Parents of children in Manitoba, Canada have expressed concern after a school sent home boys in the 10th grade (15-16 years of age) with condoms, wooden penises and flip books containing explicit illustrations of men having gay sex, according to a report.
Reduxx and The Publica reports that that materials were distributed among teenage pupils by Virden Collegiate Institute as part “sex education” classes. In a Facebook post, one parent, Janine Stephanie Penner, described the materials, noting that her son received a “gay porn graphic flip book at school as a method of learning how to use condoms and in addition, received 15 condoms and a wooden pecker for practice.”
The wooden penis is a condom demonstration aid, but obviously could serve another purpose.
The report notes:
The flip-book Penner’s son was given is titled “Who’s Got The Condom?” and a digital copy of the book reveals it is 53-pages long and was created in collaboration with CATIE — Canada’s leading HIV and Hepatitis C information charity — as well as Youth2O and “2-Spirited People of the First Nations.”
On the front of the book, a young, slim man can be seen perched over the hips of an older, larger man in what appears to be an Indigenous-style tent. On both the front cover and a page photographed by Penner, the older man is wearing a condom, with the younger man in the process of engaging in sexual activity with him.
The PDF of the flip book is here. It basically shows one guy masturbating the other, putting on a condom, and then the pair having gay sex. There is no description or words in the book.
“Y’all, they don’t even hide this anymore,” Penner wrote, adding “Robbing our children and seducing their minds. We need to push back… This is what needs to be protested.” There is a lot to unpack given the First Nations thing, but let's not go down that road.
Is this acceptable material to give to teenage kids? Was there any material supplied depicting straight sex between men and women? You know, the kind that produces babies and furthers the human race? Shouldn’t that be mentioned at least? Other parents took to Facebook and X, with some noting that their children, some as young as 14, had been given the same materials at other schools in Canada.
