The curriculum also teaches: "The father gives the bride to the groom because he is the one man who has had the responsibility of protecting her throughout her life. He is now giving his daughter to the only other man who will take over this protective role."

One book in the "Choosing the Best" series presents a story about a knight who saves a princess from a dragon. The next time the dragon arrives, the princess advises the knight to kill the dragon with a noose, and the following time with poison, both of which work but leave the knight feeling "ashamed." The knight eventually decides to marry a village maiden, but did so "only after making sure she knew nothing about nooses or poison." The curriculum concludes: "Moral of the story: Occasional suggestions and assistance may be alright, but too much of it will lessen a man’s confidence or even turn him away from his princess."

They had Jerry Falwell on Crossfire today talking about this stuff. He was being his usual overly self-righteous self, but it really irked me when he casually remarked that the separation of church and state does not and never has existed.

One of the things that absolutely drove James Carville up the wall was that some of the schools were teaching that masturbation could cause pregnancy.
 
You should also provide a link on how we've just voted to increase funding for these programs recently. Nevermind, just noticed that info is in the report.

This country will just continue to go backwards. IDIOTS.

One of these pamphlets also tosses out the accusation that up to 50% of sexually active homosexual male teens has HIV/AIDS.

Grrr, if only those insane militias would get to the coup-in'. But I think most of them are on the bad guys side anyway.

The militia movement is definitely right-wing.

Drats and double drats.

I'm going to do what I typically resort to when terrified and appalled: go eat spider rolls and shop for cool hats.
 
One curriculum teaches that men are sexually aggressive and lack deep emotions.
In a chart of the top five women’s and men’s basic needs, the curriculum lists “sexual fulfillment” and “physical attractiveness” as two of the top five “needs” in the men’s section. “Affection,” “Conversation,” “Honesty and Openness,” and “Family Commitment” are listed only as women’s needs. The curriculum teaches: “A male is usually less discriminating about those to whom he is sexually attracted. . . . Women usually have greater intuitive awareness of how to develop a loving relationship.” The same curriculum tells participants: “While a man needs little or no preparation for sex, a woman often needs hours of emotional and mental preparation.

Just as a woman needs to feel a man’s devotion to her, a man has a primary need to feel a woman’s admiration. To admire a man is to regard him with wonder, delight, and approval. A man feels admired when his unique characteristics and talents happily amaze her.

is this abstinence education or some kind of conservative relationship counseling program? :lol

I am SO lost. WTF has a noose and poison got to do with sex?

I appreciate abstinence education solely for the opportunity men are given to corrupt an entire generation of impressionable college-age girls who have absolutely no idea about sex.

yeah, really. It goes like this:
Have unprotected sex with some girl.
Get her pregnant.
Wind up being forced to marry her and live a life of poverty.
Use the noose and/or poison on yourself to end your miserable existence.

hahaha what?

"Do you know what a noose is?"

"DERRR NO"

"You're clearly a woman who knows her place!"

:lol

I was thinking the same thing...
 
"One program actually tells kids that touching another person's genitals "can result in pregnancy." Oddly, there is no mention of hair growing on palms. Kids are told that you can get HIV from someone's sweat, and that if you have an abortion you will become mentally ill and your future children will have birth defects."

Yay! Lie to children to keep them from "sin"!

Whoa...! Ummm...wasn't there a thread about non sequiturs awhile back? If we needed a better example than this...

You would think that the opposite would be true.

What a shitty knight. Can't even kill a dragon.
 
My high school had an abstinence only curriculum run by a Mormon woman, it was ridiculous. We couldn't even mention safe sex practices or masturbation, it was an entire semester of "wait until you're married," and plenty of scare tactics.

The really ironic part is that my town had the highest pregnancy rate in the entire state of Washington for the next two years.

Hmm...you ever think that maybe this whole thing is really just a ploy so that the right will have a massive glut of fresh bodies to send off on some crazy holy war in a decade or two?
