Sexy Sex Ed?
There was a time when a teacher asking students to write sexual fantasy stories would have faced firing or criminal charges. That time is not today. Current school teachers seem to be infatuated with sex, sexual orientation, gender preferences, pronouns, and identity. In this blog, I’ve written about books like Gender Queer and Let’s Talk About It that have been used in class and are in many libraries. These books are inappropriate for school-age readers but, they are merely the tip of the iceberg.
Talking About Casual Sex
Let’s Talk About It is a graphic novel (comic-style) book by Erika Moen and Matthew Nolan and is published by Penguin Random House. On the front cover the book is described as, “The teen’s Guide to Sex, Relationships, and Being a Human.” On the back, it states the book is, “Open, modern, and intelligent. An essential addition to any library.” Those are the claims but, is it appropriate for school libraries, public libraries, and children? As always, that is the question I want to answer for parents as I review the book.
