Gay ‘Marriage’ Guarantees Gay Sex Education

Don't forget: gay 'marriage' guarantees gay sex-education and parents will have no say.

Right now parents can push back - with some success - against the radical LGBT 'Safe Schools' agenda, but once the law says that homosexual 'marriage' is normal and right, schools MUST teach that homosexual behaviour is normal and right. There is no logical way out, and parents will just have to wear it.

Marxist ideologue Roz Ward, co-author of Safe Schools, makes clear the two stand and fall together:

'Anti-bullying head links Safe Schools to same-sex marriage"
• THE AUSTRALIAN, MARCH 10

One of the key architects of the Safe Schools Coalition made a speech at a gay marriage rally claiming the anti-bullying program was being undermined by “state-sponsored homophobia” that prevented gay and transgender people from marrying.

La Trobe University academic Roz Ward, who co-developed Safe Schools and manages the program in Victoria, linked the schools program to the politically contested issue of same-sex marriage in May 2013.

At the time of Ms Ward’s speech, prime minister Julia Gillard and opposition leader Tony Abbott were both against broadening the criteria of marriage. The Safe Schools program was running in 100 schools.

“It is a total contradiction to say we want (the) Safe Schools ¬Coalition but you can’t get married to the person that you love,” Ms Ward told a rally in Melbourne. “(Teachers) have to work in this context where we have this state-sponsored homophobia in this discriminatory law and still fight against homophobia.

“The question of equal marriage is important in every single school that I go to, because I talk to teachers and they say to me: ‘How can we continue to fight against homophobia when the students will say to us that same-sex couples or transgender people cannot get married to the people they love? The law says it’s not equal and then we need to turn around as teachers and say: well it should be but it’s not’.”

The Safe Schools Coalition is ostensibly an apolitical anti-bullying program designed to promote acceptance and understanding of children dealing with questions of sexuality and gender.

Parts of the program have come under fire from conservatives who argue that it pushes a leftist ideological agenda and transcends its pursuit to reduce bullying of gay and transgender students. It has been criticised for promo¬ting a politically correct approach to sex education, with teachers told not to refer to students as “boys and girls”, as the terms are “heterosexist”, and pupils as young as 11 encouraged to role-play as gay teenagers.

Ms Ward oversees youth-orientated projects at Gay and Lesbian Health Victoria, which gets $315,000 a year from the state government.

Railing against a “push to fit people into gender constructs that promote heterosexuality’’ at a Marxist conference in Melbourne last year, she alluded that Safe Schools was part of a broader strategy to change society.

“Programs like the Safe Schools Coalition are making some difference but we’re still a long way from liberation,’’ she said. “Marxism offers the hope and the strategy needed to create a world where human sexuality, gender and how we relate to our bodies can blossom in extraordinarily new and amazing ways that we can only try to imagine today.”

More than 500 schools have voluntarily signed up to the program, with Victoria the only state to make it mandatory in all schools except independent ones by 2018.

The federal government, which has provided $8 million in funds, has announced a review, while the Victorian opposition has called on Premier Daniel Andrews to reverse the decision to roll it out to all Victorian state secondary schools.

A Safe Schools Coalition spokesperson told The Australian yesterday that “individuals are entitled to hold their own political views’’, adding that “our focus is on ensuring that school is a safe and inclusive place for all young people’’.
