All districts are now required to promote abstinence, exclude consent, and remove any pictures of reproductive organs.
The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) has ordered local school districts to submit their sex education plans to the state for approval. The FLDOE has also said the classes must promote abstinence and cannot include discussion of contraception or pictures of reproductive health organs.
The sex-ed takeover removes local discretion when it comes to district sex education classes and materials.
Well lookie here. It’s Big-Government DeSantis creating the Junior Anti-Sex League.
The Junior Anti-Sex League represents the Party’s efforts to control the most intimate aspects of individuals’ lives in “1984”.
Unlike Winston, [Julia] had grasped the inner meaning of the Party’s sexual puritanism. It was not merely that the sex instinct created a world of its own which was outside the Party’s control and which therefore had to be destroyed if possible. What was more important was that sexual privation induced hysteria, which was desirable because it could be transformed into war-fever and leader-worship.
Many people enjoy inserting and removing a their gun from a holster, however, it’s important to remember that discharging your gun in the holster can have dire, life altering consequences.
these guys think about sex and children too much to not be pedophiles.
and this is the number one legislation you’d want to pass if you wanted to make it easier to engage in pedophilia.
They just want Florida schools to make victims.
When your thirty year plan as a governor is just to keep the Florida man meme alive forever.
Florida biology classes mostly center around the four humors.
You joke, but it does feel as though dismantling public education is just a knock-on effect of all these gag orders.
If you want your kids to get a serious sex-ed or biology background, you’re obligated to send them to private schools.
That’s their plan. Educated citizens vote less often for restrictive, backwards Republican culture warrior control freaks.
The plan is a Christian Caliphate. These people are terminally lazy, so it’s less work to be a radical sect than it is to learn how to build a bridge, or a healthy family.
Don’t necessarily need to go as far as full private education. Unitarian Universalists have put together workshops for sexual education.
I’m not a member of UU, but I have friends who are and the curriculum seems legit.
I was raised UU! It’s a great sex ed and relationship health program that addresses all aspects of relationships, sex-related or not. I highly recommend checking out your local Unitarian Universalist church/congregation if you have one nearby. They’re pretty cool folks.
Won’t anybody think of the children!?
The age old adage of the oppressor
Ah yes, more “protecting the children”* to pander to an angry and stupid electorate.
* “Protecting the children” is a phrase used here to mean, “ensuring the next generation of an angry and stupid electorate.”
To pander to the segment of the electorate DeSantis thinks is going to reelect him.
He needs to get the state legislature to revoke their term limits before he can be reelected.
The next *large and extremely young generation
This is how you get teens pregnant. And/or full of STDs.
When Fidesz banned sex ed here in Hungary on the basis of “child protection”, we got an immediate rise in child pregnancies.
And children and teens groomed and assaulted.
With all the hysteria around a White Lady Pregnancy Gap, this may be a feature rather than a bug.
If the revolution needs a baby sitter, then the revolution will probably just stay home instead.
If theres no sex and no ed how is it sex ed?
My guess would be sone form of gender astrology: Men bigger, have more angry, women smaller, have more talk.
It isn’t. Florida needs pregnant teenagers who can’t get abortions so that they can use their children to sit on the coastline and pedal the land up out of the water. This is also where they will get their electricity. It also needs a constant supply of these children because they’ll have to replace them after every hurricane.
Everything I just typed is probably more likely to work than abstinence based sex ed is to prevent pregnancy and is just as scientifically valid as a sex ed class with no sex and no ed.
Nice, Five Million Merits mixed with dystopia environmentalist catastrophe, I love it
You talking about the Black Mirror episode?
I watched it a decade ago or something (can’t remember it), need to see it again. It’s 15 million merits though.
Thanks for the correction! Been about the same amount of time for me lol
So not sex ed.
Ed won’t even know where to start with his wiener. You ever read that story about the lady who never got pregnant because her husband had been inserting himself into her urethra opening?
No, and that sounds impossible. Like, I can’t imagine how that could happen even once. Do you have a source? I can’t find anything.
Not going to link it, but in the video I saw, there were two distinct holes behind the hole he was using. So, either he was using a urethra, or she had a second vagina.
I’d really love to see that video. I can’t find anything like that. I found one article claiming a couple was using the wrong hole, but it was the anus, not the urethra. There are two holes behind that, if you’re facing a certain way. The urethral opening is so tiny that ‘micropenis’ would have to be a vast overstatement.
I’ll dig for it. Might have been bullshit but I definitely read it.
Who knows? Maybe I’ll end up being the face of bad women’s anatomy on Lemmy. :p
I’ll find it.
I’ve read that story, too. Still might be bullshit, but who would tell false story about sex on the Internet?
Edit: found it, or at least an example
- Habek, D., Arbanas, G. & Jukic, V. An Unusual Case of Infertility: Urethral Coitus Due to Cribriform Hymen. Arch Sex Behav 47, 811–813 (2018). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10508-017-1060-z
Thank you for your willingness to look into it and your potential acknowledgement that the story may have been bullshit. I appreciate that.
I’m pretty sure this can’t have happened, because the urethra is quite narrow and the opening so small, it’s a massive issue to get used to catheters with a tiny diameter. From what I hear, it takes a lot of physical and mental fortitude to be able to insert a catheter into that hole, needing good aim and perseverance, and a lot of design goes into making the cath process less traumatic.
Caths are quite small. Unless a dick was literally a millimetre in diameter, I can’t imagine how that could happen, especially since the vagina is right next to that opening. If you even tried, it would just slip a quarter of an inch towards the opening that would easily accommodate it. It just seems physically impossible.
e: and don’t feel bad about not understanding the intricacies of women’s anatomy – I’ve seen posts by adult women who don’t understand what or where their own urethra is. This is why we need better sex ed, not worse like Florida wants.
So are they just going to pray in class now? Practice their purity vows? Maybe we can have the creepy dad wedding right there in school.
States rights is just a cover for them, so fuck it let’s do some pre-empting from the federal level. Either that or use the Dept. of Education to put up billboards around Florida’s interstates. Give them Sex Ed one way or the other since they don’t want to have consent as a thing either.
Scared of the vagina. And women in general. Who are these weak men? They shouldn’t have power anywhere.
I’m not sure they’re scared, I think it’s more about control and to make sure kids don’t understand what’s happening to them if they’re subjected to abuse or when they reach puberty. It’s all about power and control over the body of other people.
The need to control raises from fear.
They are scared of losing power. Shitty rulers always are, because they know how bad they are, or at least they assume others would treat them just as badly if given the chance, which is almost synonymous.
And more teen pregnancies so there’s more right coloured children and more women staying out of school.
Have you ever seen a vagina? Its terrifying! /s
These men need to be schooled by Nick Offerman.
These words include abuse, consent, domestic violence, fluids, gender identity and LGBTQ information, she said.
Bro what. Ok ok I understand, no matter how much I disagree with it, why they think pictures of stuff are icky but c’mon, people.
I remember sex ed class having textbooks with drawings, not photographs. It wasn’t icky. The topic was awkward AF, of course… Well, I dunno what textbooks are like these days tho.
It’s beyond apparent they want women locked into abusive marriages again. If they could get away with it they’d be rolling back their abilities to use banks, get a driver’s license, or even work without the consent of their husband.
They’re working on no fault divorce repeal.
A few maggot congresspersons have floated the idea
It’s part of project 2025. It’s more than just a few people.
Hey, Maggots don’t deserve that comparison. They’re actually useful to an ecosystem. ;)
That’s also why they’re pandering actively for incels.
Many, many doctors and health professionals are saying Florida Gov. Ron Desantis has a truncated and bifurcated chungus, and this has led to his fear of high school anatomy class.
The secret noo noo goes into the other secret place and that is how you go to jail. End 2024 lesson.
