[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no problem with it. We’re all mammals, nothing we do naturally is anything to be ashamed of. [/quote] That is true. Also true that tweens are awkward AF and may feel more comfortable in gender segregated classes for when learning about their bodies. [/quote] Probably because they have internalized shame from their parents. Kids learn this stuff, you know. They don’t come naturally equipped with it as any toddler can tell you. Normalize what is natural, and maybe you won’t have male legislators taxing period products and thinking ectopic pregnancies can end in a healthy term infant. [/quote] Children are not blank slates. The tabula rasa theory of people is incorrect. Modesty and shame are developmental, not imposed from others. If you're going to use psychology as your justification, don't get it wrong.[/quote] You think kids don’t learn and internalize our hang ups? That girls are born wanting to cover themselves in burkas in 100 degree heat and humidity and quit sports so they can hide natural processes? Modesty and shame may be developmental, but come on now with that. [/quote]
