It's interesting because regardless of what we as individuals may think about homosexuality, two, same sex parent homes are reality for some children. The passage from a book: "I released his arms. They glided around my neck, pulling my head down to his. I stretched full length on top of him, our heads touching. Our heavy breathing from the struggle gradually subsided. I felt …" that is geared for children as young as 12... would it be any more appropriate if it were about a heterosexual? Personally, i don't think it would.
Ultimately, my issue is that they are really attacking homosexuality, not child pornography! Who really cares if Billy and Roscoe decide to get it on? I am concerned about people getting off by observing two 6 years have sexual encounters! It's a sad day when we would see "a positive aspect on illiteracy" rather than let children know that gay people exist. We really need to chill with the hidden agendas. If you have an issue with homosexuality, say that. Stop hiding beyond irrelevant topics such as child porn. There is no correlation! Whether we agree gay rights rises to the level of the civil rights of African Americans or Native Americans or not, gay rights will eventually be incorportated in civil rights history thus history and social studies books. Again who cares? *hands mic back to BP*

As is usual with WND (World Net Daily) accuracy is something of an art rather than a science. For example they say:
"GLSEN's stated mission is to empower gay youth in the schools and to stop harassment by other students. It encourages the formation of Gay Student Alliances and condemns the use of hateful words. GLSEN also strives to influence the educational curriculum to include materials which the group believes will increase tolerance of gay students and decrease bullying," the report said.
The actual website and their mission says the following:
OUR MISSION The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network strives to assure that each member of every school community is valued and respected regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression.
We believe that such an atmosphere engenders a positive sense of self, which is the basis of educational achievement and personal growth. Since homophobia and heterosexism undermine a healthy school climate, we work to educate teachers, students and the public at large about the damaging effects these forces have on youth and adults alike. We recognize that forces such as racism and sexism have similarly adverse impacts on communities and we support schools in seeking to redress all such inequities. GLSEN seeks to develop school climates where difference is valued for the positive contribution it makes in creating a more vibrant and diverse community. We welcome as members any and all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity/expression or occupation, who are committed to seeing this philosophy realized in K-12 schools.
Influencing the educational curriculum is an interpretation of the reader. It's not implicitly or explicitly stated on the website. I should also note that it's not impossible (the reader's interpretation could be right) - it's just not the only interpretation. That said, I did check the book list also - and I'd object with it being read in a classroom. If people want to have their own kids reads these books (or others) that's their perogative, but I would not want someone to make that choice for me. And here is "the rabbit out of the hat" one more time.
The accusation is : In other words, these are the books that GLSEN’s directors think all kids should be reading: gay kids should read them to raise their self-esteem, and straight kids should read them in order to become more aware and tolerant and stop bullying gay kids. Through GLSEN’s online ordering system, called “GLSEN BookLink,” featured prominently on their Web site, teachers can buy the books to use as required classroom assignments, or students can buy them to read on their own.
But that's not really what they say on their (GLSEN's website.)
Through GLSEN's BookLink, you can review and order any of our published works and other pre-screened videos and publications related to GLSEN's mission or other LGBT issues in education.
Did you see the slight of hand? The website says issues in education, and that's reinterpreted by the critics to say that it would be used as required classroom reading. The two are not necessarily the same. I would have a problem if it was required classroom reading but there are other education issues (i.e. educating educators on how to deal with students who might be gay for example)
So the moral of the story is - when it comes from World Net Daily - check the sources - cause WND is almost certainly skewed.

Again who cares? *hands mic back to BP* uh.... Homosexuals have the biggest agenda there is. I detest the homosexual lifestyle. Furthermore for every 10 homo's who claim to have been born gay, 100 were introduced into the lifestyle by child predators. Instead of being honest homos concoct the dangerous agenda of not being forth coming about how they came into there lifestyle and use wide spread self medication methods to keep the numbers low. Cant get legislation passed for rights when you are seen as a vector of infection so lets do this... lets use and abuse antibiotics keep white gay men out of the clinics and paint a new picture of HIV/AIDS with black women and down low black men. We talking agendas? Hidden Agendas? Man/Boy Love and Gay Lifestyle were hand and hand until the mid 70's.... Look it up. Look up the Gay Platform of 1972 that sought to abolish all age of consent for sex. At its core Pedastry and Homosexuality come from the same root and I'm not surprised by this development. Men if you have little boys protect your sons from this madness spearheaded behind the scenes by the population control machine. Also talking about a man and woman sexually though it maybe vulgar has its place because that union is how 98% of us got here.

^^^ But why not just say the issue is with the homosexual agenda? Why put up a front of child pornography? I think the books and materials mentioned are inappropriate because they are inappropriate not because it's homosexual couples. So what about the majority of child molesters who are straight? This is why child pornography isn't necessarily a homosexual issue. Could it be that just like with HIV/AIDS, this country is so wrapped up in sexual preference that we ignore the disease for the symptoms? How silly it was for this country to believe that a sexually transmitted disease (since you pointed out the vast majority of people arrive on earth via sexual intercouse) would have a sexual preference. It's equally silly to believe that pedophila (which involves pre-adolescent children who generally have no signs of puberty) has a sexual preference.
Now if we are going to limit same sex education, then let's limit same sex education. Let's say that's what we are trying to do. If we are going to truly address child pornography, molestation and exploitation then let's do that and stop the BS of attacking homosexuals. How about we start looking to the men we date and marry who are raping our daughters or teachers we allow to tutor our little boys and end up pregnant.

How about we start looking to the men we date and marry who are raping our daughters or teachers we allow to tutor our little boys and end up pregnant. I swear the theme behind closed doors as it pertains us is probably... "niggers.... Quick to jump behind a slogan while ignoring the fine print" You say it was silly to paint HIV/AIDS as a gay disease...but it is a gay male based drug abusing disease at its core since the beginning. I'm gonna use a couple examples and then be done with this.... We will look at #1 Origin of Disease #2 Mode of Transmission #3 Testing discrepancies #1 Origin of Disease HIV/AIDS is stated to derive from SIV in Monkeys from Africa. Now one must think... how could HIV-1 come from Monkey's jumped species but wasn't prevalent on the continent of its origin? HIV-2 was then "introduced" and showed the similarities between the two.. Up into 10 years ago HIV-1 had no known origin as more differences than similarities to SIV. The first case of some one dying from HIV-1 documented without looking a tissues samples from before are gay white men in New York and San Francisco. This was the face of the disease which quickly turned to Hemophiliacs, Haitians, and Heroin users in the 80's which was the first of the massive cover up to protect the perverted sexually practices of white males.. #2 The Mode of transmission for this disease is mostly men having sex with men 50%. Anal sex is unnatural and unhealthy period. Anal Fissures alone can allow harmful bacteria from feces to get into the blood stream causing all types of damage. Next is IV drug users but I don't think it comes from needle sharing but more so the drug itself and its affects on the immune system. Crack Cocaine affects the immune system as well. Women getting HIV from Men do so by two ways... #1 Anal Sex again or Regular intercourse with Semen being the culprit both times. In the vagina the woman has natural flora that destroys most sperm cells on sight and the rest die but with the rubber movement being more about the protection of men and not women theses prophylactics scrape at the walls of the vagina disrupting the natural flora, causing fissures and now when a woman does decide to have unprotected sex her vagina is at risk and not up to optimum levels. #3 Testing discrepancies. This is by far the biggest agenda and coverup ever. Let the media tell it.. Black and Hispanics make up 60% of the HIV in this country. Now this is the agenda I'm talking about. White Men the originators of the down low lifestyle changing the face of HIV/AIDS. Name one time when you have heard a commercial on the radio or TV that is urging white folks to go get tested? The reason HIV rates are high amongst blacks and Hispanics is not because of prevalence but because we are the majority of the testing pool. Here is an example... Look closely at the overall population of LA, the racial makeup of the population, and then the numbers of who are getting tested. quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/06/06037.htmlLos Angeles County, California (a) Includes persons reporting only one race. (b) Hispanics may be of any race, so also are included in applicable race categories. Population, 2008 estimate 9,862,049 White persons, percent, 2008 (a) 74.1% Black persons, percent, 2008 (a) 9.4% Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin, percent, 2008 (b) 47.7% Now lets look at the testing from 2002-2003 and 2005 from La County for HIV 02/03 05 Latino 39.0% 36.6% White 24.2% 24.2% African American 45.6% 50.5% So you have 70% of the population whom are only 25% of the testing pool. You have 9 percent of the population whom are 50 PERCENT of the testing pool... I can do this from every state all day. The reason HIV/AIDS rates are seemingly high amongst us is because Blacks and Hispanics are targeted for testing and make up more than half of the testing pools. Thing is the prevalence of HIV amongst an antiquated testing pool of white Americans is the real pandemic. i wonder what the rates would be if they were tested at the same percentage levels. Remember you made this about the homos and their rights. I have shown the hidden agenda of the Gay Platform which seeks and still seeks to do away with age limitations as it pertains the sexual intercourse and also propaganda to change the face of the white gay male... a drug abusing, random sex having in a park vector of infection. The sad thing is they are now using black women as the new face of HIV next it will be the babies. Wake Up seriously and arm yourself with information

Dang, I forgot I posted this...
*takes mic back from Pep*
Well said sistren!! My gripe with the article is that it is SOOO obvious that this is propoganda BS. These arsewipes are of the belief that because a homosexual is in a position of authority over kids, our children are now subjected to nothing but nasty perversive gay sex education!! What baffles me and continues to baffle me is the focus always seems to be on the private SEX ACTS of the homosexuals than their public acts! Is Jennings qualified to be in such a position? What does his resume say? Why are we in his F'N bedroom!!!!!
...and since Obama appointed him, its just another indirect/direct attack on him as President! If this was true the country would be OUTRAGED because books that contain the "alleged" subject matter is UNACCEPTABLE whether it be about HOMO or HETEROSEXUAL! Its Obscene and totes the line of Child porn and pedophilia! NO man in their right mind would recommend books like that for young children to read without a rucous! These folks are absolute imbecils!
