Social justice warriors are branching out from colleges to elementary schools with the a new book for eight to ten year olds called Sex is a Funny Word.
According to Buzzfeed, the book is supposed to be diverse and inclusionary for all kids to read and find representation in a book about their bodies. It also promotes liberal values, including saying that gender isn’t binary, why adults shouldn’t avoid conversations about sex in front of children, what social justice entails, and what consent means when being touched.
In one chapter the book discusses private parts, which the author calls them “middle parts,” because there is nothing bad with those areas of the body.
It tells kids to question what parts of their body should be covered and what should be shown.
Another part of the book called “Boys, Girls, All of Us” tells kids there’s not just two genders.
“Only boys and girls? What about the rest of us?” asked on character named Zai.
“Excellent question, Zai. If everybody is different how could there only be two kinds of people?” another character says.
After all, liberals are always telling everyone that gender is learned and not binary. Unless if you’re transgender — then you’re born with male or female brain. The rest of us, though, are slaves to social constructs.
In the comment section of Amazon, one reader who bought the book for their child said that questioning their gender could have detrimental effects on the child.
“My concern with this book deals with the assumption that although our bodies tell us that at birth we are either male or female based on our anatomy, time will either validate or refute that,” Diane R wrote. “This produces unnecessary questions and doubts at a confusing time in a child’s development suggesting that one’s sexual development is a mystery or choice that can only be solved with time and experience (or even worse with experiments).”
The book also tries to lay the groundwork for “equality” at an early age by discussing justice.
“Justice is fairness only bigger,” the book reads. “Justice means working together so that everyone can share in the good and the hard parts of living. Justice means that every person and every body matters.”
In a conversation “crushes,” characters discuss their gender neutral crushes to their same-sex parents — something almost no child can find relatable.
This book asks children to act like adults and question the fundamentals of their body at an early age. If that sounds dangerous or like bad parenting, it’s because this book is not about helping children feel whole — it’s about promoting the ideology of broken adults.
