[stumbledin]

rimary schools across Brighton and Hove are being encouraged to teach children more about gender identities and diverse sexual orientations.

A statement encouraging schools to deliver “non-statutory sex education” as well as the required relationship, and sex education (RSE) introduced on the national curriculum from September goes before of the city councillors on Monday, 15 June.

They might as well just say, "yeah we know this is being removed all across the country because it's tosh but we still have skin in the game so we are going to try to get you to push our agenda anyway. Voluntarily of course"

The comments are good though. Wonder if they'll be removed in the morning.

Good to see that the comments are all pointing out the sexism and homophobia which gender identity is based on.

Well it’s Brighton isn’t it?

Feels more like doubling down. It feels like many parents won’t even know what is being taught. If every parent had to sit through a lesson, I am quite sure there’d be quite a pushback as the penny would drop.

I can't see any mention of where this statement has come from - can any random make a similar suggestion that then the council has to then consider and vote on? Because, you know, I have an idea ...

I mean, on the surface of it, that article it all looks perfectly agreeable. It's only because I know "All-sorts" are a batshit harmful project that I'm concerned about this.

It enables them to understand and respect in age-appropriate ways the diversity of sexual orientations and gender identities in Brighton and Hove, and prepares them for life in the modern world

Haha yeah, then they grow up in "the modern world" and realize everything they were taught about this at school was bullshit.

Maybe that it. Activating the kids ‘bullshitometer’ early.

I hadn't seen the comments when I posted this last night. Yes they are good!
