Sex in the Western Culture

 

Sex Questions for 7-Year-Olds? Court says OK.

         Parents increasingly at war against a culture they find aggressively sexualized lost another battle, this time against a local school board.

         In a recent ruling a three-judge panel of the Circuit Court of Appeals (that be the Left Coast) determined the parents do not have a fundamental right to control when, where and how their children are taught sex.

         Rather the state- in its far greater wisdom about what is right and wrong- has ultimate power over kids.

         Kids ages 7 through 10 were asked, for example, to rate the following activities according to how often they experienced the thought or emotions1:

(1) Touching my private parts too much, (2) Thinking about having sex, (3) Thinking about touching other peoples’ private parts.
