Graphic sex education for youth is the new battleground at the United Nations, as evidenced by side events during the past week at the Commission on the Status of Women:
While delegates are busy negotiating resolutions and outcome documents, non-governmental organizations and UN organizations campaign for the installation of socially radical curriculums in Africa and America alike.
“Oral sex, masturbation and orgasms need to be taught in education…” Comprehensive sex education is “the only way to combat heterosexism and gender conformity…” “We must make these issues a part of every middle and high-school student’s agenda.” “The idea of sex education remains an oxymoron if it is abstinence-based, or if students are still able to opt-out…” Those opposed to homosexuality “are stuck in a binary box that religion and family create…” “‘Gender in the blender’ programs, which are discussion-based programs for Belgian teachers who want to discuss gender and transgender issues in their courses, as a model for other nations who wished to encourage their teachers to address these topics.”
The UN system was also advocating for the sexualization of youth at this year’s CSW. A panel sponsored in part by the UN Population Fund advocated for “comprehensive sex education” not only as a tool to combat “gender oppression” but also as the key to achieving all of the Millennium Development Goals. The panelists presented the highly controversial UNESCO guidelines on sex education, as well as a new IPPF-sponsored curriculum as the gold standard for comprehensive sex education. Both curriculums promote a liberal approach to sex, approve of masturbation and expose children to graphic content in their youngest years. The panelists also insisted that these programs be implemented in schools in order to reach as many students as possible, and they also recommended they start as soon as possible.
Surely Chuck Fugate, Sam Taylor and Gordon Pace told you that their International Baccalaureate program is an NGO of the above mentioned UNESCO, a specialized agency of the United Nations.
Surely, those same open and honest arbiters of Ozark education informed you that you can also find the above, “Millennium Development Goals,” in the IB curriculum and IB website. Isn’t it great our teachers can teach a truly international Belgian “gender blender program” to our kids? Surely they told you!
