Children as young as seven could be taught gay history in a campaign that urges teachers to introduce pupils to sexual and swear words.
The organisers also want historical figures labelled homosexual - even if there is no evidence they were gay.
The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender History Month is backed by Scotland Yard and Government departments.
It aims to "celebrate" gays and their lifestyles and end an alleged "silence" about homosexual issues in schools.
Metropolitan Police Chief Sir Ian Blair approved the use of a police headquarters in West London for a reception of LGBT History Month campaigners in November.
The history month also has the support of Education Secretary Ruth Kelly. Her department is understood to be contributing £20,000 towards it.
The Metropolitan Police Authority has given £3,125 to the history month. The Department of Health is also a sponsor.
Schools do not have to adopt the recommendations of LGBT History Month. But support from the Department for Education and the Met provides respectability. This will put pressure on heads to take notice of the event.
"Peddling poison"
Author Lynette Burrows accused organisers of "peddling poison" and distorting history.
Mrs Burrows, from Cambridge, was warned by a Scotland Yard officer last month of being involved in a "homophobic incident" after criticising gay adoption on a BBC programme.
She added: "The police have no business getting involved in this. It is as if the Archbishop of Canterbury were to launch a crimebusting campaign."
Days after she was warned, the Mail revealed that a Christian couple in Lancashire were told by police they were "walking on eggshells" after complaining to their council about its gay rights policies.
Sir Ian has promoted gay rights since becoming the Met's chief. He has appointed 24 diversity advisers on £35,000-a-year salaries and spoken at gay events.
The LGBT History Month is in February. It recommends lessons for primary school pupils that include asking children to repeat sexual and swear words and write them on a blackboard.
Pupils are then asked to discuss the real meaning of the word.
For older pupils, there are lessons in "gender variance".
The lessons claim "people are not always simply male or female" and that one in 100 people are affected by "intersex variations".
The campaign also aims to identify homosexuals from history to provide role models. But organisers say where evidence of homosexuality is missing teachers should still label figures as gay.
Publicity material for the campaign said: "History has conspired to keep our lives hidden.
"Often in correcting this we rely to some degree on circumstantial evidence."
Shakespeare outed
Among figures labelled gay is Shakespeare, of whom it is said: "It seems likely that some of the greatest love poems in the English language were written by one man to another."
The campaign is run by activists linked to the Schools Out organisation of homosexual teachers.
One organiser, Sue Sanders, a lesbian activist who works as a diversity teacher for the Metropolitan Police, said: "Schools have been completely silent on this issue.
"This will encourage people to start looking more closely at the white, male, heterosexual way in which history is presented to us." Another organiser, Paul Patrick, is a former teacher who has contributed to the Trotskyist Socialist Worker newspaper.
A spokesman for the Met said: "Engaging with communities is not optional but a clear business reality upon which the successful policing of London depends.
"Events like this are an opportunity to increase the trust and confidence of the LGBT community in the police."
They're after our children ping.
In the grand scheme of things British, how important is "gay history" compared to, say, the Magna Carta or the battle of Trafalgar?
"introduce pupils to sexual and swear words."
Friggen brits
Now they are teaching the swear words we would get our mouths wash out with soap for.
"Sir Ian has promoted gay rights since becoming the Met's chief. He has appointed 24 diversity advisers on £35,000-a-year salaries and spoken at gay events."

Beyond belief!
This must be a preemptive sensatizing with the expectation of some significant closet outings.
PLEEZE NOT WINSTON CHURCHILL!
...reading.
And when the Islamic Radicals increase their raids in England
the LGBT Supporters will be the first to lose their heads
HOMESCHOOL!
> The organisers also want historical figures labelled homosexual - even if there is no evidence they were gay.
OK. How's about these guys:
Jack the Ripper
Oswald Mosley
Al Capone
Adolf Hitler
Joe Stalin
Pol Pot
Mohammad
Hey, why not...
The clothes they wore were FABULOUS!!............
Shakespeare was married to Anne Hathaway wrote most of his poetry to her, had children, etc etc. Now he is outed as Gay. I have never seen evidence for that. I hate this nonsense it is the same crap that got Richard the LionHeart outed because he slept in the same bed with a man (common medieval practice in no way sexual) and because he wrote about his love for another man (another common medieval practice and not an expression of sexual love).
Okay.
Jack the Ripper? Gay.
Burke and Hare? Leather boys of a longstanding relationship.
Sweeney Todd? Big maneating sissy boy.
Lord Haw Haw? Made all his broadcasts from Berlin in drag.
Oscar Wilde? Fathered children with different mothers from Edinburgh to Brighton, and was ghostwritten by a Frenchman.
This is fun. History relaly comes alive when you can rewrite it at will!
It would be cold day in Hell before I would submit my child to this sexual socialization program. We never used sexually explicit swear words or references in my home.
I do not doubt that **Namba** endorses this program.
Oh, didn't you know? Of course, he was a cross-dresser. And everyone knows about Admiral Lord Nelson(buggery on the high seas...) Not to mention Douglas Bader with his kinky missing legs engaging in same-sex S&M. Queen Elizabeth? Lesbian. Palace guards? Flaming... Charles? Need you ask? Every member of SAS...of course...the manly exterior is just a front for the feminine side of every SAS agent...
Kind of reminds me of the Team America takeoff on "Rent" where everyone has AIDS...
add this longer read to this story

Which does not, if true, make Shakespeare gay. This is a classic literary mystery - who was the "W.H." to whom Shakespeare dedicated the Sonnets in question?
It could, of course, be worse - I read a very plausible argument that "W.H." was one William Hughes, a boy actor who played Shakespeare's female roles, and who was stolen away not by another lover but by another acting company. When NAMBLA gets hold of that one you'll be reading that old Will was a pedophile as well. He isn't, of course, around to defend himself.
Franklin and Adams shared a bed on occasion...like you said, things were a bit different back then.
In Moby Dick (maybe bad example...:)-
"I told him that I never liked to sleep two in a bed; that if I should ever do so, it would depend upon who the harpooneer might be, and that if he (the landlord) really had no other place for me, and the harpooneer was not decidedly objectionable, why rather than wander further about a strange town on so bitter a night, I would put up with the half of any decent man's blanket."
Holy cow. Why is Scotland Yard (!) involved in this?
As bad as things have gotten here, Britain is FAR worse.
But tell that to Gwynneth.
Okay, here's a famous one:
Home schooling bump.

*At least Elton became a respectable "married" man when he finally married his "man." Have you noticed how upsidedown the world has become? Civil rights for non-citizen terrorists? If the PEOPLE give up and give in, we are upsidedown.
Truly disgusting! What next, examples of necrophilia or bestiality?
Jeez, that looked like it was the intro to "Brokeback Ocean"
Homosexual Agenda Mega Barf Ping.
No, it's not nauseating because of lurid details. It's stuffed with horrible examples of the government promotion of not only pro-homosexual propaganda but outright psychotic lies. But I repeat myself.
And lest anyone thinks, "Oh, that's England. Won't happen here" - the promoters of the "gay" agenda know no national boundaries. They're pushing all over the globe, and we haven't seen the end of their goals yet. They are after children to swell their ranks ("fresh meat") and raise up nice obedient tax paying supporters of their agenda.
Note how the 24 "diversity whatevers" the police hired are pulling goodly salaries. This tells us that if the government is not supporting crap, it's not going to fly. Reduce gov't spending to the bare essentials and many social problems will wither on the vine.
Freepmail me and DirtyHarryY2K if you want on/off this pinglist.
One kid sez to the other "I'd like to make that gay history."
It's probably easier to remember than biblical history. There's not a lot of "begats".
I am astonished by the lies that the homosexuals tell. Another sign they are not of sound mind if they believe them.
With the axes of Jihadists hanging over their heads, and with the birth-to-death rates predicting the loss of the UK by default, what's the most pressing need onthe UK agenda? Promoting disease and death-causing insanity. The Brits are sleepwalking to their doom.
I learned all my "sexual and swear words" in school, but schools shouldn't be sponsoring this actively.
Back in the early '70s, when I was in fifth grade, we had sex ed, and in the first class the teacher asked us to tell her the words we'd heard on the playground describing "private parts."
Same evil. Same methods. Just earlier and earlier.
We've just got to face it people. It's our destiny. While alive we are conservative, Republican voting and mentally healthy (straight). When we die we become liberal, democrat voting and mentally diseased (gay).
World 'leaders' have become so arrogant that they think He won't do it again. They are sadly mistaken. Just look what's happening in the world today, and it's not going to get any better.
I read something weird about Sodom and Gomorrah the other day. A left-winger wrote that the sin God was punishing there was not homosexual behavior (and gang rape), but rather bad hospitality toward guests! The argument was that hospitality toward strangers and travelers in the ancient Middle East was a strong custom that had to be respected and God punished the cities for being inhospitable. Now, I suppose homosexual gang rape is extremely poor manners, but I believe God cares more about the deeper sin.
Have you ever heard that argument before? Amazing!
1. The lack of moral fiber. When 7 year olds are being taught about homosexuality, something is wrong. The church and morality are absent.
2. Taxpayer money is easily wasted on this nonsense to the tune of £23,000. Wasteful government spending by bureaucrats goes unpunished. Even the nearly £500 million Scotish parliment, was the focus of some grumbling and complaining, but not ONE bureaucrat was punished.
3. The police department can sponsor this "event" that it has no business spending its money on. Another indication of no oversight.
4. The police can waste £840,000 on "diversity advisors." Tax revenue is wasted on useless do-nothing positions. Why does a diversity advisor do? Why do you need 24 at £35,000 each. A graduate engineer only makes about £21,000 and the GDP/capita is about £12,000. About 1 in 4 Britians are employed by the government, i.e. they are overhead.
5. Open Communist ties are ignored. Remember #26 of the 1963 communist goals.... Present Homosexuality, degeneracy, and promiscuity as "normal, natural, and healthy".
Have you ever heard that argument before? Amazing!
That's a first. LOL It was definitely over homosexual behavior/rape and every other kind of sexual perversion known to mankind.
