Outraged parents say a New York middle school instructed young female students to ask one another for a lesbian kiss and boys learned how to spot young sluts in an anti-bullying presentation on gender identity and sexual orientation, according to Fox News Todd Starnes.
According to Starnes Report, the children attended a special April 11 health class taught by college students at Linden Avenue Middle School in Red Hook, N.Y. Parents say they were not notified of the presentation.
The students were introduced to terms such as pansexual and genderqueer.
Some of the young female students said they were told it was common for 14-year-old girls to have sex and their parents couldnt stop them.
Mandy Coon, a mother of an eighth-grade student said, I am furious. I am her parent. Where does anyone get the right to tell her that its OK for her to have sex?
According to Fox News, Coon said her daughter was distressed by the presentation and wondered why shed been required to ask another girl to kiss her.
She told me, Mom, we all get teased and picked on enough now Im going to be called a lesbian because I had to ask another girl if I could kiss her, Coon said.
According to the mother, the school said the lesson was meant to teach girls boundaries and how to say no.
They also picked two girls to stand in front of the class and pretend they were lesbians on a date, Coons said.
The Poughkeepsie Journal reported that Red Hook Central School District Superintendent Paul Finch said the class focused on improving culture, relationships, communication and self-perceptions.

Progressivism means the elimination of family and the authority of parents completely. MSNBC was advancing the 'theory' that our kids are not going to be your kids anymore so the government can brainwash them all they want and there won't be a thing that you or anyone can do about it. This is the culture that the lunatic liberals are promoting. In certain European countries the kids are basically property of the state and not children of the parents and that is what this phony president Obama and his entourage are promoting for this country.
welcome to Babylon
Parent, I am furious. I am her parent. Where does anyone get the right to tell her that its OK for her to have sex?
Demolshovik view, “Weve always had kind of a private notion of children. ‘Your kid is yours and totally your responsibility.’ So long as this retrograde conception prevails, well never spend enough money on children. We have to break through, our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their families.
Pappy, I just did a second search for this other article and nothing showed up.
Search on the word “lessons”. That’s what I did
“Uhhhhhh, boys ... next week it’s your turn. And ... uhhhhh ... it’s not going to be pleasant ... because, well ... just wait and see ...”
Forcing girls to kiss each other sounds very, very illegal. Someone should end up in jail.
the only way to survive bullies....is to SURVIVE BULLIES.
kids will never get tough unless they GET TOUGH.
it is natures way of separating the wheat from the chaff.
As far as the Progressives and Nanny staters protecting everyone from everything...IT DONT WORK...it weakens the country there Mr/Mrs/Mizzz Percy Dovetonsils
Lesbian Kiss?
Do they have their own secret handshake also?
Teach boys how to spot sluts?
In my day, boys had pretty good radar in picking out the sluts - But the majority didn’t know what they had found.
.
Like the guy who walked up to most every woman he saw and asked her to go to bed with him.
His buddy observed him getting many slaps across the face.
When questioned, the ‘asker’ said “You would be surprised how many DON’T slap me and take me up on it”.
So many courses and ‘they’ got on me for taking typing in my Junior Year of HS.....Course only me and 4 other ‘smart ass’ boys in the class of ‘57 that had typing under their belt. SMART MOVE, but the ‘powers that be’ were reluctant at the time - especially with only 32 in the ‘graduating class’, 5 was a good percentage.
Still pretty ridiculous - and hard to see how that fits into an 'anti-bullying' presentation ...
The college that provided the instructors for this is Bard College which is apparently liberal even by today’s standards.
Indeed.
Because I was an “A” Student, and gifted in both music and the visual arts (I didn’t plan that...it wasn’t my fault! LOL) I was bullied MERCILESSLY from the 9th grade onward.
I was cornered in the locker room and attacked by several girls who had taken pins from sewing class.
I was “BOOED” by my entire Class when I went up to get my diploma.
I was beat up by two male football players.
Guess what.
I SURVIVED.
And now I am a FReeper.
How about schools get out of social propaganda, and start teaching kids how to work?
As in, gain a real job. Do something productive.
This is absurd.
I figured this “anti-bullying” stuff was part of a larger more sinister agenda.
I was a fat kid. I was picked on at school. I was picked on during baseball games. I was picked on by my brothers. 24/7 during the summer months.
One day in 9th grade, I was getting picked on by an upper class men hockey player. He pushed me. I pushed back, and by mistake I stepped on one of his shoelaces. He went crashing backwards and hit his head on the concrete floor.
I said something like, “ leave me the f alone.”
He was out cold.
Now, he and I knew what happened. Neither one of us ever said anything about it.
No one ever picked on me again.
Because the US school system is focused on preparing students for jobs on a farm or in a factory. Guess what: there are no farms or factories anymore. That is why there is so much focus on college.
Start teaching kids plumbing, electrical work, auto mechanics. But no...everyone is going to be a “knowledge” worker.
Imagine having that photo show up the rest of your life every time someone does a background check.
I’m glad some people still have the ability to get outrages. Nothing will come of the outrage, but it feels good anyway.
