        Excellent!

            From Snopes, this is true.

            ""This Book Is Gay," a book with sections that teach and advise kids about anal sex, oral sex, and hookup apps, is available to be checked out by students at Pierce Middle School in Tampa, Florida."

            That book has no place with any public school and especially not middle schoolers. No student gay or straight needs a how to book, especially one with hookup apps.

              I am totally serious, if I would have given this book to a say a boy scout in Lucas’ troop, I would have been arrested and likely ended up on a sex offender list. Why shouldn’t this teacher?

                20 years ago, yes. Today you would be lionized for your acceptance of diversity.

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  I read excerpts, and you know what? Great decision.

                  Please love yourself.
