Madison County Public Library administrators were asked to go over a list of potentially “sexually explicit” books to be moved from the children’s and young adult section to the adult section. The majority of these books were about the LGBTQ community. At least one was added to the list because the author’s last name is Gay.

    sex positive activists are a bit too eager to impose their beliefs on children in public schools

    This is nonsense

      It’s not nonsense. I don’t think the activists think they’re doing anything wrong or have bad intent, they just don’t respect the innocence of children as much as others, which causes conflict.

            Sex positive educators are literally experts in age-appropriate sexual discussion.

            Pretending they are not because age-appropriate discussion freaks you out is your mistake not theirs.

            Experts do actually know more than you do

                Hey guess what? Your kid is going to try anal some day. Might be nice for them to know how to do it safely, when that time comes.

                And yes, there is a bevy of literature available for what age ranges such subjects are appropriate, and those guidelines are followed by trained professionals.

                  You’re a fucking sicko. No, kids do not need to be taught how to do anal sex by their school teachers. Can’t believe i’m typing that.

                  Screenshotting this.

                    It’s so telling of how you look at the world that you think I would ever feel regret about posting that comment lol

                    While your reaction is funny, the sad thing is that your denial of reality causes genuine harm and long-term suffering.
