German politicians have slammed role playing games being taught to school children on how to pick up a gay partner.
The Regional Institute for School and Media LISUM in Berlin has introduced the controversial exercises for school kids from 14 upwards as part of a way of reducing prejudice against homosexuals.
But the role-playing has outraged politicians.
Education spokesman for the liberal FDP party Mieke Senftleben has demanded the teaching materials be replaced and said: "Education about homosexuality, discrimination and intolerance is necessary.
"But I think having such topics on how to pick up gay men in role playing games for youths is completely wrong. We are talking about 14 year old pupils."
Local MP for education, Juergen Zoellner, of the Social Democrats said: "The authors behind the idea used a very common language among pupils and the exercises proved to be suitable for school.
"However, I will ask the authors to see whether they can reach the same goals with a less colloquial language."
