[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The current FCPS school board does not have a single GOP, or even independent, member.  They are all democrats.

The current board has repeatedly insisted FCPS schools absolutely must include certain books in FCPS libraries because of “equity” and support for LGTBQIA+ students.  They insist your children must be able to see illustrations like this in the school library (except, the children’s version is not blurred out).

Would you feel comfortable showing fellatio drawings to your own children? [/quote]

It’s not a dick.

NP.  That's your response?  How incredibly typical for a Democrat.[/quote]

So a person sucking a strap-on is appropriate material for an 11yr old to have access to, or be tempted to review it because they saw it promoted during the American Library Association Banned Book promotion?

11 year olds aren’t in HS.

More lies. [/quote]

Do your research. It's in middle school libraries and high school libraries, despite author now backtracking and saying that her book was for high school and up. Whatever, it's all silly because the content is still porn. It's just GAY porn so for some reason everyone is defensive of it as an LGBT book. 
 I'm not that hung up on it in general b/c the kids all have phones in their pockets and can stumble on this stuff at any time if they want to. And I'm all about anyone being able to access porn if they want to in the public library (would prefer age restricted to 18 and up), but I definitely get that it's weird to have pornographic drawings available in the SCHOOL library.[/quote]
Kobabe, the author of Gender Queer, is also “clarifying” now that the explicitly sexual drawings and content in her book were intended originally for her parents (???) and not for kids. Then, why is it that the FCPS School Board intends for these explicit imagery to be shown to our kids by insisting that this book belongs in our school libraries?

Pornographic images should not belong in any school library the same way that, save for brothels, they would not be at any place of work.  Besides, we really need understand that the distinction between what a child can be exposed to and what an adult can deem appropriate or entertaining is abysmal.

Furthermore, any child is at risk of becoming desensitized by pornography, particularly students with developmental delays who could internalize those images as something normal or expected of them to do with others, including their caretakers.

And, yes, kids could access porn through their cell phones, just as much as they could have access to alcohol and tobacco at home, or through a friend’s, yet it doesn’t mean FCPS school cafeterias should start serving them to the students because they would be breaking the law.  The same applies to pornography in the school library, it’s still illegal for minors. [/quote]

It’s not porn. You clearly didn’t read it. [/quote]
