, not this back-and-forth. I'm not Evil and neither are you or others that believe as you do. We just disagree about the law and how it affects others.Ahhh...the Bible. The book written by imperfect humans and used as the excuse for oppression and murder for centuries. The only thing that changes is which people to exclude/shame/bully/oppress/abuse/murder.
Ridiculing a student for reading the Bible sounds totally wrong. It would be just as wrong mocking someone for prepping for their bar mitzvah, or reading the Quran, or practicing a Shinto ritual.
Yes, that was my experience. There was no discussion of it in my household. The only reason I kind of knew what it was is because I watched Look Who’s Talking A LOT when I was a kid. I loved that movie and anyone who’s seen that movie knows that the intro starts with a fertilization scene. That got me curious and that’s how I ended up doing my project on it.
So, you're saying Disney has given money to everyone in the FL statehouse? This claims Disney has funded both all of the proponents and all of the opponents?
Well this is the thing. What are they giving all this money for and when are they calling in their favours?
I wonder if the director had any idea he’d/she’d be inspiring little Ravens around the world to explore the act of reproduction? This made me chuckle.
The problem is both can be connected - esp in the case of bills seeking to prohibit teaching of “divisive concepts”. FL’s bill specifically is more narrow, but the ones introduced in our state were wide ranging and would greatly impact history (and English) as well as family life curricula topics.
Sexual orientation is likely a combination of genetic information, prenatal conditions, and external factors.Ah, let's discount the book because people abused it for those purposes. The US Constitution was used for that very reason as well. And, that's why we need to have real conversations, not this back-and-forth. I'm not Evil and neither are you or others that believe as you do. We just disagree about the law and how it affects others.
Sexual orientation is either genetic or it's a lifestyle. I pointed at at least one article where the science hasn't found a link to genetics. Feel free to cite counter examples. If it's not biological what other options are there?
Still friends; regardless of your position on this bill or your sexual orientation
It's not an issue they care about. Issues they care about are things like special exemptions for theme park operators when Florida cracks down on social media companies.
Sadly there are many parents in my state taking that position right now. It’s disgusting.
The existence of LGBTQIA+ people is not a moral value.
This is what happens when you were raised by parents who let you watch pretty much anything.
I thought those things were tadpoles, if you know what I mean.
No, I'm saying nobody is being oppressed. If this bill actually did what you seem to think it does, I'd be right there with you. But it doesn't.
