Positively Sexualizing our Teens? [Librarians, the ALA, and the CPS]
Laigle's Forum: Christian Conservative Activist ^ | 6/14/2006 | Milla Kette

Posted on 06/15/2006 8:20:36 PM PDT by plan2succeed.org

The Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA) is a division of the American Library Association that likes to offer sexual advice for teens (check: Healthy Relationships for Teens). One of the web sites they recommend (under Resources for Teens: Sexuality and Sexual Behavior) is the Coalition for Positive Sexuality. The organization can be also found at Wikipedia. Parents of teens, meet the CPS. It was designed for “teens who are sexually active now or just thinking about having sex.” So, next time you talk to your teen about sex, tell him to “Just Say Yes”:

Just Say Yes is about having a positive attitude towards sexuality -- gay, straight, bisexual or whatever. It's about saying "yes" to sex you do want, and "no" to sex you don't. It says there's nothing wrong with you if you decide to have sex, and nothing wrong with you if you decide not to. (Is it just me, or did you also notice they start with “gay”? And why is there no link to “whatever”?)

Let’s be a bit more explanatory, shall we?

Women have sex with women, men have sex with men, women have sex with men –and sometimes the best sex is with yourself! (They did it again!)

And you have a thing or two to learn, Pa and Ma. Heterosexuals “feel sexual and/or romantic attraction mostly to people of the other sex” (bold emphasis added). The CPS is also concerned with your kids’ health: “oral sex is licking, sucking, biting (not too hard, please!) your partner's thang.” See? Your kids will deal very gently with their partner’s… “thang”. Now, does your teen know what BDSM is? Do not worry: our good natured friends from CPS explain:

BDSM is a combination of three terms: BD (Bondage & Discipline), DS (Dominance & Submission), and SM (Sadism & Masochism). BDSM includes a wide range of activities involving safe, sane, consensual playing with erotic power. BDSM is NOT about abuse. Everyone involved understands and plays by the rule (bold emphasis added).

OK, but what about just good ordinary “intercourse”?

Intercourse is when something (a dick, finger, dildo, cucumber, whatever) penetrates your butt, which is ANAL SEX, or your vagina, which is VAGINAL SEX. Both women and men can enjoy anal intercourse (bold emphasis added). (Anal fixation, anyone?)

More useful advice for teens from these very thoughtful people:

- get into role play (for instance, tie someone up and pleasure them) ...

- look at sexy pictures and videos ...

- make up or act out fantasies, talk dirty, dress up, strip down, or cross-dress (dressing in the clothes of the other gender) ...

- use cock rings, nipple clamps (or clothespins), or vibrators on your own or someone else's body ...

- cum on someone's belly, back, feet, chest –instead of in them ...

- play with your own or someone else's ass or vagina, put your fingers, dildoes, vegetables, or buttplugs into them.

So, next time they decide to experiment sexually, don’t send your teens out to the world ignorant. Let them read the CPS Glossary!

And if that inconvenience happens –you know, like pregnancy— and your daughter, like “can't handle having a baby right now,” never mind: she can, like count on abortion. Like totally! And don’t let her forget: “it's harder to get an abortion after 3 months, so get help soon!” Like stat!

Oh, and if your teens are addicted they “can still protect themselves from HIV. The best thing to do is to USE A CLEAN NEEDLE AND WORKS (cotton, cooker, spoon, etc.) EVERY TIME!” No clean needles on sight? Don’t worry, man: check the CPS resources!

A friend of mine [That would be D.Laigle] was so shocked with the site, he decided to pass for a 14 year-old girl and wrote them an E-mail. He wrote that for her parents she was “too young to even think about having sex” and asked what age was the right one to start. The answer came from (children’s Yoga teacher) Andrea Abrams Creel: “There is no ‘right’ time to have sex. However, having sex takes a lot of responsibility. […] you have to be responsible for preventing pregnancy and STDs. That means using a condom EVERY time you have sex, going to the doctor regularly to get checkups and tested for STDs, discussing birth control options with your doctor -and making sure you use your birth control consistently and correctly, and discussing previous sex partners and STD testing with your boyfriend. If you don't feel comfortable doing ALL of these things, then you probably aren't ready to have sex” (bold emphasis added).

Andrea –who was aware she was advising a minor— did not hesitate: “Having sex is a very big step, and it should be something that YOU want to do”! The girl mentioned her plan to have sex with an 18 year-old boyfriend. The advice came: “Many states have laws that say it is illegal for someone over 18 to have sex with someone who is not an adult. The laws are different in each state -in some states you have to be 16, other states 14. […] If it is illegal in your state and your boyfriend gets caught, he could go to jail. This website can tell you the laws in your state: http://www.ageofconsent.com/.” Nowhere does Andrea mention the minor’s parents, but “a trusted adult.”

The second letter my friend sent, Andrea realized she was dealing with an adult male. Her advice changed: “It might be a good idea to talk about these things with an adult who you trust such as a clergy member, a teacher, or guidance counselor.” And according to Andrea, “No one has the right to make you feel uncomfortable or do things that invade your privacy.” In short, parents, the “right to privacy” applies to your kids and supersedes your authority –like, don’t even think about, like, telling your kids what to do.

In a series of E-mail exchanges with me, Andrea (*) explained that butt, cum and dick “are not vulgar words [but] names of body parts and sexual identity.” These “are generally the words used in the medical sphere.” Teens should have access to “accurate and comprehensive information about how their body works and about sex.” “CPS is designed as an informational source for teens, not parents, so the information we give is geared towards that age group.” But “if parents are unfamiliar with the information because they were not given comprehensive sex education as teens, they can use the site to educate themselves as well.” And “a teen who feels they cannot discuss this information with their parents and/or does not receive comprehensive sex education in their school would be thankful to have this information available to them.” How thoughtful.

Before leaving the CPS web site, do a Search on “abstinence.” You will learn that it is ineffective and “that there are a bunch of very conservative and fanatically religious people who are spreading lies about safe sex” (bold emphasis added).

You can buy products from CPS to help them “continue providing teens with candid sex education materials” –the poster above will certainly inspire your teenage daughter!

(*) In her own words: I have a B.A. in psychology, and have taken several graduate courses both at Boston University and George Washington University in Adolescent Development, Reproductive Health, and Sex, Culture, and Development. I have attended several conferences hosted by amfAR and the APHA regarding reproductive health, HIV/AIDS, and adolescent development. In addition, I work with the Uniformed Services University to help train medical students on how to properly counsel and treat sexually active adolescents.

This is shocking even to SafeLibraries.org. Read Positively Sexualizing our Teens? to see all the links and the graphic that's graphic, but even we were shocked to see the ALA section called YALSA recommending a web site for children so unbelievably unbelievable that you should read Milla Kette's article yourselves. Note, we provide Milla Kette with free space on the Internet but we do not otherwise have any input or control as to the content of Grassroots American Values.

Yuck. I need a shower after reading that.

And about the street terms that are "words generally used in the medical sphere"... I can never remember my doctor asking me about the condition of my son's "d#ck".

Just shows how incredibly immature these clowns are.

Just the kind of crap that I have come to expect from an organ of the ALA. The ALA is a Marxist organisation (culturally and otherwise).

I'm not sure it's immaturity. I think it's more along the lines on the intentional sexualization of children. And isn't it nice that librarians point them in this direction. I guess the author's point is, given the ALA's actions, how could one argue that they are not sexualizing children.

Wow... the local library where I grew up used to have pamphlets about how to keep yourself safe from rape (emphasizing staying in well-lit public areas with a group of friends), and something like "100 Ways to Say 'I Love You' (Without 'Doing It')".

Even my college health center didn't pass out crap like this - and I went to a public liberal arts college!

I know. It really is unbelievable, but there it is. Right on the ALA's web site. Right there for all to see.

Our libraries are not the safe, fun places that they used to be. In my town, we had a sex-offender arrested due to a patron contacting police. The man was looking at pornography on the library's computers and leering at young girls sitting at nearby computers.

nuts.

the thing is, people should figure out sexuality on their own as they develop. our society is really rushing teens and children into sexuality, that is a tragedy.

yeah, teens will always have sex. that is reality. that is human. yes we should teach people to make better choices and to consider the possible results of their actions.

this is just sad.

Bringing sex to the schools/libraries. First undermining the parents decisions for their children, then indoctrinating young teens with this kind of coercive suggestioning that "You can say YES to sex!!!!", and then incredulously the demonstrations with sex toys!!!! What next, will this twisted group be advocating simulated sex with adolescents as some perverse safe sex agenda?

Upon closer inspection it's not hard to reveal the nature of this beast. Behind the curtain is a predominantly gay/lesbian organization brimming in hardcore feminism.

Here's a lovely male-bashing poster used to recruit the young and future feminists out there in schools.

"Every guy is a potential threat as long as society tolerates "men behaving badly"."

There they go blaming society, when they themselves are the perpetrators in what they teach that corrupts society in itself. It's easy to see how this filth is bred/spread among this kind of mentality.

This is the kind of evil that makes a moral person look forward to the afterlife (myself included).

If my kid is addicted to cigarrettes, does CPS provide information on how to smoke safely? What if my kid likes to 'light one up' after sex. Does CPS have information on how to do that? Is it careful to remain value neutral about the sexual preferences of smokers?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Shalom.

Sex isn't that hard to figure out. It doesn't take years of experimentation or self-searching. If you're a boy, you have sex with your wife. If you're a girl, you have sex with your husband. Parents teach these truths to their children if they love them. They don't "hope they figure it out."

Shalom.

What would happen if a class action suit were brought against these idiots for contributing to the delinquency, and corruption of, minors to say nothing of criminal charges?

It is this kind of nonsense that has turned me against the ALA. Whenever I get their membership letters, I throw them in the trash. There are better things to do with $75 than subsidize anti-Christian filth.

You say it's a tragedy. To us, yes. To the ones sexualizing our children, this is their goal, a cause for celebration, a further spreading of their agenda, their ultimate goal.

You said, "indoctrinating young teens." The ALA sexualizes preteens as well -- see Porn Pushers - The ALA and Looking For Alaska - One Example of How the ALA Pushes Porn On Children. The ALA's top award for the best book of 2006 for children as young as 12 includes oral sex, porn movies, and more. We've included the words too so you can decide your yourselves.

And don't you love the argument that the oral sex shouldn't be taken out of context? In what context then should 12 years olds be taught about oral sex and porn movies?

Look, here's a new story with video about a teacher arrested for displaying to children the same kind of material librarians make available to children everyday: http://wavy.com/Global/story.asp?S=5035694 Teacher Arrested for Distributing Obscene Material -- perhaps the teacher should get set free and the ALA should get arrested -- kind of like a user (teacher) / dealer (ALA) relationship?
