Wal-Mart Drops Gay Sex How-To Manual for Teens after LifeSiteNews.com Expose

BENTONVILLE, AR, November 15, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A graphic sex-ed manual promoting lesbianism to teenage girls is now offered for sale by Wal-Mart in the United States. Called "irresponsible and obscene" and by the Institute for Canadian Values, the material contains explicit directions for engaging in oral/anal sexual acts. The book encourages same-sex experimentation, telling girls that only 10 percent of the population is actually heterosexual, while 80 percent is "mixed" or bi-sexual.

Produced by St. Stephens' Community House in Toronto, the book titled "The Little Black Book for Girlz: A Book on Healthy Sexuality" caused a storm of controversy earlier this fall when parents and pro-family groups first became aware of the books' content after it was published in September.

The manual was further condemned for using obscene and derogatory language. Examples include a section entitled "My First Time F***ing a Girl" and the statement "If you need someone to represent God The Holiness, then for me, it's a fat black dyke."

The manual contains misleading and dangerous information on "safe" sex devises, assuring teenagers that condom use is 100 percent effective in preventing the transmission of disease. That statement contradicts the World Health Organization's recent admission that condom use fails to protect against HIV/AIDS transmission up to 20 percent of the time, crucial information missing from the manual.

Another section on "safe" lesbian sex acts, entitled "How to use a dental dam," encourages girls to engage in such dangerous behaviour as sewing latex squares used in dentistry into the crotch of their underwear "for added fun."

Wal-Mart says the book, sold for $8.50, is "a great mix of real-life examples and life-saving info."

Advertising the manual as "not just a book about sex, but a look at girl culture by teenagers," the book is praised as "No stuffy school textbook," with "No nosy adults" involved.

"It's all stuff that youth need to know…The Little Black Book for Girlz is an important, take--anywhere empowerment guide. Girls shouldn't leave their teen years without it."

Wal-Mart recently joined the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, which celebrated the involvement of the corporation as "part of the company's ongoing commitment to advancing diversity among all of its associate, supplier and customer bases."

The company contributed $60,000 in 2006 to the activist group Out & Equal, an organization dedicated to promoting the homosexual lifestyle, including same-sex marriage, in the workplace. Wal-Mart ran a full-page ad in the Out & Equal 2006 Workplace Summit Program Guide stating the company's commitment to supporting the goals of the Out & Equal Summit.

In 2005, Human Rights Campaign, the largest homosexual activist lobby organization in the U.S., applauded Wal-Mart for adopting a new definition of family that included same-sex partners, where recognized under state law.

Yes they do. The reason the book has caused an uproar, is the way it is present "they must be in love" in one passage in the book, implying they are homosexual, and not acting on normal instinct which is males raising the young.<<

Somebody above also suggested there were problems with the teaching guide too.

I saw that, yes. Shocking to say the least. I have a lot of family across the Bible belt, and was surprised to see churches there, and even churches here the NE refusing to shop there after the last few articles on their joining the GLBT chamber of commerce, and donating to same sex marriage organization act out. I think their returning to "Merry Christmas" may not have as much of an effect as Wal Mart hopes it will. It seems too much of a "throw them a crumb or two" tactic.

[gidget7]

LOL I saw that, but hadn't seen the teaching guide before then. Now that I have, it's more of a lie than it was before!

>>Penguins really can be gay

Central Park Zoo's gay penguins ignite debate<<

For some reason I found it funny they are "chin strap" penguins.

Yup, that's why I store my Drano on the coffee table...if I put it out of reach, they might try to drink it.

"your posting seems to be an endless series of seeking conflict after conflict"

Paging Dr. Freud.

...They are not homosexual, and not in love. They are doing what all species do, live by instinct.

not too sure I get your point, there, Gidget.

You mean Lola Granola was just a front? Nope, I won't believe it. He's just in touch with his "feminine side". :)

[gidget7]

The book specifically states "They must be in love" and the teaching guide for the book explains homosexuality to the students.

Penguins instinctively follow their natural inclination for males to raise/nurture the young, females are the providers of food. It has nothing to do with any sex at all. It's not love or homosexuality. It's their species instincts, as they were made, that is, males as nurturers. There are other species that males play that role as well.

ok. well, hey, cool tagline!

And speaking of penguins, I've never been a big fan of Java, either...
