FLE Committee

It's not all about girls all the time either. Do you think young boys want to be talking about erections in front of young girls? Also uncomfortable.

The people have spoken and they don't want the classes combined. End of story.

In 4th grade it’s more important to learn about their cycle then boys’ body parts,

but only ONE lesson? My kid already knew about everything they talked about in far more detail.

But many students go into that lesson knowing nothing. What else did you want them to learn by 4th grade?

I don't think it is considered "old timey feelings" as a young girl who is told that she is going to bleed every month and how she needs to handle it. You may be comfortable with it--but most young girls need to be encouraged and helped through this. Sharing the room with boys is one more factor to make them uncomfortable.

It's old-timey to think that (a) this would be the first time she's hearing about it and (b) that it's anything to feel embarrassed about. Making it a taboo subject perpetuates the unnecessary uncomfortableness.

Separating the sexes for instruction does not mean it is "taboo." It is only common sense.

The PP has zero common sense and is just the usual left-wing troll who represents the extremist faction.

Wow. So if you don't want menstruation to be taboo subject then you're an extremist? Seems...extreme.

Separating the sexes for instruction does not make menstruation "taboo." It only gives the girls a space to ask questions about something that everyone else who hears the questions will be experiencing and will be interested in how it affects them.

Saying that girls need a “safe space” and would be “more comfortable” separated by gender tells them that it’s something that is an uncomfortable topic. And shouldn’t be discussed with boys.

It’s just biology. And pretty crappy that society continues to make it a taboo subject.

Why do YOU persist in making it a taboo the right of women to define for themselves what makes them uncomfortable?

FCPS students, staff, and parents (many of them women) vehemently opposed to mixing both sexes for lessons in human reproduction - that would include menstruation for girls and semen production for boys. Why do YOU have an issue with respecting women’s right to define what the boundaries are over their own bodies? That would include talking about their bodily functions in front of members of the opposite sex. You don’t get to define for them that right as a taboo.

Title IX was originally created to protect women rights against the travesty we are seeing today. It’s a shame that men have turned Title IX against women under this current administration, which has yielded to Lia Thomas walking around naked in the girls’ locker room, exposing his penis to girls who didn’t ask to see it, nor to whom they want to expose their undressed bodies to. That is exactly what FCPS wants to replicate in our schools - hence the desensitizing of our kids to their right to personal boundaries, and what you encourage with your persistence in disregarding girls’ rights to have discussions about their menstruation on their own space, without boys present.

It should be the end of story but you have people like Frisch and the local trans activist appointed by Tholen to the FLE committee trying to ignore the community’s common-sense preferences.

Completely agree, yet during the last School Board meeting, Karl Frisch declared the results of the FCPS survey invalid because, according to him, deranged right wing outsiders responded opposing the proposed changes. In his position as an At- Large Board member, shouldn’t he be more concerned about how is it that outsiders infiltrated the FCPS laptops issued to students and staff? Shouldn’t he be prioritizing the safety and security of students and staff since they accessed the survey via school issued computers? Why is it that FCPS hasn’t notified parents that hackers have access to our students’ computers issued by the school? Is Superintendent Reid already investigating this security breach? After all she was present when Frisch asserted that alleged accusation.

Unless we hear from Superintendent Reid whether the school computers were hacked or whether the survey results are valid because they were not, we don’t need to hear from her that FCPS regards the safety and security of all students and staff as their utmost priority. So far, her silence confirms that her role as the Superintendent is NOT to represent the FCPS community. In her own words, “The majority doesn’t always dictate, right?”

No, Mme, the majority rules. And you are about to see it.

I didn’t make these topics taboo. Society did.

And society will continue with status quo unless people teach their kids that these are normal, healthy bodily functions that aren’t shameful.

I’m sorry if you experienced personal trauma, but men are not the enemy. Our constructs are what hold women back.

No, we have not heard from “the people”.

Perpetuating the taboo of normal, healthy biological functions isn’t healthy for anyone.

Separating genders builds unnecessary divisiveness, reinforces stereotypes, and perpetuates inequalities.

“The people” who share your opinion are in the minority.

Mixed classes will hold back important questions they may have. No 10-year old boy or girl (except the class clown) is going to ask a question about nocturnal omissions in front of 30 of their classmates.

Then why do we have girls only schools? Studies show girls learn better in those environments.

You are either a teenage troll or a crazy person. Please stop. You don't like the results of the survey so they were "hacked".

The people have spoken. Deal with it.

You mean like there are two sexes? I'm all for reinforcing that stereotype.
It is clear here who you are supporting.

What i the point of trans girls receiving detailed information on periods? Or, Trans boys receiving detailed information on erections. They are going to experience neither if they fully transition.

There are two sexes. Genders and all of the evolving stereotypes around them are a different story.

Everyone should all receive the same info. It’s normal, healthy biology that everyone would benefit by learning.
