If you ask some (okay, many) conservative pundits, Democrats are “grooming” children. As in, grooming them to be abused by pedophiles. Some Republicans have even accused Democrats of being pedophiles themselves.
The grooming charges lump together concerns that kids are being introduced too early to sexually explicit material, to the existence of transgender people, and to non-heterosexual sexual orientations. In March, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed what critics have dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, a measure that discourages teachers from discussing gender identity or sexual orientation in classrooms. Versions of the measure have been proposed in at least a dozen other states. Referring to the bill, DeSantis’s spokesperson Christina Pushaw tweeted, “If you’re against the Anti-Grooming Bill, you are probably a groomer or at least you don’t denounce the grooming of 4-8 year old children.” A pastor even organized an “anti-grooming” rally at Disney’s headquarters in California.
This type of rhetoric is damaging in its own right. As the commentator David French writes in his newsletter, “Throwing around accusations of pedophilia, sympathy for pedophilia, grooming, or sympathy for grooming is a recipe for threats and violence”—an assessment that some historians endorse. This latest pedophilia panic overlaps with the false beliefs of the QAnon movement, which fueled the Pizzagate incident in 2016.

I’m shocked that the same people who create sexually explicit material for kids say that sexually explicit material is good for kids.
The word “grooming” has scared the bejesus out of the left. It’s like the phrase “intelligent design.” They have to try to nip it in the bud before it flowers. The left is used to defining our world in their evil image.

The same researchers who told you being vaccinated would keep you from getting or passing on covid?!?
This is the script to a T… claim some “expert” endorses some insanity to justify it.
Fixed it.
Remember the clip from the Kentucky high school a few months ago, in which students and teachers were simulating sex acts in the school gym as others looked on? That is the trajectory of all this, and it IS grooming. Moreover, “grooming” can have more than one meaning. It can mean initiating children into certain attitudes and behaviors concerning sex, and/or it can mean recruitment of those children into sexual activity - whether sooner or later - with teachers and other adults.
Partisan Media Shill and Stooge alert.
“Don’t call it grooming” said the groomer.
*puffs on pipe* Certainly, bu11sh1t could be a factor. Let us apply for a government grant!
I want to point out that at this point, you HAVE to give a cr4p. There’s no way to stay neutral on this point. With all respect.
“FES0844 to Scarlett156: Just let children be children!!!!!”
I agree. If people had to be taught about sex, how did there get to be so many people in the world? Especially because a lot of people consider us “overpopulated.” (?)
You’re right and it’s nothing new: This is how crime reproduces and disperses itself.
And of course, a majority of Democrats are very stupid. And a big majority of that majority are criminal! :D
“IC Ken to Scarlett156
Funny you never hear a peep out of NAMBLA did they change their name?”
Somehow, nobody feels like doing any research on that.
The writer of this piece should do a follow-up study on sex researchers and how successful they are. Ya know what I’m saying?
And now boys and girls, it’s time for tranny story time:
The solidarity circle chants,
Orgy-porgy, Ford and fun,
Kiss the girls and make them One.
Boys at One with girls at peace;
Orgy-porgy gives release
The circle of twelve alternating girls and boys prepare themselves to momentarily lose their unique identities and join together as one unified existence. Similar to the socialization that takes place during night time conditioning, chants and rituals are used to control individual sexual responses in a spiritual way.
I remember that as a small child I wanted to call the cops on my mom for drawing me a little picture and describing “it” to me. Not only did I not believe it, I didn’t want to believe it. Thank Gd “calling social services” was not possible in those days.
But that’s the way it should happen. When parents abdicate their responsibilities to the “public education system” something is bound to get really out of whack.
Sex Ed “researchers” are advocates for unconventional sexual activities. They seek to normalize what are fringe behaviors. Their expertise is in abnormal sexual relations.
Of course. I DO give a crap, but not about the validity of their expert opinion. I should have been more precise. Not neutral on the subject, I just don’t think their opinion counts for a fart in a hurricane.
