You're killing me here, Smalls. One of your first notes included clarification that a teacher should not talk about sexual intercourse (obviously), and in this one you clarify that Jimmy's class pictures won't be sexually explicit. I went to Catholic school in the 70s, what sort of Thunderdome school did you attend that prompted you to make sure there was no misunderstanding on THOSE issues? 🤣 I'd think if the school district was concerned about fallout from that type of project, that project would be on the chopping block. I wouldn't have an issue with it. I have to tell you, my children had some good teachers, some average teachers, and a couple were not great at all. Personally, I wouldn't want any teacher getting too far off on a tangent as I described earlier. I'd bet most teacher's don't want that conversation, either. The one's who do, well, they probably shouldn't be teaching. What I wanted was kindness, empathy, understanding and lesson plans, with a little bit of toughness as needed.

Why does the family tree project need to be scrapped?
dickleyjones Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 i don't think you could ever erase "family" type projects from the curriculum. if it's not a "my family" project, it's a "what i did last summer" or what have you. most kids know their families better than anything else. they are a great basis for learning. these issues are going to come up in some way, and yes, as long as it is approached with kindness, empathy, understanding, it should be ok. 1

The problem is - the right thinks our education systems are grooming children to be open minded, liberal/democrat and GAY. So they think they can salvage the long term viability of the Republican Party by nipping it in the bud. Thats why school boards and teachers are being attacked. Thats why they think it is ok to discriminate and erase LGTBQ because they think being gay is a choice. This *will* backfire on the cult and young people will reject this as well. You can count on it…

Dickley raised a particular scenario, and it happened to be a child with a family and non-explicit photos. I wasn’t suggesting that the family tree project should be scrapped, it was that if the school district felt there might be unintended fallout the/a program the school district would have a decision to make. In my opinion, we need more discussions/projects that lead to understanding of our collective journey, not less. 1

Nothing about this law says that teachers can’t be kind. Let’s stay on track here. 1

Big Blitz Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 ‘Fictosexual’ man married hologram bride, but now struggles to bond with her A “fictosexual” man who wed a fictional, computer-synthesized pop singer four years ago said he’s now unable to communicate with his wife, but is still in love with her. Akihiko Kondo, 38, was dating Hatsune Miku — depicted in pop culture as a 16-year-old with turquoise hair — for a decade before they had an unofficial wedding ceremony in 2018. Kondo — one of many who identifies as “fictosexual,” or someone who is sexually attracted to fictional characters — spent 2 million yen, or about $17,300, on the nuptials, but his family did not attend. Now married for four years, Kondo, 38, said his relationship has hit a roadblock: He can no longer speak with Miku due to a technological hurdle, according to Japanese newspaper Mainichi. While Kondo acknowledges his relationship might be odd — he understands Miku isn’t a real person — it doesn’t change his feelings for her. Since falling in love with her in 2008, Kondo was finally able to interact with Miku for the first time in 2017 thanks to a Gatebox, a $1,300 machine that allowed device owners to interact with characters via holograms and even unofficially marry them. https://nypost.com/2022/04/26/fictosexual-man-married-hologram-bride-now-struggles-to-bond?utm_source=nypost&utm_campaign=android_nyp 38 years old.

Doc Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 Japanese men may have to turn to fictional characters. Their real women are apparently sick of them and their birth rates are cratering.

You are so funny, it is too bad it is not intentional. It is hateful to tell adults that discussing sexual acts with young children is inappropriate? Your definition of hate and that of mentally stable people is different.
