Sex lessons for infants are a cultural Marxist assault on the family

The twenty-three Conservative MPs who have apparently supported a motion to make sex and relationship education (SRE) compulsory in all schools, including faith schools, ought to resign the whip immediately.

According to one report, lessons will begin at four and though parents will be able to opt-out, many will either not be aware of their right to do so, or will be reluctant to exercise the right for fear of their child being stigmatised. A fact which the Department of Education is well aware of. Such a policy is far from conservative: it is State overreach. It overrides parental consent and forces children to be indoctrinated into a particular ideology regarding how they must think and feel about sexual relationships.

The problem is that the Department of Health has yet to define what constitutes sex education.

It is far from clear what the content of such lessons will be, especially in a climate which has embraced questionable notions of sex and sexuality, such as transgenderism, and seeks to impose them on children. What precisely are four-year-olds going to be taught about sex and relationships? Are children going to be taught about the different types of sex act? Presumably, in this age of inclusiveness and diversity, any such education must include a comprehensive account of how same-sex couples get sexually intimate.

One woman has recently detailed on Mumsnet how an entire primary school, including a reception class were shown a piece of transgender propaganda, supposedly to promote tolerance and inclusiveness, after one of the four-year-olds presented as transgender and the school decided that they would pander to his whim.

None of the parents were informed in advance that their children would be shown the material and far from promoting tolerance, the children appear to have been left with confused ideas, such as that if you prefer activities and toys typically associated with the opposite sex, then you must become that sex. Crucially, none of them were informed as to what might be involved in transitioning to the other sex; the widespread feeling was that if you felt like you might be a boy instead of a girl, then you could just ask to become one and your wish would be granted.

The woman who posted the particular thread has informed me privately that the headteacher told her that the reason parents were not pre-warned was because the school had consulted with various LGBT and council advisory groups who had advised them not to. There was a worry that parents may object and go to the press, so far better to present them with a fait accompli. The only reason that the mother hasn’t gone to the press, though the story needs wider attention, is because she is aware that there is a vulnerable young child at the centre of all this who could be damaged by the resulting attention.
