The Bridgend County Borough Council in
south Wales recently funded a sex education PowerPoint presentation that was intended
to be shown to teenage students at a number of schools. Why is this unusual or
controversial? Because the presentation referenced asking for consent before choking a partner.
The presentation, provided by the council's domestic
abuse service, Assia, fortunately never made it to the classrooms, but was meant
to teach children that “consent (when it comes to choking during sex)
should happen every time sexual choking is an option.” The lesson noted, “It is
never OK to start choking someone without asking them first and giving them
space to say no.” But, by God, if they give their consent, choke away!! “Every
time sexual choking is an option?” Should it really ever be an option? “I love
you and I am so hot right now I’d like to strangle you” is not a thought that
has ever popped into my head, old fuddy-duddy that I am. What’s on the docket
for these students next semester? Slapping, punching, spitting, whipping,
defecating, stabbing?
But by no means is sexual “inclusivity” just the realm of
the U.K. The Supreme Court Of The United States recently agreed
to hear oral arguments in the religious liberty case, Mahmoud v. Taylor,
involving Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) in Maryland, the district
that has decided to include in its pre-K through fifth-grade language
arts curriculum picture books that feature homosexual and cross-dressing
characters. Pre-K through fifth-grade?! Worse yet, the district has
banned both parental notification and the option for parents to opt out of
exposing their children to these wildly age-inappropriate materials “for any
reason.” As a result, a number of parents of diverse faith backgrounds are
suing the district. Good for them. The indoctrination and abuse of their kids
should be stopped immediately.
According to reports, the district
openly acknowledges that various LGBTQ books were brought into the schools and
that “Teachers are expected to fold them into the curriculum as they
would any other book.”
The LGBTQ “storybooks” were added
as part of MCPS’s commitment to “provid[ing] a culturally responsive …
curriculum that promotes equity, respect, and civility.” MCPS believes that
“[r]epresentation in the curriculum creates and normalizes a fully inclusive
environment for all students” and “supports a student’s ability to empathize,
connect, and collaborate with diverse peers and encourages respect for all.”
I have to call “bullshit” on that line
of “reasoning.” If the school district wanted to “create and normalize a fully
inclusive environment for all students,” why not “fold” other books into the
curriculum? Books specifically touting heterosexuality, for example. Or books lauding
conservative thought. How about introducing them to the Bible at this early
age?
But that’s not going to happen.
Instead, kids may soon be taught that they need to get consent before drugging
or stabbing a partner “every time drugging or stabbing is an option.”
The West is hell-bent on choking itself
to death, via ultra-woke insanity, hyper-tolerance, and an utterly unwarranted belief
in globalism.
I could just as well have edited the previous
sentence to read, “The West is hell-bent.”
