      It’s one of the tactics of fascism, to get heavily involved in sex. Regulating it, controlling it, and using the overlap with shame to control people. There’s tonnes written on the subject and it’s fascinating, but also terrifying.

      The less educated people are about sex and gender (and everything else, of course) the easier they are to manipulate not only in to getting (E: and constantly being) pregnant and producing more worker drones, and hating anyone who doesn’t fit in to the false binary and gender roles they’re taught, but also in to abusive relationships, which is the only kind of relationship these people are capable of.

      Bedrooms, classrooms, bathrooms, doctors’ offices, delivery rooms, the list goes on and on. But ask these fucks to take a stand on gun control, hate speech, or climate change…no, no. That’s freedom.

      I know it’s frowned upon to refer to people as Nazis, so I would never do that. But, from my perspective, I struggle to define them as anything but a bunch of fucking Nazis.

    Abstinence is easy when you’re a vile sack of hate like you, Ron. Teens however consist of two thirds of hormones and some emotions they don’t understand (neither do I to be honest). They’ll find out the anatomy part by themselves over time.

      They know that. The purpose of this bullshit is to make kids feel guilty about their bodies and to produce unwanted pregnancies in poor people. All to make people easier to control.

      They’ll find out the anatomy part by themselves over time.

      The huge number of fully grown wilfully ignorant bigots who don’t have the first clue about how biology works (not only that sex and gender are a spectrum, but stuff like how periods and pregnancy work), and are happy to hate others based on the lies they’ve been taught, begs to differ.

        You didn’t need to understand how sex and gender work to find out where the babies come out. I don’t expect them to get a PhD in biology, but they’ll figure out the basics.

          E: I guess “as well as the number of unexpected pregnancies” wasn’t obvious, nor was “consent”, so there you go 🙄

            Yeah, that’s the figure out part. I didn’t say it’ll be a pleasurable experience. And you did forget STDs, so here you go 🙄

    Elissa Barr, a professor of public health at the University of North Florida and a member of the sex ed advocacy group Florida Healthy Youth Alliance, has been keeping in touch with local school officials and compiling a list of words and phrases they’ve been told to remove from their reproductive health plans.

    These words include abuse, consent, domestic violence, fluids, gender identity and LGBTQ information, she said.

    Nazi assholes sure do love burning books, don’t they?

    They also love removing any consideration of consent. That word does make it difficult for them to continue raping children.
