‘Got Issues? Lube! Lube! Lube!’

Posted on | November 15, 2014 | 48 Comments

Chicago schools are having what is called a “controversy,” a word that means parents found out what their children are learning:

Parents at a Near West Side school say they are “shocked” and “horrified” after viewing a new sex education curriculum intended for fifth-graders, saying the way the information is presented is over the top and not age-appropriate.
During report card pickup Wednesday at Andrew Jackson Language Academy, the school hosted several parent workshops, including an afternoon meeting on Chicago Public Schools’ newest sex ed curriculum. . . .
At one point, parents could view materials intended for students. A binder labeled as the curriculum for students in fifth grade touted the benefits of female condoms for extending sex and increasing pleasure and encouraged using lubrication.
The chairwoman of the Local School Council, Angela Bryant, called the way the information was to be presented to students “appalling” and not age-appropriate. . . .
In a statement Friday afternoon, CPS officials said that the objectional material presented at Jackson was a mistake. . . .
But a slideshow posted on another school’s website, the Waters Elementary School, includes all five of the objectionable slides in a Powerpoint presentation. According to the school’s website, the slideshows contain lessons and handouts presented to students in April 2014. . . .
Under the new sex ed guidelines, 5th grade students are typically taught about contraception, [CPS spokesman Bill] McCaffrey confirmed. The discussion includes use of female condoms, he said. . . .
[S]ome of the information disturbed parents at the meeting, leading one to snap photos of five pages in the binder that included a lesson plan for fifth-graders.
One of the pages, titled “Feel Good Reasons to Use FCs [Female Condoms],” included how to make sexual intercourse last longer and read: “Once you pop, you don’t have to stop!”
The page included a drawing of a woman lifting up a 1950s-style house dress next to a smoking grill and read: “Feel the heat! FCs adjust to your body temperature, so you and your partner can both feel the heat.”
Another page reads: “Got issues? Lube! Lube! Lube!”
Bryant said she was “offended” and horrified” that the “obscene” curriculum was intended for the school’s fifth-grade children, who are typically 10 or 11 years old.
“The curriculum is appalling,” Bryant said. “The language to me was the most offensive part initially. Pop and lube, lube lube, and those kid of things. … [It] serves to rob many of our children of their innocence.”
“The language for me is very much concerning to me as a parent. The content goes beyond what I feel is age-appropriate for a fifth-grader,” said Bryant, who has two children who attend the school, which has 565 students.

What unionized government-certified indoctrination experts do to taxpayers is often quite painful. “Got issues? Lube! Lube! Lube!”

    That is just crude and nasty. There’s no need to encourage that kind of talk among high schoolers, let alone introduce it to a classroom of ten-year-olds.

    When we had the “talk” back in 5th grade, there were a number of kids who were still deeply confused about things like how menstruation works and where all that hair is going to grow. Now they’re getting sex tips? I don’t think kids are more mature or corrupt than they were back then, I think they’re being corrupted by perverted adults who love the opportunity to rob kids of their innocence in the name of “safety.”

    10 to 11 year olds? Why is this being taught at those ages? Simple – to expose kids to sex at younger and younger ages. Can’t justify statutory sexual assault laws if the kids are as informed as the adults. Just one small step closer to legalizing the pedos…

    To quote Walter, “8 year olds, Dude.”

    From the language and graphics used, I’d bet a years’ salary that this curriculum was written by a gay man. ‘Cause who better to teach sex ed to a kid not far past toddlerhood?

    I never let my kids in to begin with.

    The problem is that too many parents are either lazy or willfully blind to what’s going on in the public schools. Those who are not lazy and who desire to educate themselves are marginalized as “prudes” or told that they need to defer to the “experts.” Of course, these “experts” have been indoctrinated in the latest anti-marriage and anti-family propaganda and their “teaching” credentials consist of learning how to disseminate such propaganda while concealing it from parents who would rightly be appalled.

    I am convinced that any parent who refuses to remove his children from the clutches of these monsters will have the destruction of his child’s soul on his head. Homeschooling and parochial schooling is not a panacea. Each requires tremendous time and and effort. But why wouldn’t one do that? Why “outsource” the education of one’s child to an institution which doesn’t share one’s values and treats parents like dirt?

    I cannot understand the mindset of such people.

    Dovetailing with the prior post, let me say that using such a curriculum, which will inevitably lead to precocious behavior on the part of young children around adults, is something which could conceivably lead to legal liability for school districts. That’s a place for the deployment of “lawfare,” should a parent of a child who engages in experimentation seek redress.

    BTW, this isn’t any more about sex education than the humiliation of Matt Taylor over Shirtgate is about welcoming women into STEM.

    The over-sexualization of young children is part of the blurring the lines between children and adults. And the Left does this in order to weaken families and break the bonds between parent and child.

    Yes, really. It’s at the end of the link:

    Soon afterward the above took place, the three state employees were fired by the Department of Education.

    The homosexual movement responded by initiating a lawsuit against Brian Camenker, Scott Whiteman, and Parents Rights Coalition, claiming that they had violated an obscure and antiquated Massachusetts wiretapping law and seeking monetary damages. The “Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders” (GLAD) — the same state-funded group that won the Goodridge same-sex “marriage” case — went right into action.

    A few months later, Margot Abels, one of the fired instructors, managed to get an arbitrator in the Mass. Dept. of Education to reinstate her job. She didn’t take her job back, but instead initiated her own lawsuit to collect damages.

    After a years of court activity the GLAD lawsuit ended in 2005, when GLAD essentially abandoned the case. However, Margot Abels continued to pursue her lawsuit against Camenker and Whiteman. That suit was settled in 2006. However, the terms of the settlement allow Camenker to distribute the tape and other information regarding the incident with no restrictions.

    If your kid’s school has a “GSA” – a Gay/Straight Alliance – you should peruse the GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network) web site, glsen.org, to see what’s on “the agenda”!

    Be sure to check out “The GLSEN Jump Start Guide Part 6, Creating Youth-Adult Partnerships” to get GLSEN’s take on age-of-consent…

    Why “outsource” the education of one’s child to an institution which doesn’t share one’s values and treats parents like dirt?

    Because it’s easier. And its cheaper. Homeschooling is a pain in the ass. Sorry, but it is. We do it because we don’t want to sentence our children to time in these depraved prisons called public schools.

    People always complain about the cost, in either money, time or both. Yet, it seems that money can always be found for a new car, vacations, the cable TV bill and the last IPhone. Homeschooling was not an option for us, but we lived very frugally to make sure our children were not subjected to public schools. I don’t regret it one second.

    Both Jeanette & Jekyll offer a very preceptive insight. Both novels serve as a warning.The radical left seems to be following analogous blueprints of both novels. In Huxely’s novel, The World State teaches that the concept of family is considered pornographic. Children should be taught at an early age that sex is recreational and is meant to be a social activity rather than a means of reproduction. Members of this society have no desire to change their preordained caste. They are held in check through sleep conditioning,state run religion, drugs and orgies. Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-four describes a hell beyond Huxley’s worst fears.
