That is EXACTLY the point - to deny (either deliberately or through omission) basic sex ed to as many students as possible; to block understanding and acceptance of everything other than the straight, white, conservative christian patriarchy.
"please sign this form for mondays lesson. Please sign this form for tuesdays lesson. Please sign this form for wednesdays lesson"
"how many forms are there?"
"theres two weeks of discussions, so please sign these 14 forms"
... and teen pregnancies will spike.
Do we need yet another trial of how dumb denying sex ed is on a societal scale? Do we want more orphans and teen mothers stuck in abusive relationships?
Fucking idiocy.
Do we want more orphans and teen mothers stuck in abusive relationships?
The unfortunate answer to that question is yes, they do. Uneducated people vote blue, abused mothers vote what their abuser votes for out of fear. They need to feed the cycle that the church started and we are just starting to climb out of.
There is a reason that the church is anti-sex-ed, it doesn't survive without people raised in it.
"good news, we made sex-ed opt in, and then we removed accesible condoms... and then made AHS semi-private! On an unrelated note, teen pregnancies and STDs have risen drastically, so we need to bring god back into schools!"
Same reason people convicted of raping children here in the US heavily push for the limiting of school sex education, its statistically proven to significantly limit the number of children who report being raped.
While most children are sexually abused by their family, and as such giving the abusers the option to opt out of sex education for their children has proven useful, you still have to worry about their classmates catching it, and so the more of them you can keep from knowing what rape is and how to report it, the better your odds of getting away with it are.
Some kids are gonna have an even harder time building their sex lives as they grow up than others.
