Interesting how people want to have all the benefits of a tolerant and inclusive society but without really changing themselves into tolerant and inclusive individuals.
Children need to understand differences in people so they are tolerant when they grow up. They don't just suddenly become gay. Number of factors involved. Tolerance is important and children need to given deep understanding how people are different so they don't judge when they grow up.
This is idiocy of radicalized undesirables living in birmingham who should all be shipped out, no place for these types in Britain.
Nobody has an objection to this. Having grown up in the UK at a time where people weren't able to openly express their sexual orientation, i can see how society has changed, and adults as well as children need to understand these different identies to avoid causing offence/friction.
The problem is the content is not being defined centrally, it's upto the school and some schools are not taking parents into consultation. This creates suspicion. The new legislation clearly states that parents have to be taken into consultation and that content delivered has to be age appropriate.
Look at the news article below.
Are they really going to teach this to children?
This is a mainstream UK newspaper - https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/20...olchildren-taught-latest-victory-transgender/
school children will be taught that "all genders" can have periods in new sex education lessons, in a victory for transgender rights campaigners.
The advice to teachers was approved by Brighton & Hove City Council as they try to tackle stigma around menstruation.
The new advice follows a council report which said: "Trans boys and men and non-binary people may have periods", adding that "menstruation must be inclusive of all genders".
Now at my school girls were taught about periods from a young age, 9 or 10 i think. At that age, children don't know about sexuality, i don't think it's appropriate for them to be confused with this extremely unlikely edge case. Now if my childrens school had a girl or boy attending who was trans, i think it would be imperative for the kids to learn about this, so that child is not stigmatised - but in a situation where that is not the case, is it appropriate for 9 year old to be taught this? If they were teaching it to 13 year olds, i don't mind. At that point kids have enough information to process this correctly.
