‘Sex box’ for Swiss kindergarteners has genitalia toys: will teach sexuality is pleasurable

BASEL, August 25, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Kindergarten children in Basel, Switzerland will be presented this year with fabric models of human genitalia in a “sex box” to teach them that “contacting body parts can be pleasurable.”

The kit for teachers to give sex-education lessons to primary school children uses models and recommends having children massage each other or to rub themselves with warm sand bags, accompanied by soft music, according to The Local, a Swiss newspaper in English.

“Children should be encouraged to develop and experience their sexuality in a pleasurable way,” Daniel Schneider, a deputy kindergarten rector for Basel who helped develop the sex ed curriculum along with experts, had said earlier this year.

He added, “It’s important that they learn to say no if they don’t want to be touched in a certain area.”

Education officials who have reportedly been flooded with over 3000 complaints from outraged parents have agreed to change the program’s name, but will do nothing to stop the materials from being distributed in schools, according to The Local.

Christoph Eymann, Basel education minister and member of the liberal democrat party (LDP), told the paper SonntagsBlick, “It was no doubt stupid to call it a ‘sex box’ – we will change that.

“But we will stick to our goal: to get across to children that sexuality is something natural. Without forcing anything upon them or taking anything away from their parents.”

Eymann said he understood that one line in the program, “touching can be enjoyed heartily,” could be misconstrued, but added, “It is not about ‘touch me, feel me.’

“We want to tell the children that there is contact that they may find pleasurable, but some that they should say ‘no’ to. Kids can unfortunately can become victims of sexual violence already at playschool age.”

Children should ideally be taught about sex at home, Eymann said, but since children lived in an “oversexualised society” in which pornography can be reached by young children through the internet, education officials need to respond to the realities of the day.

“Some primary school children,” he said, “know the TV schedule until 2am. We would like to offer these children firm support, which is often not available in the family. The box is only an aid. I trust the teachers to approach the material with care.”

Eymann has opposed requests from parents to exempt their children from the lessons, saying the government needs to use the schools to have unrestricted access to children.

“Primary school may be the only big audience that our society has,” he said. “The shared values that it teaches are very important. I would definitely like to keep this. The explanatory lesson can be portrayed in a way that doesn’t offend.”

Pro-family leaders in Europe have expressed their horror at the idea of presenting five year-old children with the program.

Daniel Trappitsch of the Citizens for Citizens association called the idea a “catastrophic development.” “Sex education, sure, but it shouldn’t been done this early and it certainly shouldn’t be obligatory,” he said. His group said they would fight the proposal.

“It is like homosexuals and pedophiles and just plain weirdos have taken over the education of the innocent children.”

They are also known as Leftists!

Couple this with the push by shrinks to ‘normalize’ pedophilia, and it appears that children are now the latest targets for sexual perverts (having now normalized gayness).

If I were livestock, I’d be looking over my shoulder.

Keep in mind that this is just the beginning of even more worse things to come.

Some legacy Ulrich Zwingli has left. Luther was right, “would that his ideas had perished with him!”

Leftists pushing sex on children is the moral equivalent of Tobacco Companies pushing candy cigarettes on them

Candy cigarettes only rot their teeth. Those teachers are out to rot their minds. Government sanctioned CHILD ABUSE!

I know this whole thing is disgusting and serious.....

but I found it hilarious that these so called educators want to “teach them that “contacting body parts can be pleasurable.”
DUH!

Aren’t we trying to teach children, that while sex may be pleasurable, we try to restrain ourselves and to limit sex to appropriate situations, eg, marriage???

Oh, how narrow-minded of you! LOL!

Actually, I’ve never known anyone who had to be taught that “contacting body parts can be pleasurable.” Who needs lessons?

will teach sexuality is pleasurable

Gee, I must have been a lot brighter than most Swiss children because I was able to figure that out all by myself!

But seriously, what is proposed looks to me as nothing more than an attempt to inculcate young children with sexual activity... At the outset, they propose that it's just for children to perform these acts on each other, but this has to be nothing more than a plan to prepare young children for pedophiles.

Am I the only one here that thinks masturbation comes naturally? Who needs a “sex box”??

Sexuality IS something natural. It is also something the government should never be put in charge of. Whether teaching or otherwise. Explaining the birds and the bees should be a PARENTS job as that is the only way to ensure that YOUR morals are taught and not some degenerate in governments morals.

They pull this in my kids schools and someone will bleed for it...

These leftist idiots don't seem to realize the brave New World was a freaking WARNING, not a how-to manual.

Aldous Huxley's brother was Sir Julian Huxley. Julian was the co-founder of the World Wildlife Fund, the International Humanist and Ethical Union and, most famously, the first Director-General of UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. Julian gave his brother all the inside plans drawn up by the Globalists at the UN how they would alter and abolish Western Civilization and what the replacement New World Order society would look it. With that info Aldous wrote the how-to-manual called Brave New World. That manual has been followed to a tee.

So this fiend deplores that children may be exposed to pornography, so he's doing it first? Direct molestation? Note this horrible statement:

Eymann has opposed requests from parents to exempt their children from the lessons, saying the government needs to use the schools to have unrestricted access to children.

Nothing more than Brave New World. They want them earlier and earlier. There are many in our gov who want exactly the same thing, they've said so. I remember when Klinton got elected his head of the Dept of Education made statements that he wanted public schools to start at IIRC 6 months of age, and to run 7 days a week, 12 hours a day. I remember reading that in the Sacramento Bee.

There have been many articles about this just in the last couple of weeks. Oh, they're pushing to normalize pedophilia fast and furiously.
