The first objection to teaching these things isn't "they are not true" --because they are true. No, the objection to this content is:
- it makes kids feel bad
- it's sexual and grotesque
- it's complex and confusing
- It makes kids hate America
The objections center around fears of the emotional impact of true information.
It ignores the emotional impact of not learning these things.
The horror a little girl will feel having her first period with no information.
The shame and inferiority little Black children will feel learning a history where their ancestors did nothing but serve until graciously freed by their betters.
The disgust a child will feel when they see themselves as an abomination since in all of nature they have been taught gender is simple and binary.
The alienation to living things that comes from not seeing humans as a part of the tree of life.
