| Britain: Taxpayers funding masturbation guides for young girls |
| 2003-09-29 |
| Hat tip: Kim du Toit Fury erupted last night over a book telling kids as young as nine how to pleasure themselves. It includes a cartoon of a girl fondling herself in a bath. The 16-page guide â called 4 You â also contains explicit diagrams of how to manipulate female genitals. It tells youngsters itâs normal to be attracted to people of the same gender. The book was published yesterday by the Government-funded sexual health charity fpa. Leaflets about the book, which costs £15 for 50 copies, are being sent to all schools in England and Wales in the next few days. But head teachers, family values campaigners and education experts branded it inappropriate for its target age group of nine to 11-year-olds. Nick Seaton of the Campaign for Real Education said: âParents will be horrified that this sort of pornographic material is being targeted at primary school children.â However, fpa chief executive Anne Weyman said: âThis booklet will help dispel playground myths.â |

| #5 FWIW, you can see the "fpa" (Or Family Planning Association) press release here. It does't go into the details of the book. Britain's sex education and youngsters' attitudes towards sex are seriously f'ed up (if you pardon the expresseion). We have one of, if not the, highest rates of teenage pregnancy in Western Europe. I won't pretend I know the answer to this sorry situation, but showing nine-years olds how little girls should masturb8 in the bath seems to me a definite step in the wrong direction. Meanwhile, the government's social engineers are also busy telling schoolkids how to get high. |

| #3 However, fpa chief executive Anne Weyman said: "This booklet will help dispel playground myths." This might sound strange, but when I was nine, we weren't talking about beating off or humping girls and we didn't care. |

| #1 I'm thinking this guide could be classified as kiddy porn here in the states. Don't know if it's available on-line (who am I kidding?), but I would be very wary about down-loading it if I was you. |
