All districts are now required to promote abstinence, exclude consent, and remove any pictures of reproductive organs.

The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) has ordered local school districts to submit their sex education plans to the state for approval. The FLDOE has also said the classes must promote abstinence and cannot include discussion of contraception or pictures of reproductive health organs.

The sex-ed takeover removes local discretion when it comes to district sex education classes and materials.

    I’m not sure they’re scared, I think it’s more about control and to make sure kids don’t understand what’s happening to them if they’re subjected to abuse or when they reach puberty. It’s all about power and control over the body of other people.

      They are scared of losing power. Shitty rulers always are, because they know how bad they are, or at least they assume others would treat them just as badly if given the chance, which is almost synonymous.

      And more teen pregnancies so there’s more right coloured children and more women staying out of school.
