Gay Sex Education

[The Kaiser]

Doesn't the law in the UK prevent schools from actively encouraging homosexuality? What are peoples views on sex education in general, including education on gay issues?

I don't know much about it, I never had any sex ed when I was at school. Well, not unless you count the gossiping behind the gym!

A reason for asking the questions in the first place might be of help.

[The Kaiser]

Apologies, I forgot the link.

The Link

But the main reason for asking is an inquisitive mind.

Initially the report stated that the training would be for teachers, no mention was made of how this would be put into practice in the classroom.
Then; "Its key message, she said, was to encourage respect for others and delay sexual activity until youngsters were ready."
Hilarious, the individual will decide as usual is my bet, so who else proposes how that is supposed to be delayed FFS?

i completely disagree with it
i'm no homophobe , but i just think it's wrong to teach that to young kids
in fact i think the whole sex-ed curricullum is taught to early to kids
that's why we have girls pregnant at 11 and 12 years old
once you know about something , you want to try it at that age

[SFB]

Shite and I thought I was old fashioned.

I'm not convinced sex education encourages under age sex, I would hope it encourages safe underage sex.

I don't believe children should be shown homosexuality in a good light, it's political correctness interfering with how they are brought up.

[SFB]

It might help cut the population down in two ways. :twisted:

But how do we explain the Dutch? Loads of sex education, I think there's no age of consent yet way lower teenage preganancy rates than the UK.
