From the OneNewsNow‘s School website promotes homosexual agenda (emphasis added):
Karen England, executive director of Capitol Resource Institute, says the [San Francisco Unified School District] is excluding parents on this issue.“What about parents? Can parents opt [their child] out?” she asks. “And the explanation that they give is that, no, they can’t opt out. [They say they] are under no obligation to even let them know because this is not sex education — and that’s all the law requires [them] to do.”
England says children as young as kindergarten in the Golden State are exposed to the LGBTQ agenda through the website. “And that [includes] transgender policy that allows boys, as young as kindergarten, to go into girls’ restrooms [or to] play on girls’ sports teams if they perceive themselves to be girls,” she explains.
“And [it includes] curriculum — that is as young as kindergarten — that explains homophobia, explains the word ‘gay,’” England adds. The vocabulary link at the website also defines terms such as “bisexual,” “gender identity” (“Everyone has a gender identity,” it says), and “transgender.”
Ah yes. We don’t exclude training on heterosexual parentage from the curriculum because it’s traditional marriage embraced by conservative “Christians.”
And, even though the American Medical Association states that trans people shouldn’t be discriminated against, the American Psychological Association states that trans people shouldn’t be discriminated against, and the National Education Association believes that a great public school is a fundamental right of every child — free from intimidation and harassment, and safe for all students — including those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) — and yet Karen England of the Capitol Resource Institute believes the parents of non-LGBT children should be able to dictate, on behalf of the State of California, when the non-sexual aspects of LGBT parents and children lives should be able to be discussed in the classroom, to include bathroom use.
Should we apply the same rules for discussing the non-sexual aspects of conservative “Christian,” heterosexual parents and children too, to include bathroom use? Should I, as an LGBT taxpayer in California, be able to demand the same standards that Karen England wishes to impose on one minority population who uses the public school system on all populations who use the public school system?
Talk about wanting “special rights” … That sure sounds to me what Karen England wants for conservative “Christians” — she wants conservative “Christians” to have the special right of deciding what is acceptable and not acceptable in the school system for all students.
When conservative “Christian” Jesus is your co-pilot, I guess you can feel that as a parent you should have “special rights” over other parents and other students who aren’t in your group — right Karen?

Apparently there does need to be a remedial classOn the purpose and use of a bathroom because apparently the wide-stance, only go when you’re at home because germs are icky crowd apparently has forgotten the purpose of the public restroom.
You take a shit or a piss, maybe you change a diaper. That’s the purpose of the restroom and maybe the 3 gigs of gloryhole porn on their computer has them confused but that’s the whole point.
Also, women’s restrooms only have stalls. One is never exposed to anyone at anytime and oddly enough the tiny symbol on the entrance doesn’t mythically stop all rapists from entering.
The world isn’t your porn collection and your “business trips with long layovers to practice your wide stance” fundies.
Oh, god… it was all I could do to listen to that one Rep this AM…Who feared all the Children being FORCED to learn about this horrific immorality in school.Luckily, a number of other Representatives discussed how it was actually people of the younger generations…who opened their eyes to the normality and inequality of marriage inequality.One with an 8 year old niece whose classmate parents included, 2 Moms or 2 Dad, and that was just fine with her.. so why couldn't they get married? That was not right. ……. So there. Loved it.
>rolls eyes<I have this same argument with these bloody idiots.
I tell them flat out what I do:
1) Enter the toilet
2) Go in a stall
3) Shut the door and lock it! (This is a step these morons seem to forget!)
4) Do what I came to do
5) Wipe
6) Go to the sink — wash and dry my hands
7) Check my hair and brush if necessary.
8) If I’m wearing makeup, check and reapply if needed.
9) Leave
That’s all…
I had the fundie “preacher” Brother Jed Smock ask if I actually went in to listen to the women pee! I almost asked him, ‘Why Jed, do you do that in the mens’ room?’
Who’s the perv? Him or me???
What possible problem could they have with a statement as innocuous and self-evident as “Everyone has a gender identity”? But given their mind?set, if San Francisco taught that “Everyone has kneecaps,” they’d find something ominous in it.
>rolls eyes too<Come now. Who on this blogy-thingee thinks that people go to the restrooms to assault people?
I know the xtians like to make a big hoohaa about how they are oppressed,
[but hahahha.... sorry... just trying... hahahaha... to ... hahahaha... spit it ... hahahaha... out... help... help.. I'm being repressed...]
But really now. I just want to pee. God almighty, can I just be allowed to pee?
They will fight to the deathAgainst so-called kneecap legislation. It’s only purpose is to silence Christians from being able to express themselves about the truth in aiming for the kneecaps of people they don’t like. Pastors in churches and gun ranges all across this great nation will be silenced. Now donate big money!
