Wisconsin schools introduce masturbation in fourth grade, everything else by sixth
Wisconsin Reporter ^ | August 24, 2013 | Ryan Exvall

MADISON – Parents, do you know your elementary school’s masturbation education policy?

OLD ENOUGH?: Some Wisconsin school districts have authorized sexual education, including topics such as masturbation, at elementary schools.

OLD ENOUGH?: Some Wisconsin school districts have authorized sexual education, including topics such as masturbation, at elementary schools.

The Oak Creek School District developed a booklet for parents of elementary students to help them “understand how staff and outside resource people will handle these sensitive topics.”

Sensitive topics, indeed.

The elementary school booklet covers masturbation, sexual intercourse, sexual orientation, abortion and contraception.

The booklet is a complement to the Human Growth and Development curriculum that takes various forms throughout public school districts across the state.

It’s unclear how prevalent the Human Growth and Development curriculum is throughout the state. However, a 2012 law changed several requirements of school districts that do offer Human Growth and Development.

Those changes include:

Other topics, such as masturbation, are open to the school board’s discretion.

In Oak Creek, parents can pick up the booklet at school during registration, according to Sara Burmeister, the school district superintendent. Parents also are sent letters before specific topics are taught and can opt their children out of the curriculum, though Burmeister says that rarely happens.

School boards, too, can opt not to offer Human Growth and Development.

When it comes to a grade-schooler’s questions about masturbation, staff will first define the term “the stimulation of one’s own genitals for the purpose of achieving sexual pleasure.”

Staff, though, are advised not to answer questions of personal sexual experience.

The handbook also directs staff to explain that some people masturbate and some do not. And encourages staff to “help students understand that attitudes toward masturbation may be a strong part of family values and beliefs and opinions often vary.”

Students, according to the handbook, will “be encouraged to talk to parents in order to help them develop their own values and beliefs about masturbation.”

Burmeister said the language in the booklet doesn’t mean masturbation will be discussed with or taught to students of any grade level. Staff can decide whether they should answer a child’s questions on masturbation and other sensitive topics.

“All it does is say this is how we define these terms at the appropriate grade level when it comes up,” she said. “So parents will know if their kid asks ‘What is this?’ parents will know how our committee defines the terms as we would use them in the schools. Sometimes kids are too young and you can say to them, and I know I did with my kids, ‘That’s something you don’t have to worry about now.’”

“We are more of a conservative community,” she said.

In the McFarland School District, in addition to similar policies for discussing masturbation, an objective for third graders is to discuss suicide.

A sixth-grade objective is to “define sexual intercourse, including oral and anal intercourse.”

McFarland school officials did not return calls from Wisconsin Reporter.

How much discretion should elementary schools and school boards have regarding teaching about sexually related topics?

Is this something the schools should teach, or would you prefer the alternative: “Go ask your parents”?

Look at the news stories about “transgender” kids, or how they gush over some minor child proclaiming their “sexual orientation” on YouTube...

And if a normal (heterosexual) kid got on YT and proclaimed his/her normalcy as a heterosexual, the Left, the "news" media and the sex-baiters (similar to the race-baiters) would decry that as being "hateful" and mean-spirited" and "offensive" to homos. Too bad. Tough shi.........

Excuse me, but doesn’t it seem like the Trayvons etc all seem to definitely have understood all the sex Ed they get, but not so much the English, Math, and History?

At that age, I was learning cursive and boys had cooties.

Nevermind how this will be destroying childhood but it'll bring more false molestation charges against teachers.

Another stolen terminology, there is no such thing as anal intercourse, it is anal penetration.

Well according to Merriam-Webster, "intercourse" is defined as follows:

in·ter·course Definition of INTERCOURSE

1: connection or dealings between persons or groups

2: exchange especially of thoughts or feelings : communion

3: physical sexual contact between individuals that involves the genitalia of at least one person ; especially : sexual intercourse 1

Origin of INTERCOURSE
Middle English intercurse, probably from Middle French entrecours, from Medieval Latin intercursus, from Latin, act of running between, from intercurrere to run between, from inter- + currere to run — more at car First Known Use: 15th century

If they teach it with the same end result as they get with other courses, the kids will be doing it wrong.

Mike, in 4th grade, we still jumped rope, swung the hoola hoop and played hop scotch. When is the last time you saw kids in your neighborhood, jumping rope?

I hope for a plague and a bad plague even if I have to suffer the consequences. Don’t want to live in the world as it is now anyway.

It's coming ... The generation that killed its children will in turn be killed by its own children.

I am not in quite such a dark mood as earlier and hope God spares his followers the worst of it.

True, you don't see it everyday, but not unknown in our trailer park. Our kids still kept their jumping ropes up until a couple years ago. Even today there are hula hoops just outside the back door.

3: physical sexual contact between individuals that involves the genitalia of at least one person ; especially : sexual intercourse 1 Only one person is necessary? I would argue the anus is not gentilia according to the dictionary: genitals or genitalia (ˈdʒɛnɪt ə lz, ˌdʒɛnɪˈteɪlɪə, -ˈteɪljə) — pl n the sexual organs; the testicles and penis of a male or the labia, clitoris, and vagina of a femaleRelated:

I would submit that anal sex (which btw is by no means an exclusively homosexual practice) meets the submitted dictionary definition of intercourse, to wit:

physical sexual contact between individuals that involves the genitalia of at least one person

“Didn’t happen before Scott Walker.
Thanks for teaching our kids to rape, Scott.”

My first thought as well. Where is the governor?

I expect we’ll hear from him immediately; silence would signal his approval.

“Why Johnny Can’t Read.” He’s too busy doin’ OTHER stuff!

What a messed up world we’re living in. If you have a choice, get your kids into private school or homeschool.

And I thought it was bad enough when MY kids were coming up and I had to de-program them EVERY DAMN DAY over dinner...together as a FAMILY (also, a strange concept to many!)

This is a flashing red siren alert of a society riddled with spiritual and moral cancer. No sane person should allow their children in public school if there is even the slightest chance of this type of child molesting degeneracy being even hinted at. Masturbation for 3rd or 4th graders? Sodomy for 6th graders? Next up will be hands on demonstrations by the staff and "outside resource people" - and who the hell are they, anyway? People from the local homo bath house and Planned Parenthood, or maybe the local NAMBLA chapter?

The collapse can't be very far away. Anyone wanting on/off any of my ping lists, freepmail me.

Anal sodomy used to be a crime and thus it should still be.

Of course modern dictionaries adjust their definitions to suit the propaganda of the day.

Anal sodomy used to be consdered a crime against nature, and indeed it is. The rectum tissue is very thin, easily tears, and was not designed for shoving anything in it. Unlike the female genitals, which were made for the purpose. Anyone practicing anal sodomy on the receiving end will suffer health damage - physical damage to the excretory organ, and also immune damage, as the semen will invariable get into the blood stream via small (or large) tears in the lower intestinal tract walls, and since the colon is designed to absorbe water from the stool, it easily absorbs the semen, which the body regards as a foreign protein, thus intitiating an immune response.

Multiply this many times and you have a damaged immune system.

Plus it’s hard to imagine how anyone could “like” it unless they are drunk, drugged, or a pervert.
