Sex Education
In the late 1990s I received for whatever reasons a lot of
questions from people who wrote in to get answers that sex-education in school
and by various bureaucracies was and had been misleading them on.
In some cases, the misleading was obviously caused by ignorance, but in others,
and especially when it was done by government officials high on the ladder, it
was hard to avoid the impression that it was done deliberately. I have no idea
why anyone would want to go out of their way to mislead, for example, kids in
school about things that are matters of life and death, for the sake of
indoctrinating children already at an early age to pursue sexual freedom.
At any rate, I had so many of those requests for information and there was so
much misleading information out there, that eventually I posted an article on
sex-education to help clear up some of the confusion for students as well as
their parents.
The web page was quite popular for a while (as many as 80 page hits a day in
2007 -- the first year for which I have usage data for this web page) but it is
no longer being looked up very often (only about four times a day). I guess that
kids either do not care much about sex anymore or that perhaps, thanks to our
feminist governments, they now know all they are supposed to know about sex.
However, it does not surprise me that we now have
an epidemic of STDs. Perhaps our governments feel
that, ideally, a healthy nation is one in which no one is married, everyone is
promiscuous, and everyone has one or more STDs.

Much has been written about sex education. For a glimpse into the politics and
history of sex education, I recommend that you read "Kinsey: Crimes and
Consequences," by Judith Reisman, Ph.D.. (See
Excerpts)
I'll add a few general comments. Sex education is being promoted primarily by people
who are most often liberalists and who frequently have anti-family and pro-homosexual-rights feelings. Believe it or not, Dr. Alfred Kinsey promoted it
[1] (and SIECUS
[2]
still does) to further promiscuity, under the premise that it would reduce the incidence
of STDs (sexually transmitted diseases), and that it would make for better marriages if
people would be well-versed and experienced in sexual intercourse before marriage.[3] Of course, that's insane. The destruction of
our families and the epidemic of STDs that followed should be more than enough proof that
the sexual revolution caused more harm to society than many other things that befell
mankind.[4]
The problem with the current trend in sex education is that it doesn't deliver what it
promised, a better society.[5] If we teach
children to use condoms, we tell them in effect that it is all right to have sex. We
should therefore not be surprised that many children become promiscuous and thereby
conceive children while they are still children themselves, or that they contract STDs.
Few children realize that
condoms offer no protections at all against papilloma virus
infections. Nor do they realize that
condoms offer very little protection against
hepatitis C or HIV infections. All three of these diseases are incurable and
contribute, to varying extents, to early deaths. To boot, condom failures are
frequent, especially if latex
condoms are used in conjunction with lubricants that contain
oils. [6, 7
10]
In the case of condom failure, the result is often a pregnancy. After
all, the purpose of sexual intercourse is to cause a child to be conceived.
Of course sexual intercourse feels good, but that is for no other reason
than to ensure that people engage in it, so that children will be conceived.
However, how can we have a functioning society based on unregulated,
promiscuous sexual activities? Children may be
capable of having sexual intercourse, but they are most definitely not capable of being
very good parents, especially not in a society in which a record number of children who
become parents at best don't have more than the support by half of their extended family
— on account of growing up in single-mother families. To discuss hormone therapy as
a contraceptive is pointless. It does nothing to prevent anyone from contracting
STDs.
The biggest problem with the views promoted in sex education these days is that they don't
stress the best and most effective method for the prevention of either pregnancies or
STDs, that is to abstain or to remain chaste. [6, 7]
What is truly wrong with preserving one's virginity until one gets married? What
blessings did the liberalization of sexual morals bring us? Are we truly better off
with a very high rate of teen pregnancies, record numbers of out-of-wedlock births and
epidemic rates of STDs?[4] We all know what the
answer to that is, but few people in the education system are willing to risk their
careers by promoting logic that is politically incorrect. To do so would bring them the
wrath of the homosexual rights lobby which is busy teaching children, through the
sex-education curriculum and in accordance to plan, that homosexuality is a valid
alternative life style -- without teaching children about the risks to
their lives that the "valid" homosexual life style causes.
Just the other day I heard someone make a very good comment that sums up my feelings quite
nicely. Your body is a gift, the greatest gift that you can make to anyone. It
is like a Christmas gift, in as much that few people will appreciate a Christmas gift that
has been opened too many times already, let alone one that was damaged in the process.

Notes:
Kinsey: Alleged "Findings"
The Kinsey Model
By Judith Reisman, Ph.D.
Kinsey's Alleged Basic "Findings"
All orgasms are "outlets" and equal between husband and wife, boy and
dog, man and boy, girl, or baby - for there is no abnormality and no normality.
As the aim of coitus is orgasm, the more orgasms from any "outlet," at the
earliest age - the healthier the person.
Early masturbation is critical for sexual, physical and emotional health. It can
never be excessive or pathological.
Sexual taboos and sex laws are routinely broken, thus all such taboos and sex laws should
be eliminated, including that of rape and child rape, unless serious "force" is
used and serious harm is proven.
Since sex is, can, and should be commonly shared with anyone and anything, jealousy is
passé.
All sexual experimentation before marriage will increase the likelihood of a successful
long-term marriage and venereal disease and other socio-sexual maladies will be reduced
dramatically.
Human beings are naturally bisexuals Religious bigotry and prejudice forces people into
chastity, heterosexuality and monogamy.
Children are sexual and potentially orgasmic from birth ('womb to tomb'); are unharmed by
incest, adult/child sex, and often benefit thereby.
There is no medical or other reason for adult-child sex or incest to be forbidden.
All forms of sodomy are natural and healthy.
Homosexuals represent ten to thirty-seven percent of the population or more. (Kinsey's
findings were always very fluid on this point.) Some educators have interpreted his
findings by saying that only four to six percent of the population are exclusively
heterosexual so the "heterosexual" bias in the U.S. should be eliminated.
[Two recently released study reports indicate
that the rate of homosexuality in the population is likely far lower. In one study
of 1007 children followed from birth in New Zealand, "Fergusson et al found that, at
age 21, the 28 classified as gay, lesbian or bisexual were significantly more likely to
have had mental health problems than the 979 classed as heterosexual." In the
other study, involving a sample population of 6,537 men, Herrell et al found that only 120
reported any same-sex partners (1.8%). WHS]

Sex Information & Education Council of the United States (SIECUS)
...SIECUS's new leader, Dr. Mary Calderone, past medical director of Planned Parenthood,
was the direct link between Kinsey's university-based research, Planned Parenthood's
grassroots outreach, and SIECUS as a Resource Centre [operating] Specialized Programs to
Distribute Information about Human sexuality [through] learned journals, research studies,
training materials for health professionals and sample classroom curricula.
Kinsey: Crime & Consequences, p. 178
- Sexual Attitude Restructuring (SAR)
SIECUS is the driving force for the promotion of the sex-education curriculum that is
being promoted in our schools. By now in the order of 200,000 teachers and sex
educators have been indoctrinated directly through SIECUS-sponsored courses and
materials. Thereby SIECUS' ideology permeates all of the education
system. SAR is at the core of the ideology promoted by SIECUS. That is
basically a brainwashing technique -- a propaganda technique -- that inures people,
teachers as well as students, to outrageous moralities and moral standards that will then
become acceptable in their minds and replace established "stuffy" and
"archaic" moral traditions. Click on the URL shown above to obtain an
appreciation of what is at play in the application of SAR.

Revolution (graphs from Kinsey: Crime & Consequences)
The Family Research council reports that with respect to
condoms vs. abstinence, Colin Powell and George Bush have widely differing views.
Which views will prevail, those that promote "safe" sex (that is not so safe) or
those that promote a healthy life style for children, so that they may live to a healthy
ripe old age?

POWELL STRAYS FROM BUSH POLICY ON SEX EDUCATION, FRC SAYS
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Secretary of State Colin Powell's remarks on MTV Thursday in which he
advocated condoms to protect against the spread of sexually transmitted diseases fly in
the face of research data and are inconsistent with President Bush's policy to promote
abstinence-based sex education, Family Research Council President Ken Connor said Friday.
"Young people need to know the truth that the only sure way to protect themselves
from the spread of life-threatening, sexually transmitted diseases is to save sex for
marriage," Connor said.
MTV hosted Secretary Powell for a "Q & A" session with teens from around the
world. In response to a question about HIV/AIDS, Powell said, "It's important that
the whole international community come together, speak candidly about it, forget about
taboos, forget about conservative ideas with respect to what you shouldn't tell young
people about.
It's the lives of young people who are put at risk by unsafe sex - and, therefore, protect
yourself....in my own judgment,
condoms are a way to prevent infection - and, therefore, I
support their use...among people who are sexually active and need to protect
themselves."
Mr. Powell's comments are inconsistent with the stated position of the administration and
with President Bush's increased funding for abstinence-based sex education programs. In
1999, George W. Bush told a teen abstinence group: "Abstinence is 100 percent certain
to not only make sure that children avoid pregnancy, but it's 100 percent certain to make
sure that children avoid disease," he said.
On the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, President Bush reiterated his support for funding
abstinence programs in a statement to the March for Life participants.
"Sec. Powell's remarks are reckless and irresponsible," said Connor. "Can
you imagine what Powell's response would have been to a soldier under his command who made
public pronouncements contrary to his own? Further, they create the false sense of
security among impressionable teenagers that
condoms allow for 'safe sex.' They don't.
They create the 'illusion' of safe sex, resulting in an epidemic of sexually transmitted
diseases in this country. President Bush should repudiate Sec. Powell's comments and
publicly exhort him for his irresponsible remarks."
Last year, the National Institutes of Health issued a report which found insufficient
evidence that condoms protect people from the majority of sexually transmitted diseases.
According to the panel of 28 experts who assembled the report based on data from numerous
studies, condom use can reduce the risk of gonorrhea for men and HIV transmission for men
and women. But no one has any evidence that
condoms prevent transmission of chlamydia
(which can lead to infertility and tubal pregnancy), syphilis, female gonorrhea, herpes,
chancroid (which can increase the chances of getting HIV), trichomoniasis, or human
papillomavirus (the number-one cause of cervical cancer).

- Epidemic
How Teen Sex is Killing our Kids
By Dr. Meg Meeker
Townhall.com
Review by Johannes L. Jacobse
- Jill Cohen Walker, in BRAINWASHING
THE CHILDREN . . .
A
GLOBAL EFFORT - Part 3 (May 16, 2006), puts that another way.
In its alleged quest for equality for women, the feminist movement
fomented the destruction of the family (especially poor families) and
the creation of a global harem via the destruction of morals. Women
still (as in ancient empires) rely on their physical selves to bargain
for the crown jewels. Look at the prostitution rings taking shape on
college campuses across this nation. Modern women have evidently found a
way to put a dollar value on their virtue; and once that virtue is sold,
the merchandise is no different than a used car.

What about male condoms and sexually transmitted diseases (STD's)?
By American Pregnancy Association
A condom is the only means of birth control that provides any
reduction in the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases.
However condoms are not "Safe Sex," but rather "Safer Sex."
According to the workshop summary, "Scientific Evidence on Condom
Effectiveness for Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Prevention,"
July 2001, The National Institute of Health and the National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases report:
- Condoms provide no reduction in the
transmission of the human papilloma virus (HPV) or Trichomonas
vaginalis.
- Syphilis transmission is reduced 29%
for typical use. It is reduced 50 to 71% when condoms are used
correctly 100% of the time.
- Gonorrhea and Chlamydia transmission is
reduced by approximately 50% even when condoms are used 100% of
the time.
- Genital herpes transmission is reduced
by approximately 40%
- HIV transmission is reduced by
approximately 85% when condoms are used correctly 100% of the
time.
Condoms help prevent the transmission of STD's by reducing the
likelihood of partner exposure through genital contact or fluid
secretions. Condoms only reduce the likelihood of exposure,
they do not prevent exposure.

See also other sources of information relating to the escalating epidemic of
STDs and what can be done about STDs and to curb the epidemic:
Note: Many pieces of advice often don't mention that sexual intercourse
is not the only way by which STDs can be transmitted. For example, virtually all
STDs (and many other diseases) can and will be transmitted when intravenous drug users
share needles, but that is not all. Improperly sterilized needles used in a doctor's
offices, clinics and hospitals, for instance, are one of the major reasons for the spread
of AIDS in Africa and other underdeveloped nations.
It must also be stressed that the risk of contracting an STD it far greater
with anal than with vaginal intercourse. The rectum is designed for extrusion, not
for intrusion and is therefore more likely to be an avenue by which STDs can and will
be transmitted. One out of two homosexual men
contract an HIV infection, and oral sex isn't safe either.

Townhall.com: You won't read it in the papers
By Mona Charen
April 29, 2005
http://www.townhall.com/columnists/monacharen/mc20050429.shtml
...A pledge is not an abstinence program. As for data on risky anal and
or oral sex by so-called abstainers, those too were self-described
pledgers, not participants in an abstinence program.
By contrast, the Journal of Adolescent and Family Health has just
published a carefully crafted study of the Best Friends program and
found that it does, in fact, deliver on its promise -- to promote
abstinence from sex, drugs and alcohol among its school-age
participants. [And, by extension, freedom from being infected with
STDs and from having to experience unwanted or inconvenient pregnancies

New Research Confirms Condoms Not Effective in HIV Prevention
Experts say availability of

promiscuity and risk of contracting HIV
Have no illusions that the problems with America's education system are national ones.
Once you read Tom DeWeese's article and know who's behind "The Fix", you'll come
to the conclusion that you know also why "The Fix" is destroying education
in all developed nations. You'll then know as well why the current push for
sex-education is such a large part of it.
However, don't just take my word for that. Make sure that
