[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone asked their kids if they would prefer separating FLE by gender or doing a combined class? My 6th grader is solidly in the camp of keeping them separate.

Also, thinking back on my own experience, the girls asked a lot of questions that they would never would have asked with boys in the room. [/quote]

My kids are in college now, but they spoke about FLE as being hugely mortifying when they were in FCPS.  I can only imagine the horror if they were taught in a combined class.  Anyone thinking that's a good idea needs their head examined.[/quote]

If teachers would just stop being biased, if we just combine the classes instead of separate them, then children will stop being mortified and will be comfortable with themselves and each other!!!!![/quote]

Then why have separate bathrooms or locker rooms? Why separate kids at all if the goal is to make sure that they're comfortable with themselves and each other?[/quote]

False comparison. Let me turn it in around with an actual analogy--if boys and girls are so uncomfortable with each other, all learning should be single-sex. Bathrooms and lockers are completely different, and I think you know that,[/quote]

DP.  Ridiculous.  We're talking about sex ed, not math and English.  There is no need for boys and girls to have to sit in the same room and learn about one another's sexuality when they can learn about it much more comfortably in single sex classes.  I think you just like to argue.
