I'll admit that the dad there seems like a homophobe.  But he did find some gems that are highly questionable in appropriateness.

I don't think one unhinged homophobe should get to set policy for what everyone else's kids can read.

That's the thing though, the groomers automatically label anyone that has a problem with inappropriate material for minors, as homophobes, etc.

Zero self-awareness here, may god have mercy on your soul.

A school principal in Tallahassee, Florida, has been fired following parental complaints about a lesson on Michelangelo’s marble masterpiece David (1501-04), which was deemed “pornographic” by one aggrieved parent.

The now-former principal, Hope Carrasquilla, informed the Huffington Post that, due to a “series of miscommunications”, a customary letter informing parents of students at Tallahassee Classical School about this feature of the sixth-grade art history curriculum was not sent out, further contributing to parents’ outrage. One parent felt “point-blank upset”, Carrasquilla told HuffPost, and “felt her child should not be viewing” the iconic 16th-century exemplar of Renaissance sculpture, which depicts a figure from the Old Testament's Book of Samuel.

According to the Tallahassee Democrat, Tallahassee Classical School, a charter school in Florida's state capital, has now lost three principals since it opened in 2020. Carasquilla had worked there for less than a year. The school's “classical education curriculum model" is an increasingly popular pedagogical model in Florida that advocates a return to the foundational tenets of Western civilisation. The school is affiliated with Hillsdale College, a conservative Christian institution that has sought to “fight leftist academics” by expanding into charter school fundraising and implementation.

Personally i have no issue with David, but probably want to notify parents of grade 6 kids before displaying dinky doos in class.

Would this be ok if it were Muslim parents that had complained?

To me it's weird the same conservatives who complain about kids being coddled, participation trophies, etc etc are the same ones freaking out over pictures of marble wieners or oblique references to s-e-x in books.

It's weird that the same people who want to coddle teens from exams and children from cartoons about police-dogs have no issue exposing pre-teen children to material featuring f-bombs, condoms, sexual references, stone penises, and drag queens, and exposing teenage students to comics featuring dildo blowjobs and **** sex scenes.

Should parents of pre-teen children have informed consent about exposure to nudity/sex materials or not?  Parents typically have to give consent before sex ed in elementary schools, I see no reason not to do it in these cases.  Parents of children should decide these things, not woke educators.

Do I think that principal should be fired?  I dunno, not really.  Did they screw up because they didn't send out consent forms as was usually done?  Sure.

Okay Shady 2.0. It's telling that you have to straight up lie about this stuff.

You should definitely be making these decisions for other parents and kids.

You're the one who thinks individual parents should get veto power over what gets taught and by whom, not me.

IDK I want teachers to focus on teaching and not spending their time worrying about whether some crank is going throw a fit and get them shitcanned because their 12-year-old saw a picture of a little marble **** on one of the Western world's most famous artworks.

Also I love the notion that this story is about some woke administrator when it was at a Jesus freak charter school and the class was art history.

I love how this latest example of “cancel culture” is from a private Christian school.  😂

Informed consent is the key.  Especially nowadays, when some of the material in public schools is literally x-rated.
