Republican removes consent topic from Sex Ed

[Marilyn MonHoe 11,011]

A Republican senator detailed changes to a contentious sex education bill on Monday, including deletion of a proposed requirement for K-12 schools to teach about consent.

The last-minute edits to Senate Bill 442 were announced during a 13-minute conference committee meeting. Public testimony was allowed but none was provided.

The conference committee proposal had not been signed and officially approved as of Monday evening, however, meaning the bill’s provisions could still change.

Earlier versions of the legislation required any materials used to teach “human sexuality” for grades 4-12 be approved by a school board and include instruction on “the importance of consent to sexual activity.”

Byrne said he preferred to let school boards decide if local curricula include topics on consent.

“(Teaching about consent) can still happen. We’re just not going to require that in this bill,” he said. “This is a sensitive subject for many. I believe it may be different thoughts in different communities, and … this leaves, for the most part, local control on making those decisions.”

Brief discussion among lawmakers drew continued concerns from House and Senate Democrats on the committee.

“I don’t understand how we could possibly not agree to teach that as part of human sexuality,” said Rep. Tonya Pfaff, D-Terre Haute. “For consent, it protects both boy and girl — man and woman. We are talking about teenagers that sometimes don’t learn that they can say no.”

The introduction of sex education usually starts in the fourth grade, according to state guidelines. But Indiana does not require the course in schools. Instead, it only mandates that schools teach lessons on HIV and AIDS. Schools that do teach sex education are expected to focus on abstinence.

Republicans are some of the most repugnant and deplorable human beings on this planet.

This is absolutely despicable and disgusting. 
 

 

At the Folsom St Fair, the adult kink/bondage event, they had banners at the entrance that say “Gear is not consent. Nudity is not consent.” Just because I am dressed like a heaux doesn’t give anyone a right to touch me, how is that such a hard concept for people?

 

I know I am exaggerating, but it’s frightening to think these morons want to eliminate consent while also banning abortion. 
 

Now I see why many incels support this party.

This part is just… no words. A sensitive subject? NO MEANS NO! And everyone regardless of community needs to know that.

they think kids are gonna have more sex if you teach them about consent rather than just abstinence. Which is....idk, weirdly naive. Teenagers will still be having sex.

You aren't exaggerating; that thought is terrifying. They could wave a banner that says "We support rape" and people would still support them. This is 100% about controlling women.

Donald Trump is a sexual abuser, should anyone be surprised? There is no line that this putrid administration won't cross

[RebeldeFaith 5,757]

I watched the video and that clown didn't even knew how to properly defend his case. It is extremely telling that they're doing something like this. All of his devices should be checked.

Coming from the "Your body my choice" nazis, we just can't be surprised
