Showing Original Post only (View all)UC Berkeley exposes elementary kids to giant penis, 'pin-the-tail on the anus' game [View all]
Advance warning: the source of this story is the right wing Campus Reform, a sleazy, dishonest right wing outfit devoted to complaining about any foreign, unorthodox idea on the college campus that hurts a fundie conservative's feelings. So instead of giving these a-holes any more traffic i've archived the site using Archive.is, link is here:
A group of elementary and middle school students touring University of California - Berkeley last week were exposed to a man in a giant penis costume and school-sponsored sex games.
"All day long, little kids were prancing by the dental dam demonstrations, sex-themed games of chance, and the guy in the penis suit," student Claire Chiara said in an interview with Campus Reform Thursday.
The children were led through the campus quad while Berkeley students were playing pin-the-tail on the anus and tossing condoms through holes on a poster board meant to represent vaginas and anuses.
There was also a man dressed as a giant penis handing out condoms, although he was not permitted to hand them to the children.

now the only media outlets giving this attention are the typical clique of right wing blogs. But Wonkette gave this story a mention in a humor article.
basically this story is a paragraph long complaint about children being exposed to...seeeeeeex. C'mon their argument is basically, "these kids are scarred for life and are going to turn into STD-carrying harlots!" do these right wing morons not understand that learning about sex is not the same as watching pornography?
fuck this country. Americans are so illogical with it. every vice they fear so much whether it be sex or alcohol they are too afraid to discuss it openly with their kids...and then they wonder why kids grow up not knowing what healthy sexuality is or how to drink responsibly.

I don't think it's right to expect college students to be appropriate for children.

College kids doing typical college stuff on a college campus are not the problem in this story

Lots of people in CA don't know enough about Berkeley to know that -- especially first generation

It could just as well be the pro-life group with their graphic dismembered fetus pics 5 feet high

Plus the kids' "trauma" would be directly related to how the adult chaperones reacted.

Homo or hetero, sexual things to which kids are exposed should be age appropriate.
