A 🧵:
SIECUS, The Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States, began in '64 w/Dr. Mary Calderon, a Medical Director at Planned Parenthood. They're pushing Comprehensive Sexuality Education nationwide for grades K-12.

According to this linked article, Playboy and/or Hugh Hefner supported SIECUS financially. So, were they connected to the porn and/or sex toy industry? If they were, are they still? ...

Important to note that SIECUS is a recommended resource by the CA Dept. of Ed. under the California Healthy Youth Act and the CA Health Framework. The Future of Sex Ed (FoSA) (exposed in my recent thread) is also a resource there:
cde.ca.gov/ls/he/se/docum…
SIECUS held a Webinar Series on topics pertaining to Comprehensive Sexuality Education. At least one such webinar was, "intended for parents, students, educators, school administrators..."

The webinar series was sponsored by b-Vibe, a sex toy company wanting to advance CSE.
A Sept. 14, 2020 Press Release on an erotic retail website discusses b-Vibe sponsoring the SIECUS webinar series.

They expressed *thrill to partner w/SIECUS on topics a part of:

“b-Vibe’s mission to make sex-positive education available to everyone."

The President and CEO of SIECUS announces the sponsorship of b-Vibe and their goals:

SIECUS & Comprehensive Sexuality Ed promote sex-positivity...you may wonder what that means?

It's a loaded term & history. These articles discuss it in fantasies, pleasure, feminism, porn, sex work, CSE, etc.

At one of the SIECUS webinars, the host shares about advancing Comprehensive Sex Ed and says, "We are joined by some amazing experts in the field." One of their experts has spoken several times at the Adult Video News Conference in Las Vegas.

Their same *expert* has spoken about BDSM and kink on the following media podcast:

One of the SIECUS webinars discussed Sexual Citizenship. SIECUS & Sexual Citizenship are mentioned below from Stanford University. What happens on college & university campuses will influence K-12 schools. Some resources here already exist in K-12.

SIECUS has a new activism launch called, "Educate Us: SIECUS in Action", to bring their Comprehensive Sexuality (pleasure-focused) Education to K-12 nationwide.

They are also working to train people nationwide through a new Sex Ed Collaborative effort that focuses on the same lenses of social justice, intersectionality, etc. that I exposed in the recent FoSE thread.

SIECUS is connected to UNESCO (see link).

FoSE, SIECUS, Amaze, Planned Parenthood and many others are all connected. This is a Kinsey-related agenda to bring systemic change through their radical ideologies and graphic sex education.

Stand up to this.

healtheducationresources.unesco.org/organizations/…
Parents and community members are right to question this agenda and stand up to it. When you hear of books like GenderQueer, Beyond Magenta, or S.E.X. by Heather Corinna used in public schools, that's Comprehensive Sexuality Education and this will worsen over time.
Is this content grooming? For me, undoubtedly. SIECUS also recommends Scarleteen which produces content like this:

A thread on the recently formed Sex Education Collaborative (2020) which is made up of 20+ groups now working to advance Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) in K-12 schools nationwide. They appear to want CSE passed by the Federal Government.

sexeducationcollaborative.org/about/mission Image
Clip to follow:

"One of the SEC's core values is Comprehensive, high-quality sex education that is grounded in equity and social justice. Our collaborative is committed to challenging and dismantling systems of oppression by promoting equity and inclusion within sex education."
A key Critical Race Theory scholar is quoted from the start:

"The term intersectionality, coined by a Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw, emphasizes how our collective identities affect our experiences and behaviors in relation to inequality, injustice, exploitation, and oppression."

A thread on SEL:

Social Emotional Learning is designed to combine with health & lead us into the CDC & the Association for Supervision & Curriculum Design's (ASCD) Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) Community/Healthy schools model.

…j96fs3py0oq1b-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/upl…
The WSCC model may be found on the Centers for Disease Control's (CDC) link below. At this link, scroll down and click "Visit Our Virtual Healthy School" and interact within each room.

cdc.gov/healthyschools…
"Transformative SEL is a process whereby young people & adults... facilitate co-learning to critically examine root causes of inequity and to develop collaborative solutions that lead to personal, communal, and societal well-being."

My recent 🧵exposed Comprehensive Sexuality Ed (CSE) in K-12 & all subjects from Social Justice Pedagogy w/the lenses of Intersectionality, Equity, Language, etc. "before heteronormative and cisnormative values and assumptions become more deeply ingrained and less mutable"
See 🧵
As efforts ramp up to establish CSE nationwide, for all grades, it is important to be aware of the worldview & ideology of the activist groups pushing, "Sex Ed for Social Change", & messaging that, "Sex Ed is a Vehicle for Racial Justice" w/their "allies"

siecus.org/sex-ed-is-a-ve…
What is Comprehensive Sexuality Ed emphasizing? Clearly, sex education has changed. However, understanding the foundation & framework of this new model is significant. Let's examine a document from the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF):

FoSE Thread:
"...the most surprising piece was how much, um, evidence there is for sex education in elementary school. A lot of what goes on, um, in the elementary schools is done with not necessarily the label of sex education class so...that was...really, really gratifying."
"The other piece that was surprising...in a good way, was how much in general we found sex education going on outside of the health education classroom, even in middle and high school...in literature classes, in math classes, in social studies classes, in P.E. classes and art"
"the great piece about that is you know it enables there to be some flexibilty about where we can put in sex education lessons and it allows some of the strongest teachers who want to take on these topics to be able to do it who may not necessarily be health teachers per se."

A 🧵...

Three years ago today I joined many in Sacramento at the Instructional Quality Commission (IQC) meeting at the CA Dept. of Ed to address serious concerns over the Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) aligned Health Framework update pushed by Planned Parenthood, etc.
We warned this would spread to other states (it has & is). We warned of the negative impact from teaching graphic sexual content to a young audience (it has & is).

Some books removed from the final framework have still been taught in CA classes like S.E.X. by Heather Corinna...
Comprehensive Sexuality Ed (CSE) is integrated with other topics: Critical Theories, Social Justice, Intersectionality, Equity, Language, Social Emotional Learning/Transformative SEL. These are then integrated into all subjects & nearing us to the Community Schools Model (WSCC).

A thread...

In Dec. 2018, I was told sex ed had changed in CA. I began researching and connecting with other parents doing likewise. I learned that Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) traced back to UNESCO, UNFPA, the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), etc.
CA's Comprehensive Sex Ed was passed under AB329 in 2015 and became law in 2016 with required implementation by 2018.

CSE is supported by Planned Parenthood, SIECUS, Advocates for Youth (formerly the Center for Population Options), Future of Sex Ed, the CDC, W.H.O., GLSEN, etc.
Since Toronto, Canada implemented CSE prior to California and since Planned Parenthood is behind this, I began researching the content they created for teens. Exploring areas where greater political freedom exists, helps see what may be on the way here...
