Much has now been made of the hideously politically biased “work” of Representative Henry Waxman, liberal Democrat of California, who put out a ridiculous report denouncing sexual abstinence programs used in some good schools these days. Like a typical liberal, he’s a apparently in favor of teaching sexual techniques to the young ‘uns as early and graphically and thoroughly as possible; and shuns the very notion of teaching abstinence.
Makes you wonder why, doesn’t it?
Anyway, Brian McNicoll makes a mockery—well deserved—of Waxman’s work in his quick piece called Sloppy work. (Yes I spent my morning at TownHall obviously).
Memo to all those who teach abstinence-based sex education: If you teach kids that masturbation, or anything other than intercourse, can cause pregnancy or that AIDS can be transferred through sweat or tears, please stop. The story, as we say in the newspaper business, writes itself. No need to embellish.
There. Does that take care of it, Mr. Waxman?
Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., made a lot of news with a report on the state of abstinence education in America. It cherry-picked a few examples of teachers going overboard to paint all of true abstinence-ed as a pack of prude-perpetrated lies that represent little more than an end-run around the supposed wall between church and state.
