WINNIPEG, Manitoba, September 12, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - High school girls in Manitoba may soon be reading detailed instructions on lesbian sex acts as part of their normal sex education curriculum, after the Ministry of Education accepted a manual emphasizing homosexuality as an optional resource for high school educators.
The Little Black Book--A Book on Healthy Sexuality Written by Grrrls [sic] for Grrrls claims to be a youth-friendly guide to teenage sexuality, offering girls advice and information.
In reality it reads like a guide to lesbian pornography, with section titles such as “My First Time F***ing a Girl” and “How to Use a Dental Dam” (a “safe sex” device for oral/anal sex).
The guide contains dangerously inaccurate information on “safe sex” practices, assuring girls that using devices to reduce sexually transmitted infections offers reliable protection, without including warnings of the failure rates of such devices. The World Health Organization warns that condoms, even when used properly, have a failure rate of 20 percent, crucial information missing from the manual.
“This is one of the most irresponsible and obscene school documents that we have ever seen,” said Joseph Ben-Ami, executive director for the Institute for Canadian Values, in a press release. “Using this as a guide to healthy sexuality for teenage girls would be one of the most potentially harmful decisions that any school could make.”
Ben-Ami called the book a “veiled propaganda piece,” saying it “undermines healthy parent-child relationships, substitutes voodoo myths for actual science, and provides advice that, if followed, will certainly result in real and serious harm to those who follow it.”
The guide encourages girls to explore lesbian sexuality, making the unfounded claim that only 10 percent of the population is heterosexual, with 80 percent being “mixed” or bi-sexual.
“The guide does not just endorse homosexual practice--it virtually promotes it, and portrays those who object to such practices, particularly parents, as being homophobes, stating that ‘A lot of parents are homophobic, and so are their children until they get minds of their own,” said Ben-Ami.
In one of the worst examples of biased and indefensible statements contained in the manual, the guide makes the out-of-context statement that “[i]f you need someone to represent God The Holiness, then for me, it’s a fat black dyke.”
“What this statement has to do with healthy emotional and sexual development is beyond us,” Ben-Ami said.
The manual was produced by St. Stephen’s Community House in Toronto, with funding from all three levels of government. The organization’s financial statements for the year ending March 31, 2006, show a total of $7,841,131 in government funding.
That number includes contributions from Canada’s federal government ($1,543,108), the province of Ontario ($3,968,825) and the city of Toronto ($1,156,454, as well as an additional $1,175,744 in fees from the city).
Page 24 of St. Stephen’s 2006 annual report lists the numerous donors, funders and partners of St. Stephen’s. Among the Foundations is included the School Sisters of Notre Dame of Ontario and among the Partners and in-kind Supporters is included The Toronto District Catholic School Board.
Ben-Ami told LifeSiteNews.com the fact that St. Stephen’s management would undertake such an extremely inappropriate project indicates a current serious problem with the overall organization.
“What's happened”, he stated, “over the last couple of decades is that a lot of these groups, including groups that have very strong religious affiliation, have slowly and surely been taken over and co-opted by left wing, radical groups and their good name is now being used to advance a radical social agenda.”
The book is about to be released by the Province of Manitoba, according to a Global Winnipeg news report from September 6. Repeated calls to the Manitoba Minister of Education’s office, Peter Bjornson, for confirmation of the book’s acceptance by the Ministry and for comment, were not returned.
The Institute for Family Values has just advised that the St. Stephen’s House web site version of The Little Black Book has now been removed from public viewing and replaced with a page indicating that the page does not exist. Google cache only brings up a black table of the former page with all content missing. No explanation has been given on the St. Stephen’s web site, although viewers may be misled to believe that the offending material does not exist. Ben-Ami states this development indicates his organization's campaign has been having an effect.
The Institute for Family Values will send whatever evidence they have of the offending material to those who send an email with their contact information to:

If you've had a root canal, you remember the holders the dentist screws onto healthy teeth, to hold the plastic shield. He then pokes a hole in the plastic, around the one tooth that needs the work.
LOL. I can't do the definition thing, but I can tell you what something is used for.
Sorry Jotmo. ;-)
It's a small latex sheet about the size of a kleenex, often flavoured.
You can pretty much figure out what it's for.
I wouldn't try it too often.
;-)
I always thought there was more to it than that time Tiffany Thiessen kissed that other girl in the hottub.....
:-P
Oh... oral condom, basically...
I do wonder how fisting is even possible... til I realise an entire child can fit through that part of the female body.....
Everyone needs to know this. It's amazing how many people - even those who frequent FR - still are not aware of what homosexual activists and their assistants have planned for us and our children.
child = newborn baby
Just another homo ploy to access kids for their perverted fun and pleasure. Where is Ellen Degenerate when needed?
Typically an oral surgeon or endodontist uses a dental dam when performing a root canal. How one uses this in oral sex is beyond me.....
Most women have pretty small hands, I wouldnt advise any woman to give Janet Reno an opportunity though. She is a big woman.
That's exactly what this is. Bjornson sounds dirty as hell -- he's acting out mens rea. An honest person would be out front asking what these people have done with all those subsidies, and just who are they anyway? And he'd add for the benefit of lucid understanding, that there was no way his office would approve this stuff for distribution to public schools.
Instead -- silence and evasion.
I could be wrong in saying the St. Stephens Community House is Catholic, But the School Sisters of Notre Dame arent??
Not a nice thought....
If you read the footnotes, you realize Monica should've used one on Clinton's uh... tush.
Obviously 'dental dams' are widely available in a variety of fruit flavors. I think I saw a variety packet in cereal boxes. (/sarcasm)
I've no clue where one would get such an item outside a medical supply outlet or maybe ordering online.
Good to see you, lentulus!
I'm starting to think that a lot of what are called "conspiracy theories" (especially by leftists) are nothing but stark fact.
School Sisters of Notre Dame NAMA An international teaching and missionary order of vowed Catholic women over 5000 members strong.
