Things haven’t gone so well in the United Kingdom for the last hundred years or so. So the nation’s leaders have decided that what its school children really need is a celebration of the gay community in math, geography and science courses.
Yes. Gay math. Gay geography. And gay science.
The Telegraph UK has the bizarre details:
The initiative will be officially launched next month at the start of “LGBT History Month” — an initiative to encourage teaching about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual issues.
The lesson plans, spread across the curriculum, will be offered to all schools, which can choose whether or not to make use of them.
But critics last night called the initiative a poor use of public money which could distract from the teaching of “core” subjects.
Among the suggestions are:
Maths — teaching statistics through census findings about the number of homosexuals in the population, and using gay characters in scenarios for maths problems;
Can’t wait to hear how they explain that gays can’t multiply.
Design and technology — encouraging pupils to make symbols linked to the gay rights movement;
Like a giant limp wrist unfurling a rainbow flag. But be careful when spelling flag, kiddos.
Science – studying animal species where the male takes a leading role in raising young, such as emperor penguins and sea horses, and staging class discussions on different family structures, including same-sex parents;
And unicorns. Don’t forget the unicorns. They’re, like, the gayest animals ever.
Geography — examining the transformation of San Francisco’s Castro district in the 1960s from a working-class Irish area to the world’s first “gay neighbourhood”, and considering why homosexuals move from the countryside to cities;
While you’re at it, examine what an Indian was doing in the Village People.
Languages — using gay characters in role play scenarios, and teaching “LGBT vocabulary”
Role-playing gays. Now how could this go awry?
While this is definitely an outstanding addition to school curriculum, we can’t wait to see what happens when the United Kingdom’s celebration of the gay community in math, geography and science runs headlong into the United Kingdom’s celebration of the Muslim community in math, geography and science courses.
This should be interesting.

“LGBT vocabulary”
:|
Seriously though, am I the only one that didn't know Don Imus was in the Village People?
according to the UK census... only 3% of the UK is Queer..
Pink Swastika....
How did the ancestors of these limp wristed swells ever beat the Nazis? Queers and Muslims - they're taking it at both ends. Ohhhhhhhhhhh!
Ugh...
The only, and I mean the ONLY good point I can see in this is it will piss off the islamofascists.
This proposal is disgusting to me; it's a sop to a radical agenda, and is indoctrinating kids. I find this repulsive beyond words.
BTW, I happen to be gay, so please don't assume that all gays support this kind of kiddie-indoctrination crap. Leave the kids alone!
Thank you. Freedom of choice is one thing, cramming down the throats of children without the mental capacity to evaluate what they are being told is immoral and should be illegal.
Gay math, gay science, gay geology. I suspect the gay agenda isn't going to go over well with Muslim students in English schools. Non-Muslim students can be ignored or bullied into submission by the education establishment, the Muslims, however, will vigorously protest. So here's a big problem for the idiots and communists running English education; they support "gay rights" but they're afraid of Muslims who are vigorous protestors and apt to violence but they are also regarded as a persecuted minority whose demands need to be carefully considered.
Does England have a vigorous home schooling movement? If not, it's time for one. Get your kids out of the educational madhouse.
This happened in Germany: http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=93583
It is my understanding that it is happening lesser or greatly in other European countries (heck really many other countries around the world: (scroll down)http://www.schoolandstate.org/News/international.htm). Basically parents are being forced to get their children to the public school or else. I know it happened in England as well but cannot find it right now.
And it is not just homeschooling children that are being taken away from their parents or being forcefully registered in public schools OR laws being created to make homeschooling more difficult, but also overweight children are being taken away from parents... I can understand both sides of the point in that score, however I still believe this is a serious problem when it comes to liberties being taken away from people. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/world/overweight-girl-taken-from-family/story-e6frf7lf-1111113954041?from=public_rss
Then there are the cases where even if you question a doctor's diagnosis the children get taken away: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/children_shealth/6146654/Uppity-parents-who-challenge-the-authorities-risk-having-children-taken-away.html
European (and many other countries in the world) are crazy and the US is not that far behind.
What is going on?!?!
What is wrong with this planet? Okay this is utterly disgusting and you are right if a muslim boy or girl goes to the house and talks about how the school is teaching this I can assure you problems will arise.
Oh man, the one-liners in this article are Just Too Good.
"Can’t wait to hear how they explain that gays can’t multiply."
May be the best line of all time.
They might not be able to multiply but they can ask for a child and be given one. Neil Patrick Harris? Elton John? The magazine cover shots and gushing commentary in the media about their homosexual happy families would have sickened normal people just a few decades ago. All part of an advancing agenda per the marketing treatise "After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the 90's"
Look, when Billy's mom makes $50,000 a year, & his other mom makes $70,000 a year, the answer does'nt matter as long as you accept the idea of Billy's 2 moms.
"The lesson plans, spread across the curriculum, will be offered to all schools, which can choose whether or not to make use of them."
Ah, therein lies the rub.
So, when the lesson plans are turned down, guess what? Plan B will be enacted and it will be SHOVED down everyone's throat.
It's all going according to the plan...
If you like your sex-free math class, you can keep it.
