Talk about an anti-science curriculum.
The city council of large English city Brighton & Hove — population almost 300,000 — has issued new sex-education guidelines instructing teachers to tell students as young as eight that boys can have periods just the same as girls.
Per the guidance, bins used for “time-of-the-month” waste products will also be installed in male bathrooms on school premises.
“Menstruation must be inclusive of all genders,” the authority ruled.
There has been significant pushback against the new guidelines. For instance, Tory MP David Davies said “Learning about periods is already a difficult subject for children that age, so to throw in the idea girls who believe they are boys also have periods will leave them completely confused.”
