Sexuality and gender brainwashing masquerading as an anti-bullying program : Comments

By Greg Donnelly, published 23/2/2016

Knowing that the material and publications do not pass muster in terms of the Australian curriculum, it has been dressed up as an anti-bullying program.

Having looked at the resources available from the SSCA all I can say is how wonderful it is that these materials exist. They are not prescriptive, they do not tell kids that they have to do anything. All these resources do is provide information in a simple and age appropriate format. My daughter had a trans friend when she was quite young. Having a book like the Gender Fairy would have made explaining things so much easier. Providing information helps to make the unknown less scary. It helps people to understand that some differences are really just variations of the norm, instead of making it something to vilify.

What is bullying and brainwashing are those people who would make this information hard to come by in an effort to force people to adhere to what they believe is right and normal. It would be like a careers advisor telling kids that there is only one type of job they can do, regardless of what type of careers a kid wants or where their interests lie. Except that we all know that jobs are a choice while gender and sexual identity is not.

This is round earth stuff coming from a patent flat earther, who clearly disbelieves in God given difference and therefore feels compelled to rubbish it.

And given the very professional cynicism is imposed on kids who are born different, just straight out bullying from a clearly "obcessed" someone just not able to come to terms with that God given difference!

As for the articles he quoted from; they were clearly intended for very young folk unable to reconcile how they feel with how they look.

Look mate if you can't or won't help, just get yourself and your quite abysmal medieval stone age attitude out of the way!

And then we wonder why the suicide rate among young males is so high?

I believe there are far worse things to worry about, and that has to be the number of pious pedophiles hiding in plain sight in the private school system, and who seek to deflect attention from themselves and their covert activities by playing the anti gay saint?

Brainwashing? Well before you can wash them you need to find them and in your case that might be a bridge too far mate? In any event that is a case of the pot calling the kettle black!

Brainwashing is the particular forte of the cannot err religions. Where dogma and blind rigidity, have replaced reason and logic.

The education system seems to be in need of full privatisation now that the country is so diverse. The old, centralised programs on health, education and jobs are artefacts from a different era...as the safe school thing shows.

yep gw is going to kill us and yet allowing perverted ideology by people wanting to feel comfortable about their own choices is ok. Whta a gutless sick lot of pollies we haved to allow these engineers to mess with the minds of kids. They are as bad if not worse than the kiddie fiddlers.

What happens when kids stop believing in fairies? They will have to completely re-assess everything they have been taught about this subject.

What is wrong with saying that some people think that no one can tell you if you are a boy or a girl instead of stating it like a fact? It is the dishonesty in the way this material is presented which makes it unfit to be in the curriculum. It just shows how insecure are those people who prepare this material that they have to hide behind fairies and calling opinions facts.

The concern about the Safe Schools program is faux; and is, ironically, bullying.
