New Jersey Adopts Mandated LGBTQ-Inclusive Planned Parenthood Sex Ed Standards

Last week, the New Jersey State Board of Education adopted the new Student Learning Standards for Comprehensive Health and Physical Education. The board has been working closely with the LGBTQ activists Garden State Equality and Planned Parenthood to develop the new standards. The updated curriculum’s expanded topics include sex education, LGBTQ identities and consent.
 
Announcement of the new standards was framed in relation to national events surrounding the death of George Floyd, with both activist groups stating, “As our nation reckons with the systemic racism and violence against Black communities that is a part of all of our institutions, including our education systems, we take pause today to consider how sex education is an equity issue.”
 
Conservative groups argue that positioning sexual education within school systems as an “equity issue” is an attempt by Planned Parenthood and Garden State Equality to silence their sexualized agenda for youth by capitalizing on the injustices of other populations. Monica Cline, founder of It Takes a Family, stated, “I’m not sure if it’s gross denial, ignorance or willful oppression on the part of the counterfeit sexual freedom ideologues, but the systematic sexualization and objectification of our children is criminal.”
