“I’ve seen a ton on the facebooks about “thanking veterans for their service.” As a veteran let me just be very straightforward and honest with you. We didn’t “serve our country”; we don’t actually serve our brothers/sisters or our neighbors. We serve the interests of Capital. We never risked our lives or spent months on deployment away from our family and friends so they can have this abstract concept called “freedom”. We served big oil; big coal; Coca-Cola; Kellogg, Brown, and Root and all the other big Capital interests who don’t know a fucking thing about sacrifice. These people will never have to deal with the loss of a loved one or the physical and/or psychological scars that those who “serve”, and their families, have to deal with for the rest of their lives. The most patriotic thing someone can do is to tell truth to power and dedicate yourself to building power to overthrow these sociopathic assholes. I served with some of the most real and genuine people I’ve ever met. You’ll never see solidarity like the kind of solidarity you experience when your life depends on the person next to you. But most of us didn’t join for that; we joined because we were fucking poor and didn’t have many other options.“

Grade 1 Students in Grade 1 will be taught the proper names for body parts – something child-abuse investigators have long urged. They will also learn how to recognize non-verbal signals, such as facial expressions and tone of voice, to better communicate with others. Grade 2 In Grade 2, students will learn about bodily changes and development, verbal and physical violence, and the concept that “no means no.” Grades 3-4 Grade 3 students will learn about same-sex relationships, while the physical, emotional and social impacts of puberty will move from Grade 5 to Grade 4. Grades 5-6 In Grade 5, students will continue learning about puberty, including menstruation and spermatogenesis, and how these processes relate to reproduction. Students in Grade 6 will learn about masturbation and “gender expression.” They will also be educated on how to build healthy relationships and consent. Grades 7-8 In Grades 7-8, students will learn about the dangers of “sexting.” They will also discuss contraception, anal and oral sex, and ways to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. Grades 9-10 Teaching materials on mental health, previously relegated to older grades, will be introduced in Grade 9. Grade 9 students will also explore gender identity, sexual orientation and the resources available for support. In Grade 10, students will continue to learn what factors influence sexual decision-making, including personal values, peer and family expectations, and media messages. Under the current sex education program, Grades 9 and 10 students focus on promoting healthy sexuality, preventing sexually transmitted infections, and identifying the stages of sexuality. Grades 11-12 Similarly to the existing program, students in Grades 11 and 12 will focus on how to use decision-making skills to create healthy relationships. They will also learn about reducing the stigma around mental illness, and taking proactive health measures.
Ontario Sex Education update (http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2015/02/23/what-ontarios-students-will-learn-with-the-updated-sex-education-curriculum.html)
Do you understand how fantastic this is? Sex Ed has not been changed since the time that I was born and now we’re going to be have education on gender identities, sexual orientations are going to be taught from a young age on the importance of consent and the enforcement of how “no is no”. Older students are going to be learning about mental health and how to reduce the stigma around it. This is not the training of “abstinence is key”. Take note America

Well this is absolutely wonderful. This is how sex ed should be taught.
