      Fired.

      Catseye, he was just teaching the curriculum, he did not create the assignment.

        Sexual behavior is not what we send kids to learn.

          George's article had this: "The assignment reads: 'For those students who were absent, you will write a short story of a paragraph or two. This story is a sexual fantasy that will have NO penetration of any kind or oral sex (no way of passing an STI).

          "Teacher Kirk Miller gave students the assignment via Canvas, . . . and also asked them to choose three items, such as candles, massage oil, feathers and flavoured syrup, to use in their stories."

            Not to mention it’s discriminatory- what about those of us who can’t show affection without sexual intercourse?

            Only non-witches get due process.

              Seriously. Why not just write a story about kissing your sister?

                Yes, it was a makeup assignment, but that assignment is still part of the curriculum. Seriously. Read up about OWL. The Unitarian Church is stating that it was an out of date book and the teacher wasn’t trained on how to present the material, but that sounds like CYA to me.

                  As a side note, it's funny how LoTT gets vilified for these tweets. All she does is post things that are factual - with screenshots, videos and retweets. Look at her interaction with AOC last week.

                    I understand some healthy skepticism, but this stuff is being fought out in schoolboards across the nation. I live in the buckle of the Bible Belt and we had groomers decrying the removal of some books from school libraries.

                    They got heard and then they were ignored. As parents said...You want your child to wallow in crap, buy it for them yourselves.

                      Okay, this is confusing . . . the quote you're responding to here is what I posted to answer a point Lufin made believing I had misunderstood something. A clarification IOW. I wasn't making any point of my own.

                      Might not be worth clarifying.
